for the chinese course, i selected A1 (albeit conservatively) because I already know basic words, word order, tones, etc, but it immediately threw me into the very basics regardless. no big deal, i could just exit to the feed immediately. however, no matter how much i interact with a video, a pop up comes up once i scroll because i “skipped the video”. Just some small things :)

This app is so cool, it’s helped me learn languages a lot and it’s so much better than TikTok it’s genuinely a godsend but there ARE some bugs. Sometimes you’ll get content in a diff language or the subtitles don’t correctly work or have weird explanations (like for example Instead of saying smth means hello it might say that the word is used as a greeting whenever u see someone, not a huge deal but still smth to think about) I really like it and will continue to use

This is a really great app, the concept is really well suited to a lot of modern language learners, that said there are a few notable issues that I’m sure the devs are working on. For one, the app is pretty slow and doesn’t always load videos in a timely manner, making the point of the app diminished slightly. There should also be a wider variety of videos shown to users, as of now it seems to only show skits, comedy, and some dance videos and it would be nice if there was either a search bar to find videos I enjoy to influence my algorithm, or just a broader range of videos taken from other sites. I’ve also had minor issues with captioning not picking up certain words and some videos have been classified as my target language when they’re a completely different language. Overall though, I’m really excited to see where this app goes in the future!
