### 3/5 — Great App(needs improvement)

*2026-06-21*

This is a wonderful app, far better than most language learning apps you would find out there, it is graded by levels and has a suitable variety of materials that would not leave you bored. With that being said, there are a couple of improvements that could make the experience better :

Introducing the ability to search for a story and better still to sort stories by the year that they were published. Having to scroll all the way down to 2021 for instance to read a story that excites me is tiresome.

Improving the narration voice - earlier narrations sounded more human like (I believe), however i can understand why they might want to switch to a robot voice, I have no problem with that but it would be better if the narration were smoother. Although I must admit that their voice narration is much better than other apps i have used in the past.

Those are my recommendations.

**Developer response:** Hello Xmonterlopez, thank you for your review! We are happy that you use our Readle app to learn French. I've forwarded your suggestion to our team, we will discuss and consider adding it into our future update. If you have further feedback or questions for our app, contact us anytime at support@readle-app.com. Have fun learning French! Best, Selin

### 5/5 — É muito bom!

*2026-05-26, version 3.7.6*

Estou no nível iniciante mas me ajuda a ler as notícias, praticando a fala e depois tem exercícios pra testar a compreensão, flash cards das palavras pra memorizar e tudo de maneira bem simples e rápida. Gostei muito!

### 2/5 — Good but price is insane

*2026-05-12*

I have been studying french and obviously all apps are a cash grab, and this one is no different, it is helpful for vocab and comprehension but seriously? 50 dollars is the lowest subscription, i paid for it as i am in a speedy learning process, but if you have time, really do not waste your money lol

**Developer response:** Dear LorenCtrl, thank you for your review. We always have free rotating stories for you to learn. That way, you will never run out of new stories. For higher levels, we charge a small fee to keep the app alive. We would love if you could increase your rating for our efforts. Best, Selin

### 4/5 — Very good to help reading an learning

*2026-05-04*

The free short stories are good examples, not sure if it is good value yet so will look at other reviews first.

**Developer response:** Hello Bazerddow, we are happy that you are using Readle to learn French. Please, tell us what is missing for 5 stars? We appreciate your support and will keep improving the app. If you have any further questions, don't hesitate to write us an email at support@readle-app.com. All the best, have fun learning French!

### 4/5 — Good, but could be better.

*2026-04-02*

I like this app and it does what it says in the description, however sometimes when you click the play button to have the text read it will sometimes lose its place and then the highlighted text isn’t what’s being read.  Sometimes the reading will start over while the highlighted text continues to scroll like it’s following along when it’s not.

**Developer response:** Dear W7DOS, we're sorry to hear that you’re having a bad experience with our app. Your feedback is important to us and has been noted. Our team is working hard to improve our app performance. Please write an email to support@readle-app.com with more detail of what you experience and we will help promptly. Best regards, Selin

### 4/5 — 几点建议

*2026-03-20*

背单词板块可以再改进一下，希望可以加入读法和词汇搭配及阴阳性等，直接显示。另外希望可以有较长篇的阅读和新闻阅读

**Developer response:** 嗨，感謝您的評論與回饋! 我們已經將您的建議傳達給開發人員，我們會持續優化學習體驗，希望未來能帶給您更多有趣又有效的內容。如有任何疑問或是希望我們新增怎樣類型的文章，歡迎聯絡我們：support@readle-app.com  Bryant

### 3/5 — Not perfect

*2026-02-23*

It would be better if a person could save some of the grammar, or copy and paste, like the subjunctive.  It would also be good to search for certain grammar. It is an expensive app, and it’s not perfect

**Developer response:** Hello Alessio, thank you for your review! We are happy that you use our Readle app to learn French. I've forwarded your suggestion to our team, we will discuss and consider adding it into our future update.
