### 3/5 — Could be better

*2026-06-01, version 5.8.4*

The app is great, except for the fact that when I got a new phone, I had to start again from the beginning and lost all my progress. Secondly, the slider to adjust how often a word is used is too close to the bottom and is difficult to move without sliding the screen around. The slider should be a higher and not touching the sides of the screen so that the window doesn’t move or slide.

### 3/5 — Need more information about the features

*2025-12-18, version 5.8.4*

I’m enjoying the Nemo app, but would it kill the developers to put in information about how to actually operate it? For instance, there is a bar at the bottom that goes from red to blue, hot to cold. I couldn’t find any information on the app itself about what this means and how to use it. There may be more future features that I’m unaware of which is frustrating.

### 2/5 — Очень плохо.

*2025-11-12*

Выключился звук почти в начале пользования.

### 5/5 — フランス語　楽しい　ジャンブノア

*2025-03-14*

フランス語を生まれて初めて学んだ時　私45歳の先生の名前とってとっても楽しかったですは ジャンブノアと言う先生です。 　私は歯科衛生士です。 フランスのエリック口腔外科医　歯と口腔　アンケート100人　フランス人を頼みました。日本の学会で発表 フランスの歯科医師の学会に3年間通いました。 フランス🇫🇷の恋人　フランス人の友人　 フランス🇫🇷の生き方　考えを吸収しました。 　その後　日本の柔道　学生　世界柔道大会で 何と通訳にチャレンジ　受かってしまい　 2年間　フランスの中学生の通訳 監督から柔道をするのは　　価値　がある とお答え^_^いただきました。衝撃的な言葉でした。 当時　日本は勝利第一主義でした。　フランスのほうが柔道人口は多い、、 　ジャンブノア　今　どこで　フランス語の先生をしていますか？　 今年73歳になりました。 フランス座からしばらく離れていましたが 　ジャンブノア　にお聞きしたい ^_^ フランスでは　歯のエックス線写真　を 学校教育で　なぜ　利用するのですか？ フランスから学ぶことが沢山あります。 少しずつ　フランス語学習　続けます。 基礎を学ぶこと　楽しい時間をありがとうございます😊

### 3/5 — lacks customization

*2025-02-24, version 5.8.4*

This program is great for limited vocabulary building. Word choice suggests it is designed with young adults in mind as words used my mature adults are less emphasised.   Although additional vocabulary is available there is no facility for personalisation or adding words suitable for a profession or career which is unfortunate.

### 4/5 — 对于小白非常好，他会循序渐进的学习先用到的单词

*2025-01-09, version 5.8.4*

对于小白非常好，他会循序渐进的学习先用到的单词

### 5/5 — Успокойтесь

*2024-09-11*

Люди, хватит ставить одну звезду приложению, которое всего лишь отвечает за изучение языка. не будьте такими тупыми :)

### 5/5 — ГДЕ ПАПА?!?

*2024-08-29*

За Дурова!!

### 5/5 — 0 stars

*2024-07-18, version 5.8.0*

HAVE TO BUY IS REALLY A BIG SCAM. JUST LET A LEARN WITHOUT PAYING OR I WILL NOT RECOMMEND TO FRIENDS. I WILL TELL MY FIENDS THIS IS A BAD APP TO LEARN FRENCH.

### 5/5 — Great Universal Program

*2024-07-02, version 5.8.0*

Nemo does a good job for multiple languages. This gives a lot of word choices and you can choose how many to work on in a day, and play them on a reel or use like flash cards.

### 4/5 — とてもいいです。でも、

*2024-04-19*

ながら聞きでかなり覚えられました。 ウィジェットに追加できたらもっといいのに、と思います。検討お願いします。
あと、leとかkaとか、定冠詞も読んでください。それがあったら満点★5です。

### 5/5 — Deutsche Computersprache

*2024-03-01*

Ich frage mich, ob die deutschen Stimmen wirklich so abgehackt und unfreundlich sprechen müssen. So sprechen wir gar nicht! Bei der französischen Sprache geht es doch auch?!

