Great Language Companion
Excellent app for learning Norwegian
After using Mjølnir for a couple of months, I learned so much more than a full year of Duolingo. I understand present and past tenses. The explanations are clear. The listening cards use different dialects, which is especially important to me because hearing and comprehending the language is challenging for me.
After using Mjølnir for six months, I now use Duolingo as a supplement to this app for Norwegian. I am now able to read news articles in Norwegian often figure out what a word is or means based on the knowledge I have obtained from this app.
I reached out to the team and asked if I could revisit the alphabet section, and they were able to quickly reset it for me and provided clear instructions on how to proceed. I loved that there was a real human being available to help me when I needed it.
If you are looking to learn Norwegian, this is the app to use.
Excellently Designed Learning Tool, Especially for Pronunciation and High Frequency Words
Fast forward to now, I have a trip to Oslo and Bergen coming up next month, and I have picked back up my efforts to learn Norwegian with this app being my primary learning source. This app has done wonders to help me learn the fundamentals of the language. I never came to understand the pronunciation of Norwegian words at all through Duolingo and in just the first week of using Mjølnir I’m already really starting to get it down. It is also teaching me many of the most commonly used words and phrases in contexts such as transportation, dining, etc. that will be helpful on my trip.
I have already recommended this app to everyone I know. I appreciate the effort the development team has put into this!

Thank you for your review! It's always special when people take the time to describe in detail the improvements to their Norwegian that our app allows them to achieve. All the best with your studies, enjoy Norway when you travel there!
False advertising regarding in-app purchases
Response from developer
This is simply false, as this (updated) video shows: https://youtube.com/shorts/hrPGbQGIn1M The app is marked as "In-App Purchases" on the App Store very clearly. They might have changed how and where that disclaimer is displayed after the first download. If you think it's inappropriate, we suggest you address this with them, not us because we have zero control over that. Additionally, within the app, at the end of the first completed session, you are asked to start a Free Trial, clearly labelled as such (also shown in the video). By anyone's judgment, this would mean that the app will be usable for free for a limited period of time and that payment is to be expected afterwards. Subscription prices are shown on the Store listing in the currency of the Storefront (again, with the visibility Apple decides to give it) and on the FAQ of our landing page.
Wonderful app
