Beelinguapp: Language Learning

The app keeps crashing. It has horrible lag and the stories are being read out loud by artificial intelligence or something because it doesn’t have a Spanish accent and it will definitely not improve your comprehension skills. I don’t know, I think I had higher hopes because the app seems like it was made by five-year-old. The interface ugly. The loading time for books is weird it’s supposed to download fast but it gets stuck at like 50% overall I’m just not happy with the app right now hopefully they’re gonna update it and make it better in the future but right now it’s not worth downing just search on Google or YouTube for an audiobook and write your comprehension level like for me I’m a C1.

I downloaded this app and signed up for the free trial period. While I liked some aspects of the app, there were a couple really simple errors that should’ve never been made (the verb “marchar” was where the month “março” should have been and “imagine” was in English, not “imaginar”). I’m an intermediate level Portuguese learner so I was able to catch them and report them, but it doesn’t give me a lot of hope in actually learning good material once I get past the basic features. I’ll try using this for the remainder of trial period, but probably not beyond. Too many kinks and issues that I suspect they got by building out with AI or computer models and they don’t have staff who are actual knowledgeable in language to fix.

Love this app will rate five plus stars when it syncs across all my devices thanks … still waiting for an update… ??? Update I appreciated the two recent updates yet still some glitches with the flash cards and syncing… can the stories be alphabetized by the most recent so you don’t have to try and look for the story you just read when you want to start the game portion ? Keep trying getting better…many thanks for your response five stars when the app syncs across all devices can be a really great app!!! 4.5 stars now Jan/29/2025 Better with today’s update now is syncing across my devices for the library portion but not for your journey. On phone story :5 A2.1 on iPad story :1 A2.1 I am very impressed un trying to improve this app you’re almost there !!!

This app is phenomenal, it has single handedly brought me very close to full fluency. The reading is the best, because you learn words that are at your level, and you learn these words IN CONTEXT, not just on some boring flash cards. And being able to see the translation of a word or phrase immediately, and then adding it to your glossary is a game changer. Not to mention the audio to go along with it, so you can hear what you’re reading, and choose the speed at which you listen. Phenomenal app overall, can’t so thank you enough to the developers!

This app is more for people who already have background knowledge. I downloaded as I want to learn Korean and thought it’d be better than Duolingo but this is not a substitute. The free version just lets you read and listen to stories in other languages. I’m a beginner so I wasn’t able to get much from that as words change based on what is being said to whom and what it’s about. I upgraded to premium to have the vocab and learning path unlocked hoping that was the key. TLDR it’s not lol. It starts you off reading stories then leads to review of 5 words that you have to memorize in order to take the quiz and complete the level. So either you say you memorized it that day to proceed to the quiz to or actually memorize it before you go on to the quiz delaying movement to the next level. The quiz gave you an option to answer and view the questions in English but I’m nowhere near the level to even begin trying to use the Korean version or learning to using it to advance to other levels. I think this is great but not for the real people that need the basics to get in and start.

Love the concept, but the UX still leaves something to be desired. Do I need to be prompted about the new “Smart Dictionary” every single time I open a story? No. Did they test that? Over a year ago, I reported a bug where the “Complete” or “Submit” button at the end of lessons intermittently doesn’t work on iPhone 13 mini. Still a problem Does the app really need to force my background music into the degraded mono mode when I open it? No, but it does.

[Update] They use AI art which is jarring. The pop-up dictionary when highlighting words loads endlessly and never shows any definition. The stories are riddled with inconsistencies, writing names in katakana then switching to English letters. Very disappointed. - I love the amount of languages this app as & the fact that there’s an option for a lifetime subscription is awesome! However, I have 2 major gripes with this app. 1. The filters for levels either don’t work or they just don’t have the levels, I’ve set it to beginner 1 in Spanish, Japanese and German, unfortunately, it doesn’t bring anything on that level up to the front like it should. 2. The flash cards are a bit… lacking? What am I supposed to do with them? I can’t just marked them as memorised because I’m still in the process of learning them. There needs to be a build up, there needs to be more intuitiveness and interactions with the flash cards. Perhaps add a review option? Not to mention, the button to mark as memorised breaks sometimes.

There are typos everywhere - in both sections, English and Spanish. I don’t even speak Spanish that well and I can notice the typos. Honest question I’d like to know, is this app made by AI? Also, nothing will ever ever load!?!? Also - One cannot access this app on their computer?

Love this app will rate five plus stars when it syncs across all my devices thanks … still waiting for an update… ???

its shutting down EVERYTIME i open it
