did not think it was any more effective than duolingo for a language app. not that it was the worst, but I think it was very limited and unorganized for its program. the ads are way too over the top for what it provides. at the end of the day, you’ll still have to do […]

The microphone doesn’t work well at all with this app. I’ve been trying to learn Russian, and despite saying a basic 2 word greeting phrase a thousand times over, it either doesn’t pick up any recording at all or it says I didn’t say it right. It’s to the point where it’s impossible to do […]
after reading through the other reviews, all 4000+ of them. There is no possible way this app is rated 4.4-5 stars. It. Is. Terrible. To other developers, DO NOT TRAIN YOUR AI MODEL ON MULTIPLE LANGUAGES!!! They have limited recall, and AT MOST! Could teach 3 languages 100PERCENT PROPERLY!!! Please don’t go for the money […]
Jumpspeak uses deceptive advertising!! There is no mention of a “Premium AI” subscription plan until you purchase the “Premium” plan. Then you learn you must spend an additional $98.99/year for the AI features. Again, AI features are included in the Google Play description, but there is NO MENTION of the “Premium AI” plan which must […]
I’m not exactly sure how I’m supposed to learn anything. The lessons are short, and don’t really give you a chance to really learn anything. By the next lesson they show you more of the same, just more words that you don’t understand, and in longer sentences. If you go to the ‘vocabulary’ section you’re […]
The very first lesson has a bug that won’t accept the correct answer. This does not bode well. There was absolutely no way to report it. So far, even at the very basic level it is asking for complete sentences with words I’ve never heard before. Now my only thought is how to get my […]
After seeing adverts for this app, it looked amazing, and I was intrigued to purchase, but I’ve since discovered it’s lacking in so many places. Nowhere can I learn the verbs. The conversations are way too difficult for a beginner, and even the learning words section has sentences without any helpful explanations. You have to […]
I feel like the app is timing out when I’m speaking – it’s not always picking up everything I say. Then when I am heard completely, there’s no feedback on what I’m doing right or wrong. Just a percentage score which doesn’t tell me anything. So it’s OK but it’s not this wizz bang Gen […]
An excellent application and very helpful for learning a language. The only reason I didn’t rate it 5 Stars is I feel like the info provided to get me to purchase was a bit of a “bait and switch”. Everything I watched prior to purchasing the program showed the students having and practicing conversations in […]
It’s like a broken low budget Duolingo. I have to skip lessons because it has on and off issues with speaking. They say to sign out and on again but it still doesn’t work with random speaking lessons. I came on with about 6 mo of Duolingo and wanted more with a different approach and […]
i downloaded this to supplement my japanese language learning and used it for a day or so and then canceled the subscription and deleted the app because the content wasn’t that great compared to other apps i’ve tried. months later, i find a charge on my credit card and i’m stuck with a $99 yearly […]
THEFT!!!! BEWARE!!!! I signed up for the $69 annual membership and they charged me $399.99. I did not sign up for any extras and provided my receipt to their “support” team who have been giving me the run around for weeks. Looks like I’m going to need to file a fraud charge against them. What […]
Kept showing me words and phrases it never taught and expects you to get the answers. Japanese was telling me to say phrases using the Japanese alphabets that I never learned. The conversion mode picks up the apps own voice and thinks it’s your voice. The price is outrageous for what you get. The AI […]
They don’t tell you that the advanced AI features (tutor, chatbot, etc) are part of a 2nd tier membership until you’ve already payed for the 1st tier. In the Spanish module, sometimes it’ll give two options for a response (“Eso es cierto/En absoluto”) and the voice will say “barro diagonal” (“diagonal bar” in Spanish); the […]
Sometimes it’s not working properly. overall, it’s generally an okay app. I don’t love it or hate it. so far it’s been a good experience. But sometimes it doesn’t speak when it should or it doesn’t have any sound when the other person’s prompt (computer) comes up and and then it’s my turn to talk […]
I’m learning Mandarin Chinese. The language recognition and speech to text is pretty bad. The images shown when practicing a conversation are comically incorrect. The frequency of having a woman’s voice with a man’s image or vice versa is so frequent, it is like they are trying to make a b-rate movie. All the advertising […]
I wish during the Speaking review it showed the super literal translation. Otherwise i find myself repeating words accurately, but I’m not mentally connecting them with a meaning in practice. Also, the language I’m learning doesn’t require Subj/Verb/Obj word order, so having the primary exercise be, “order the following words” isn’t meaningful for learning the […]
My star rating is reflective of business practices, not the app. The app is great . I signed up for premium service specifically for the AI chat. And it was great, I used it periodically for about 6 months. But they the changed their subscription model, and now the normal premium service no longer includes […]
I like the way the lessons are set up with four parts to help you learn to hear the sounds and write the words. The pronunciation lessons are very difficult, and sometimes, they seem like they are not catching what you say. My husband is a native speaker, and sometimes, even he can not get […]
What I like is the focus on speaking and pronunciation. I paid extra for the AI chat bot, which is an good tool, but not as good as just talking to a native speaker, which is often cheaper. Like similar apps, you’re expected to learn grammar implicitly by pattern recognition. May have fixed bugs by […]
