I really love using Duocards to learn vocabulary with flashcards. I’d really love to have an option to automatically play the example sentence when I flip a flashcard. Right now, I can hear the word, but hearing the example sentence automatically would help me remember the word much better. It would be great if users could turn this option on in the settings. Thank you! **Developer response:** Thank you for sticking with us! ❤️ We completely understand the frustration about waiting for offline access — it’s something we really want to bring to you too. We’re working on it, but to be honest, it’s turned out to be more technically complex than we initially expected. We’re doing our best to find a reliable and smooth solution. ### 3/5 — Excellent when it works *2026-07-16* Probably the single best and most easy to use flash card app I’ve ever used. I find its tools very helpful. I only wish that I could adjust the pronunciation on cards since sometime the AI picks up the wrong pronunciation for certain kanji. In addition, I seem to get “connection problem” error messages often no matter how good my signal is and I suspect it has more to do with something on the app’s back end than it does the user. It would be great if that could be worked out. **Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback. We're glad to hear you enjoy the app overall. Regarding pronunciation, its quality is still limited by the capabilities of the underlying AI models. As for the connection errors, we're sorry for the inconvenience. We've sent a fix there, so it should work better. ### 4/5 — Gute Lern App mit leichten Einschränkungen *2026-07-12* Schade dass die Stimme von dem Elefanten nicht sehr authentisch klingt. **Developer response:** Hi, sorry to hear that you're having trouble! Please try reinstalling the app. If that doesn’t help, contact us through the help desk within the app. We’ll do our best to help! 💪Michaela from DuoCards ### 4/5 — Need To Improve Marathi Language Module *2026-07-03, version 1.20.16* The western language modules are much better developed , structured, and Colloquial while the marathi version is a disorganized (no intended structure ) . the translation being taught my family of modern day marathi speakers have to correct everything I learn off of this platform as no one uses these translations ### 4/5 — Приложение не открывается *2026-06-29* Почему приложение не открывается? Вначале было хорошо , все открывалось и отлично помогало понимать язык , но вдруг просто перестало открываться . Попробовала удалить и загрузить вновь - не реагирует **Developer response:** Hi Erika, please try reinstalling the app. If that doesn't help, send us a message at info@duocards.com, and we'll assist you further. Jana from DuoCards ### 4/5 — Words I know *2026-06-28, version 1.20.16* How can I delete words that I already learned that are already in my library list ? ### 4/5 — ❤️ *2026-06-15* This is a great app for learning English words. I've been using it for half a year now and even bought a subscription. the only drawback is that Russian users need to use VPN, and it doesn't always work. As a result, I hardly use my subscription, as sometimes I can't even connect to the VPN (I can't support shock mode either). **Developer response:** Hello Сигмавумен, We're happy to hear DuoCards is a great tool for your English learning! 🌟 We understand the connection issues some users in Russia are experiencing can be frustrating. This is often due to network restrictions that affect VPN performance. Unfortunately, we don't have direct control over these external network factors. We appreciate you sticking with us! Cheers, Jana from DuoCards ### 3/5 — Не грузится *2026-06-15* Скачала, открыла, пишет нет интернета, он есть и все другие сайты и приложения работают. Не смогла даже посмотреть что внутри **Developer response:** Hi Sandra, It sounds like you're experiencing connectivity issues despite having a stable internet connection. To help us troubleshoot this, please reach out to support@duocards.com with details about your device, operating system version, and any other relevant information you've noticed. Jana from DuoCards ### 5/5 — Una maravilla de app. *2026-06-07, version 1.20.16* Estupendo sistema para aprender idiomas. ### 5/5 — Most Effective *2026-06-06, version 1.20.16* Of all the language learning programmes I’ve used so far, this is the one I like best and, in my opinion, the most effective. ### 5/5 — เพิ่งลองใช้ว้าวมาก *2026-06-01, version 1.20.16* หลังจากเข้าไปดูในแอปบอกเลยนะคือมันให้ความรู้สึกเหมือนกับการเล่นบนมือถือเลยปัดปัดอ่ะแล้วแบบมันลงตัวมาก แล้วแถมแค่ใช้ ตัวฟรีนะอย่างคุ้มอ่ะปกติก็เคยโหลดแอปอังกฤษแต่ส่วนใหญ่อ่ะมันเสียตังค์แล้วก็แบบโอ้โหอะไรอ่ะดูแอปนี้ ให้เลยเยี่ยมมากลองๆดู ### 5/5 — One of the best! *2026-05-31* This is the app I’ve been searching for! Already has sets but super easy to add my own words! So simple to add words to my personal deck from anywhere! Bonus: it even has some videos which are great because when I don’t understand a word, I can easily add to my deck! Awesome job! **Developer response:** Hi Jimmy, So glad we could help you find what you were looking for! It's awesome that you can easily build your own decks and learn from videos. 