Memuat Beelinguapp Language Audiobook 2.913 3

The app has a lot of potential and is decent. I love the concept of stories and the artwork. Also, the articles cover a great range of topics. But please do whatever you must to have everything (or most content) in native audio. This day and age, we need NATIVE AUDIO. Too many apps use TTS and are thus sub-par for learning. It is literally what separates an amazing app (like speakly) from an okay app.

Not very useful for Japanese. The "karaoke" highlighting of words doesn't work with Japanese, since the sentence structure is essentially backwards. It would be much better if the matching words were hilighted at the same time. The pronunciation of some Kanji are weird scratchy audio when selected individually, and you cannot highlight from the line above to the line below if a word continues to the following line. This app may be better in the future, but not yet.

It's a great concept, however it really doesn't teach you anything, it would be a great supplemental app if you're already at an early intermediate to advanced level. I have about a N4 level in Japanese understanding, however the stories are too hard for me to currently follow especially Kanji of which I'm still mostly learning. If you already currently can read in your target language or have pretty decent listening skills of listening to a computer read to you, then this is a great app.

Used to be awesome!!!! Karaoke style text scrolling is amazing. But they now have so many pay walls and it's difficult to navigate to even 3 stories to try it out! After buying lifetime on faith, my score is slightly higher. Without a pay wall, it's better but you still can't highlight across lines in order to add to your glossary - which is very lame. They've got kinks to iron out. I'll be waiting. It's still fairly awesome in terms of comprehensible input. Only LIngua, LingQ, Beelingua and Speakly have a lot of transcriptswith audio. Beelingua is the cheapest app of that bunch and Lingua is a website, so it still has usefulness, it just has some room to improve. Will update review periodically.

It's real nice, when it works My first impressions of this app were pretty good, I especially loved that there was music translations avalible to read and listen. After starting the free trial, closing the app and coming back later, it constantly froze right on opening it. Once I was finally able to acess the app without freezing, I kept being prompted to "get premium" and being locked out of certain things despite having already started a subscription. Very finicky, this thing.

Update: unfortunately I've had to uninstall it. The recordings are poor quality and unintelligible, and the app has lots of glitches where you have to click back and forth or it closes early, and is generally difficult to use in addition to being laggy. // Previously: Best app for learning languages I've found so far. I really like it. Was confused by some issue with gold not loading correctly. was confused by the new format but nothing was actually wrong. Thanks for making such a great app

I really like the concept; so I wish I enjoyed this app, but so far I'm unimpressed. Everything takes forever to load, and there's hardly any actual content to read. Not to mention the Russian TTS voices are terrible. (Can't speak for other languages) In theory it is a service I could see being worth paying for, but the free experience seems to be a big mess. Not worth it as I see it now. I will change my review if my experience with this app changes.

I bought the program, and initially tried to redeem the voucher on my desktop, but when I put in the coupon code nothing happened. So I decided, maybe it has to be on my cell phone. I logged into Google on my cell per the insructions, downloaded Beelinguapp, but upon opening it went straight to doing a Spanish/English translation exercise. All attempts to set up an account, to find a place to put the coupon code, etc., have failed. I've sent an email to them, but who knows what will come of that. I am extremely disappointed that it's so hard just to start this program.

Not recommended unless you like the convenience. I'm trying to learn Hindi, which this app supports (good!). Unfortunately, the stories are poorly selected. Most children's stories are in the past tense. This isnt useful when you begin learning - you need a variety of tenses. Also, the Hindi speaker does not speak clearly and his recordings have a lot of distracting background noise. Sometimes they even glitch and his voice drops out. Definitely not worth paying for. Also, copy text doesnt work.

Great idea, terrible app. I have yet to find a single story for learning Spanish. (idk why, it's not like it's an obscure language!) Worse, you can't even search by language! You can search by genre and difficulty, and you save your languages in the settings, but it apparently means nothing. You have to individually click each story, (which can trigger an ad) to see if it's available in your language (and it's not). If you're trying to improve your English, it's great. Anything else, PASS.
