iPad login error

After installing and trying to log in to an existing paid account, I receive this error: JSON could not be serialised because the data is not in the correct format. I tried to reinstall the app but didn't help. Any solution?

Very well made app

App is very well made. Has a lot of intuitive functions for the learner. Like switching the translations on and off with a button. The interface is also well made. No problems so far. Curriculum is very in depth and just what I was looking for.

Best French Course and Best French Teacher

Excellent! Excellent! Excellent! Camille and Olivier's frenchtoday is everyday French, not classroom French. Their audio books and lessons are exceptionally well thought out and presented. Their frenchtoday app is intuitive and pleasent to use, and their audio books and lessons are simplly the best of the best.

BEST FRENCH COURSE ON THE MARKET !

Camille's French Today Audiobook method is second to none!

I taught myself Dutch 30 years ago and realize now, why it was so easy for me. I was married to a Dutch man who was patient and kind enough to show me how he positioned his mouth and spoke slowly and told me how he was pronouncing the letters/words. I had an in home teacher. After learning on my own for 2 years I went to an intensive course and they were shocked at how well I pronounced the Dutch language as well as able to read and write in Dutch.
I have faith I will do the same eventually, with French.
I am now in Tahiti living on a boat and both of us wanted to learn French, but did not want to be burdened with having to go ashore for French tutoring. We also learn at different speeds and this would have been discouraging for one of us if we had the same teacher.....

If you are serious and dedicated you can learn with this method. Camille's voice is beautiful, clear and her pronunciation is perfect. I have never taken any French classes in school and was expecting to have had a basic knowledge of French like every other method online or app expects of you. I have tried many, many apps, YouTube courses, online courses - paid/free etc. Some are okay, but they did not do it for me.
Camille's is perfect for the dedicated willing student.
Oh, I am so thrilled with her teaching method of Audio /written book method. I am a visual person as well. One of the methods I tried was Pimsler method, which is perfect for some, but it failed just 100 % for me. I could not slow it down enough to understand it. I needed to be able to see the written words and hear it slowly and clearly pronounced and Camille is just brilliant! The format is easy and I can repeat, repeat, repeat and review just as much as I need. She understands that some people need to be started with the very basic. That's me, and others can jump ahead that's my husband. My husband could skip and move ahead because of his Dutch, he already had the basics of the alphabet and mouth / tongue positions.
Camille actually starts at the beginning with the alphabet then has pictures and instructions for how to pronounce the letter, or combined letters in your mouth = tongue placement and everything. This may sound strange, but it is exactly how I learned Dutch and so appreciative for this. It's like having my "in home teacher again" It is how we learned from out parents, by watching their mouth and listening to them over and over. I can control my own pace. I am gaining confidence.

I can not say enough wonderful things about this course. It is just what my husband and I were searching for and very happy to find. She has it all, visual, audio with three speeds and even Street French.

I am so excited and thrilled to find her course and am grateful for her and her husband's patience with me during the purchase process. If you have questions, concerns, or need to add to your purchase, they get back to you and help you every step of the way. That is rare in this digital age. Camille and Oliver....Thank you very very much. I hope to meet you both one day and speak to you in French.

Not so modern method

I bought this thinking it would be a more contemporary way of learning. Unfortunately I bought into the ‘speaking street french’ sales pitch. It’s not. It’s very traditional and old school. Throws you straight into the needing to know language labelling & conjugating verbs immediately. Without any explanations or context. This is no different from the majority for teaching apps & online lessons. Other methods e.g. Learn french with Alexa is the same but more accessible & mainly free.
