### 1/5 — Worst app in the whole multiverse

*2019-10-05, version 1.5*

This app makes you rage every 2 seconds and it’s rating should be 0 stars that is literally how bad this “language” website is and it doesn’t help you learn it just helps you rage and the answers they give are usually wrong and when you put the correct answer it comes up with a simile and says that you are wrong and I could make 100 essays about my complaints and how bad it is!!!😡😡😡😡

### 1/5 — Bad game

*2018-10-16, version 1.5*

Don’t play mrs Finley gave me a detention

### 2/5 — I cried

*2018-10-14, version 1.5*

It’s good at making sure that I remember words, however- I often want to cry halfway through completely tasks. It’s very easy to mess up and can often end up with you hating the app entirely.

### 1/5 — Crap

*2018-10-05, version 1.5*

ABSOLUTELY TERRIBLE

### 1/5 — Crash!

*2018-09-25, version 1.5*

Every time I open the app it crashes, I have tried deleting the app and then re downloading it several times but nothing is fixing the situation.

### 1/5 — Terrible game

*2018-06-12, version 1.5*

This os probs the worst game ever made!!!!!

### 1/5 — Rubbish

*2018-04-18, version 1.5*

Don’t bother getting it. Crashes all the time. Not even worth 1 star.

### 2/5 — Vocab Express

*2017-12-17, version 1.5*

For my school I need to be able to do  all 3 options. The only 2 that are accessible within the app are French-English and English-FRENCH. I need to be able to do French-French like the website. Sort this out please as it is not acceptable.

### 1/5 — I really dislike this app

*2017-12-04, version 1.5*

It is not modernised at all it is very hard to manoeuvre around the app. It is hard to learn with the app as it is not ergonomic.

### 1/5 — Not worth it

*2017-11-28, version 1.5*

I use this for homework in school it's good I gotta say but it's just stupid if you do one question wrong makes you do the rest of the block go back the question you got wrong makes sure you get it right this time then you have to restart the stupid block again it's completely useless don't know why my Spanish teacher thought it was a good idea to use this

### 1/5 — Just don't

*2017-11-28, version 1.5*

This is a website that's design and ui is ok compared to others. But the entire point and execution of this website is honestly the worst part of every week this is set for homework. I've lost sleep and had anxiety brought on by my teacher sitting 5 of these to do. I feel ill when I hear it and I now resent languages and my teacher. 
This is easy to cheat on and the fact that if you get one wrong you have to do it again just encourages cheating. You don't learn anything or practice anything your just copying and writing it in. This website and app is pointless

### 1/5 — Please fix this app!

*2017-10-03, version 1.5*

I really would like to use this for essential revision, but it states there is a network error every time I try to start the app.

Please listen developers and fix this.

### 1/5 — Dosen't work

*2017-07-04, version 1.5*

Internet problem even tho i have internet 😒

### 1/5 — awful

*2023-09-03, version 1.5*

i absolutely despise this app, the fact that if you make even the smallest mistake on one word you have to start the entire block again is incredibly frustrating. the people assigning the work have absolutely no idea how long this takes and how insanely dull it is. this has literally made me hate languages and resent my teacher alongside feeling dread every time I see homework set on here.

### 1/5 — I HATE IT

*2023-03-03, version 1.5*

whenever i play vocab express i accidently tap on the launch learning and im stuck in it and then i cant get out of it! Even if i put the acent the wrong way its wrong!!!!😡😡😡༼ つ ◕◡◕ ༽つ༼ つ ◕◡◕ ༽つ༼ つ ◕◡◕ ༽つ༼ つ ◕◡◕ ༽つ

### 1/5 — Terrible wouldn’t recommend

*2022-11-26, version 1.5*

A frustrating app that never ceases to ruin my day every single time I’ve logged on with its slow loading and irritating method of memorisation. With any other app like Seneca it is fine to complete work on there however with vocab express it can take upward of an hour due to the constant resets and technical issues. When deleted I will give 5 stars.

### 1/5 — Worst App

*2022-02-03, version 1.5*

Worst app in history

### 1/5 — Spelling and typing words by accident and pressing ‘ok’

*2021-10-06, version 1.5*

When I accidentally put the wrong spelling, I tend to click ok and I get it wrong, and I’m getting mad about it. So I want 2 try’s every task/question.

### 1/5 — Bad

*2021-05-07, version 1.5*

1 question wrong means boom, restart

### 1/5 — A disgusting site and app

*2021-03-05, version 1.5*

This is a horrific site and app that has an awful system. It is extremely unfair and will penalise you by forcing you to do an entire test again if you make so much as a spelling error.

Also, the app is abysmally formatted and is básica useless for an iPad, as you are forced into portrait mode. It also looks disgusting.

### 1/5 — This app isn’t even worth one star

*2020-12-03, version 1.5*

The irritation of having TO RESTART THE WHOLE THING OVER AGAIN JUST BECAUSE YOU GOT ONE THING WRONG IS NOT IT. Do not get this app, if your teacher makes you, tell her to kindly jog on.

### 1/5 — Irritating

*2020-03-20, version 1.5*

Its a good way to do your homework on your phone quickly however its very irritating that if you get one letter or word wrong or forget the accent on the letter you have to do the entire thing again and again which is enough to annoy anyone

### 1/5 — Mistakes

*2019-12-15, version 1.5*

It is really so annoying  if u make one mistake it makes you start again which you is really annoying hopefully they can change this

### 5/5 — Good

*2021-09-10, version 1.5*

Easy for me to do before school on my phone so I don’t get into trouble :)

### 5/5 — Dank

*2018-06-28, version 1.5*

This 💯 teaching me them 🇪🇸 tings got I would share this ting round the snap you kno. Definitely would dab on them none Spanish speaking playas. Me gusta , Gracias for Gucci app 👌🤩🤫😘🧀🤙

### 5/5 — Good bro

*2017-09-20, version 1.5*

I'm using this for my gcse

### 5/5 — I like it

*2016-12-30, version 1.5*

At first I wasn't a big fan but now I like it. The only frustrating thing is that you have to start all over again when you get one wrong, though I guess it's only helping us learn.

### 5/5 — Awesome!

*2015-11-04*

This is a really good app, it really helps me with learning Latin! The scoreboard is really good because everyone wants the highest score and so they use it more which makes there Latin (or whatever language) improve.

### 4/5 — not bad; convenient

*2020-01-04, version 1.5*

much better than the non mobile friendly website. sure it’s annoying sometimes because misclicks will make the answer wrong but it has to cut off somewhere. design is a bit boring but it works.

### 4/5 — Gud

*2019-11-04, version 1.5*

I fink it’s a gud app 
Dunno what these peeps talking bout 

But maybe like sum ppl said , it’d b betta if there was the matchup challenge like in the website and I guess that’s basically it .

4 stars tho from me 
I only use it for scl anyways 
Great app , helping me a lot to get the language faster . Helped me improve in languages 

Cheers , Tanya

### 4/5 — Pretty chill

*2019-10-08, version 1.5*

It’s not as good as the website but if you are entering their tournaments and want to do questions or revision on the bus then this is really good

### 4/5 — Homework

*2015-06-03*

They've made it a lot easier but stop making us redo the  test when we have one incorrect answer and then we have to do it again. Also when we leave let us continue from where we left of and not just forget the correct answers and not save the wrong ones! It takes the mick

### 3/5 — spanish to spanish

*2017-09-22, version 1.5*

overall a p decent app but i remembered having spanish to spanish listening on here and now it doesn't and my spanish teacher has a go at me for not doing it when it's not even on there??
