### 1/5 — Abandoned app

*2026-03-17*

The app is no longer functional. You try to sign in and it just keeps loading. Tried to reach out to developer multiple times through multiple social media and App outlets. No response. It was a promising app, but I guess it didn’t take off so developer decided to abandon it? Anyway, that’s 120 bucks down the drain.

### 2/5 — What a terrible way to learn

*2025-02-07, version 2.0.1*

This concept is completely flawed, almost as terrible as school lessons, you choose a topic then it throws it out the window and it turns into a boring Spanish lessons and goes straight in grammar, I’d avoid this app, awful on-boarding, you have to use your Apple Sign-In which I didn’t want to do, so don’t bother and put your money into a professional tutor.

### 3/5 — Translation highlights stopped working?

*2025-01-10*

It worked at first but now when I click on a word I only see a blank bubble. can you please look into this?

### 5/5 — A great app

*2024-10-12*

A great way to learn interesting things and Spanish at the same time. I’m loving it

### 5/5 — Very impressed

*2024-10-06, version 1.2.2*

As a former Lingq user I must say this app is impressive. Really well designed and fun. The concept is very clever focussing on topics you like in easily digestible chunks. Helps to build your vocabulary in a steady, progressive way.

### 5/5 — Very well made unique app

*2024-10-05*

Unique beautiful language learning experience app! I think it will be a hit
