DW Learn German

Looks like a good app, but I even couldn’t register because the app closes when I click on register. I hope bug issue will be fixed.

This seems like a really good way to learn German, but unfortunately the app appears to be completely broken. Often I will complete a section only to come back later and find it wiped out - or I will score 10/10 only to be told that I scored 7/10 or something and to try again next time. Very frustrating because the content is great.

App logged me out, can’t remember password, trying to use the function on the app to send a Password reset crashes the app. Last update to the App was a year ago. Going to ‘App Support’ gives you a 400: bad request error. It’s broken and they don’t care.

Impossible to login no matter how many times I try to log in it says invalid credentials. Even after changing password numerous times still the same.

Like the variety of tasks. Auto capitalisation on iPhone is annoying but it matters in German!

Excellent app, ideal for the learner in Germany (as it's presumably meant to be). I'd really like a pdf book of extra exercises for those of us who aren't in the target audience of learners in Germany able to use their German every day, though, to let us revise the unit a week or so after we've done it.

The main problem here is usability. Feels like DW has lifted content from another source and tried to pack it into an app. The usability is poor and it's rarely clear what you're supposed to do. Even if your German is excellent, you can still get failed assessments because the expected outcome of an exercise was ambiguous.

Surprisingly with all the advances in tech, learning a foreign language hasn’t quite caught up ... but this app does traditional audio-visual better than any I’ve tried. It uses realistic scenarios that develop functional German in an immersive way. You hear lots of native speakers and learn practical skills, while developing the underlying grammar that is so crucial to good German. Much much better than the mind numbing Duolingo and it’s free!

It is a great course but the app lets it down. I am even unable to log in into my account. Not adapted to iPhone X either.

The app never seems to work fully be it trying to make an account and telling me my birthday is wrong or simply not loading a lesson. But when it does work it’s a good app!
