About this app

Doomersion (formerly Doomlingo) lets you learn languages by doomscrolling a feed of short videos in your target language that are exactly matched to your level. As you watch, the videos get progressively harder, so you can learn by immersing yourself in the culture!

Ratings and reviews

After using for about an hour for Japanese study, I really enjoy the app. The whole idea is great, just a few things that keep this app from 5 star. The Closed Caption (CC) doesnt always keep up, and when I swipe right to flash cards it's buggy and glitchy, and audio from the videos plays in background still. If the captions kept up better it would be 5/5 stars. It's a very cool way to immerse in a language.

I really wanted to hate this, but actually it's really good. The best part is that the videos are pulled from Japanese (my target language) sources. That is...they are Japanese videos for Japanese people not videos for English speakers learning Japanese. I scrolled for about a half hour and it never ran out of videos. The scan and transcript features were helpful to understand but the captions were clunky and some videos were out of ratio meaning that things got cut off.

The concept is absolutely amazing, but the execution and the availability of the kinds of videos aren't what I'd like to see. It's very brain melting content, it's not something you watch to learn but rather the content itself is useless.