🤩 Jana from DuoCards ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Ai tutor is silly *2026-08-05* The AI tutor is almost completely useless. It always responds with short answers, and no matter what you ask it, it basically says the same thing. You ask it to explain the etymology of a word or phrase, and it just gives you the meaning instead, simply rephrasing it. If you ask it to explain some complex language concepts, it again responds with short phrases that don't mean much. As a result, you might be paying for a premium subscription, but you still have to use ChatGPT to get comprehensive and understandable explanations. I am very disappointed with this app. While many other features work well, this particular aspect has left me frustrated. **Developer response:** Hey! We hear your frustration with the AI tutor. Our team is continuously working to enhance its ability to provide detailed explanations for a wide range of queries, including etymology and complex language concepts. Could you please let us know some examples of this at support@duocards.com? Thanks! Cheers, Jana from DuoCards ### 1/5 — Asks for review before I even try the app *2026-08-02, version 1.20.16* How about you let me do a lesson or see your app before you ask me to rate it? ### 1/5 — Problemas de conexão *2026-07-21* Ele fica dando erro de conexão sem ter falha na conexão. Ele é o único app que tenho que dá esse problema **Developer response:** Hello, Please try reinstalling the application and check if the problem persists. If the issue continues, kindly reach out to us at support@duocards.com with details about your device and operating system so we can investigate further. Jana from DuoCards ### 1/5 — No to AI *2026-07-06, version 1.20.16* I cancelled my subscription. ### 1/5 — Мобильный интернет *2026-07-06* Удалю приложение, не работает на мобильной интернете **Developer response:** Hello, sorry to hear that. Please reinstall the app. If it won´t help, reach out to us at info@duocards.com so we can help you further. Cheers, Jana from DuoCards ### 1/5 — Wish i never downloaded this *2026-06-28* I wanted to improve my vocabulary by flipping through flashcards. Instead i get pushed into some analytical level setting test (which i couldn’t opt out of and just try the functionality). It makes me choose a topic of interest (cooking, travel, business) when what i’m interested in is improved fluency. It asked me a series of questions to which i responded with random keystrokes (so i could just get on with it) - and yet it “determined” i was at between 75-80% on metrics like grammar and pronunciation. Then it wanted to image my fingerprint. I’m sorry but you presume too much, your analytics are obviously fake, and your intrusiveness is off the charts. I can’t speak to the quality of the learning tool because i deleted the app rather than complete the personal information gathering inquisition. I wish i never downloaded it. **Developer response:** Hi, we're sorry to hear that your first impression of DuoCards was disappointing. The initial assessment is designed to personalize the learning experience, but we understand that not everyone wants to go through it before trying the app. We'll take your comments about the onboarding process into consideration as we continue improving the experience for new users. ### 1/5 — За деньги *2026-06-22, version 1.20.16* Не дам денег пока нет результата ### 1/5 — Bug *2026-06-15, version 1.20.16* Even though I’m a paid member on the iPhone app I always get a connection error unless I reload the app multiple times and it prevents me using it. If I swipe any cards whilst this connection error warning is present none of my progress saves which has cost me ALOT of time. If I paid more for this app I’d demand a refund. This app used to work fine so not sure what the problem is, no other app does this to me so I know it’s not my fault. ### 1/5 — Fix mapping translate activity *2026-05-18, version 1.20.16* В активити перевода значения проверяются по ключу а не значению - это бесит. Например мой кейс: в 1 заданием попало mi и milyen из венгерского. И оба они значат «что» и с этого момента это не проверка знания перевода а казино 50/50. ### 1/5 — Kötü *2026-05-10, version 1.20.16* Baya bir para istiyor ve sadece yıllık oluyor . Sadece 7 gün ücretsiz maalesef uygulama bu konuda kötü düzeltilmesi gerekiyor . Bundan dolayı puanım 1 oluyor ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — best app for me to study words *2026-08-06, version 1.20.16* я попробовал очень много способов как учить иностранные слова, но только в этом приложении у меня получилось РЕАЛЬНО выучить больше 1050 слов/фраз на английском и больше 600 на итальянском (учил в 2025, запоминал реально быстро и эффективно) Конечно если сюда не заходить, то весь словарь забывается, но это проблемы нашего мозга, а не этого милого мамонтёнка. всем мир ### 5/5 — Супер! *2026-07-18* Отличное приложение, удобная система карточек для запоминания, есть курсы для изучения грамматики(не по всем языкам), будет круто, если добавите грамматику турецкого, спасибо! **Developer response:** Thank you for your wonderful review! 😊 We're happy to hear you're enjoying DuoCards. As for the suggestion about adding Turkish grammar - we'll pass it on to the team for consideration. Happy learning! ### 5/5 — Excelente *2026-07-13* O melhor app de flashcards. Não achei nenhum como esse. Pode colocar frases de exemplos e imagens. Também tem a opção de falar ou digitar a frase. Muito bom! **Developer response:** Hello, thank you for your wonderful review! 😊 We're delighted to hear that DuoCards is your favorite flashcard app and that you enjoy the features. Happy learning! ### 5/5 — I love this app ❤️ *2026-07-09, version 1.20.16* This app better that other apps and there is no so mush limits and this really helped me to learn English ### 5/5 — My favorite learning app *2026-06-30, version 1.20.16* Great app and useful features ### 5/5 — Excellent language learning tool! *2026-06-29* After using it for its basic, free flashcards language learning function, I decided to upgrade to the paid version. It’s a vastly more comprehensive and interesting program. In addition to the excellent space practice flashcard system, you get AI powered learning tools for speaking, listening, generating stories using newly learned to vocabulary, and a tutor. I’ve only been using it for a day now, but I am definitely going to keep subscribing. **Developer response:** Hi Joe, We're thrilled you're finding value in the upgraded version of our app and are considering a continued subscription! It's fantastic to know that the advanced learning tools, like AI-powered speaking, listening, story generation, and the tutor, are enhancing your experience beyond the free flashcards.
