I really wanted to like it đź’”

Almost unusable, tried to click into Syrian Arabic but the AI voice started speaking a completely different language

Audio doesn’t match

Was excited to learn Punjabi but some of the audio is a different language than Punjabi and the pronunciations don’t help you at all as they are in an American accent and incorrect

Kept Crashing

I didn’t even get to USE it. Didn’t get the past the question stage where it asks where you’re at. Kept crashing me out. I deleted and reinstalled over and over but still never worked.

Don’t waste your time

I first heard about this through social media and thought it would be amazing as it didn’t focus on mainstream languages, but then I found out this app forces one to pay after doing a self-assessment on what your level is within that language. I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS APP!

Vibecoded Pricey App

Wasted 5 mins doing the assessment just to find out it’s paid.

Like I’m down to pay any amount, but it’s obviously AI vibe coded. The text to speech is very off from what Punjabi sounds like, despite what the Instagram reel skit suggests.

It’s so bad that I can make this app for free in 30 mins. What a shame

refreshed my progress

I really love the app, its hard to find these languages in other similar apps. But, I spent over an hour on the app for it to refresh and all my progress to be gone forcing me to restart :(

Great intention but too many glitches

I started the Pashto lessons. Most of the audio doesn’t match the word in the lesson. Some of the written Pashto did not match the transliteration. The lesson review quizzes ask things that weren’t taught in the lesson. This app can be really great with the right fixes.

Won’t let me cancel

I have been trying to cancel the free-trial from the get go and continuously would get an error message. I’m happy there is an app for these languages but just because of the technical issues I wouldn’t recommend.

Not for Persian

Not accuracy audio for question for Persian.

Good app but there are flaws

I love that there is finally an app out there covering South Asian dialects, as someone who can understand Punjabi but speak very little this could be something to help my confidence in speaking! However I got the 3 day trial and already on day 1 I’m noticing that there are flaws. when going through the tests the speaking doesn’t make sense and I even heard it speak in a different language at one point! There’s are of clean to do bit after that this app would be excellent!

Needs improvement

A lot of the voicing for questions don’t work, don’t let you repeat to hear a question again. The narrator will say a “Red is laal” but the answer choice is not there

Full of bugs

Vibecoded app that is full of bugs

Great concept but app needs to be updated and ensure it’s working

Love the idea, Been trying to find somewhere for over 3 years to learn one of the languages offered on your app but the audio doesn’t work which is a bummer. I really thought i’d be able to start learning and be able to speak the language but until audio is fixed it’s not possible to learn anything

Improvements

I like This app a lot and have been looking for something like this for years but I couldn’t find it. Unfortunately the app has some problems. When I close the app and I go back on it it resets all my progress and makes me restart from beginner level 1 again. Also I picked the premium option so I could learn Pashto and Dari but when I tried to switch to learn Dari the app wouldn’t allow me.

good idea, needs work

I really wanted to like this, since I’ve been hoping to learn some Nepali because many of my patients are from this region. However, the app doesn’t work well for this language, and I suspect it doesn’t work well for anything but Dari. The in-app text refers to the language being learned as “Dari” no matter what you are learning, and the other languages added seem to be added slapdash to fill out the app. If you wanted to make a Dari learning app, just do it. Adding other languages via AI without the same level of care isn’t the way to go. The app also reverted my home screen to Dari after I looked at other tabs even though I was learning Nepali, and I struggled to change it back.

The third lesson offered me 10 new words but only reviewed 6 of them during the lesson.

The flashcard feature wasn’t working either, it had collected no flashcards after 3 lessons. The advertised translate feature also only works for Dari and Pashto.

I am also dubious of the text pronunciation, as often it sounded very American, and sometimes it didn’t work at all.

The intake quiz doesn’t seem to work, the screen at the end said “15 minutes” when I had answered 10, and when I looked at my user info it said I was learning for “partner/inlaws” when that isn’t what I answered. I doubt this quiz influences your learning experience at all.

I also don’t get the sense that it is adaptive at all, despite claiming “AI power”.

I will stress again that this is a GOOD IDEA. I admire the mission, and would love to use an app like this someday that works. However, it isn’t ready yet, and the other listed languages that aren’t the primary focus of the creator need genuine investment, not just AI filling. It isn’t functional enough to use if it was free, and certainly not enough for paid use. I would come back eventually if it was a more developed app.

Please fix

Hi this is a great concept for an app. I would absolutely pay for this. Been asking dualingo for urdu / pashtu / punjabi for years so this is absolutely perfect! Unfortunately, after using the 3 day trial, I’m realising this app doesn’t actually work.

The audio doesn’t work, the “test your level” part doesn’t work, it skips straight to the beginner level. Then I cant skip the beginner levels, I have to actually go through each level. Also closed the app, went back the next day and it reset to the first level which was annoying.

Alot to improve! Please fix and let me know so I can come back and actually learn my language lol. Looking forward to this app reaching its potential!!

Great app!

Helped me learn multiple new dialects!

Learning a lot

I always wanted to learn a different language other than English. And wallah let me tell you something this app teaches you in ways where you think you’re going to spend 5 mins a day then you look at the time and your 1 hour in. It’s entertaining and you learn quickly. I don’t know how they did it but they cracked the code of fast language learning. If you’re thinking about getting this stop thinking and do it!
