  • Could Be Great

    I just downloaded this app because I bought a MH German language book that referred it to me. But I'm already discouraged with it because the flash cards which I was really excited to use, have no way to reset them. As you scroll through them you're supposed to tap a check mark, an X or a question mark depending on whether or not you know the word on the card. Before I knew that what the icons were for, I had tapped each of them without really testing myself. The only way to reset them is to delete the app and download it again.

  • Errors etc

    Errors seem to be a critical issue. Similar to other users, I picked up on a very simple error in the first quiz I opened. Not sure how I could trust a language learning app that makes rookie mistakes.

    The quiz/flash card functionality is basic but workable (about what you would expect for a free add-on app). Though if you click on a quiz to review, Progress automatically gets reset to 0%, which is odd behavior.

    Ultimately, this is an all-purpose app that doesn’t always fit the specific book content very well. Sometimes the quizzes and flashcards aren’t really set up to teach anything meaningful, though some are useful. But it’s got errors, and for that reason I’m out.

  • False Advertising on boom

    This app is supposed to work for “Spanish for the Rest of Us” but it’s not one of the books on the app. Glad I got the book from my library and didn’t purchase it.
  • Good but could be better

    I want to use this app in conjunction with the book for teaching private lessons in ESL. While the material is decent, there is no way to slow the audio for those who are easily frustrated in grasping and repeating the sounds. That would be a big plus.
  • Underrated App !!

    This app is underrated. Really. The books need improvement but the app is good. I especially love the Flashcards. The books are great but the ebooks need to have improved formatting. Some of the text in these books is too tiny to see. It’s ridiculous. But I’m giving this app five stars for its purpose and use. I’m glad to have it. And I appreciate it very much. Thanks. Please keep up the good work. You have a happy customer here!

  • Language Lab

    I downloaded the app but the book I’m looking for is not included. The book is entitled “Spanish for the rest of us” and displays the language lab logo on the book and refers to it in several places as a source of reference. Please help.
  • French demystified

    There is an error 8 getting acquainted

    Track 21 oral practice card 11 of 12 it reads 10 again
  • Half baked

    The book (Spanish conversation) is excellent and luckily the app is only really needed to be able to hear the conversations, as the flash cards are very poor - the quiz for example gives several identical possible answers in the multiple choice but only one is correct!
  • Doesn’t have my particular book

    Although I bought Spanish for the rest of us book and it refers me to the app there’s no audio or lessons on the app for it. What a letdown
  • Beyond Awesome

    This is an absolutely terrific app and an unbelievable amount of information covering so much .. quizzes are great ! it’s really amazing.
