Amazing app for learning languages!

Extremely happy to find languages I’ve always wanted to learn here, a wide variety of common and lesser-common languages, thank you! :) This app is fun and has a variety of ways to help you remember what you’ve learnt.

Helpful in learning Tagalog, but…

I downloaded and paid for an annual subscription for this app to learn Tagalog. The lessons include flash cards to learn new words. There are problems within the lesson that make it so you have to demonstrate that you can form proper sentences within the language you’re learning.

In the latest update, they added pronunciation lessons. This is a nice touch however, sometimes when I’m doing these lessons the app will take a long time for it to load and practically cause it to crash.

My gf and I are learning Tagalog together. I would like it if in the app you could add friends so that we can both check on each others progress and streaks.

Only one bad thing

Only bad thing is when I’m speaking the phrases correctly it marks it as incorrect other than that I have been learning well

Отлично

Отличное приложение, учусь быстро

This app is really good!! But a bit boring tbh

Unlike doulingo this app has a lot of languages, specifically south asian ones. It could be better if it was a bit more colourful idk

Updated review - voice tests working now

I am updating my previous review - the broken voice tests seem to be mostly fixed now. It has a problem understanding “song” (#2) in Thai, but for the most part, the speaking tests work now.

Offline Mode Not Working

I downloaded this app specifically for the offline mode being I am traveling and do not have cellular service. I tried the 7 day trial and offline mode was working fine. As soon as the trial ended and I paid for the yearly subscription, offline mode does not work anymore.

Pros cons

I loved it, but mainly because Duolingo didn’t have my language, also it added too many words I didn’t know without explanation for example in the conversation, I didn’t understand half of what they were saying. But other than that it was pretty good app!

Some translation issues

I started using this to learn Te Reo Maori. I would follow along with a dictionary to try and understand the breakdown of the sentences to actually understand the grammar and everything. I found that there were occasionally words that were wrong. Like patua being translated to mean “sure” even though it means “strike/beat” and the correct term is pātai mai (ask me) in the context of the sentence. It casts a bit of doubt on the learning as a whole if I have to check the translations for basic things.

Great app, speaking section always crashes

This app is great, but the speaking section always freezes so I have to either wait until I get a video capture error or continue restarting the app. I have lost multiple streaks because of this.

Excellent

I’m happy I found this app from Instagram . I used to have a different app for when I was learning last year a different language. This one came
Up on my feed I think because I’ve been researching Thailand . I want to be ready to communicate with as many people on my trip to Thailand this year . I’m so excited. Thank you

It’s a pretty good app, couple of improvements need to be made

In general, the app is solid. Seems to run OK and lead you along fine. The biggest problem I can see at least with the Tagalog is you cover the important words in the sentence but you’re not getting the connecting words as a new speaker I don’t know those so in general it’s a big hole in the lesson. For instance, ka na and ba come up in several lessons, but I never explained.

Not practical and feels AI constructed

Appreciate they are one of the few with Farsi available if not the only one. But lots of impractical teaching of one vocabulary word alongside very long sentences, the listening/speaking is very bad at recognizing correct pronunciation of words (my native Farsi speaker bf who grew up in Iran tested and confirmed this) and full words are broken up into multiple ones that make no sense when trying to put sentences together. There is basically no explanation of grammar either so lessons feel like impractical and confusing exposure. When I tried flagging issues, I get an immediate automated email that copy pastes my complaint with an apology but no real practical steps are taken. I regret paying for this app.

Get the app nowwww!!!

I really love this app and my Thai is getting better it’s not hard anymore so I can learn a lot of Thai for my trip!!

A review

I would say I haven’t tried it but I saw the reviews I would say Iam learning Bulgarian and I don’t know any Bulgarian and google told me this is a good app to learn Bulgarian and thank you developers for making this app this will a good app I hope

Amazing with another feature

I like how the lessons are set up, and they help me learn new vocabulary fast, but I wish there was a keyboard typing option for the sentence builder lessons so that I can practice my spelling. I like the ability to have both options available: clicking the words in order OR typing in my response.

Ling

It’s pretty good maybe make a update like other apps can do. Make the update be more like Duolingo!
