### 3/5 — Uygulama

*2025-02-25, version 1.3*

Çok beğendim seslendirme filan çok iyi ama daha geliştirilmesi gerek ve çok az cümle var bence harika bir uygulama olabilir geliştirdiğiniz zaman gelip 5 yıldız vericem

### 4/5 — اللغة

*2025-02-11, version 1.3*

اتمنى ان يكون فيها ايضا اللغة العربية الفصحى

### 3/5 — Zu wenig Einstellungen

*2023-11-13, version 1.3*

Ich würde mir mehr Einstellungsmöglichkeiten wünschen und dann auch gerne die Nutzung der App bezahlen. Die Funktionen auf der Website sind großartig, aber die App ist unpraktisch, um (portugiesisch) zu lernen. Die Sprecher sind zu schnell und die deutsche Übersetzung als Sprache fehlt komplett in der App. So kann ich nicht nebenbei lernen, ohne auf das Handy zu gucken.  Ansonsten ganz ok.

### 3/5 — Appli moins riche que le site

*2023-11-12, version 1.3*

J’utilise le site Loecsen pour travailler la langue catalane. Elle n’est malheureusement pas disponible sur l’application…

### 3/5 — Funktioniert nicht

*2023-11-01, version 1.3*

Nachdem ich die App auf mein IPhone  heruntergeladen habe, erhalte ich leider die Meldung, dass ich das kostenlose Audio-Pack herunterladen muss. Aber wie?? 
Bitte um Hilfe..
Anita

Program guzel fakat cok butik bir hata var.

### 1/5 — Infelizmente não abre!

*2015-11-05, version 1.1*

Resolvi baixar este app e nunca consegui usar...na descrição disse que é gratuito mas recebi um SMS dizendo que foi cobrado $1,00. E o pior de tudo é que quando abro o app ele fecha sozinho. Tentei entrar em ctto com o suporte mas não obtive resposta :/

### 1/5 — Não presta!

*2015-10-26, version 1.1*

Sempre que eu tento abrir ele fecha sozinho. E isso não apenas no meu próprio aparelho, mas no de minha mãe (MotoG) e meu irmão (IPhone 6) abriu. Por isso nem percam o tempo de vocês! xx b

### 1/5 — Can't open

*2015-10-03, version 1.01*

Well, I was looking forward to start my language lessons but the app won't open up. Deleted and downloaded again to have the same result.
Too bad......

### 2/5 — Bien

*2018-10-27, version 1.3*

Pas assez d’utilisation pour faire un bon feed-back.
Si il pouvait y avoir les textes aussi en phonétiques ça serait le top

### 2/5 — WAY too fast

*2017-10-19, version 1.3*

The pronunciation of the dialogue are too fast. They should give an option too slow down the speed of the speakers. 
Other then that it’s a good app for learning. 
PLEASE put an option to slow down the speed of the speakers.
I wrote too you guys 3 times already.
Can you fix it. It’s very discouraging for beginners of the language they are trying too learn.

### 5/5 — Great selection of languages

*2024-07-14, version 1.3*

One of very few apps to include breton, plus many other languages. Great for listening comprehension which is one of the most important things to learn for travel imo.

### 5/5 — Great App

The user interface is intuitive and user-friendly, making it easy to navigate through lessons. The app offers a wide range of languages. Highly recommended for anyone looking to pick up a new language!

### 5/5 — No urdu option on the app - but on the website

*2024-06-26, version 1.3*

Hi, I love this app, but noticed there is no urdu option on the app version. I was wondering when you would release that as it is featured on the website version.

Thank you :)

### 5/5 — Incroyable!

*2024-05-15, version 1.3*

Très bonne application pour apprendre une langue. Je trouve généralement que les autres appli nous apprennent des choses inutiles dans la vie de tous les jours. Ce qui n’est pas le cas de cette application! Le seul point négatif, c’est qu’on est pas corrigé sur la prononciation
