Complete utter trash. They force you to sign up for a subscription immediately and the free trial puts you on auto renewal. Deleting the app doesn't stop you from being subscribed. There's so many hoops to jump through in order to cancel a subscription. Additionally, clicking delete account on the app itself does jackshit. You have to go to their website to delete your account.

Hello, thank you for your message. You can access every first lesson of every course in every language for free. Some options can get to 80 free lessons. You would only require a subscription for full access. We hope this information helps, kind regards and Happy Learning! 😌

Switched over to Babbel since other language learning apps were starting to make their lessons with AI and it showed. So far, I really like the lesson structure! It feels more in-depth and the pop-up tips have been very helpful. Lifetime membership was kind of costly, but since it cost me about as much as a couple years of the competition and I can see getting more use out of it than that, was a good deal for a good learning program!

Been using it for a year at a casual pace - for app learning it's way better than duo, but the live part leaves a bit to be desired. I've done 75% of the A2 classes and 50% of the B1 classes and now I only can find 1-2 classes/week that aren't repeats. The in app explanations are good, and it's broken into sections that make practising more efficient. I'll probably finish the app content in the next three months and with the lack of live classes, won't have any reason to stay subscribed.
