1. [R6] Falou 3/5 · US Good App, Bad Content: The interface this app is easy and the algorithm works well, but the content is a total mess. The transliteration of some of the Japanese words is in fact Chinese, and many of the sentences (and I mean many) are unidiomatic, ungrammatical, and outright nonsensical. It should not have been released before a rigorous quality assurance on content was made. I regret the purchase
2. [R7] Falou 1/5 · US Uses AI to write nonsense: I have been studying korean and my wife is a native Korean speaker. The app seemed good at first but as the material got more complex the sentences became less intelligible. It started to have sentences which don’t have a sensible context and can’t be made with proper grammar. Don’t waste your time or money.
3. [R13] Falou 1/5 · US AI Fail: I downloaded Falou because it had Slovak. The lessons were okay at first, but when I clicked on the grammar explanations they were wildly incorrect. I kept using it because the repetition was helpful. Then the sentences became more ridiculous and nonsensical, which is fine, until it started incorrect usage in the lessons. I emailed a few times with the screen shots and the replies were us
4. [R21] Falou 3/5 · GB This could be so good but …: The sentences given in English to translate are nonsense! It would be more helpful to practice sentences you’d actually use!!! It’s starts well … practise the verb and expand but the longer sentences given are not proper sentences!! Disappointing
5. [R3] Falou 3/5 · US Started good, got worse: There is nothing more frustrating than trying to use an app that refuses to understand what you’re saying. When I first got this app, it was absolutely terrific. I was learning a lot of words, and I was correcting my pronunciation as I went along. Now as I go back over words, I already know, I am no longer getting the same results from the AI that’s judging my pronunciatio
6. [R15] Falou 3/5 · US needs improvement: has a ton of bugs and when i say the wrong word, it says that’s correct and after you buy your subscription, they’ll make you buy your a different subscription just use drops
7. [R27] Falou 3/5 · GB Ok. But problems with voice recognition: Good program but let down by poor voice recognition
8. [R30] Falou 3/5 · GB Turkish: Just started using app and learning a few words. Tho some of app is not working and occasionally not picking up my errors.
9. [R12] Falou 3/5 · US One flaw: Hello, dear creators of this app! I want to let you know that your app is quite excellent, but there's one flaw. It's the paid subscription. I can give you an idea: you could continue free lessons, but they would be limited to one per day. I think many users would like that, and I'd be very happy if you did it! For now, goodbye! · translated
10. [R16] Falou 1/5 · US Makes you pay in the middle of the session: It won’t tell you but it will give you free lessons at first then when you are in the middle of learning your class and starting to learn Spanish it will make you pay or you can’t learn Spanish and it makes you feel like if you don’t pay and download another app you lose all your progress and you will feel like you need to pay even though you can just do
11. [R18] Falou 3/5 · GB Good but too many adds.: This app is amazing and it teaches you to speak confidently really fast the only problem I have is the amount of adds. There’s an add after every lesson. And I understand it is for the app premium and it’s good marketing but it’s very annoying. I would recommend this app if you have the patience sit through adds or the money to pay £100+ a year.
12. [R34] Falou 1/5 · US Don't fall for it: Bro so I was just having fun at first then after you get to like 20 minutes of practicing it say "Oh you reached your daily limit" and I had to wait 10 hours so at like 11pm I can start practicing you think I'm going to start practicing at 11pm NO I get tired at that time and you have to pay money to learn more Spanish you think I'm going to pay that NO! Fix this don't fall for
13. [R9] Falou 3/5 · US Duolingo for Greek: This is the same as Duolingo. But Greek. So disappointed 10 chapters in still don’t know basic words like days of week numbers the only meal I can order is steak on a gyro or with bread and lemon or orange. I was hoping it would teach basics first . But I can say the big book is very good. I can’t say where is the bathroom or train station.
14. [R28] Falou 1/5 · US Same problem as DuoLingo: Creates phrases that aren’t useful for a beginner. Belabors word combinations that aren’t useful. Disappointed.
15. [R31] Falou 1/5 · US Frustration with this app: Some of the sentences make no sense at all. Also, the professions are limited to doctor and teacher, with no other professions covered. This is also very repetitive which is frustrating.
16. [R48] Falou 2/5 · GB Quickly becomes irritating: Started off well but sentences became ridiculous (I don’t need to know what a bloody hedgehog is!) and rather than detecting this when I passed over them it just kept repeating the same lesson. Maybe I have a delusion that this app should be more attuned to its user but I’m quickly becoming irritated with this app and may just cancel as the lessons are no longer fun or
17. [R4] Falou 1/5 · US Extremely bad app: Your app is a total mess and doesn't work at all.
