Ratings and reviews

Good for learning. It's interactive and can do sessions based on the time you set. Only downfall is you can't search for particular words. Really disappointed in the lack of a search feature for when you need it. Paid €40 for the app and would like if it was a bit more helpful when you've forgotten a word or need one you haven't learned yet. Had to revert back to Google.

The energy doesn't recharge at midnight like it's supposed to, so you need to play dojo to get back the energy you lost yesterday, and you can only do it once. I watched it at midnight, switching from "energy bar refills in less than a minute" to "energy bar refills in 24h" all while remaining empty. It says I used up all my recharges (I did not recharge today). I'm stuck on Word Quest 1 "start learning a topic found in explore", even though I did it a few times.

I find this app extremely helpful, i use it to help ease the communication between my grandparents and I, or other Portuguese-speaking relatives. As someone who grew up as a second-generation immigrant in a European Portuguese-Canadian household, we didn't speak Portuguese too much growing up. It genuinely does a fantastic job with taking into consideration all aspects of learning a language that is suitable for different types of learners. Great job !
