Ratings and reviews

I used a free trial version for a couple of days. I really liked the exercises, dialogues, app interface. But i won't be buying the full version, at least not right now,because there's no option to forbide other people correcting my exercise. I was really annoyed by strangers telling me "and next time speak louder" In the situation when i wasn't asking to correct me and didn't know that the speaking exercises that i was completing would be showed to everyone. Didn't like it.

I'm learning mandarin and the app is really great in A1 which is why I purchased the pro version, but every level after gets progressively worse. No explanations, the people pronucing the words are mumbling and sound uninterested and you are just bombarded with long sentences to memorize and a lot more of them are so specific that would never use them. Like talking about the financial crisis.

I would give 5 stars if there are more lessons for Dutch. For German, there are a lot more lessons! Update after finishing A1&A2: I personally don't like the Flemish pronunciations. It can be very confusing. For beginners, I really don't think it's necessary to mix Dutch (which is spoken in the Netherlands) and Flemish (which is spoken in Belgium).
