there is a profile picture but you can't change it? the streak is only counted when you use it for a while (so if you just use it for 10 seconds it won't count, you have to do like 2 minutes at least) lacks landscape mode (and if you force landscape mode with a 3rd party app it fits the screen poorly (unlike duolingo)) when you have the unlimited option the lesson never stops so you have to decide yourself when it's time to stop and move to another one having to constantly drag the word to locations instead of just tapping the location the "drop" (=animation) when a new word is presented is quite long and you can't skip it the fact that you have to have premium in the first place for it to be usable and it's quite expensive (if you can't or don't want to get the cracked version) Tho I did the premium version so some of these may not be available on the free version, I wouldn't even bother using the free version as they let you use it just 5 min at once +the design is quite good and there aren't redundant cartoon characters or (de)motivational messages +you can just click on information about a topic and they list all words there if you learning while listening to music) +you can turn off the sounds completely unlike on duolingo (i.e. +option to suggest improvements to the app

In fact, I wouldn't recommend any app as the only source to learn a language. Though I won't recommend it as a singular source. it's good for reading stuff in your targeted language. If you're looking for a duolingo-esque app, then memrise is also better(or at least was last time I used it).Įdit: there's beelinguapp too. Be it your exams or learning your favorite song. But once you are comfortable with it, you can use it for anything. Though there's a learning curve for using it.
