The app can sometimes be glitchy. I think this may be unavoidable in a product that allows you to import your own content. I think this method has changed how I approach language. Fantastic experience overall.
What an awful user experience. No explanation, no instructions. Literally just a screen of words in several paragraphs that you click on, read each words translation and then either “save it” to remember it for later and learn it (…what?) or leave it. You only can save 20 words. So within 30 seconds you’ve rendered the app useless unless you pay. What am I even paying for? To save words into a note pad? No explanation of grammar, punctuation, sentence structure. Nothing. I don’t even know what the app is supposed to be. I literally just got a screen that looked like a notes document to play a guessing game. What a joke.
Not necessarily a bad app. But price wise it is just too expensive. The free version is almost useless. For Japanese I find Manabi reader to be significantly better with very low subscription fee.
I have been using this app on and off for the last year. I had a full subscription and then I went back to the basic subscription (I felt I didn’t have the time to put in the necessary work to justify the subscription fee. Now I am reconsidering that choice, and am wanting to go back to full subscription mode.) Both modes are incredibly generous especially when it comes to hearing a text and being able to read it, and being able to listen to it again and again, and again! This way of listening, I’ve learned, is the natural way of learning another language. The application is very vast and complex. While it is somewhat intuitive, it takes a bit of time to learn how it works. In fact, one of my critiques would be that there is almost too much information; too many texts. In the end however, this is also quite incredible. It is a labyrinthine library of very useable, interesting texts that you can listen to, to learn your chosen language. You can upload your own pieces too. And really, there is no excuse to not be able to learn another language, at any level, as anyone can find something of interest. Finally if you want to learn a language, this application will help. Highly recommend. Like the conversations that Steve Kauffman conducts with his programmer. Thanks for your work.
It’s very helpful to start a new language with linq , It helps you move forward faster than other apps
As soon as this subscription gives me a reason to complain, I will quickly demote my review and remove stars. Until that happens, I will gladly pay for this each year and recommend it to anyone as the best of all language apps. I’ve tried many others, and nothing really compares. So many other apps use rigid teaching methods, and limited content without much user flexibility. This app let’s me develop my own learning system, apply it to a vast database of content and consistently track what I know and don’t know, organize my content for review in flexible ways and explore new content that can always be integrated into my own custom learning system. Nothing else really compares. You just have to try it to understand. If this review hasn’t been demoted, then you know I feel as happy about this approach as the day i wrote the review. UPDATE: I am waiting to hear back on whether or not i can use “AND” relationships between tags, so i can search for groups of words within categories. If not, this would be a HUGE disappointment which may end up costing my review a star or two.
L’application nous apprend beaucoup de vocabulaire grâce à des textes selon nos intérêts. Ironiquement, elle est mal traduite en français.
Signed up for a month, trying to work with it. My first impression still holds: ideas are good, a decent support is there( they actually answer) but overall implementation is substandard, a messy and confusing interface, surprisingly no useful guide intro to the app, bugs( can’t delete obsolete notifications or extra languages) , annoying streak reminders, multiple translations ( that I need to choose from! Hello, I’m learning the language), obscure system of coins which are also lingqs but calculated in some other way no one knows how. In short all this seems to me easy to fix then it could be really good
I was introduced to the LingQ/Steve Kaufman language learning philosophy/method by a colleague, but despite an interest in a few other languages I had no intention of investigating it. But I did out of curiosity and I’m glad I did. This app is just the face of the method, and though not perfect, is very intuitive and effective. Great support in a large community.
