Ratings and reviews

After being in contact with the support because I also encountered the "Oops something went wrong"-problem, I was finally able to sign in. However I typically get now stuck in the data migration screen (which did not get solved with reinstalling the app). The only way that I'm able to use the app, is to first sign in in the browser and there click on the vocabulary trainer, so the app open (and works). All of this renders this potential good app fully useless.

it's great for practicing vocab but I have some technical issues with the app: - when I add vocab, I can't save and add another. I need to save & exit, add manually and then do the same thing all over again - I can't add or access any study groups and the study group page simply shows an error

The concept of being able to export vocab from the dictionary is awesome. However: 1. As far as I can tell, all my flash cards are gone ever since the new update was rolled out. 2. Please show all lessons, regardless of which language pairs and direction of translation you choose 3. It would also be cool if this app would automatically adjust the direction of translation. When I still had my flashcards, I had loads of flashcards in my decks where the direction of translation was mixed up.
