Just began using the app, and have some thoughts!
Overall, I like the app so far because of how readily available you can ask questions with the AI mentor. It really makes you feel you have a real mentor guiding you, which is nice. Once thing I do not like as much, however, is just how busy the screen is. I just began java and I am a very easily distracted reader so it is a bit difficult to concentrate on what i am reading with all the buttons on the screen. The progress bar on top when you scroll down is a little distracting too. Maybe some of the buttons could be accessed by pressing just one button first, so that the screen has less things on it? Also the number of views at the top seems unnecessary. But with all that said, I like this app much more than other coding apps because of how in depth it is. So, I like it more than I dislike all the busy stuff on the screen. I’m excited to learn more about Java!

Thank you for your review, we appreciate the feedback. Happy Java ☕ learning! :)
Very simple to understand and learn at your pace
No need to rush learning something new but if needed you can learn as fast or as slow as you want and the rest is up to you. Taking notes helps for memory retention so just copy and paste the summaries of each lesson to review or refresh on something you may have forgiven or missed. I’ll be sure to update the system to access the playground to further my knowledge but for now the basic free program will work.

Unusable and Horrible Customer Support
I paid for the premium membership for a year.
Unable to log in to the browser version of Enki, as its website tells me my paid annual account “is not found.” Ridiculous.
I reached out to support multiple times regarding the incident but received absolutely no response from Enki’s team. It’s clear they don’t care about the users, especially not after they got their money. Disappointing. Stay away as there are more than better coding education services out there with an actual customer support team unlike Enki.

Hi AC tran, we're sorry to hear this. Our app and browser versions are separate products which is likely the cause of this. Please could you email me at tom@enki.com so I can assist directly?
Your session has ended
With this latest version when I launch the app it says that my session has ended and that I’ve been logged out. And there’s nothing else I can do; there is nowhere on the screen that I can touch or pinch or swipe to get off of this error message. I have an iPhone SE third edition, which means the screen is slightly smaller than the current trend to have larger iPhone screens. Unfortunately it seems more and more app developers are overlooking that slight difference in screen size and are putting crucial buttons just outside the reach of an iPhone SE screen. I have tried force quitting the app and relaunching, but I still end up on the same error message that says my session has ended and then I am logged out.

Hi Arduous, we're very sorry to hear this. Please could you email me at tom@enki.com with a screen recording showing this issue? If you could also confirm your iOS version and app version we'll look at this right away for you. Update: Just checking you saw our response here. Would love to hear from you so we can get this resolved!
Great app
The app is very good. I’m learning Java and the app has a lot of stuff to do. The education is great. And you can interact more with friends, family and other people.Very good app for Java learners and programmers. Bad thing is that Java updates add new features to Java and Enki doesn’t add the new features in the learning. Great programming app with a few bad things. Very good app I’ve ever seen.

An amazing app for starters
The only annoying thing is that running the code takes 8~ seconds compared to other app that will do it instantly but other than that this is a fantastic app
Great app!
"Enki is an exceptional app for learning that has truly exceeded my expectations. With its comprehensive curriculum and interactive approach, I've gained knowledge equivalent to that of a $20,000 university degree, if not more. The bite-sized lessons and engaging exercises make learning enjoyable and efficient. If you're looking to enhance your skills or expand your knowledge base, Enki is definitely worth a try. Highly recommended!"

Thank you so much, Sirin!
Wish it gave certificates
I love this app, it’s probably the best in its category. However I wish it gave certificates for finishing a skill, I’d even pay for the full version if it gave a certificate. Mimo does this, and they shouldn’t- because it’s a terrible education and you don’t actually learn anything lol. This app is far more robust and a certificate would feel more meaningful. (App certificates probably don’t count for anything in the long run, but it’s satisfying to receive one regardless. )

Information, great paced which you decide.
Highly recommended due to wide variety of different information available. Forgiving when wrong but not discouraging. Many useful topics that will be key in this field in the future as well as many others. Certified. As well as an overall fantastic app. 10/10. My only wish is that more apps and courses took a page from Enki to see how it works when you get it right.

User friendly and effective!
Enki mobile app has been a game-changer for my Python learning experience. The interactive lessons are beginner-friendly and help solidify concepts effortlessly. The daily challenges are a fun way to practice and apply what I've learned. The app's sleek design makes navigation easy, and the personalized progress tracking keeps me motivated. Highly recommend for beginners and advanced programmers.
