I'm actually a little surprised with how popular this app is. I'm gonna guess it's because of Duolingo's presence on social media, because honestly, this isn't that good. It uses AI for it's lessons, which sometimes results in sentences that aren't even grammatically correct. Overall, I think this would be great for learning to READ a language, not speak it, since it doesn't do a good job at teaching accents (which are in almost every language).

I have been using Duolingo since 2012, for the last decade. It has been an amazing application and experience. Those days are over. Like any other legacy product they are trying to monetize it instead of modernizing it. I was a paid member for a long time and then when they wanted to up my rates by tacking on AI, that was the end of me paying for Duolingo. Since I'm already paying for other AI applications, I have a great experience with them. Improving my Spanish. Bye Duo. Ya got greedy.

Fun, gamified language learning, but I would say it's a great "starter" app for learning a new language, not if you want to develop deep understanding or expertise in a new language. It's good for learning vocabulary. After talking with several of my Spanish speaking friends, it's not always accurate, and the example phrases are sometimes bizarre, but I get why they do the silly phrases. Overall, it's been a fantastic family learning tool for my wife and kids.
