### 3/5 — не работает

*2026-08-17*

не идет дальше шага «подбираем персональный план»

### 2/5 — Will not renew

*2026-08-07, version 3.9.17*

Learning Polish but cannot get past “The Rain” on the Journey Route on my phone or IPad. Contacted the company several times and they are unable to fix the problem. It’s too bad, I like this app.

### 2/5 — Too many bugs

*2026-08-06, version 3.9.17*

This system is impossible to use on a Mac. It just does not recognize a user from the app and keeps trying to sell you a membership you already have

### 2/5 — Great App, But Premium Stopped Working

*2026-07-22, version 3.9.16*

I absolutely loved this app. I purchased the yearly Premium subscription and used it every single day. It quickly became one of my favorite language learning apps, and I was genuinely impressed with it.

Unfortunately, my Premium access suddenly disappeared even though my Apple subscription is still active until May 2027. The app keeps asking me to subscribe again, and “Restore Purchases” doesn’t work.

I’ve been emailing support since July 7 and haven’t received a single response. It’s been over two weeks, and I have no idea what’s going on. I’m very disappointed because I paid for a full year and simply want access to the subscription I already purchased.

Please respond and help resolve this issue.

### 3/5 — Good content, poor UI, ill-thought out learning tools

*2026-06-20, version 3.9.13*

The app is worth it for having access to graded level appropriate texts with clear audio, but it suffers from poor design, and learning tools that don’t really help with learning. It is very hard to re-listen to the sentence you just heard. The flashcard system is very poorly designed. The quizzes don’t really test language skills, but memory for trivial detail details. And numerous other small issues. Still, so far I find it worth it for the core content, though I feel frustrated every time I use the app.

### 4/5 — 4 Stars for a Good App that Could Be Great

*2026-06-15*

The main purpose of this app receives 5 stars. It provides cultural stories and news stories for people to read. You can also have a story created for you based on your competency level, your desired length of story, and your preference for fiction or non fiction. You have the option to read it to yourself or have the app read it to you at your chosen speed in your target language. You can look up words you don’t know to get the definition and to save it to your glossary. You can also record yourself saying the word. 

Now to the 3 star downsides of the app. The app doesn’t work completely. There are supposed to be a vocab matching game where you can practice matching words between languages for that story. It opens to a blank screen. It has never worked. There is also no mechanism for spaced repetition of vocabulary that they add or you add yourself. This app would be amazing if they implemented a vocabulary review section like on the Busuu language app where it lists all the vocabulary and has sections for strong and weak vocabulary that you can choose to review so that you don’t forget with time. There’s also a bug where sometimes when you had a word to
the glossary that it adds multiple cards of the same word. The app is also a little clunky for language learners who are studying more than one language, especially for the glossary. It doesn’t always keep the languages straight. Also, when you record yourself there is no feedback as to the accuracy of what you’re saying. Some of these are bugs and some are ways they could improve to make a good app great. The stories are already great. Just build up the app infrastructure around them to be just as great.

**Developer response:** Thank you for your detailed feedback! We're sorry to hear you've experienced these issues. If possible, please send us videos or screenshots of the bugs you reported to feedback@beelinguapp.com, especially the vocabulary matching game showing a blank screen and the duplicate glossary entries. This will help us investigate and resolve them more quickly. We're also actively working on improving both the vocabulary section and the speaking practice experience and feedback like yours is incredibly valuable.

### 2/5 — Falls short for Greek.

*2026-05-25, version 3.9.12*

Sample content was extremely limited. I took a leap of faith and bought the year but so far am not all that impressed. I was intrigued by the reading angle and the promise of music. I could not find any music in Greek, which is why I got this app. I like the idea of learning via news snippets and the folk tales but these are very dry/ need to be supported with pictures and more audio samples during the vocabulary matchups, and when you select a final answer if you are correct it should show your answer with the equivalent in your native language so you can actually learn the sentences better. I will stick around to see if improves because it is hard to find decent language learning content in Greek and I like the concept. Not overly impressed at all though. It could be a decent supplement to another app but I doubt you could start as an absolute beginner with this app, you need more of a foundation to make this work.

### 2/5 — Quirky

*2026-04-10, version 3.9.11*

I like this app but it is quirky. It won’t let me read the next story due to a technical issue. The app has been updated on my tablet too. I tried contacting help about the issue but I haven’t heard back. My renewal date is next week and I may have to cancel it if my problem is not resolved.

