AMAZING!!!

I am first generation Igbo American and I did not grow up with the language but would love to incorporate into my personal life and eventually my future family’s. This app is phenomenal with the way they break words/phrases down and make it repetitive in a way that you will genuinely learn and retain the information! Thank you to the creators of this app. May God bless you! 💗

No audio

I want to begin learning twi but there is no audio on the first lesson. I can’t even access the rest without paying for it. If there’s no sound on the first one, why would I pay to see what the rest are like? Very unfortunate.

Informational but very glitchy

Im currently using the app to learn Igbo and for the most part the material is good. The main issue is that the app is very glitchy for me. Often I’ll open the app and the homescreen will be frozen. When I eventually get to play the videos the videos will be unresponsive to when I try to pause and the language on screen also freezes.

Monthly price went from CAD 6.99 to 12.49 in 30 days; I don’t recall any alerts though their fine print provides for arbitrary price increases - this wouldn’t be a problem if the lesson format wasn’t so archaic,; you’re forced to sit through prerecorded lessons that mix sound bites from native speakers with generic instructions; you can’t try the next lesson w/o playing the previous lesson, really shows the assumptions the product team makes about learning styles - also, there’s maybe 10 flashcards per lesson, but they are not interactive; it’s just plays a recording of the anglicized word - if only Rosetta Stone had African languages … tired of businesses offering inferior products and justifying it with some sort of ownership claim; just make a better product.

Not a great experience with the app due to it malfunctioning after purchasing a 1-year subscription. Requested a refund. Would not be repurchasing.

Very boring and feels alien making it hard to continue

I wish they could make it fun, like Duolingo or especially Memrise. It’s just too boring! How can someone be consistent when they feel like they have to spend hours listening to an hour-long audio with a white man’s voice in the background? I don’t understand; it feels alien. You should’ve at least used a local person who speaks English for the translation, but please, make it more fun. As much as I want to learn my native tongue, it’s discouraging. I’m disappointed that Memrise doesn’t offer Igbo, only Yoruba. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have bothered with you guys at all.

Finally an app for African Languages

My only issue is that French and Portuguese should not be included. Yes, they are spoken on the continent, but that is a result of colonialism. We, as Africans, deserve a place that caters to and showcases our linguistic diversity without colonizers being included. Also, please add Bambara! 🙏🏾

So far, not bad but content needs consistency

I’m glad I found an app where I can learn my native Nigerian language & I’m loving the content so far. There a couple issues I’ve noticed though like the spelling/dialects are not consistent. For example with Igbo, “Sit down” was introduced as “noro ala” then later in a separate course it becomes “nodu ala”. This doesn’t throw me off because I know there are different dialects but others might get confused. Another example is the match quiz in lesson one. How are you can both be “Kedu ki mere” and “Kedu ka idi” but only one of those are accepted as correct & it’s not the version that was thought in the course. I’m also not sure how this Igbo tutor chat works but it doesn’t look like there are any live tutors.

Received politically biased email

I downloaded your app because the youngsters in our house wanted to use it to learn African languages. Your email stamped 23 January concerning political bias about the Middle East is incredibly inappropriate for a platform that children and teens can use. You should be clear on the intention of your application. Is it a neutral language learning tool, or a media house choosing to share politically biased views?
