The lessons are quick but effective. I got through a chapter and was able to follow a conversation about the topic immediately! I also love that they let native speakers give input on a learner's exercises. I don't love how frequently they ask you to buy a premium subscription. SEVERAL times each time I open the app. Notifications, pop-ups, ads within the app, after just about every lesson. It's a bit annoying.

I cannot review my skills. Whenever I tap on an already completed lesson and select "Review skills" it gets stuck on "Preparing your review", and plays a sound from the review in the background. The problem didn't go away by restarting the app or by clearing the cache. Also, it's extremely annoying that there's no option to undo if you accidentally press the wrong button in some exercises. You have to do the whole thing all over again.

For me, this is one of the better apps for learning and with real time help from native speakers, it's a great way to learn from your mistakes. Very nicely layed out with videos to help understand exactly how to pronounce. I've learned a lot more from this app in a few days than I have from alternative apps. Also to move on is as simple as watching an advert if you don't have premium instead of having hearts and having to wait what feels like 4 weeks to get them all back... Achoo "Duolingo". 😆
