### 4/5 — Can’t report issues

*2026-03-02, version 2.80*

I’m using it to learn. I wish there was a way to report issues though. Sometimes I can tell that the right answer isn’t there. So I ask my husband to confirm and he agrees. But there’s no way to report the grammatical issues.

### 4/5 — Tres bonne application mais…

*2026-01-12, version 2.75*

Depuis la dernière maj je reste bloqué à la page de chargement, et impossible de le signaler aux développeurs à part par ici…
À bon entendeur..

### 3/5 — Critical bug

*2026-01-11, version 2.75*

For 2 days now, the application is stuck on the splash screen, not matter the devis (iPhone, iPad, MacBook. Please fix it! 
Even the app has some bugs the correct answer, lessons are great and we truly learn Armenian with this app.

### 3/5 — The application has stopped working since yesterday.

*2026-01-11, version 2.75*

The screen remains purple and won't load any more. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling, but nothing changed.

### 4/5 — Все супер кроме…

*2025-11-20, version 2.23*

Когда ставишь рус-арм язык. То озвучка слов с словаря не происходит

### 3/5 — Helpful & unstable

*2025-08-22, version 2.23*

Was so excited to learn Armenian before I wed my Armenian fiancée! This app was perfect and was so helpful up until the past 4 days. It’s been stuck loading on the homepage and is not working. Please fix this!!!!

### 4/5 — Needs some tweaks but generally useful

*2025-08-03, version 2.23*

This is a helpful resource that fills a gap in learning the spoken language. They need to check the English though because about 25% of the time there are constructions that just wouldn’t be used, e.g. At that time when I was in the cafe — natural English: at the time when I was in the cafe. Also, some of the versions in Armenian have really weird word order and some correct ones are rejected. I would appreciate a module on reading capital letters too. It is a bit haphazard on introducing vocab too — short sentences with easy words mixed with long sentences with polysyllabic words! But many thanks for creating it!

### 2/5 — Не стабильная работа приложения

*2025-05-16, version 2.23*

Долго запускается приложение, не работает произношение в разделе словарь, и нельзя там же зажать кнопку для собственного произношения, хотя она там имеется, но НЕ функционирует. 
Большая просьба устранить тех. ошибки.

### 4/5 — Супер

*2025-04-19, version 2.23*

Отличное приложение, спасибо большое, но последние два дня не открывает и не работает, исправьте, пожалуйста.

### 2/5 — Some Answers are just wrong

*2025-04-03, version 2.23*

Props for being one of the only free resources I’ve found to learn Armenian. Some of the English translations are completely out of order. It seems primarily in the module review sections. For instance, in one of them.
“Yes el, shnorak’alutyun”
It should be “me too thank you”, and the correct answer according to the app is “too thank me you”.

### 3/5 — Difficult, as a beginner

*2025-03-20, version 2.23*

The first five or so units were great. It was easy for me to remember vocabulary and grammar and the units were a nice introduction to Eastern Armenian for someone like me who knows nothing. However, once I reached “Directions and Indications,” I felt like tons of vocabulary was being thrown at me at rapid speeds at the beginning of each lesson. I was then forced to put everything together and translate long, complicated sentences with words I hadn’t yet learned. I really wish the lessons spent a little more time teaching vocabulary and giving you time to practice with new words. This could be fixed by just dividing one unit into more lessons to increase the depth of each and provide an easier transition from learning to applying for beginners like me. Additionally, I agree with many other reviews in that there should be a better way to learn the alphabet. I like that it is listed in each unit, but just as there is a different section of the app that serves as a dictionary, there could be a section where users can learn how to write the alphabet and identify each letter by sound; you can take inspiration from Duolingo’s method of teaching users how to write in Arabic, Japanese, or Chinese. Finally, and of least importance, the app often takes a while to load. It would be nice if that could be improved in the future. I hope you take all my suggestions to heart, especially since I am enchanted by this language and desperate to learn it. 
Best regards, 
A.J.M.

### 4/5 — why does it happen

*2025-03-05, version 2.23*

im sorry but i often get logged out why? please can someone explain why this happens

### 4/5 — Improvement necessary

*2024-11-19, version 2.23*

I am grateful that people Built this App and it definetly helped me a Lot.

But in Reality this App needs a Lot of approvement to reach even more people.

