### 5/5 — I LOVE THIS APP

It gives unlimited play unlike other apps and I love the ai chat feature- I’ve been using this app for about 3 months and already feel very confident with Spanish!!

### 5/5 — AWESOME APP

*2026-01-22, version 4.1.3*

Very gamified and fun to use. It’s very easy to understand and flow through.

### 5/5 — Cool chatting feature

*2026-01-17, version 4.1.3*

I’m impressed with the AI chat feature in this app. It offers practical advice on conversational etiquette and helps you communicate more effectively in different situations

### 5/5 — Language exercises & avatar

*2026-01-15, version 4.1.1*

I’ve been downloading successive versions of this app and it’s improving rapidly. The most recent version has a learning companion that you can customize with is pretty dope. The exercises keep getting better, I especially like the timed vocabulary quizzes with leaderboards and the conjugation quizzes as well. The chat tool is an extra bonus to practice conversation skills. Great all around app for progressing toward fluency.

### 5/5 — Learn language having fun

*2026-01-15, version 4.1.1*

Tried a few apps but I really this one because it goes a long way to making language learning fun. The exercises are fun and you can set up a character with custom look as your avatar. Fun times.

### 5/5 — Highly underrated up and coming app

*2025-11-14, version 3.7.0*

I used a certain app featuring a bird for a very long time to try to learn Italian. I was doing great until that app changed its entire structure a few years ago. Since then I have tried all sorts of apps to try to find something as effective as that app once was. These guys managed to create the first app that is just like that app used to be. I’m learning Italian again thanks to the great structure and organization of this app. Tons of great features, no intrusive ads, and a really clean and simple (in a good way) layout. Props to the developers and I hope they stick to this current formula as it’s perfect!

### 5/5 — Learning Croatian!😍

*2025-11-06, version 3.6.0*

Going to Croatia next year. I can’t wait to speak Croatian with my fiance’s family. I’m thrilled with the app. Thanks so much!

### 5/5 — Primo Language app

*2025-10-20, version 3.6.0*

### 5/5 — Incredible

*2025-10-16, version 3.6.0*

I can now speak languages

### 5/5 — Awesome app!!

Such a fun way to learn a new language! Downloaded today and already feel like I’ve learned a lot

### 5/5 — Super easy and fun

The app is super easy to use. I like the instant feedback. I picked it up really fast!

### 5/5 — Hyped!

*2025-10-06, version 3.5.2*

Hyped that free play is unlimited!!

### 5/5 — This app has it all

*2025-09-08, version 3.5.0*

PolyChat is a great app for learning French and lots of other languages. It’s got a chat tutor, lessons, a translator and vocabulary games. You can even make custom games to learn words from whatever topic you want. Sick!

### 5/5 — Learning Spanish: Bueno!

*2025-09-07, version 3.5.0*

I live in Texas and I am a new business owner. I have some customers who speak Spanish as their native language and so I’m trying to ramp up some basic knowledge. This app has all I need to practice conversations or translate phrases in real time. I can also practice conjugations to get to the next level of proficiency. I recommend this app for anybody trying to improve their Spanish or any one of the numerous other languages it includes.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Upper parts of text are cut off!

*2026-07-15, version 5.0.4*

Looks like it could be a good app however the ascenders of letters like d, f, h, k, l, b, as well as the upper part of capital letters are cut off. I see no way to set the text size to try and compensate.

### 1/5 — Waste of money

*2024-09-17, version 1.1.3*

Don’t subscribe it doesn’t work,waste of money

### 1/5 — Does nothing

*2024-08-14, version 1.1.3*

I purchased Pro, and it does not work. After I speak, all I get is this message on a red bubble: “Sorry, ChatGPT is not functioning right now.  Please try again later.”  Very disappointed, as this app would be very useful when I do not have a live person to practice language with. I soooo wanted it to work. Can I get my $19.99 back??? Prob not. 😒

### 4/5 — app issues

*2026-07-07, version 5.0.2*

its an amazing app but the match up lesson doesn’t show all of the options for some phones

### 5/5 — Very satisfied all around

*2026-08-07, version 5.0.5*

I've been using this app for learning french and everything from the flow of each course to the smooth designs and animations make it a fantastic experience. Looking forward to the release of version 6!

### 5/5 — Great app!

*2026-07-22, version 5.0.4*

I love this app. Great for learning new languages.

### 5/5 — Great App

*2026-07-12, version 5.0.2*

I came to this after Duolingo pushed me hard to buy packages. I found this up to be really amazing and you get everything without the Ads. They’re very few,if any, mistakes. Absolutely love everything this app offers.

### 5/5 — Easy and great repetition

*2026-07-10, version 5.0.2*

Been looking for apps that really started with the basics and had great repetition so it could get stuck and this app does just that

### 5/5 — I love it!

*2026-07-01, version 5.0.1*

It’s really good! And I quite like it, but could I request Russian to be added? Or Japanese?

### 5/5 — Loving this app!!

*2026-06-25, version 5.0.1*

This is really fun, kinda has a duolingo vibe to it but is more engaging and I am retaining more from my polychat lessons.

### 5/5 — Fun app

*2026-05-21, version 4.5.0*

Great for learning.

### 5/5 — Learning path is cool

*2026-03-05, version 4.5.0*

I just downloaded the new version and they changed the lesson buttons for a learning path. It took some getting used to but I think it’s a cool feature. You can make selections along the way like choosing between a review or a new topic. Another feature I like is the custom vocabulary quizzes. I created a quiz on slang words which is definitely off the beaten path 😊 Enjoying this a lot!

### 5/5 — Summer travels

*2026-03-03, version 4.5.0*

Summer is still a way off but I’m beefing up my Spanish skills for a walk about in Latam. PolyChat has lessons which is good for learning basics and a translator which is good in country. Don’t know of any other apps that have both so liking this one 👍