18. [R10] Falou 1/5 · US Lost the (my words): After installing the chats, couldn’t connect it with my Falou account and the ( my word) turned gray
19. [R52] Duolingo 5/5 · US Increasing your intellect: This app is helping me learn Spanish
20. [R55] Duolingo 5/5 · US So useful and helpful: I’ve been learning German and there’s a lot of things to help you. There’s the lessons and then there’s the speed game or whatever and I love all like the prizes you can get with the gems. I currently am using the free trial of super Duolingo and it helps so much. I’ve been begging my mom for it. This is your sign to go on Duolingo and learn more of your culture just like I
21. [R61] Duolingo 5/5 · US Five stars: Duolingo is it the best app to learn different languages because if you’re new to it? and you constantly do Duolingo you start to become fluent in that language that you’re doing
22. [R62] Duolingo 2/5 · US Join super now!!: In moments between lessons, it shows you stats- “75% of learners that finish their course bought super!” While I don’t mind it, the app makes you buy ‘energy’ to actually learn every few seconds. With Ads While I do think Duolingo has helped me learn a few new words- though sometimes I forget them in my energy breaks (energy runs in 25’s, you have to watch one ad for every 5 ene
23. [R71] Busuu 5/5 · US Good for brokies: Im a highschool student and don’t have much money, so I use it free and i love it. Its useful, helpful, and doesn’t block the app after a few tries!
24. [R77] Busuu 5/5 · US Very useful: It’s vary good with grammar rules and having native speakers correct your written and spoken practice exercises.
25. [R78] Busuu 5/5 · US It’s good!: Nice clearly laid out curriculum, and I like the community feedback feature a lot.
26. [R79] Drops 2/5 · US Potential: This app does have potential and with a company like kahoot I’m sure they can make the adjustments. My main issue is the translations are wrong and you may not catch it if you are new to a language. This is important because it can cause misunderstanding it a conversation where it may already be hard to understand each other. I did make a note of this in the improvement comment box befo
27. [R80] Drops 5/5 · US Better than duo: Actually immerses me in the language, and not just shoving me into forced limited practice
28. [R83] Drops 5/5 · US Excellent: The blend of repetition, visuals, listening, and bite sized sessions work perfect for me. If anyone is learning Hebrew, this app is amazing btw!
29. [R84] Drops 3/5 · US good app but I dislike the AI usage: The AI image looks so off
30. [R94] HelloTalk 5/5 · US accessibility!: i love how the app is still usable without premium. i ended up buying premium anyway because the features are worth it for me and i believe this app truly supports learning and doesn't just want your money. additionally, absolutely LOVE how the AI is completely optional. too many platforms want to shove AI usage in every corner it does or doesn't fit. while i think AI can be revo
31. [R103] HelloTalk 5/5 · US Great Language App!: I love this app because I get to speak with native speakers who help me learn their language and I also help them learn mine. In addition, I get to meet new people and make friends.
32. [R108] Preply 5/5 · US Spanish: I’m learning such great Spanish so far and I cannot wait to learn more from Preply. There is a selection of languages but the teachers are great my teacher is truly a good one, nice to meet and overall not a rush. I appreciate everything she does for me like she is always kind and understanding. My teacher really takes consideration into her work and teaching. Also there is homework but i
33. [R111] Preply 5/5 · US Love it: I love that you can try different tutors until you find the right one for you. This app is the best Spanish learning app by a mile.
34. [R114] Preply 5/5 · US Love: Preply is my favorite for language learning. I found a tutor I love, shoutout to Anh L.! The sound quality is way better than I would expect ❤️
35. [R116] Preply 5/5 · US Spanish Tutor: I really recommend this app, is great if you chose a great tutor. If you would like to learn Spanish I recommend Carolina Z I just did a session and it went great and she really focuses on improving every area.
36. [R2] Falou 5/5 · US Falou is better than duolingo: I learned more on falou then I did on Duolingo with only on falou for like 15 minutes and on Duolingo two days already lol
37. [R17] Falou 5/5 · US The best!: it’s really similar to Duolingo, but it’s a little better than Duolingo as well. I learned so much already. This was recommended to me a lot on my TikTok FYP. I recommend this app. This is a really good app. Does it have any ads? You don’t really have to pay for anything? It’s pretty free. five stars!!
38. [R23] Falou 5/5 · US Amazing!: I’ve tried a few other apps and so far this is the easiest, and most helpful; if you’re looking to travel or have convos with friends this would be a perfect app for you! I’ve already learned more in a few lessons than (well let’s be honest) Duolingo has ever taught me
