Fun and useful app
Great app for learning southern Vietnamese. A good variety of activities and lots of ability to listen to words being spoken and learn to differentiate tones. Support is quick and responsive.
Not bad
I am in the unique situation that I have been studying Spanish for six years. I am constantly in search of the silver bullet app that will help me the most. This app is almost there because it allows me to focus on what I need to improve the most: my listening. The only problem that I have is when I am building the words using the crossword style exercise. It keeps trying to slide the screen back to the main menu, and therefore it is almost not functional.
Although extremely basic and very slow moving, I will use this to improve my listening.

Hi, this is a bug introduced by the newest iOS version. Please update to the newest app version.
Great for Cantonese
This is a great app for learning Cantonese. There is one bug that makes it hard to use sometimes which is when needing to select a Chinese character for a multiple choice question, half of the options are so tiny you can't read them, so I just need to guess. Hopefully this can be fixed soon
Response from developer
Was the problem solved in the most recent update? If it did, I'd be glad if you updated the review!
Cantonese is great
So amazing for leaning Cantonese and makes it as simple as possible so helpful
Solid Southern Vietnamese
Can’t really find another app that has this dialect. Also, the app is made a lot better for people who actually want to learn a language rather than just being a fun thing to play with.
Help
Never have I seen an app with so much effort put into it, at least for Cantonese, a language where there seems to be a drought in resources. Great job on that, but there is a problem, not all audio files do not load for me, making the audio questions impossible. I’m on an iPhone 12 mini
Response from developer
Hi, I think that was a temporary issue with the file server, not under my control. Please try reinstalling the app and see if that fixes it!
Rich app
Using this for Cantonese learning. Really rich app, and not bloated. Since update May 2026 it’s become even better. Thought that the sentence based lessons would result in me just memorizing sentences without understanding, but luckily that’s not the case. The Cantonese sentences used are pretty formal, so best to pair with other sources to figure out the best words for daily use.

Really good but hard to digest
I think this app is amazing because it offers southern vietnamese which a lot of apps do not offer and it goes super in depth. however, the information is really hard to digest and process because the lessons are very lengthy and are at times a bit confusing and lack clarification. For example when the lessons provides an example for a concept it doesn’t have an option to see the definition of the specific words. This puts a lot of beginner learners who arent good at vocabulary at a disadvantage . Also, the formatting made it really hard to sit through because it was just one dark cohesive colour for the background and icons. Learning in the app is like sitting in a dark room being with a teacher who provides little clarification and yaps and yaps and yaps.I personally have the attention span of a rock so the lack of visuals made it hard to remember anything. I just think it’d appeal to a wider audience such as children and teenagers if there were more visually interesting elements and the information was spread out and bite sized. If I wanted in depth lengthy lessons, I wouldve just watched a youtube video or took a class. Overall, I think the app is really good at providing a lot of information but lacks clarity and engaging visuals.

Thank you for your thoughts! I will be publishing an update with lots of visual polish in the coming weeks. It'll also add more ways to limit the amount of exercises, add more variety, and in general provide more help. Hope it can address most of what you wrote. Feel free to reach out for more ideas!
App is actually high quality
My only asks is a screen time feature, because honestly this app is the perfrct format for screen time blocking for more practice. Also do the lessons go beyond a1?
Response from developer
Hi, the lessons are based on a very thorough A1 curriculum, featuring around 1000 words and most grammar concepts found in each language. Many other apps offer less and just call it A1. That being said, this year I will be working on A2 courses for the most popular languages.
Great learning app!
I have been using the app for Cantonese and it has been very helpful! Enjoy the format of learning sentences and the constant repetition. Comparative apps are a lot more expensive for a lot less, well worth the money!
App crash
Would enjoy this app a lot more if it didn’t crash halfway through the lesson every time and resetting progress especially after paying for it.
English audio files did not load
As the title says, whenever I open the app and select the course that I want, it at first says to try again later. Then when I click it again, it says the audio files are 0% loaded even when I wait.
Response from developer
Hi, there has been an issue with the audio servers, which led to some users not being able to download the files. I have moved to a different provider and updated the app. Please update your app.
Best Cantonese learning app I have found
This is easily the most helpful app I have found for Cantonese learning. I would strongly recommend it to anyone looking for a Cantonese learning app. The developer is also very helpful and hard working, when there was a small issue, after a report it was fixed the next day. Strongly recommend trying this app.

Great App & Responsive Dev
I started using this app to learn Cantonese and it’s been awesome! I started with Japanese last year using a combination of resources (wanikani, bunpro, anki etc) and I was having a hard time finding an app/apps that could replicate that, but with Cantonese. Lingora meets that sweet spot for me as a catch-all app of grammar, character recognition, and vocabulary. I had also reached out to the dev to ask about a feature I thought would be awesome to see, and he responded saying it was already being worked on and would be released shortly! And then it was! Great app & I hope it continues to be great :).

Thanks! A Japanese course is also going to be released by end of February or March :)
absolutely amazing omg 🙏🙏
this app helps me with polish grammar more than any other app, i used to use duolingo, which never helped AT ALL. now that i use this app, i feel like in a few weeks i could talk to a native speaker!! i love how this app makes it repetitive as it really helps me remember with what i learnt the lesson before. this language learning app is the beat by far, and i think anyone wanting to learn polish should DEFINITELY get this app.

The app keeps forgetting my status
Twice now I have finished a lesson and next time I launch the app it forgets the progress
Response from developer
I’m sorry this happened to you, I will look into it. Can you send me a message from within the app so I can help you better?
Great app for Cantonese
I was just looking for audio lessons but am glad that you’ve included the Cantonese characters. Audio slow/ normal speed options - nice. Also like being able to select a character/ phrase for in depth definition.
Does it work offline? When traveling, for example.

Response from developer
Hey there, thanks for the kind review. The subscribed/pro version works 100% offline (among other features).
Love the app
Hi. This app had been immensely valuable to me. Thanks for developing it! Just wanted to ask for some help. I use Lingora on a device running iOS and the 'Ignore forever' button doesn't seem to work when I'm practicing vocabulary with the flashcards. Is it a bug or should I just re-install the app? Would reinstalling the app reset my progress?

Great for Cantonese
This is one of the best Cantonese learning apps out there, tried a lot, this is thorough and well laid out
Perfect language learning app!
It’s almost impossible to find a variety of resources for learning Southern Vietnamese. This helps with memorizing sentence structure and vocabulary, which is what I needed. Only thing is sometimes it’s hard to see the tone marks so you get marked wrong and “đi” shows up as “?“ in reviews. But otherwise, most intuitive language learning app for me so far.
