One of the better apps for learning Chinese imo
It feels quite new. The ui could be improved. The controls are not in one spot so pausing and moving between segments does not flow. I would suggest putting a pause button at the bottom with the controls or putting the video at the bottom instead of the transcription. There is also a lack of ability to turn on and off pinyin quickly which would be really helpful since the eyes naturally go to pinyin but they are necessary to read new words.
I think there should be a loop button so that segments loop instead of going to next segment because I want to listen again. Also a feature for slowing down might be good.
I think this app has lots of promise. I’ve tried 5+ apps for mando learning. This one feels the best so far
More enjoyable than SuperChinese and Duolingo

Bonne appli avec une marge de progression
Response from developer
Merci beaucoup pour votre retour détaillé et votre soutien ! Nous sommes ravis que Gravity vous aide dans votre apprentissage du japonais. Bonne nouvelle : notre dernière mise à jour introduit un nouveau système audio pour améliorer la prononciation des mots, ainsi que la possibilité d’ajouter directement des mots du dictionnaire à vos révisions ! Merci encore pour vos suggestions et votre confiance ! :)
One day in and it’s amazing
Only complaints are that I want more content! 😫 May I suggest ヒカキン or ポッキー? I loved the one horror stream that was featured on the app but would love to see more stream content.
Flashcard system is great and user friendly, only issue is sometimes the pronunciation is off but as long as you have the pitch accent and the reading on the back of the flashcard it’s pretty easy to figure out.
Love it so far!
Response from developer
Thank you so much for the amazing review! ❤️ Our very next update will bring a fresh wave of videos and improved transcripts, and we'll make sure to add the creators you suggested! We also just released a brand-new voice system today that should address the pronunciation issues you mentioned. Thank you for supporting Gravity!

Like always

良いアプリ

レビューありがとうございます!😊 これからもGravityをよろしくお願いします!
Good but need some improvement
Response from developer
Hi there! Thank you for using Gravity and sharing your feedback! Our team is working hard to improve subtitle accuracy, and you can expect much better, freshly updated subtitles very soon! We're also aware of the issue with going back to previous clips, and a fix is coming in an upcoming update. Thank you for your patience! :)
Request
Response from developer
Hi there, we're really sorry about the unexpected charge. We understand how frustrating this must be. Unfortunately, all App Store refunds are handled directly by Apple. You can submit a refund request at https://reportaproblem.apple.com, and they should be able to help resolve this for you!
Great app
For the live translation in videos: please add an option so that when a sentence ends, it doesn't jump straight to the next one, but lets you repeat it instead. Sometimes it's still too fast for me, even at 0.5x speed.
This app has a lot of potential thank you I am looking forward to subscribe!
Response from developer
Hi there! Thank you so much for your kind words and suggestions! We're planning to add these improvements based on your feedback in an upcoming update, including more kana practice and the option to repeat sentences. Thanks for helping us make Gravity better! :)
Keen to see where it goes!
- improved captions so that words are captured in their context, sometimes verbs or words are split into two when in forms like て so creating flashcards
- an option when watching a video to go card by card and tap to play, so it’s easier to repeat a card over when shadowing and working on pronunciation
- when searching words in the dictionary to be able to add to my flashcards collection
Keen to see where this app goes, recommend trying it out!
Response from developer
Thank you so much for the thoughtful feedback and support! ❤️ We're really glad you're enjoying Gravity! Adding words directly from the dictionary to flashcards is coming very soon, and we're working on improving the shadowing experience. We'll also add your transcript suggestions to our to-do list, as we're constantly working to make them better. Thanks for helping us improve Gravity!
Great App!
Response from developer
Thank you for the feedback! We’ll continue iterating on the flashcard experience, and you can expect the audio balance and card removal issues to be addressed in the next update. We really appreciate you helping us make Gravity better! :)
Money
Response from developer
Thank you for the feedback! We understand your concern about the price and are always looking at ways to make Gravity more accessible while continuing to improve the experience. We really appreciate your support :)
Good but not great
Response from developer
Hi there, thank you for the detailed feedback! We’re aware of both of these issues and have actually been working on them. A major update is coming very soon with fresh, more thoroughly validated transcripts for better subtitle accuracy, as well as improved sentence and word grouping so the subtitle boxes are easier to follow and don’t move as quickly. We really appreciate your feedback and patience while we get these improvements ready! ❤️
Tried a billion Japanese learning apps- this is THE ONE
And BRO- the flashcards are easily the best I’ve seen (I’ve had Quizlet Plus for almost a decade). It not only provides audio pronunciation but visualizations for the pitch accents as well.
Great to see that they’re pushing out updates so frequently and announcing all the changes. W APP!
Response from developer
Thanks a ton for the kind words! It really means a lot to us and keeps us motivated to keep improving the app and making it the best learning experience we can. If you ever have any feedback or feature requests, feel free to reach out to us at support@learngravity.com — we’d love to hear from you!
