I really like LingQ, my only critique is how messy the unknown and known vocabulary gets, for Japanese. you have some particles and things labeled as words that aren't actual words. some better characterized into sentences to understand. It all seems auto generated, maybe not. But also I want to see different colors from unknown to known, the orange fade is almost unrecognizable and so I don't use that feature at all. Overall I truly appreciate the app for consolidating so much content! Worth it

The method works well but the app leaves a lot to be desired (especially for the price). The UI is also very annoying at times. Feels really difficult to find what you're looking for. You can't easily find other content by the same creator which is a huge bummer. UI is what is holding this app from 5 stars for me. Really needs a total rework in my opinion.

it's a good way to learn a language, but a terrible user interface. In the app, you cannot click a word to see its definition like you can in the browser. You can only click it to save it as a LingQ. If you're a free user, this means that you only get a popup saying that you're limited to 20 LingQs (even, for some reason, if you have none saved). This is just one of many issues. So the app is basically unusable, unless you are also looking up definitions in a browser or dictionary.

Please note that you can use the free version of LingQ. As a free user, you have unlimited access to all our content in all languages. It would just be a bit more manual to look up words that you don't know once you hit the 20 LingQs creation limit. Need more LingQs or a Premium trial period? Email me at tiagor@lingq.com.
