Amazing

This app is SO helpful with learning Russian compared to that evil little owl ha ha. I am very happy to see where the stress belongs on words, and grammar rules attached to everything. This app is awesome for anyone who is serious about learning Russian.

amazingg!!

this is like the best app i've ever used to help me learn russian, it's really helpful especially with the stories with the quizzes and how you can pick out individual words from them and study them later, really motivates me to be consistent with practising 🫶

unnecessary changes reduce user friendliness

I do love Mishka. I pay for the app monthly. I’m on a nearly 50 day streak. I’ve invested at least like $20 so far in the app (by far more than any other app) and will continue to do so. But I’m disappointed by how often it changes. I’m really sad because previously, you could easily tell which stories you’ve read, since they were kind of highlighted in a way that indicated you’ve already done them. Now, it’s a small green check box that blends in with the picture on the culture page. And on the main stories page it’s a check on the side which isn’t as obvious as it once was. Also, they changed the way the characters look. Now they look chibi.. I liked before when they looked like actual people. It made me feel more connected to the stories:( now they’re just cartoons.
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!!

Response from developer

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.

Great and fun! Also serious

Everyone learning Russian try this app! It’s the one for us! I’m John an American guy. I wish I found Mishka sooner!
