User reviews

Seldom works on phone

This works on my desktop most of the time, but almost never works on my phone.

Good Organization

I love how you can learn what you want, when you want. However, I do believe you should bring the spaced review back to be able to review everything you learn. And if it’s still in other languages, at least add it to ASL.

Great idea, but very buggy

I am trying this for Russian and Spanish. This would be an amazing app if it didn’t have so many bugs. Spanish was especially problematic. Quizzes didn’t show the things you’re supposed to guess. I hope these are improved. Once I listened to the Russian vocabulary, I couldn’t go back.

App won’t let me make account

I’d love to try this app, but when I try to create an account an error message pops up and tells me something went wrong. I’ve tried closing out and restarting. I have also deleted the app and redownloaded it, but I still keep getting the same message. Would love to be able to actually use it

Good but…

Ya need the equivalent of the duo lingo owl. Maybe Joseph smith. The angel Moroni?? The Liahona? A characterized version of “The Gift of Tongues”? How about a visit from a certain burning bush? Maybe if I’m a foolish virgin, I don’t get my lamp lit for the day.
