Really like this product! The introductory video is all you need to get the ball rolling. You are comped a couple of modules for each of the 3 levels so you get hands on practice before you buy. Cool. It has a nice instruction pattern where you: 1. Listen to the lesson and practice a little Next: 1. Hear and repeat words/phrases from lesson 2. Hear and spell words/phrases 3. Read the English and translate to Spanish 4. A 5 question comprehension quiz follows Finally: You recite the lesson four times, with progressively less clues, for each of the roles. I started using the flash cards and like the way you can group them for review, especially the ones you keep missing. I like to go back after I have completed each lesson and solidify my knowledge of the new phrases. There are a few hiccups with the voice recognition, to be sure, but it's great practice that helps build confidence. BTW, you can't purchase levels 2 or 3 from the iPhone at this time, you need to go online. I got confused but the folks at the app helped me sort it out :-) I have done over 10 languages with Pimsleur, but was really disappointed with their Spanish. I felt like it was too stylized; I hadn't heard anyone speak Spanish like that. I went through DuoLingo but wanted something more. For me the app is taking my Spanish to the next level. Camino de Santiago here I come :-)

My main problem with the app is that I can’t use certain functions, such as practicing my pronunciation, when using earbuds. The app crashes every single time. I bought the premium for the language I’m learning so I think this should be fixed quickly and efficiently. My second issue is with the interactive audio. I find myself wanting to reverse certain parts that I didn’t quite understand but the app will not let me. So if what I wanted to go over again was at the end of 25 minute audio I would have to listen to the WHOLE thing just for that small part! Aside from these two issues I really enjoy using the app! I think it has a great set up that makes learning a new language much easier!

...the app has a sound bug that is very annoying! If you play your class then go out of the app and come back to either continue playing the class you were in or play another class, there will be no sound. I constantly have to reboot my iphone (turn it completely off then on) then go back into the app in order for the sound to work. I also have had sound issues just playing different parts of a class. The sound will be barely audible, then suddenly it will be at a higher, normal range, then go back down. Pain in the you know what! All that being said, I like the courses very much! I would’ve given it 5 stars if it wasn’t for the annoying sound issue!

I have been learning Spanish for 4 years. In those four years I have amassed a large vocabulary, but was not able to put that vocabulary into sentences to clearly be understood. I’ve been using this app for 2 weeks and I’m feeling more confident in speaking because this app teaches you how to communicate with sentences. When I first downloaded the app, I was able to use the mic and role play play with the characters. Since the latest update, that feature no longer works, and the ‘write it’ section won’t allow me to see what I’m typing. Those two issues made me give it a four star rating. It’s a hassle for me to wait till I’m home to use my computer for the lessons. Hoping this will be fixed soon.
