It’s a nice app but I wanna learn Hausa 😕

literally the best app ever it helped me learn igbo so much may god bless whoever made this app

App was great at first could access all content with no ads. Then they added ads which was okay. Then they added ads and you have to pay to study some content. I am not paying 30$ or 20$ monthly. That’s actually ridiculous.

This app shows a lot of promise but the ad set up is insane. There are ads between every lesson, which is fine, but then you have to stare at a pop up prompting you to pay for ad free for one month for a full 45 seconds - between EVERY LESSON. please cut that out. Make it a pop up every 5 lessons and don’t make it a 45 second requirement. 5 seconds maybe. It’s the only reason I will stop using the app.

Even after the app has rebranded, once I try to click on a new lesson in transportation my screen fades out and turns white and i can’t access anything

I think this app is amazing but I just have one complaint that I with it was easier to just to hear one word at a time, in a sentence. So it’s easy to learn that one word instead of having to hear the whole sentence or phase just to hear that one word.

First, I’ll say that I haven’t checked more than Mandarin and Swahili, and only a little bit of either. Swahili pronunciation seems ok, but not perfect. Mandarin pronunciation on the other hand, is absolutely horrible. The sort of horrible that made me wonder if they were actually trying to say alternate words for the words that I knew were correct. Additionally, the very first sentence was wrong, because no native Mandarin speaker ever says the equivalent of “Hello. How are you?”, since the words for “hello” and “how are you” are the same in Mandarin, with one small addition at the end. If you learned their horrible pronunciation and combined that with their wrong wording, there is no way that you would ever be understood. Additionally, no Chinese language appears to be supported or even mentioned on the developer’s very brief website. For these reasons, I’m not going to take the chance of learning the wrong thing, by using this app, for any language.

This app has gone so downhill. It used to be called Mandla and it was specifically for African languages but now maybe they sold it because this app has changed so much also you have to pay for things on this app.

please add hausa to your list of languages! it’s so widely spoken, i was surprised it wasn’t on the list.

I came looking for a better app since the support for African languages is nonexistent with Duolingo. Thank you for this amazing app! 🥰
