Stay with Duolingo

It’s buggy and the French pronunciation is terrible , laughable in some cases. I bought the facebook hype and now wish I’d stayed with Duolingo. I won’t be renewing and will not be swayed by the bs advertising on meta.

Intransparent und voller Upselling

Der Refund-Prozess ist viel zu versteckt und unnötig kompliziert. Kaum hatte ich das Abo abgeschlossen, wurden mir direkt mindestens fünf weitere kostenpflichtige Erweiterungen angeboten, die man angeblich ebenfalls unbedingt benötigt. Dadurch entsteht der Eindruck, dass das eigentliche Abo bewusst unvollständig gehalten wird. Auf mich wirkt dieses Geschäftsmodell höchst unseriös.

Brilliant Customer Service

This is a great app and has been very useful as I try to learn German. I’ve recently had cause to contact customer services, they were excellent. So helpful. I highly recommend using this company to learn a language.

Steals by auto renewal

Thieves / the business model is set to not refund the auto renewal even when I deleted the app months ago.

I don’t trust it

I tried the app and it felt clunky at best was not impressed so I canceled and asked for a refund I was promptly given the refund and then months later I was billed for service again

Just Average

Learning Italian using my iPad. A little glitchy at times. The volume on the Italian dialogue is not balanced. When listening to some conversations, the woman’s voice is fine but the man replying to her can difficult to hear. The voice recognition is not the best either. Doesn’t always pick up words I said perfectly. Started passing up on the role play lessons because I’m unclear how to properly respond. This app needs some work at least for Italian.

Much too simple for B2

Sorting words in a sentence? Come on!

Best app

I appreciate you can slow down the pronunciation as it is difficult for me right now to distinguish the words.

Terrible AI generated app

Do not fall for the marketing videos online. This app is absolutely terrible- you can tell none of it was ever checked by an actual human before publishing. All of the topics go from being ridiculously easy- repeating the same 5 words for 3 lessons, OR insanely hard. Like ‘please translate this sentence into the given language’- how can I do that when I don’t know the language and you haven’t taught me the words?!
The AI conversation tool is even worse. You can follow the script, but the app docks points because you haven’t brought up the words they requested (even though they didn’t include those words in the script). If you don’t follow the script, the AI still can’t hold a basic conversation so the resulting convo is absolute nonsense. It’s awful, in all languages (I’ve tried a couple). ATP I’m just waiting for my subscription to expire

Just started but fun so far

Waste of money

Cumbersome flow and half the “speakers” sounds as if they are drunk. A complete waste of money. I want a refund.

Handy!

Japanese always at my fingertips.

Don’t believe the hype

I purchased this because it claimed to be better than Duolingo. The pace is slow and you can’t progress at your own speed. Also the AI Bots are snarky.

Illegal subscription renewal process - do not buy until they fix this!

Don’t buy this product and until they fix this billing fault! I cancelled my renewal to this service a month ago. After receiving zero reminders about subscription renewal timing, and not having logged in or used the the product in almost a year. A month later, Imagine my annoyance to have a failed payment notification when they’re STILL trying to charge for another 12 month subscription a month later anyway, BUT have now removed all options in the customer portal now to cancel. Only option is to update my card for payment. This is not an only illegal to not provide an option to cancel a service. It’s extortion. Seeing as all the emails are from no reply addresses, now I’ll have to waste an hour of my life reporting to Apple and blocking through my bank. I’ll also be making a complaint to the ACCC.
If you as a potential customer don’t want to go through the same just to cancel, DO NOT buy this product until the company have verified publicly that they have ceased this illegal billing practice and taken some accountability for this completely unethical sales practice. Tech bros who rely on this non reminder approach to exploit the fact that it’s slipped off your radar and steal your money under the justification that this was covered in their t’s and c’s are the literal worst of humanity. Do and be better!

Email kerfluffle

Now 1 star. Ugh.

Two things about the app that are frustrating right now I’m hoping they can fix them both!

The first - if you sign up on their Instagram ad with one email, and it’s not the email in your credit card account, then the system has a problem letting you into the iOS app.

The second (which is arguably a more serious problem) is if you have completed some lessons and then log out and log back in… the system does NOT remember the lessons you completed to that point.

But wait - it gets worse. Never heard back about the “missing progress” info, so I decided to cancel.

I thought it canceled properly and we get a refund Such a day or so I asked where the refund was. I mean, it seems only fair: if you’re billing me at the start of a trial, when I cancel I want the money back.

So out of curiosity I wanted to see what the status was, and I assume after they confirmed my account information. They said if you canceled within 7 days, you should receive a credit in 3 to 5 days. It depends on your card/bank.

But for some reason, I had a bad feeling about this, because I realized after they should be able to see the date I canceled.

So I googled how to request a refund from these folks. Turns out it’s a separate page and login method to request a refund for the charge on your trial. I’m not gonna say it’s deceptive but the website where I first canceled really looked like I had canceled everything, but apparently that only canceled the renewal.

Not all Languages

It doesn’t offer Indonesian, if your going to hype an app up atleast have this available for people. Just has basic languages to learn so I didn’t go any further once I couldn’t find Indonesian. Back to the green bird it is.

Do not get this app

This app is not good for learning any language. They don’t teach you the fundamentals. They just jump you straight into conversations with words that you never heard before, they don’t define those words, and that you have no idea how to pronounce. I regret purchasing the app and wish I could get a refund.

Unusable

The voice recognition simply does not work. The app is unusable. Requesting a refund.