1. Reduce initial loading time.

2. false Answers confuse the Learning process

Ideas to make this App fantastic:

1. the vocabulary section is Impression but it is just an accumulation of words.
Make it into a system where you can mark words and start weekly vocabulary Tests maybe. Sort of Like Anki Card Management.

2. Include grammar lessons to really deepen the Students logic for the Language

### 3/5 — App unusable

*2024-11-03, version 2.23*

There is a loading screen whenever open the app that never lets me click into any of the lessons. Plz fix. Other than that 5 stars

### 4/5 — Okay

*2024-10-08, version 2.23*

I really like this app. I’ve been waiting for this, but I would like to learn WESTERN Armenian.. will that be coming soon??

### 5/5 — Love all the changes!

*2024-09-10, version 2.23*

So happy to be following this app, it gets better with every updates!
Though I’m having issues since updating the app, I used it a bit and now it won’t load…

### 1/5 — For information 5 stars, for design 0 stars :(

*2026-04-05, version 2.80*

I am using this app on my iPad. So, the information is very interesting but you should to make the design more readable: the armenian letters are specific and i needed to make them bigger , but  because of the windows where they are located I could not see the entire text . Ipad has so big and beautiful screen and you have to make the design of your app to use it entirely no only a small part. On big screen very small text.

### 1/5 — Lesson loading

*2026-02-01, version 2.80*

This is the best app for learning Armenian; however, it has many bugs. I’ve mostly adapted to them, but after the latest update, some lessons no longer load. Please address this issue.

### 1/5 — Great app overall, but…

*2025-12-05, version 2.75*

I would love to give this app 5 stars, but it still suffers from the same bugs other reviewers have noted for 5+ years - problems with answers to random questions (incorrect word order, missing answers, etc), preventing progress due to inability to complete modules.

### 1/5 — I don't recommend it

*2025-10-19, version 2.23*

в приложении масса ошибок. это касается и самой работы приложения и его содержания. Так как я знаю грамматику армянского языка, я вижу эти ошибки. для новичков-не рекомендую совсем. Ошибки есть в произношении слов, в порядке слов при составлении словосочетаний/предложений.  особенно выбесило, что армянское слово «չարժե» оно перевело как «are you welcome», когда оно переводится как: «не стоит/не за что». 

There are a lot of errors in the application. This applies to both the operation of the application and its content. Since I know the grammar of the Armenian language, I see mistakes. but I don't recommend it for beginners

### 1/5 — bug

*2024-07-17, version 2.22*

the app freezes when I try to open it. I have to uninstall and reinstall again to use it.

### 1/5 — great potential

*2023-09-23, version 2.17*

the most recent update did not fix the syntax/broken answer issue, app is still almost unusable :(
it was so good before this

### 1/5 — Good app, but ONE BIG issue

*2023-09-09, version 2.16*

I first downloaded this app four years ago and it worked fine. But now, it takes forever to load and worst, cannot get past the third section, Nouns and Adjectives. After the second or third example, it turns off. This has happened on every of several attempts. I tried re-booting my phone, deleting the app and then reinstalling it. Nothing works. Too bad, it had such potential. Bye Bye.

### 1/5 — Can’t register.

*2023-06-21, version 2.15*

Entered all the information for registration by email, tapped on the “register” button, it briefly changes to  “loading”, but then returns to “register” with no error messages to indicate what went wrong.  Nothing sent to email and no alternative web registration.  On iPhone.

### 1/5 — Restarting the app caused modules to appear

*2023-06-10, version 2.15*

I have selected another tab earlier, and the modules showed empty. So, make this room so when I select another tab and get back to the modules tab, it will take you back to the previous module, for example if it's feelings, then you get that module

### 1/5 — Bad app

*2023-06-06, version 2.15*

I think that AYOlingo is a bad app because you have to already know Arminian and especially for only one language app I would make it able to choose if you want learn straight from the beginning or not. I do not know any Arminian only a few words and I only know how to spell one.

### 5/5 — Perfect for learning Armenian

*2026-01-07, version 2.75*

I’ve been using this app for a while and I really love it. It was so hard to find good apps for learning Armenian, but this helps me a lot. Even though I’m still a beginner, I can learn easily step by step. In each module, there’s normally 4-8 lessons. Also there’s like a dictionary/translator as well. So useful and perfect to learn this language.

### 5/5 — Amazing!

### 5/5 — App crashed during my streak

*2025-04-22, version 2.23*

### 5/5 — Help!

*2025-04-21, version 2.23*
