### 5/5 — Talk don’t type

*2026-05-27, version 1.5.30*

A much better way to learn. Don’t worry about making mistakes, GoLingo corrects as you go. Highly recommended

### 3/5 — No customer service

*2026-01-09, version 1.5.28*

Why is the a1 conversation in the app not working ?

### 3/5 — A1

*2026-01-02, version 1.5.28*

this app says it has a a1 speaking , but it doesn’t work , I emailed support by no answer, had it worked by he review would of been 5 stars ! It would be nice if there was some support

### 1/5 — Pretty dire

*2025-11-21, version 1.5.26*

Did the first exercise and now it’s broken!

### 2/5 — Very buggy app

*2025-06-12*

Instead of adding content, work on fixing bugs. Just a suggestion. The content is ok, but accessing it is too frustrating.

**Developer response:** Hi there, thanks for your feedback. We'd love to hear any specific issues you've been having so we can fix them. Please send us an email to hello@golingo.co.uk. Thank you.

### 1/5 — Totally unusable

*2025-03-13, version 1.5.20*

App has stopped working again saying error loading data, we couldn’t find any mission data for your account. 

Please can you sort this out as you did previously.

Following my comments below, Jonathan from the developers team has been in regular contact and has worked hard to try and fix my problems, at the monument the app seems to be working well, although some of the translations are inaccurate. I’d like to amend my previous rating based on the excellent help given and hope that the app continues to work and improve.

Previous review - it’s stopped working and says something has gone wrong which has been reported to their engineers, this has been going on for over a week and the app is now totally useless, so my original review below now longer applies other than to say it hadn’t improved on my comments.

I really like the app, the interactions are good. However it’s twice restarted the lessons at the beginning and I can’t see how to go back to the level I should be on which is frustrating. 

Also when giving answers the app doesn’t always give adequate time for you to speak and can mishear your reply when it is actually correct.

### 4/5 — Totally unusable

### 4/5 — Good; still need feedback on the pronunciation

*2024-06-09*

This is a pretty good app to practice pronunciation. The app will show you the sentence, then pronounce it for you, then you get to record the pronunciation, then it will give you a score. Sometimes, it would give me  less than 100% (for example, 85%, 98%), but I couldn’t figure out which part of the word i didn’t pronounce correctly.  Maybe the developer can turn on the button to show us which part of the word pronunciation was scored low by the app.

I liked the conversation part where you could interact with others in the virtual town, but the app just told me what sentences to say. Of course, it would be great if I could pick my own spontaneous sentences, then the app could adjust and have a true conversation.

So it’s a good app for pronunciation.  It’s not so great for spontaneous conversation.

**Developer response:** Thanks for your review. We're really glad to hear golingo is helping you with your pronunciation. I've fed your comments back to the team. 

We have developed AI conversations which allow for spontaneous conversations. These unlock as you complete lessons. This allows you to put in to practice what you've learnt in previous lessons. They're also available to access straight away in Explore mode. A subscription is required to access these because of the costs involved in using AI technology. 

Thanks for taking the time to use golingo and good luck with the language learning!
