When I started using dulingo, i liked the simplicity of the layout of the screen, i was able to easily navigate my goals. And practice the needed repetition. Since the recent update. I find it very difficult to even navigate the lessons and completing the goals needed to complete each lesson. I hope they bring back the original layout rather than this complex layout.

I really don't like the new linear design. Sometimes I just want to do a story, other times I might want to do a bunch of lessons in a row - just let me choose for myself! Hints are nonexistent which is SUPER frustrating. How are you supposed to learn grammar with no upfront explanation? A tech issue: Sometimes the mic doesn't work unless you minimize the app first. This only happens with the large button with a picture of a mic on it, other voice buttons work fine.

I love DL, but it has issues. Too many to list, but I'll say a few. 1) "can't listen now" is too easy to click by mistake. Should be moved or need another tap to confirm. 2) I never want to "jump to the next level" and skip content. Need an option to disable this pop-up completely. 3) "Perfect!" at the end shouldn't cover/obscure the text. I like to read it back after I check my answer, but "Perfect!" gets in the way. 4) Sentence discussions desperately need to be re-opened. They help a ton.
