### 1/5 — Unusable

*2025-03-17, version 1.8.6*

I like the idea of learning a language in order to unlock some apps and reduce my usage of the phone. But the apps is unusable. After the initial setup which was very clunky, anytime I try to manage apps in order to add them to the restricted list the app prompts an upgrade to paid membership and doesn’t add those apps to the list. The app list also goes blank randomly.

### 1/5 — Zahid

*2024-10-18, version 1.7.2*

In apps gone free advertised this app is free for life , when downloaded the pap popped up appears that need to pay £49 . Total nonsense.

### 1/5 — No free trial?

*2024-10-03, version 1.7.1*

I’m not going to pay for something I can’t even try out

### 1/5 — Opal is doing a better job than u

*2024-09-17, version 1.5.0*

Just delete this app honestly. It’s embarrassing.  Results speak for themselves, I’m just amplifying it.

### 1/5 — Horribly developed

*2024-08-17, version 1.2.0*

This app has locked my apps even after I delete the app because it doesn’t function well. You have to review the same words day after day and there is no one to contact for support. DO NOT DOWNLOAD.

### 2/5 — Not useful for me

*2024-10-16, version 1.7.2*

The “various languages” offered are only French, Spanish, and Japanese.  I’m currently working on Italian, so this won’t work.

### 3/5 — Bien mais…

*2024-10-20, version 1.7.2*

Le concept est super mais malheureusement il n’y a aucun suivi de nos réponses. On aimerait voir nos erreurs (pour par exemple les retravailler) et avoir des statistiques de progression.

### 3/5 — Seems good for what it’s worth

*2024-10-17, version 1.7.2*

Wish it could return to previous app. Most importantly it needs to change out the words if marked as correct .. & the words are far too basic. It’s only testing words I already know in both French & Spanish.

### 3/5 — Wish it had more languages

*2024-10-17, version 1.7.2*

I would love to use this app, but it doesn’t have the language I need. Can you add Arabic please?

### 4/5 — Nice so far, some improvements are needed!

*2024-10-21, version 1.7.2*

The app is great, I only miss a few things:
- being able to have default and reverse activated for the same words
- change the font size on screen
- being able to review cards without opening a distracting app
- being able to unlock an app for the time spent unlocking it
- add a time of the day hard lock: I can still browse Reddit during work if I review cards. The point would be to review cards then a message saying that it’s not the time to browse Reddit for example

I wish I’ll see these included in a future update! Good luck making this app!

### 5/5 — Great for productivity

*2024-10-18, version 1.7.2*

This is a great way to form a habit and the app is easy to use. I love the idea behind it and plan to use it everyday.

### 5/5 — Add more languages

*2024-10-17, version 1.7.2*

Please add English with different levels, or other skills, like mathematics

### 5/5 — Beautiful and effective

*2024-08-23*

I use this on all my messaging apps and have learned 40 new words in a single week! The design is really clean and the developer is transparent about what permissions are needed. Would highly recommend.

**Developer response:** Thank you for your kind words!

### 5/5 — Best thing

*2024-08-12, version 1.1.2*

I started and I learnt words in Japanese and loved how it blocked distractions thank you

### 4/5 — Great!

*2024-09-06, version 1.4.2*

I love this app! It forces me to learn vocabulary that I otherwise would put off. I would give it 5 stars if they included reverse scenarios where you are given the English word and must come up with the foreign equivalent. That would really cement the new word in my vocabulary.
