  • Irritating.

    It's great that I can do my homework on my phone instead of pulling out my laptop. It's definitely a nice and easy way to get it done quick. However, the big problem is that if I'm in the in the middle of a homework piece and accidentally close the app, when I pull it back on it'll come up with an unremovable pop up of "blah, all incorrect answers will be remembered" yet I can't continue doing anything at all with the app. It's horrible and even re-downloading the app does absolutely nothing. Truly irritating...

  • Crashes

    I tried to do my homework on my phone and when I downloaded the app it comes up with network error and I have a really good wifi and my wifi worked at the time of me opening the app but it still said network error and now I have a detention after school because of this
  • Massive glitch!

    Leaving a test causes it to say you are currently in a test and all right answers will be forgotten. You can't close this window. I have removed it from app switcher then restarted. It is fixed, but this is very annoying.
    Overall good app, apart from minor aesthetic issues.
  • I like it

    At first I wasn't a big fan but now I like it. The only frustrating thing is that you have to start all over again when you get one wrong, though I guess it's only helping us learn.
  • Good but...

    It's a quite good app and helps me learn French but a lot of things need fixing
    A) the style of quiz isn't very good - short term instead of long term
    B) if I make one tiny mistake I have to do it all again which is very annoying and takes a lot of time
    C) for some reason the competitions never show up on the app and I have to log into the website

  • So easy to screw up!

    I do homework on this and I have to hold my iPad vertically due to this app. That makes the keyboard tiny and extremely easy to click go. This then means that you get the question wrong and have to complete all the questions not remaining, THEN redo the failed question, THEN restart.

    Make a option for easy restarts not some complete the rest and then restart then all or if you quit your fails will be remembered. It's so annoying when you miss click and have to spend 2 minutes trying to do it again. It's even harder in a different language!

  • It's a great app!!

    It's so fun and let's me learn languages easily but for some reason it won't let me go on it says there is something wrong with my connection, even though my internet is on and I should contact someone about this I have a Spanish test tomorrow and I need to revise!!
  • Awesome!

    This is a really good app, it really helps me with learning Latin! The scoreboard is really good because everyone wants the highest score and so they use it more which makes there Latin (or whatever language) improve.
  • PLEASE

    This is a really great idea, a nice way of making it fun to learn vocab, and the app means you don't have to sign in every time. The recent update for assignments is useful also.

    However, a few small, easily reparable details mean that I would rather throw my iPad across the room than use the app, for starters the app is forced into portrait mode, so the keyboard is tiny and results in stupid little spelling mistakes that result in having to redo the entire test, even though you already know how to spell the words. This is a cause of constant frustration to me.

    Equally irritating is the composite leaderboard. my classmates eagerly log on to access the leaderboard, so that they can find out how they are doing. However, a few of my fellow classmates, as well as myself, find that when we try to open the scoreboard, even when we have a high amount of storage, it will not open.

    Also, I find that the style of test is only really a short term memory test, rather than long term, which vocab should be.

    Please fix these problems, and you can have an extra three stars from me.

  • Homework

    They've made it a lot easier but stop making us redo the test when we have one incorrect answer and then we have to do it again. Also when we leave let us continue from where we left of and not just forget the correct answers and not save the wrong ones! It takes the mick
