I've been using it a month trying to learn Japanese. I enjoy using it. The interface is snappy and the difficulty curve is providing just the right amount of challenge and I feel like I'm making progress. The menus need improvement. I think the addition of math is a really cool idea but needs work. I have solid math skills so I started at intermediate, competed unit 1 and part of 2 before skipping to the last unit. Unfortunately, it wasn't any more of a challenge than the 1st 2 units.

I absolutely LOVE this app, I started learning japanese, and I've also started using the music course! One problem....ADS I used to get ads like, every once in a while, but now I get them CONSTANTLY, and there's this one ad that completely breaks the app, it just shows a black screen with no x or nothing. Love the app, hate the amount of ads now 😕

It is a fun language learning game and a way better "time wasting" activity than getting lost in social media... however, it is a pitty that the web version doesn't have the same features / experience as the App. There's also a very high amount of repetition and little new words, or phrases to learn and thus further improve your language skills. Another feature I miss is the ability to chat with others. But as I said, it's fun and a reasonable time consumption activity 👍🏾
