It's a very educational app that's filled with helpful lessons, but I'm endlessly frustrated with the placement tests. I've had "fill in the blank" answers marked wrong despite putting the correct answer, or if autocorrect capitalized the right answer. Some sections have you answer multiple questions, but if you get 5/6 correct, the entire section is marked as incorrect and you lose points for that part. And you can't retake the tests. Ever.

The videos are no longer playing and the developers aren't listening. Get this, if I mute the video it'll play. If I unmute it, it stops. The lessons depend on the videos, so if they don't play, you can't use the app to progress through the lessons. The developers claim the problem was fixed - it is not fixed. The videos are kaput!!!!

A solid, challenging, and engaging app for learning German, but not nearly as good as using the website. The lessons, while all similar in structure, seem inconsistent in scoring and saving progress. On today's lesson, I firmly answered 70% of the questions correctly, but was somehow given a score of 25%. I attempted to go back and fix a few exercises to improve my score, but could not access anything before exercise 8/12. Great content, but the UX needs work.
