User reviews

The app I’ve been waiting for 🤩

My husband is Samoan and we want to raise our kids speaking the language. I’ve been trying to learn Samoan for 4 years and haven’t made much progress with any of the apps or books I’ve been using. I stumbled on this app a few days ago and I’m already making more progress with this app than I have any other way trying to learn. It’s a very easy and engaging format and is making it much easier to learn. I look forward to each lesson every day.

Heuy Williewizard2, sorry bout that, we might look at adding this in the future later maybe.

It is so hard to work with

So first of all, you sonions, listen up, it’s very good, you can learn about anything. Just HERES the thing, you have a certain amount of lives, 6. If you fail 6 times on one lesson, you cannot restart, you have to wait till the next day unless you pay for more or doma free trial. In your first lesson, it doesn’t show you anything, it just hits you with “hello.” I’m talking on the Māori one but it’s the same with every single one, so if you don’t know ANY of that language (I do know some,) then you cannot learn it without guessing if you don’t wanna serah it up on everywhere, THE FIRST LESSON BY THE WAY, so it’s very hard to work with and very irritating, FIX THIS OR AT LEAST TELL IT IN THE DESCRIPTION NOT FOR BEGINNERS!

We gotchu!!

Asalei

It had a good start but it goes way too fast, the jump from the first lesson to the second was crazy. If you could start with simple words or phrases first and gradually excell then I’d download again.

Response from developer

Thank you for your review and could you tell us what language was it? and we'll jump on this asap!