### 3/5 — Mehr Auswahl fürs kostenlose lernen

*2026-04-10, version 3.9.11*

Ich finde diese App toll, aber das man nicht mal den Lernpass machen kann ist schade die Bibliothek klappt oft nicht und ich wünschte die App würde kostenlos auch ein lern program habe und nicht nur mit Bezahlung die App ha ich jetzt deinstalliert weil es wirklich nicht viel gab für mich zum lernen, danke trotzdem das ihr es probiert mit dem kostenlosen lernen, vielleicht wie Duolingo es macht für die Kostenlose Version

### 3/5 — Misleading

*2026-04-07, version 3.9.11*

I have to install this app on two different devices in order to learn true languages at once.

Please add a pause between pages when reading with a voice. It’s very hard to catch the first sentence when the page has not flipped yet.

—— original review
I subscribed because I’m learning two languages. However, the apps only allows one language at a time, even though it claims to unlock all languages.

Also, it will be helpful to have a better dictionary listing the infinitive form instead of whatever in the article. 

I enjoy the app, but I think it has room for improvement.

### 2/5 — Full AI Content - worth $24 a year

*2026-03-28, version 3.9.11*

- The stories are AI generated. The way they use the language doesn’t feel natural.
- Every story I finish I get congratulated for finishing 0/1 daily stories. 
- Profile trackers and badges are boring and certainly don’t motivate me. 
- The “games” are basically one question quizzes. 
- I like quickly grabbing my phone and having leveled content to read. 
- if I had to pay full price, I wouldn’t.

### 1/5 — Création de plan et de compte non fonctionnel

*2026-03-23*

Bonjour, je voulais utiliser cette application avec impatience mais c’est impossible car celle ci ne me permet pas de créer de plan ni même de compte, donc je ne peux pas m’en servir et c’est vraiment dommage

### 4/5 — Different voices

*2026-03-17*

I would love to see different voices added to the German narrator. Currently the only one is pretty hard on the ears. Otherwise fantastic app

**Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback! We will definitely take it into account. We're glad to hear you're enjoying the app overall, and we appreciate your suggestion about adding more German narrator voices.

### 3/5 — Misleading

*2026-03-11, version 3.9.9*

I subscribed because I’m learning two languages. However, the apps only allows one language at a time, even though it claims to unlock all languages.

Also, it will be helpful to have a better dictionary listing the infinitive form instead of whatever in the article. 

I enjoy the app, but I think it has room for improvement.

### 1/5 — Dont like it

*2026-03-05, version 3.9.9*

Its literally just you reading something and theres english and Tagalog and you just read like its not helping me at all at this point i rather just wait for duolingo to come out with Tagalog because these apps are not very good

### 1/5 — Nice concept; App doesn’t work

*2026-02-25, version 3.9.8*

I’ve tried to start using Beelinguapp, but it just gets frozen in a “Creating Your Custom Language Adventure” Screen. You know… a spinnt thing spinning and that’s it. No matter how long I leave it spinning with the app open, or closing or reopening it… Beelinguapp doesn’t seem to work.

### 2/5 — Quirky

*2026-02-23, version 3.9.7*

I like this app but it is quirky. It won’t let me read the next story due to a technical issue. The app has been updated on my tablet too. I tried contacting help about the issue but I haven’t heard back. My renewal date is next week and I may have to cancel it if my problem is not resolved.

### 1/5 — Won’t delete my account

*2026-08-05, version 3.9.17*

I tried it out and it doesn’t offer traditional Chinese characters, so I tried to delete my account, and it just hangs. It never actually deletes my account.

### 1/5 — Bad audio

*2026-07-15, version 3.9.15*

Ruins all audio quality on my phone. Which sucks when I want some background noise when reading,

### 1/5 — Meu plano extinguiu antes data

*2026-07-10*

Eu fiz um plano de um ano, começando por abril, e mês passado parou de funcionar, está aparecendo para eu comprar outro plano sendo que ainda não findou esse, até na Apple está constando a data até abril  fo ano que vem, tentei falar com o dono ou com a empresa mais sem resposta, isso é enganação até porque se vc vai usar uns dias e depois não vai conseguir usar mais é mentira o pacote de um ano, tomem cuidado e não confiem nesse app pois eles não tem nenhum suporte. EU NUNCA MAIS VOLTAREI A COMPRAR.

### 1/5 — Inutile: manque le genre des mots.

*2026-06-09*

Inutile car en allemand dans le lexique le genre des mots n'est pas indiqué. Comment peut-on concevoir une application d'apprentissage linguistique sans une fonction si basique et cruciale. Et les textes sont vraiment bébêtes.

**Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback. We're sorry the app didn't meet your expectations. We understand the importance of indicating the gender of words in German and will consider this in future updates. We also appreciate your thoughts on the texts and will look into improving them. Your input is really valuable as we work to enhance Beelinguapp.

### 1/5 — Free version is horrible

*2026-05-31*

I have Duolingo and was looking for something to allow me to read. Didn’t want the full version because I’m already paying a lot of money to get then grammar. Just wanted to read Spanish books. Was told this app had a decent free version. Was planning to try it out and see if paying would be worth it but couldn’t  open one book without being asked to pay premiums

**Developer response:** Hello! We have a catalog of free stories that rotates continuously, so there’s always something new to explore. You can find all our free content in the Library section, and free texts are marked as “FREE.”

### 1/5 — Covers are AI slop

*2026-05-24, version 3.9.12*

I personally hate the vibe that this app gives off. In it, all the story covers are AI and they are EVERYWHERE. Really begins to make you wonder if the stories are written by AI too. It’s just too uncomfortable for me to use.

### 1/5 — Aplicativo horrível

*2026-05-03*

Achei o aplicativo péssimo, paguei o premium e os textos travam e eu não consigo continuar a leitura!

**Developer response:** We’re really sorry you’re experiencing this issue. Could you please send us a video or screenshot showing what happens? Please email the details to feedback@beelinguapp.com, so our team can look into it and help you as soon as possible.

### 1/5 — Include Bengali Language

*2026-04-26, version 3.9.12*

There are almost 280-290 million of people speaks Bengali. But it’s a matter of regret that still now you can’t include Bengali Language. Please add Bengali ASAP. Thanks.

### 1/5 — Can’t feed online

*2026-04-10, version 3.9.11*

I used to access this app from my iPad. I recently renewed my subscription and got a MacBook. The app is not compatible for MacBook and you can’t access the content through the browser. This is frustrating and I want a refund.

### 1/5 — Even the basic features are behind paywall

*2026-04-02*

One of the worst app. It is better to use LingQ. They are much less greedy than these beeling guys

**Developer response:** Hello! There is the possibility to purchase a premium subscription, which gives you access to all the content and features, but there is also the option to use the app for free. We have a catalog of free stories that rotates continuously. Have a nice day!

### 5/5 — Fantastic app

*2026-06-13, version 3.9.12*

Great app for learning with lots of great content. Using the full premium version which was a bit of a pain to sort out, but all good now.

### 5/5 — 役に立ってます

*2026-03-21*

イタリア語を勉強しています。
文章をたくさん読めるのでこのアプリのおかげで慣れてきた気がします。
好きなジャンルの物語を生成できるのも楽しいです。
サブスク代もお手頃なので満足しています。
このアプリを作ってくださってありがとうございます。
要望として、android端末からappleaccountでログインできるようにしてもらえるようにしてほしいです。

**Developer response:** Thank you so much for your kind words and support! Regarding your request, it is currently not possible to log in on an Android device using an Apple account. However, if you have an active subscription linked to your Apple ID, we can transfer it to a different account so that you can use it on your Android device as well. Please just contact us at feedback@beelinguapp.com.

### 5/5 — Plus de langues svp

*2026-02-24*

Très bonne application. J’aime le concept. Pourriez vous rajouter des nouvelles langues ? Merci

**Developer response:** Thank you so much for your kind review! We're planning to add more languages in the future. We'd love to hear which languages you'd like to study, so please feel free to send us your suggestions at feedback@beelinguapp.com.

### 5/5 — ✅ English Feature Request (Recommended)

*2026-01-02, version 3.9.1*

Hello Beelinguapp team,

I really enjoy using Beelinguapp for language learning. The bilingual and split reading modes are very helpful.

Currently, there is an option to hide the Chinese translation and show only English, which is great. However, I would like to suggest adding the opposite feature:

👉 Hide English / Show Chinese only

This mode would allow learners to:
	•	Read the Chinese translation first
	•	Try to recall or produce the English sentence by themselves
	•	Then reveal the English text to check accuracy

Suggested implementation:
	•	Add a new display option in the split/view settings:
“Hide English (Show Chinese only)”
	•	Ideally, allow users to tap to reveal/hide the English sentence
	•	Optional: support revealing sentence by sentence, which is very useful for speaking and translation practice

This feature would be extremely helpful for active recall, speaking, and translation training.

App version: 3.9.1 (iOS)

Thank you for your great work!

Love this app will rate five plus stars when it syncs across all my devices thanks … still waiting for an update… ???

Keep trying getting better…many thanks for your response five stars when the app syncs across all devices can be a really great app!!! 4.5 stars now
