I really like the app in theory but the microphone does not correctly pick things up. I could say a word perfectly and it tells me it’s wrong, but then say a totally off topic sentence in the wrong language and it tells me I’m right.

Thank you for your feedback! We're sorry to hear about the microphone issues you're experiencing. We're actively working on improving our speech recognition and pronunciation evaluation to better understand various accents. Please try again, and we hope to provide a smoother experience soon!

good first impression, disappointing overall

Has a lot of flash up front, and certainly is a lot less repetitive than the original language app; however, is clearly built out by AI and therefore has several massive interface errors. Despite the instructions, I’m finding that the flash cards will never flip upon tapping (though they do move on with my swipes, which means I’m not really learning from them). As well, there are multiple examples where the instructions will have grammatical errors and spacing problems in the text, which really concerns me since I would likely be missing these errors in the new language, if they’re occurring. Definitely had fun trying something new, but I’m not sure verbi is for me! Sad.

Wanted to love this

Several features didn’t work - the flash card feature was glitchy. All the multiple choice were either a or b. The way words were introduced was strange

Fun app!

Cool and fun app to study with. One thing I’d like to see is the V logo animation change from happy to mad when it’s roasting us lol.

Thank you for your kind words! We're thrilled to hear you're enjoying the app. The idea of changing the V logo animation sounds fun, and we appreciate your suggestion! 💚

Some features not working properly

The subtitle sometimes doesnt math when you do the speaking part. Also, when you try to customize scenarios, sometimes there is no way to make the keyboard go away after typing or to proceed with the custom scenario .

Hopefully it gets resolved

Problems with payment

No way to try the application without a free period. It is not possible to refuse the trial period. I don’t need a subscription.

Multiple mistakes

The app does not offer what it advertises. The “grammar” chat lesson have nothing to do with grammar. They are only built-in AI chats that do not correct or teach grammar so they are not even configured to serve the purpose. Other “teaching games” in the app have multiple mistakes such as consistent use of archaisms (words used hundreds years ago, not in modern language). I understand that many apps are created with AI, but they still have to be checked and tailored for real experience. This is a very lazy built. I left a feedback to developers of the app with these issues and obvious language mistakes, but had not hear back. Besides that, the app was severely glitching while submitting in-app feedback. The kind of glitch I see when I developed web sites with weak AI models and have to fix that later.

Pronunciation

I like this app but I can’t suffer how slow it is to go back over pronunciation especially when it’s almost perfect. It slows my learning down immensely and it’s no fun having to sit through all of that extensive dialogue just to tell me my pronunciation is wrong when I can’t hear the difference. For context: I’ve been learning french for about 6 years so my pronunciation’s pretty good. Im less interested in perfect pronunciation anyway over being able to speak fluently

Thank you for your feedback! We understand that the speed of pronunciation feedback can be frustrating, especially when you're already proficient. We're continually working to improve the responsiveness of our app so that you can focus on fluency rather than perfection. We appreciate your patience and hope you continue to enjoy your learning journey with Verbi!

I want to love it but….

This app is buggy! It has potential to be amazing tho. I also wish you could choose to use Latin America Spanish vs Spain Spanish

Sinceramente, mercenários. Uma pena, porque é uma ótima ideia de aplicativo de aprendizado. Arrumem outro jeito de monetizar!

Agradecemos seu feedback. Entendemos sua preocupação com a monetização, mas nosso tutor de IA tem um custo real, o que nos impede de oferecer o Verbi de forma totalmente gratuita. Oferecemos um período de teste gratuito de 3 dias para que você possa experimentar antes de decidir.

Gets boring quick

Downloaded because of the marketing videos showcasing the "rude" mode. First of all, it's nothing like that.
The mode is already looking super repetitive within the first 5 beginner lessons. It just gives you the same few replies every time. It's not even a tenth as varying as it shows in the videos.
The style gets super boring very quickly as well. Even if you do something perfectly - we tried with a native speaker - you still don't get any positive feedback and even get told off and asked to repeat.
The practice conversations make 0 sense, like after the 6th beginner lesson you're expected to have 10 minute conversation with the AI just throwing full sentence at you when all you learned is hello, "my name is"?!
The word reminder notifications sent me nothing but the words I marked as I already know them at the initial setup process instead of those I learned since.. what's the point..?
Considering all of this the subscription is ridiculously expensive. Not to mention that it's also all over the place and the devs clearly not don't care: there are 12 plans, 8 yearly plans varying from £29.99 to £99.99; and 4 weekly plans from £7.99 to £8.99, all with zero explanation of differences.. if they can't be bothered to get packages right, you can imagine how the rest of the experience is going to be

Could be great 🫠

Need some more bugs fixed! Distortion on the written responses make it illegible when the assistant is providing responses. Kinda defeats the purpose of learning.

Not user friendly

Since last update the app is not very user friendly and it’s very frustrating to use.

As a user I leave the app immediately. Hope this feedback can help.

The new version is not as good

The first time I downloaded it was so good and fun, now they rebuild it, and it gets stuck sometimes and the UX / UI is kind of annoying, it’s not as friendly anymore :(

App payante

On a même pas la possibilité de tester l’app qu’on nous impose un payement des le début . Et vos trucs de 3 free days trial là c’est la même chose puisqu’il faille ajouter une carte de débit

Nous comprenons votre frustration. L'IA de Verbi a un coût réel, ce qui rend l'application payante. Nous proposons un essai gratuit de 3 jours pour vous permettre de tester le service avant de vous engager, mais cela nécessite effectivement d'ajouter une méthode de paiement. Nous espérons que vous pourrez apprécier notre offre.

You HAVE to pay to even open the actual app:(

Wouldn’t let me open the app without having me to pay for a yearly subscription for 80 dollars

Hi! Just to clarify, you don’t have to pay $80 to try Verbi. We offer a 3-day free trial with access to the app, and you won’t be charged if you cancel before it ends. Our AI tutor has a real cost every time it’s used, so we unfortunately can’t offer unlimited access completely free, but we cover that cost during the trial so you can try Verbi before paying.

This scam

They took 49.99, I explained that I didn’t meant to keep the subscription and tried to explain it to apple but nothing.
Not an app to use and apple did what it does best. Taking money away.

We’re sorry about this. Refunds for App Store purchases are handled entirely by Apple, so we cannot approve or deny them ourselves. We enable refunds in cases like accidentally forgetting to cancel a trial, but Apple reviews the customer’s account and refund history and makes the final decision. Unfortunately, we have no control over their decision.

I like it

L’application ne fonctionne pas pour le mode conversation. Au lieu de me faire dire les mots en espagnol il me demande de les dire en français

Bonjour ! Il s’agit d’un problème connu causé par de rares hallucinations de l’IA, qui peut parfois utiliser la mauvaise langue. Cela se produit dans moins de 1 % des conversations. Nous avons déjà mis en place un correctif pour empêcher au maximum ce comportement. Merci de nous l’avoir signalé !
