Just what I was looking for
love mishka 🥹 and the developers
Mishka has helped me with my Russian like no other app or class I have taken on Russian. I can’t stress enough that this was the first time in nearly 7 years of passively learning Russian that I FINALLY understand grammar. I love all the grammar chapters and the stories. I spend so much time listening to the stories and trying to really hear words without reading along with them (to get better at recognizing Russian words being said, not just reading subtitles). But it’s so nice that I AM able to click on any word that has me stumped and save it to my flashcards.
I love love love Mishka 💖 And the developers have been so helpful!

Thank you so much for this, and for sticking with Mishka through the changes. You were right, and a lot of what you wrote is already changed for our next update, much of it because of your review: the real character photos are coming back, finished stories and culture lessons get a big, obvious done badge again, the text and colors are back to the softer classic look, the lines on the vocabulary cards are gone, and the four buttons are back in their 2×2 boxes. If anything else bothers you, or if there's anything else you'd like to see us add please email us at support@getmishka.com.
Amazing

unnecessary changes reduce user friendliness
The worst part is just how everything looks now. All the text and stuff. Such an unnecessary change. It’s especially bad in the vocabulary card section. The note lines make the cards harder to look at for long periods of time. (Now I see the lines when I look away from my phone.) Also, the bottom screen got rid of the box shape for the four buttons, now they’re all in a row which I don’t like.
I just don’t like unnecessary changes. And this is like the second big unnecessary change Mishka has had. Developers change for the sake of change. Not because it’s actually useful. Who wanted this? :[
Anyway.. I still think this is one of the highest quality Russian apps. Just please no more changes!!
