    It's okay. I like that it explains more than Duolingo, but the lessons can get pretty repetitive, not to mention stuff that just isn't relevant. There were multiple lessons on talking about environmental pollution yet no lesson on animal names or buying groceries. Also, not happy that I have to use Spain Spanish instead of Latin American because the latter only had two levels to go through. I'm glad I didn't buy the lifetime subscription. Just a year then I'll probably drop it.

    I like this app better than Duolingo. There's zero gamification or extortion, just solid lessons in a good format. I will probably subscribe to the app. HOWEVER. There is an issue with the speaking exercises, especially with monosyllabic words (many languages), it doesn't register them. Based on numerous posts on reddit, this issue has been around and unfixed for years. It's frustrating, as speaking is a large part of practicing a language. So I'm giving the app 3 stars for stressing me out.

    Latest update is frustrating. I always do the daily practice, which is sometimes 5 exercises, sometimes 50+. The Practice icon had a little number bubble that said the number of items to do that day. This number is gone now and just a red dot. Why remove the count? Update: Thank you for removing the practice animation that popped up halfway through the lesson.
