After I made the payment, the app has become very unstable. My learning sessions are constantly interrupted and I cannot study smoothly. This is very disappointing, especially after paying for the service. Please improve the app urgently. I paid for this, and I expect a better experience.

this is a good app, especially if you want to improve your pronunciation and fluency.. there 2 down sides.. one is the menu is so confusing, don’t know which lesson to take first, for example grammar, vocab etc.. second, I can’t reset my history lessons, I want to jump in after long time vacuum..
It’s a great and effective tool in learning English at home, but it crashes all the time. It’s frustrating that it crashes in the middle of the lesson or role-playing session, and I need to repeat from the beginning. Please fix this issue.
Pros: excellent organization, easy to use, vast and excellent content, helps identify and correct pronunciation mistakes. Cons: Elsa always finds pronunciation mistakes. That was frustrating until I used another AI to generate a perfect audio, then I asked a native speaker to answer for me. That’s when I realized that for Elsa nobody can pronounce […]
Upon starting the ELSA app, users choose a purpose like “Interview” or “Personal Growth.” However, changing this selection later requires creating a new account, as there’s no in-app option to switch. While the app offers various AI tutor accent choices (American, British, etc.), the pronunciation evaluation system consistently defaults to American English, meaning your speech […]
I’m shocked that I got charges over $158 out of nowhere! I didn’t consent to that. I was just using the app, no trial. There were bugs also saying my prononciation was “excellent,” but the score would show 43%. Now it tells me how I ran out of lessons that’s fine but give me my […]
The app works well overall, but there’s a major issue: the pronunciation practice and daily lessons don’t sync in real time across devices. My pronunciation progress only saves on one device, even though I’m logged into the same account on another. This makes learning less consistent and a bit frustrating even when I’m a premium […]
Awesome app! Worth a lifetime subscription, if you are not a native. I got one. Minus one star for inability to import a list of phrases. I literally spend an hour every other day to add my phrases one by one.
I’m having trouble with the app; it’s been crashing a lot lately. “The server took too long to respond to the request”. This isn’t a fault with my network because I’ve tested it with three different Wi-Fi connections and one with mobile data, and the result is still the same. The application hangs and stops […]
I am really frustrated to this app, I’ve subscribe the pro package, but the result is surprisingly disappointed. The app can’t hear our voice clear that makes us repeat so many time. I’ve pronounced exactly like the narrator but stil rejected. It makes me angry and frustrated. I start to feel regret about the subscription. […]
The training is very helpful to learn pronunciation and different words. You can make it better if you remove unnecessary buttons like retry and again we need to click the record button. So when I’m trying multiple times the focus is on which button I should click. 2nd once we click continue we cannot get […]
This app sucks; the server is too slow it takes forever to complete a single exercise, although I have a premium subscription. The content is good but it’s haywire ,it is you who have to choose what to learn and you try to complete an exercise which takes hours. I wish I didn’t invest my […]
You should check the server’s response time issue. I encounter this bug a lot: “Server took too long to respond to stop request.” In addition, It would be great if I could chat freely with the AI coach, not just on set topics. The learning path options feel a bit limited. I want to learn […]
If you want to practice your English, this app’s good for you, but if you’re really focusing on “to learn,” this app would be annoying. I asked the AI to teach me grammar, but it constantly asks me to practice dialogues. The pronunciations part also shows inconsistent results. So yeah, it’s a great app for […]
The app is good👍 It would be nice to have a widget for the app, with a day streak, maybe with practice daily lessons – it will serve as reminders for its purpose. Also, when daily lessons involve pronunciation or stress words, ideally there should be a button under the transcription that, when clicked, would […]
Frustrating and depressing. “Please increase the distance to the microphone”, no I can’t I’m using built in microphones in earbuds. Also using “you speak xx% like the native speaker” as the only way of evaluation is seriously eating away at my self worth. Like I’m worth less than native speakers. Western supremacy. It’s also very […]
If anyone wants to see a bunch of in-app purchase popups, this is a great app. Cause they only care about selling their pro package. Not to teach you anything. Very hard to navigate through. Horrible experience of in app purchases. This app just doesn’t want you to learn anything. All they care is to […]
Mixed feelings. As a person who’s close to a C2 level I find it useful that the app helps to identify when certain sounds are pronounced with a foreign accent which helps to fix them. However, the intonation exercises are broken – I even recorded the correct pronunciation from the app and tried to play […]
Not accurate! I love the idea of this app as it would be incredibly helpful to receive feedback on my words pronounciation. The problem is that this app rates ALL of my words as excellent. I did several tests where I intentionally mispronounced the words almost to the inaudible level, and I still got the […]
Please be aware that the app quietly increased the price of monthly subscription from $3.99 to $11.99 and yearly subscription from $29.99 to $74.99. There used to be frequent offers to get the yearly subscription for as long as $23.99! Also please note that there are frequent price fluctuations, and often the price for the […]
