All the tools in this app are honestly excellent but the marketing is deceptive, overall a solid app all things considered

I’ve been using duo lingo which is good but this explains the reason behind the language and how to pronounce much clearer.

*2026-06-17, version 29.8*

It asked me to leave a review so I’m leaving a review

### 5/5 — My opinion

*2026-06-13, version 29.8*

I love this SO much, it tought me a lot. Stuff even Duolingo couldn’t. In my opinion, I think it’s a really great app because it teaches you stuff from the beginning then leads you on from there. On this app your allowed to go back as much times as you want, your even allowed to take as much time as you need. I give this app a 5 star, it’s really help me learn German!!

### 1/5 — Bad

*2026-04-27*

### 1/5 — False advertisement

*2026-04-12, version 29.8*

In the description you say 100% free nothing about paying to you download the app there you go. You have to pay $30 a year not happy with the false advertisement.

### 1/5 — LIARRRSS

*2026-03-13, version 29.8*

y’all are liars this ain’t 100% free😭😭 it makes you pay 20 dollars a year to unlock all features GET OUUTTT DONT SPIELEN WITH ME.

### 1/5 — Not fit for all

*2025-07-18, version 29.8*

I’m not a beginner, so it’s redundant for me to start from the very beginning. This app used to have everything unlocked, so it was a great resource for anyone to start or continue from their level. Now everything is locked until you go thru each one.

### 1/5 — Does not show spelling

*2025-07-09, version 29.8*

When you are practicing or taking lesson lessons, it does not show you the spelling of the word that it is asking you to describe. It will only give you the audio of the word being pronounced, which makes it incredibly Difficult to remember which word it is talking about especially if you are hearing impaired. Overall, the app is pretty good and I love how descriptive it is when it comes to verb conjugation, nouns, pronouns, adjectives, and so on. This is my only complaint.

### 1/5 — Forced new version

*2025-05-26, version 29.8*

Old version was great, the new forced version is very annoying.

### 1/5 — Not free

*2025-03-13, version 29.5*

Not free. It makes you pay. And no way to cancel.

### 1/5 — Greedy app companies

*2025-03-13, version 29.5*

I had been using this app for a month or so and it was perfect and it was all free. I took a break and come back to the app’s layout being completely different. And now i have to pay??? I hate corporate greed.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2025-01-28, version 29.0*

The audio don’t play

### 1/5 — Made me want to commit die

*2024-10-19, version 29.0*

Use doulingo or something

### 5/5 — Good

*2026-08-20, version 29.8*

I miss when this app used to be 100% free. When you ignore the price and the duolingo ish setup, it is a good app

### 5/5 — Pretty easy

Simple 👌

### 5/5 — Good

*2026-08-09, version 29.8*

### 5/5 — Good

*2026-08-05*

It's a 10/10 app for beginners, who want to learn German. It will help you with knowing new words with pronunciation. It makes learning so fun. The only drawback is the subscription amount. It is too much.
Rest the app is great for new learners

### 5/5 — I’m part German

Good and easy to lead. Interface is very easy and understandable

### 5/5 — Fun and Fun

*2026-07-26, version 29.8*

I studied German in High School but now it’s all coming back to me! It took me a year and a half to go through all forty lessons but I am happiest of all! Very simple setting, no fuss, you do it when you have time;) 
Highly recommend! 🤩💕

### 5/5 — Nice app

*2026-07-23, version 29.8*

I have both the Spanish and German version of this app and their both pretty good I don’t subscribe but I am ok with it since honestly having a limited amount of hearts forces me to think harder so as not to waste them

### 5/5 — I love it

*2026-07-16, version 29.8*

I can read Karl Marx with my eyes closed now.
