### 5/5 — Love it already

*2020-10-10, version 5.1.3*

I downloaded it today wanting to learn Spanish and DominoEdu was recommended to me by my older sister. I love the hearts, yes it can be annoying but it is there to help you learn and practice to get more hearts, and I find it a smart idea. It gets you to practice if you really want to learn right at the moment or you can wait. 
 I only had it for a at least an hour but you can get really focus on it and lose track of time, and that for me is hard because I have a low attention span.
 I highly recommend it⭐️

### 5/5 — DominoEdu

I love DominoEdu. It helps you learn multiple languages and you get a practice heart to correct your mistakes.

### 5/5 — Review

*2020-10-09, version 5.1.3*

I enjoy learning Turkish with DominoEdu, but I had several days when I was unable to do the reviews, so I am very much behind. I am very competitive , and fear i will get too many of the exercises wrong. I am very elderly and short term memory is one of the likely problems I will experience. I also wonder why I only got 29/38 when all my answers were correct for my last exercise. I wondered if I appeared to be too slow. I had several interruptions and I write all the lesson out including the answers to the questions before I reply. I usually get full or nearly full marks for the exercises.

### 5/5 — This is amazing

*2020-10-09, version 5.1.3*

This app is really good I have learnt sooooo much already thanks to babble . I am working on my Dutch even though I go to Dutch school it still works on me . Because my family lives in the Netherlands I have to speak Dutch to talk to my family that where babble comes in handy I simply take out my phone and start working and the best part is it is totally FREE isn’t that great !

### 5/5 — Amazing app

*2020-10-01, version 5.1.1*

Very great tool to learning Chinese. This is the best program I have come across and I’ve tried everything. The course makes it easy to understand and fun to learn.

### 5/5 — Great to practice and learn!

Felix not only educates us,but also adds humour for us to have fun and laugh and learn.

### 5/5 — Great concept!

*2020-08-18, version 5.0.1*

great. exactly what I was hoping it to be. Funny. Brilliant Delivery, and like the building blocks approach. I saw a youtube video about the concept of building blocks of the Chinese Characters and this delivers exactly that. A very good way to learn Chinese.

### 1/5 — Omg

*2021-11-07, version 5.2.2*

Wish it wasn’t having to be paid for

### 1/5 — Doesn’t Load

*2019-08-19, version v3.3*

I want to love it but it doesn’t load with or without a VPN. My iPhone 8 is up to date and the app is up to date.

### 1/5 — App not working

*2019-05-10*

App does not open needs a update!

### 3/5 — Pretty good

*2021-02-28, version 5.1.12*

The good: Felix does a good job not scaring off beginners.  I think this is a good course for beginners and people without lots of language study background, but someone with significant language study background may be better served by some mixture of textbooks and online dialogue videos/a one-on-one tutor.  In fact, I would say the more you have studied languages, the more you will find Domino Chinese some mix of longwinded and annoying. 

The bad: 
There is lots of room for improvement:
1. Occasionally get errors about "can't find my learning progress." These seem to be less common now.  
2. The flashcards are annoying in that they often cover words not in the videos or are out-of-sync with the videos due to the course evolving.  Additionally, equal weight is placed on obscure words as opposed to very common words.  Fluency is more based on you knowing the top 500 or 1000 words completely as opposed to whichever words Felix chose to teach together in a lesson because the characters looked similar.  
3. I think the coverage of grammar is good for beginners but longwinded and perhaps even confusing if you have a better background in language study. 
4. Unfortunately vocabulary learning is done by related characters, so it takes a long time before you learn even basic words that you may need. 
5. The course is advertised as "45 minutes a day", but some of the lessons take well over an hour when you add up the videos and quizzes.

### 4/5 — Not working on I phone 11

*2019-10-07, version v3.4*

I love this app and program but can’t access it anymore for some reason. I got a new iPhone 11 and I go to the app and it doesn’t work. It opens to a white page with 4 dots and doesn’t ever leave that page. I went to app support here in the App Store but it takes you to a 404 error page, so I thought I’d write a review to see if I can get some help or they can update the app. Please help, I miss studying Chinese

### 4/5 — Excellent

*2018-12-28*

Excellent course. App needs some work. Frequently need to shut down and restart the program, especially after the last video, before the lesson mastery quiz. Also has some small errors/inconsistencies in the course content, perhaps it’s just a little rough around the edges, and needs some refinement. But I love the homegrown feel. Even with its problems, this is an excellent course. Well done Felix! Brilliant!

### 5/5 — An amazing new method to learn Chinese

*2023-09-15*

Felix’s method of breaking down characters makes Chinese manageable. I have been studying the platform Felix has created for over a year now and his method is unique and definitely worth a try. If you ever had any inclination to learn Chinese give domino a try you won’t be disappointed. Also the videos are priceless and make learning fun.

### 5/5 — Great app

*2020-10-26, version 5.1.6*

Best Chinese learning app out there! I’ve been using it for several months and not getting bored.

### 5/5 — The best app

*2020-10-26, version 5.1.6*

Better than any other language app I tried before

### 5/5 — The best app

## Most praised reviews (6 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — Really excellent free app.

*2020-10-26, version 5.1.6*

I finished everything on the free app and I am now using premium +
 The Domino Edu Team are constantly adding to the app and making improvements. I’ve used several Chinese language apps. This is the best one.

### 5/5 — My favourite Chinese learning App

*2020-10-26, version 5.1.6*

I decided to learn Chinese during quarantine. After trying a few different apps, I found this one to be the most effective for me and best of all there are a lot of good exercises and information given to you for free. Sometimes, if I am not in the mood for any lessons, I find the daily challenge games are enough to keep me coming back. The app’s UI is easy to navigate and overall very stylish. When I eventually find employment again I will definitely pay for the premium subscription as there are some extra features which would make my life easier, but rest assured the free version will not limit your learning at all!

### 5/5 — I am very happy about good things means not annoying

*2020-10-26, version 5.1.6*

I am very good job

### 5/5 — AMAZING

*2020-10-25, version 5.1.5*

Excellent way to learn and memorize chinese characters. Fun, simple and helpful 😃

### 5/5 — One way ticket to Chinese

*2020-10-23, version 5.1.5*

I just got this game a week ago and it’s amazing I just learnt 18 fully Chinese words fully in the past days.With exiting contents and a blue monster to help you out this game will surely be your Chinese teacher. Not to hard and not to easy this game will surely make your Chinese better

### 5/5 — I’m learning! 谢谢！

*2020-10-22, version 5.1.5*

I’ve found this app really helpful to learn Chinese. My family is from China but I’m not very good at Chinese. I’ve tried other language learning apps and found this one was good as it is an app completely dedicated to Chinese. I’m learning Chinese quickly for the first time! You have to get premium to access the later levels, but I decided it was worth it for how much fun I was having. Thank you!
