### 1/5 — Cannot test it out

*2026-06-12*

There is no way to test out this app unless you signup for the trial which means you will need to cancel it before being charged. Shame on Apple for allowing this. Also, you have to provide an email address just to find out the above information.

**Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback. We'd like to clarify that the 30-day free trial gives you unlimited access to all language courses and every feature in the app, so you can fully explore everything before deciding whether it's right for you. You can cancel your trial at any time before it ends, and you won't be charged.

### 1/5 — Cannot connect to App Store

*2026-04-26*

Keep getting a message saying it cannot connect to the App Store so I can’t bend try the app. Very disappointing since I have been looking for advanced Spanish.

### 5/5 — Perfect for long term retention

*2024-10-19*

A fantastic app that I recommend to all my students as a means to memorise material on an ongoing basis. I’ve personally been using it for years. I’ll be mentioning it in the training handbook I’m currently working on.

### 5/5 — Best app for learning languages

*2024-09-10*

The last few update really improved the app. Thank you so much for bringing the offline mode back.

### 1/5 — Пропали курсы

*2024-01-25*

Все купленные курсы пропали после обновления.

### 1/5 — Не качественно работает сайт

*2024-01-15*

Оплатила курс Прошел месяц он так и недоступен Абонент плата списывается регулярно Писала в поддержку Ответа нет
A1-A2
Extreme English: Basic
Изучение английского словарного запаса для начинающих.

### 1/5 — No longer works offline, slower

*2023-12-07, version 2.0.2*

One star because of two negative changes introduced recently.

1. No longer works while offline. Online makes going through the repetitions slower.

2. No longer respects the user's time zone.

I intend to revisit if/when the app is fixed.

### 1/5 — No longer works offline, slower

*2023-12-07, version 2.0.2*

I am a subscriber and have been using SuperMemo since 1993 when I bought my first version of the app for Commodore Amiga. The method works well, but I am giving the newest version of the iOS app 1 star because of two negative changes introduced recently. No longer works while offline, slower (online), ignores the user's time zone.

### 1/5 — neue Aktualisierung / nowa aktualizacja

*2023-11-23*

Ich will die App AB SOFORT OFF LINE nutzen, nutzen können! Ich hatte auto-Aktualisieren ausgemacht; vergeblich- diese hat sich trotzdem aktualisiert….! Damit hat eine sehr wichtige Funktion verloren und ist nur eingeschränkt nutzbar. Es gibt auch keine Möglichkeit, sie zu die alte Version zurückzusetzen.  Deswegen nur ein einziger Stern. Sonst hätte es mehr sein können.     /      Chcę OD ZARAZ używać aplikacji off line! Wyłączyłam wszystkie automatyczne aktualizacje; bezskutecznie - pomimo to ta apka się zaktualizowała…! W ten sposób straciła jedną ze swoich ważniejszych funkcji i możliwe jest tylko ograniczone jej używanie. I nie ma możliwości przywrócenia starej wersji. Dlatego tylko jedna jedyna gwiazdka. Poza tym mogły byłyby być więcej.

**Developer response:** Dzień dobry, aktualizacje wykonywane są przez system Apple, nie mamy wpływu na ustawienia aktualizacji użytkownika. Opcja offline zostanie udostępniona w ciągu najbliższych 3 miesięcy.

### 1/5 — Don’t use flash card apps that don’t allow export

*2023-11-09*

I’ve been using SuperMemo for a couple years now. v2.0 introduced some changes that make it significantly worse (soooo slow) for reviewing flash cards, so I’m switching to another service. I have about 2000 flash cards saved in SuperMemo and support let me know there’s no way to export them, so I’m going to have to copy them over manually. If you want to just use the premade courses, go for it, but if you plan to use this flashcard app as a flashcard app, please think twice before putting all your data into a system that won’t let you pull it back out. Learn from my mistakes, it will eventually bite you.
