Mediocre

Nice idea and good science, but slow to start, and searching for images when adding vocab is also very slow.

We're very sorry to hear that. If you have any feedback to give, we'd be happy to hear it via our support email!

Really useful, is it progressing?

I am in my second year with FF, and have found it to be really valuable to my learning. I was particularly impressed by the pronunciation and spelling/sounding materials, and the presentation of flashcards is good.

The biggest issue for me is that, learning a language outside of the FF tutoring system, you are left a bit on your own once you have gone past the basic vocabulary stage of the FF system. I am working with a language course which generates plenty of subject matter for new flashcards, but that itself makes me more frustrated with some of the limitations around creating flashcards.

I would like to see development around flashcard creation and editing, which I think would be much more useful than the recent changes in summary information. I would happily discuss the changes I would like to see in detail - the top two are a) giving access to all of the built-in flashcard capabilities (e.g. gender markers) to custom flashcards, both creating and editing, and b) accommodate Dutch separable verbs in flashcards.

Oh, and don’t ‘switch off’ so quickly. Sometimes a flashcard takes time to create and it’s so frustrating when the app resets in the middle of the process.

Hi there! Thanks so much for your thoughtful review! We're delighted to hear that you've found Fluent Forever valuable throughout your language-learning journey, particularly our pronunciation lessons and flashcard system! We understand how useful it would be to have more flexibility when creating, searching for and editing flashcards, especially as your collection grows. We'd love to hear more about your suggestions, particularly how we could better accommodate Dutch separable verbs. Please feel free to share your ideas and specific examples with our helpdesk at help@fluent-forever.com. In the meantime, for grammatical gender, you could try adding coloured images or drawings to your custom flashcards to help distinguish between genders and strengthen your visual associations. While we can't promise when or whether these improvements will be introduced, we'll gladly pass your suggestions along to our development team. We really appreciate your continued support and for taking the time to help us make Fluent Forever better!

Works well with the book

Concept is good. Appears early in execution.

Worked really well

I used Fluent Forever for 215 days to learn German pronunciation, listening, and vocabulary before a 2 week trip to Germany. I’ve now completed the trip and successfully spoke German at an A2/B1 level. I learned grammar from a separate textbook, but this app truly built critical skills and vocabulary.

So far

This app is very difficult to figure out. I want a ready-to-use app not one I have to spend time watching videos just to make it useful. I’m sure it’s all there somewhere but not user-friendly at all.

No exploration

I just finished the book and thought I would check out this app. The resources he gave in the book weren’t as clean as he made them sound (Anki). When I went to look at this app, all of the features are behind a pay wall. There’s no way to test if you even like it Before it asks you for $12 a month. That’s an insane amount of money for something you don’t even know to be legible.

Great system!

I’m enjoying making and using the flash cards and have hopes that the system will help me on my way to fluency. My reason for giving it 4/5 stars is due to the graphic nature of some of the pictures that populate. I will have to reconsider how my daughter will learn French as I’ve come across several pictures/actions that are NOT for children. And the pictures are a stretch to describe the words. Totally unnecessary.

Limited

Good for basic vocabulary. Stops helping with the generation of new words from sentences flash cards around 5000 words. Lots of trivial words. Inability to export content a big drawback. Very unlikely I will renew my annual subscription.

Thank you for your review! We're thrilled to hear you're enjoying learning Spanish with Fluent Forever, and we wish you much progress as you go along. ¡Buena suerte!

Subscription failed

I downloaded this app and subscribed for a month, but the app never registered that I was subscribed. The subscription was visible and active in my apple subscriptions menu. I tried logging out and back in, still no luck. I’ve cancelled my subscription and deleted the app now. I was looking forward to trying it.

Doesn’t work on iPad

This app has been flaky for a while, but with the latest update it is no longer usable on my iPad Pro.

A core tool for my Spanish journey

I read the Fluent Forever book, then bought this app, and have gradually built up to over 2000 known words and phrases in Spanish. Vocabulary used to just slip out of my head as soon as I learned it, but with this method it sticks. I like that the app allows me to insert my own images. That way I can separately make an AI-generated mnemonic image that helps me remember even better, and then insert it into my flashcards for this app (for example, have an AI program make an image of a guy jumping over a salt shaker for “saltar” meaning to jump). I also use this app to memorize short sentences or phrases that reinforce grammar rules. To do that I separately make an AI generated image of a person saying the phrase in English in a speech bubble, and pair that with the Spanish sentence or phrase. Overall this app has been the bedrock of me building out my Spanish vocabulary, while I’ve used other tools for some of the other aspects of language learning.

Thank you for your updated review! It really sounds like you're using the app and method exactly how it was designed to be used! This is probably why you're having such fantastic results - but of course, these results wouldn't come to fruition without your consistency. Congratulations on all your achievements and we hope you're loving the journey! :)

Had to request a refund!

I had bought the fluent forever book because I wanted to learn Spanish. I really liked the book so I decided to try the app that was mentioned in the book. At first it seemed like it was going to be super helpful, from looking at the free version, so I decided to buy the monthly premium subscription. After I purchased the premium monthly subscription for 11.99 per month, I see a little tiny icon at the top that looks like a present and is a coupon code that would make it only 8.99 per month, only unfortunately I had already just purchased the same thing for 11.99! And on top of that, when I clicked the purchase button, it said that the purchase was successful and the app even started showing up under my subscriptions on my Apple account. However, nothing unlocked!! The app still kept requesting me to purchase a subscription!! Everything stayed locked up! I even tried reaching out to the company 3 different times with no response at all other than the automated response showing a ticket number and saying that they’re on it! But no actual emails from any real people to address the issue. After two full days with no response from this company I had to reach out to Apple support and tell them what happened and request a refund!! As of today it’s been 3 days since I had sent the first email to the company, and still no response. Don’t waste your money like I did, just hoping I can get it back, since the 11.99 I got charged literally didn’t unlock anything!!! Going to have to use a different app to learn Spanish!

We are very sorry about this. A technical issue prevented the subscription from being displayed correctly in the app, but this has now been resolved. Please go ahead and update the app to the most recent version (released today), and log back in. Your subscription should now appear as active. If it still isn’t showing, open Settings in the app and select Restore Purchases. If you experience any difficulty with this process, please contact our helpdesk and we’ll be happy to investigate further.

Do NOT get this buggy mess!

The book is great so I was wondering if all the app hate was warranted? it is… The most important aspect of your app, the subscription, is broken. I made a monthly subscription, “purchase successful” message, app hangs, on restart no premium features, can’t subscribe, and I have no idea if I was actually charged though my subscription page says I am! I will be making a refund claim and DELETING this buggy mess

BEST LANGUAGE APP

It helps to understand if you read the book on the best way to learn a language. But Even if you don’t the videos are helpful enough. The app is easy to use and I’m rolling with my language.

Huge boost to my fluency but app is crashing

I have been using Fluent Forever for 90+ days and was boasting to my friends about how significantly it’s improved my language retention from learning sessions. However since Aug 1 the app has been crashing every time I attempt to launch it. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling on another device with no success. I have reached out to support via multiple channels and gotten no assistance besides an acknowledgment of the issue from the Facebook admin. I have a year long subscription so I am not sure what my options are are this point. Please provide assistance or at least an update on the status of the issue.

Streak reset

I think the streak may be a 24hr timer. If it is it would be more useful if it was a day timer. I have seen the streak reset because one day I used the app at noon and the next day I used it in the evening. Small detail👍
