### 4/5 — 碎片化时间最好的外刊阅读

*2026-07-31*

周中每天更新两篇 周末更新一篇 话题非常有时效性 观点也都是比较客观中立的 有音频这一点很好，孩子目前9岁可以自主阅读Level 2，做题正确率也很高，希望继续保持更新 如果对做过的文章有单词表的整理就更好了

**Developer response:** 谢谢你这么用心的分享！看到 9 岁的小朋友已经可以自主阅读 Level 2，还能保持不错的做题正确率，真的很开心。我们会继续认真更新内容。关于你提到的历史文章单词表，这是个很好的建议，我也会把它记下来，争取让读过的文章留下更多“学习痕迹”。祝你们继续愉快阅读！

### 3/5 — 伤心了

*2026-07-22*

从网页版一路跟过来的，现在发现连查单词都需要会员才行，确实很打断学习，只能被迫卸载了，曾经的初心真的很喜欢。

**Developer response:** 感谢你从网页版一路使用到现在，也很抱歉这次调整打断了你的学习节奏。

Level Read 网页版目前仍然可以免费使用，App 则是独立开发和持续维护的产品，因此采用了会员付费模式。并不是将原本免费的网页版功能改为收费，也不会影响你继续使用网页版学习和查词。

持续的词典服务、内容维护和产品开发都会产生长期成本，因此部分功能需要通过会员来支持。我们也一直在权衡免费体验和产品可持续性，希望它不是一个短期免费的工具，而是能长期稳定更新、陪大家学习下去的产品。

你的反馈我们收到了，也会继续优化免费额度和会员提示，尽量减少使用过程中的打断。谢谢你曾经的喜欢，也很遗憾这次没能继续陪你学习。

我的微信 meters，也很期待能直接听到你更多的声音

### 3/5 — 需要付费的功能太多，竞争不过同类产品

*2026-07-19*

其实全文翻译等需要付费可以理解，但是连查词都需要付费使用就有点过分了。同类型的软件，比如“不背单词”旗下的“轻听英语”，还有“百词斩”旗下的“薄荷阅读”，都没有这种限制，而且内容大而全。

你至少完整的阅读学习逻辑链得通吧？付费内容应该是更便捷、高效地帮助学习英语，而不是打断整个学习过程。希望这一点能够改进。

日历热图很好用，可视化做的不错；精选文章太严肃了，不适合泛读和日常化英语学习，可以适当的添加一些视频作为补充。

**Developer response:** 你好，非常感谢你如此专业、具体且用心的建议。我是 Level Read 的开发者 Xiaofeng。

关于你提到的查词功能，我其实也一直在思考和权衡。我们希望 Level Read 能保持克制，为用户提供一个简单、纯粹、不被过多功能干扰的阅读体验。但目前的确存在一个问题：非会员在阅读过程中遇到生词时，可能会被付费提示打断，影响完整的学习链路。

这里也补充说明一下，Level Read 的网页版目前仍然可以免费使用，App 则是独立开发和持续维护的产品，因此采用了会员模式。此前也有用户建议增加复制按钮，方便跳转到其他 App 查词，但你的评论让我重新意识到，这并不能真正解决阅读体验被中断的问题。我会重新思考查词体验、产品收入与长期可持续发展之间的平衡，未来也可能尝试一种更自然、更合理的方式。

关于你提到的几款同类产品，我也想补充一些 Level Read 的定位。不同产品的目标、功能边界和商业模式并不完全相同，因此很难只从某一个功能是否免费来直接比较。

在我的理解中，Level Read 不只是一个背单词或查词工具，也不只是一个提供大量内容的阅读产品。“分级”始终是我们最核心的理念：通过匹配用户当前水平的内容，降低阅读门槛，让不同阶段的学习者都能更轻松、更少负担地持续阅读。我们也会围绕这一目标，继续完善从选材、阅读到理解和积累的完整体验。

你提到的文章题材偏严肃、可以增加更多日常化内容和视频，以及对日历热图和可视化的认可，我都认真记录下来了。这些具体的反馈对 Level Read 的成长和完善非常重要。

再次感谢你的认真体验和坦诚建议。我的微信是 meters，也很期待有机会与你进行更深入的交流。

### 4/5 — 没有iPad版吗？

*2026-07-04*

手机版用得还可以，但小朋友要用iPad版啊。有时在iPad上会卡顿，点单词发音会没有声音，要退一下才会有声音

**Developer response:** 你好 

关于 iPad 版本体验不佳、偶尔卡顿以及发音无声的问题，我们已经记录下来并会尽快优化修复，提升 iPad 端的使用流畅度和稳定性。

如果您方便，请添加我的微信 meters， 也可以提供一下具体的 iPad 型号和系统版本，帮助我们更精准定位问题。

感谢您的支持与理解，我们会持续改进产品体验！

### 5/5 — 好

*2026-07-01*

查字过得很好

**Developer response:** 很感谢你的喜欢，祝你学得愉快😄

### 5/5 — 体验非常细腻

*2026-06-05*

每天使用下来感觉已经养成了固定习惯，保持了几百天，希望可以继续保持下去。

**Developer response:** 很棒，保持学习，持续进步，越来越好

### 5/5 — 太好了

*2026-05-20*

从来没有见过如此好用的英语学习app，全词翻译、分级读物、分级听力、原版材料，无论是平时自己学习还是高中备考都是一个不错的来源，要知道很多高考题目都出自原版。

**Developer response:** 太感谢你的评价了！能够让你满意，是我们最大的动力。希望你在 Level Read 上一直享受学习的过程。

### 5/5 — 评论

*2026-05-08*

很好用的英语学习app，非常的推荐。也希望尽快支持微信登陆和ipad适配。 说实话这是我用过最值得推荐的app，简洁，丝滑，好用。

**Developer response:** 谢谢你这么认可 Level Read！
你的鼓励对我们很重要。关于微信登录和 iPad 适配，我们已经在计划中了，会尽力让大家早点用上。希望你继续享受阅读的乐趣！

### 5/5 — 优雅的英语学习软件

*2026-04-21*

强烈安利！界面美观，流畅优雅，操作简单易懂。外刊分级很科学，生词翻译也方便，对学英语的人太友好了，体验感满分！

**Developer response:** 非常感谢你的推荐！很高兴你喜欢 Level Read 的设计和功能，我们会继续努力，让体验越来越好。

### 5/5 — 非常有帮助

*2026-04-21*

app设计上贴合我的使用习惯，点开文章，生词即点即查，释义和例句直接弹出，不用跳转。更赞的是“分级阅读”功能——同一篇外刊新闻，各种难度自动调整表达，你能清晰看到自己进步的空间。界面干净，没有花哨动效。
每天能读一篇原汁原味的外刊（经济学人、卫报等），积累的不只是词汇，更是地道的论证逻辑。长按句子可以看语法分析，还有AI总结段落主旨，对阅读和写作都有帮助。听完原文朗读再录音对比，口语和听力一起练了，对我英语学习很有帮助。

**Developer response:** 感谢你的支持和用心评价！看到你能从分级阅读、生词查找到朗读对比都受益，让我们很受鼓舞。我们会继续优化，希望你的学习之路越来越顺畅。
