Loved this app until recent updates. I don't know what's causing it, but it'll just seize up in the middle of a lesson, acting like it's loading something (spinning circle) but nothing ever happens. I can't use the back button. I end up just closing the app entirely, trying again, and being foiled AGAIN. It's so frustrating.

I really wanted this to be good since I've been stuck in the upper intermediate and lower advanced for forever. Unfortunately it seems the app doesn't always test the vocab in sentence reconstruction, some of the clips don't match the vocab at all (especially because one word was simply a person's name), or the clip says it so quietly you cant hear it. AI also regrettably checks your "speaking" so there's no way of knowing if you actually did it right (and I know I couldnt possibly get 100%).

i love the concept enough to have bought a membership to try it out. it's an accessible way to learn and drill vocabulary, which as someone who is trying to learn japanese but doesn't have a ton of time to farm anki content, is amazing! only reason i'm not giving 5 stars is because often, especially on the watch tab, the videos or audio has trouble loading. otherwise, that would be an amazing feature! to drill words you learned without overloading on new vocab? great! besides that, it's awesome!
