I'm already not thrilled that 1. I was offered to take a Russian placement test. when I chose to do so, the app told me I had bad internet connection. no I didn't. I had to go to the website to find that there *is* no Russian placement test. fix that 2. there's no option to learn Russian only in Cyrillic. I'm at the point of learning where Russian words written in the Latin alphabet look weird / wrong to me. there should be the option to turn off Latin. still better than duolingo

This app is the best compared to all of the other language-learning apps that I've used before! The ads lasts only 15s so it's much tolerable. There's nothing else I can say, it's worth my time so I really recommend for y'all to use this instead of Duolingo, sure that app is a great starter for beginners, but, most of us are studying seriously, so, this app is much way better. Keep it up, developers💞

I used this app after Duo switched to Ai first. I like this app more. Duos felt so repetitive and I didn't feel like I was learning anything new but this one is quicker and better at giving lessons. I just wished they had widgets for androids like Duo did. It's a good reminder for when I open my phone and the streak widget is the first I see.
