Awful Voice recognition
Dear Jan and team, I’m using spanish beginner track now. Learning method is quite nice. With 30% of sentences, that I speak website states that I said something entirely different. Or, even worse, it tells me that I’m not there yet …. but shows in writing that it got me right and that I got it right as well. Still saying “….almost, try again”
Drives me crazy!
Task: say “and you”
in Spanish. AI refuses to recognise it properly and states that it got me saying “et tout”, which is French in the first place and should not belong in the Spanish course. It does sound like “y tú“, though., just an entirely different language……
False recognition goes on for five, maybe 10 new attempts, very frustrating.
I have made screenshots of those interactions, if developers would like to see them.
P4 L9: Ines heard “que vas a comer”, target is “Qué vas a comer”
I have a screenshot of stating that the very sentence is recognised but it keeps telling me that I am still not quite there.
Voice recon should be a core skill of your service, right?
iPad 8, Brave browser, w or w/o AirPod Pro 3
Update: Safari with ongoing permissions for the mic works as bad as Brave Browser.
I think I am not going to continue after my three days free trial and I am not going to spend money for being a beta tester that has to pay for his participation.

Waiting for Spanish beginner track
Dear Jaap and team, I’m itching to begin with spanish as a beginner. Please also add learning logic for other languages than English to the given target language, I.e. German->Spanish

The Spanish beginner track is live on the web app, mobile will follow next week. Can we get 5 stars now? :D Jan
The best language app
I’ve tried lots of this type of app. This is the best one. It feels like it’s created by someone who understands language learning. Most of these apps will speak with you or give you lessons, but there’s just not a lot of substance to them and they always miss the mark on the tools that actually drive learning. This app doesn’t force you to try to drive conversation in a language you can barely speak, instead it drives the conversation and lets you listen and respond. It also has tools that will show you where you made mistakes or how you could phrase things more naturally. The way that it restates your words and corrects makes the lessons stick much like they stick in real life when you make a mistake and are corrected.

Thanks so much! We're always working on making the experience even better but thanks so much for your kind words. Jan
Ti tusen takk
This is SUCH a great language learning tool!!! And their support term is STELLAR!!!
I’ve now been using this app for two years, I’m currently at the top of the leaderboard in the All Time section for Norwegian. I use it next to daily as possible. I speak small amounts of 28 languages and 4 I can converse in, even if with poor grammar. I’ve been interested in learning languages since I was around 10 and I’m now 49. This app is BY FAR all other ways I’ve used to learn a language. If you’re «just thinking» about signing up, do it!! I recommend signing up for the year to make it the most affordable over the year. And to justify it, MAKE sure you use it every day. This is only going to help you reach your goal, that much faster.

Thanks! Jan
Very good to help speaking
Once you learn some basic grammar on a beginner level course, I genuinely think that if you spend at least 30 minutes to an hour on this app daily, you will really take your language skills far. Just treat it like a teacher and a speaking partner. I’m learning Chinese on it