### 5/5 — Thank you for always but 要望有(I have a suggestion )❗️

*2024-02-13*

このアプリが好きで課金しています。ちなみにポーランド語も課金しました。それくらい使いやすくて、勉強になるアプリです！

なのですが、ここで一つお願いがあります。
定冠詞や性別がわかるように、
« thé »ではなく、  « Le thé » 
のように、定冠詞も読み上げてくれる機能を選択できるようにしてくださればありがたいです。

I love this app. I liked it so much that I paid for it. However, I have a suggestion. So that we user can understand the definite article and gender,
 it’s a example. « Le thé » or  « thé »
I would appreciate it if I also able to choose a function that reads out the definite article

### 2/5 — 自分の録音が消せない

*2024-01-30*

消し方が載ってない、わからないー。 アプリ消すしかないのかな

### 5/5 — Such a useful tool

*2023-11-25, version 5.8.0*

Just starting out to learn French and I love the way this app allows you to set how many words/phrases a day you’d like to learn.    Clear, precise and gives you the chance to repeat words for playback.

### 1/5 — 単語数

*2023-11-18*

１００個は少なすぎ

### 1/5 — Meh…

*2023-08-26, version 5.8.0*

I know pronunciation is important and mine isn’t great, but I can’t figure whether it likes it or not.  It’s given me about 5 words (hello, goodbye, please, thank you and one or two others. I’ve been learning on Duolingo for a couple years and can’t believe my pronunciation is so bad that I can’t get past these words. Seems like a waste of time

### 1/5 — まあ

*2023-06-24*

耐え

### 1/5 — Bad

*2021-04-30, version 5.8.0*

OK so I have a trying a bunch of apps to learn French this is one of the worst ones because when you say the word through the microphone I don’t know if I said it good or if I said it bad it doesn’t say if I’m saying it right fix this make it like you would learn in the classroom the way you did it made me freak out

### 1/5 — Not much words

*2021-04-03, version 5.8.0*

You have to pay.

### 1/5 — Ruim

*2020-11-28*

Mesmo depois que apaguei, o aplicativo sempre fica voltando!

### 5/5 — Все прекрасно

*2026-05-23*

Спасибо. Мне нравится.

### 5/5 — Easy learning

*2026-04-12, version 5.8.4*

The app teaches you common phrases and repeats them in a random order. You can listen to the words and then say them and the microphone feature helps to compare your pronunciation. Overall this is one of the best apps I have downloaded to learn French. It’s absolutely wonderful and I recommend it. The best learning French app.

### 5/5 — 楽しい😃

*2026-04-12*

発音も訳もテスト形式でシンプルで試しながら、繰り返し学べます♪楽しくて毎日繰り返しています。頑張ります😊

### 5/5 — Great Litte Ap

*2026-02-15, version 5.8.4*

Just what I was looking for to refresh my memory for French…basic words and easy to use at your own pace

### 5/5 — Gosto muito do app para aprendizagem

*2025-12-07*

Gostaria que tivesse a opção de colocar a voz do francês em masculino.

### 5/5 — 좋아요!!

*2025-10-18*

독학으로 배울때 정말 도움되고 내가 어떻게 발음하는지 간편하게 확인하고 비교할수 있는게 진짜 큰 장점이에요!!! 생활에서 아주 기본적으로 쓰이는 말들을 얼마든지 발음하며 연습하니까 입에도 익숙하게 잘 붙어서 기억에도 잘남아요 최공

### 5/5 — Mr Mehrdad Katanchi

*2025-08-02, version 5.8.4*

I love this app really good and easy to use 🙏🙏❤️❤️

### 5/5 — I wish I could give it a six star rating

*2025-07-30, version 5.8.4*

I downloaded this app a couple days ago, cause I am going on holiday to France soon and it has helped me become fluent at French

### 5/5 — Left a Review, then POW!

*2025-07-28, version 5.8.4*

I was leaving a positive review for this app because I was learning phrases instead of just words. 
Not 2 seconds after I left the review, they blocked me from using without updating to the “PAID” version. If you don’t plan to buy, don’t bother.

### 5/5 — Немо классное

*2025-03-20*

Тут можно узнать много нового и познавательного. Тут можно по своему желанию изучать слова. Хотя здесь нет выбрать что дают небольшой минус но всё равно приложение классное
