Not what it used to be
Originally this app had written lessons that taught you practical ways to start speaking tagalog (or Taglish). This made a real difference, which provided a reference point if I needed to remind myself of any grammar points, and accelerated my speaking skills. Now it appears these guys have jumped on to the AI bandwagon with the AI generated content not teaching any Taglish at all while at the same time giving very limited access, all for a rip-off price - it would be cheaper speaking to an actual Filipino. This new version of the app is terribly disappointing, and I would prefer the older style lessons back, even if they publish it on their website.

Used to be great, now it’s AI slop
Just how another review mentioned; This used to be a great app with handwritten lessons! They were split up into categories and even provided helpful notes that included important context. It was a perfect cheat sheet for travelers, or Filipino-Americans that were familiar with some words, but never knew how to speak the language. Now it just uses generative AI prompting. There’s no soul, and no important notes or explanations that help with the dialogue aspect. I’m disappointed and disgusted!

This app has been RUINED recently…
This app used to have hand-curated lessons, split into categories. Not the prettiest UI, but the content and writing felt sincere and was super helpful.
I recently opened the app again, only to find out that all my lessons have been deleted, and all that remains is an AI chatbot that lets you ask 3 questions for free before requiring you to pay an insane amount. I hit ‘restore purchases’ and it returned nothing to me - they LITERALLY deleted everything I had access to before and gave us a chatGPT wrapper you can only use for 3 prompts.
Stay away from this app, all previous reviews are unrelated. You may as well just use chatGPT for free…
Disappointing, garbage, greedy move.

Can no longer access purchased lessons/restore purchases.
I bought this app a few months back and now they’ve updated and I’ve lost all access to my previous subscription.
Love this app!!!!
I grew up listening to Tagalog spoken between my relatives however the language was never explained or taught to me. This has revolutionized the way I speak, absorb and understand Tagalog. I have never learned the beginnings of a language faster!
