This is the ONLY language learning method that I've found totally painless & intuitive. The adaptive learning tech really intelligently tries to help me, and shows me what I got right, gives clues about what I got wrong, and lets me make second guesses using the clues. This makes it easier for me to guess when I'm not sure, and it turns out that I know more Spanish than I thought!

I like the style of learning Language Zen provides, but the app is buggy. It let's you do several lessons every three hours, but if the app gets closed in the middle of a lesson, it can reset the timer next time you enter the program, so you have to wait extra three hours.

This app is definitely one of the best spanish learning apps I've ever come across. To say it in voice, to type it, and its repetitiveness makes it great in installing the words in your head. Thank you for the helpful notes that comes with it and the progress tracker. I love this. My only problem is the voice, I cant speak the words without stopping so I'd have to keep restarting. Would it be possible to make it an option to add words to the current through voice instead of restarting?

Allows you to give feedback , but they don't seem to have anyone responding ? Does not use compound tenses. Mostly good program otherwise . Nice song music section .

Loved the website for years and so glad they now have an app. It's so much better than duolingo. Intuitive and actually teaches you sentences you will use! My only criticism is that it is great at learning with you, but if you dont use it for a while and forget things, then come back to it, it is not very good at dumbing itself back down to your level. I've had to make a new account and start again as a result.

This app was working great. But now for some reason I'm unable to move to. after answering and checking answer :( (theres only so many time I can write and say "yo tengo" check answer) click for next nothing happens :( Uninstalled and reinstalled but still no luck.. App is now working as it should and I'm loving it.

It's a great app. I got in the beginning of this week and i am definitely learning a lot. I already knew some spanish, not much, but this app really helps expand my knowledge. It has you take an assessment to see where you are. I love it. only con is having to wait 3 hours after I've finished my session since I'm not Premium. Other than that, this app is great. Definitely recommend!

Over the moon to see this app in the Play Store. I used the Language Zen website to learn Spanish way-back, I've tried so many and found it to be the most effective. The vocab is introduced at an easy pace but combined with already learned words to form realistic sentences and you quickly learn more and more complex sentences. I find other apps repetitive, I got so sick of "the girl eats bread" variations in another app. So I highly recommend this, be warned the interface is not the prettiest!

So far I really like it! I wish there was a way to favorite/bookmark certain words or phrases to come back to, but maybe they will implement that in a later update. Also, I can't wait for them to put more languages up! Especially hoping for Brazilian Portuguese and Swedish! ❤️

The app itself I think is great, and reflects well the features of the website. However I can not properly use it because it does not allow me to record my answers. The microphone just does not work even though I granted the permission. When I touch and hold the mic symbol it just gets activated and immediately deactivated. Unusable for me EDIT: Thanks for helping me. The issue was that the Google app needs microphone permissions, not only the languagezen app. I changed the rating
