Been using the app for a while and just decided to start a paid plan. I really like the app but my biggest issue is that it's really hard to pick up where you last left off if it's paused for more than a few minutes. The play controls and scrubbing bar just go away and you have to start the audio again manually and scrub through to find your place again. Other than that, it's a really good app!

It helps with all levels of learners, especially beginner's considering starting a new language. Not to mention all of the individual language's having a YouTube channel at hand to use. Both for visual or audible learners, and great for all in my opinion. Though it sucks that after a 7 day trial you have to pay for most things in order to unlock them.

This is by far the most comprehensive and detailed language learning course, Ever!Innovative Language Learning is the only course that captivates my attention. I love how they have podcasts with 2-3 different voices, exemplifying the language of my choice. There are podcasts, audio files, video files, interactive videos, word bank, vocabulary words broken down into syllables with a narrator, & ability to work one-on-one with an instructor are just a few of many perks to list. This is the Best!

Just started using the app last week, but the "Rate App" pop up window came on from day one, and pops up every single time you open the app. I'm hoping this makes it stop! This app has a lot going on and I am still learning all the features. A basic video tutorial would be nice. No offline mode for the flashcards yet. And the sheer amount of material feels a bit overwhelming at first, esp. when you're just learning how to navigate the thing. Otherwise, it seems like a pretty program.

mostly good. there are some points where the English recodings are not matching the German words. but the models who speak are working together in an interactive setting, so the lessons provide a more useful experience rather than boring texts. my speaking partners have always told me that I need to focus more to imitate the language accent, rather than push hard core on word memorization (although that's important also) and the lessons focus a lot on accent imitation in this app.

I love their programs, features, and the interface, but just one annoyance. When you're playing any audio files, the audio player buttons are difficult to press. You have to be super EXACT in where you touch them, or they won't respond to any of your touches. A lot of time I'm pressing the buttons but nothing happens because, the "pressing area" is just too small for the buttons' images. Another useful feature would be to switch between languages without signing in and out of each program

The amount and quality of material for learning a language this app provides is amazing. Romanian lessons are hard to find. These include audio, dialogue, teaching, transcripts, vocabulary, cultural context, more. Just listening to the first 3 lessons cleared up some questions I've had about the language for months trying to learn with other programs.

The app started glitching on me. It would take long to start up and sometimes would freeze up my entire phone. Then my word bank wouldn't sync with my account even though I had WiFi. This only started happening after I had the app for a while. Other than that it has been very convenient to take my language lessons on the go and still have all the resources the full website has.

Great app, but doesnt synchronize with Hebrew Pod 101 account. I like that I can listen while Im driving, instead of the radio. The repeat feature keeps it hands-free, too. However, all the time that is spent on the app doesnt show on "My Report" or "My activity" on Hebrew Pod 101 website. Disappointing and a little frustrating, because it is a great app! I wish all that I listened to would count on "My Report" and "My activity," esp the time. Great app! Lots of fun!

It's honestly a really good app. Learning language through this method is pretty good. The only problem is that there aren't all the lessons on the app as there is on the website which is a little frustrating. The lessons are also a tad hard to navigate. But besides those two problems it's a really great app to help continue your language learning

I was so excited when I downloaded this app bc I was originally using duolingo. & with duolingo, it doesn't go in depth like this one does so I was really looking forward to being able to understand on a deeper level .... until I realized you have to pay monthly for this. first, it's not advertised with a damn price. they make it seem like its free. not saying this isn't worthy of a price, bc I think it is for what you're getting, however, PLEASE ADVERTISE as such. it's very misleading.

I have used several language learning apps; all mostly for greek. I completely finished the Duolingo course (which is shorter than most other courses on Duolingo.) Upon finishing that I knew about 2000 words but felt that I couldn't understand a conversation at all. I recently started using this app and it is much better for conversational language and much more in depth all around. It teaches the rules of the language so that you can understand much deeper. I highly recommend this app.

This the best language learning program I have used. The lessons are in depth without being overwhelming. The pronunciation exercises are incredibly effective! I'm also using the Tandem app to practice my Portuguese with native speakers, and I receive so many compliments on both my written and spoken language skills! I've only been using the Innovative Language app for about a month or so, and I'm loving it!

Great app. Glad they fixed the audio (on my last phone the screen had to be on for the audio to continue). Best feature is you can hit download on a lesson and it gives all audio and PDFs for offline study. Extremely useful for conserving data/battery life or studying while traveling (or airplane mode). It could be improved by enabling a dashboard view so students could follow their regular dashboard study programs.

This apps is fantastic. I use it everyday to listen the lessons. In the last 12 months, I have improved my English and now I speak it better, with more vocabulary, more fluid,, with a better pronuntiation and with a better grammatical structure. Furthermore, I understand, in a better way, live english conversations as TV shows, movies, etc. I really love this app and in general all the English Class 101 course.

compared to the website, this structure is lacking in innovation within its structure. the user interface is a bit drab and does not lend to easy review as the site does. may be better if they incorporated flashcard tech, sleeker design upgrade or something that makes it as easily accessible as well as aesthetically pleasing as the website. just wish it was more tailored to your account and lessons. it's got the information though so that is a plus. just how it is presented needs work.

Great app, the better app for my needs. The pay version is far superior to other apps. The synchrony between the app and website is substantial as well. Some lessons are passive listening, good for driving distances others require attention and practice, especially the reading and writing portions. I do recommend avoiding the "tutor" pay version and choosing the package below.

Too much teaching w/o explanations. For example: mèi and bù both mean 'no' but the app doesn't explain the difference and when to use them. Same with the word 'thanks'. 3 different translations w/o explanation. There's a few others but I'm only at the beginning level....so far not the best experience. Not all of the vocabulary comes with pinyin or English translations so you have to make your own "labels". Hopefully these questions will get answered. If so, I will change my rating to 5 star.

I'm really loving this app so far, but I really wish the app have ALL the features as on the website itself. I want to record my voice and compare it to other speakers and such on the app like on the website. Word of the day, some downloads, it's not featured on the app and it would be so much better if all the features are on the app. A lot of ppl are already using the app, and those additions alone would make it so much better and fun to use.

App is missing features from the website. You cannot use a Google login to this app. I already had a paid Google account for the Vietnamese course on the website. I had to change my account password just to log in. Also, this app does not have the entirety of the vocab features from the website, just the word bank. It's missing the flashcards and word lists with the incredibly useful audio slideshows that just loop vocab words and example sentences. Just stick to the mobile site for now.
