Overall a great app but, when it comes to some specific small words, made out of 3-4 letters, it's so annoying that the app doesn't recognise the right pronunciation. I'm talking about the Dutch language. How difficult can it be to pronounce the word "op", "veel" or "drie" , well, it looks like after 20-25 times trying, I just give up. Also, when you fail pronouncing a word, the big button in the middle screen should be "try again"not"continue" because sometimes you cannot go back to try again.

There's a privacy policy on the section about being recorded when I speak, and for whatever reason when I go to read it, "something's wrong" message comes up and I'm unable to read it. Everything's updated. Everything else works on the app except that part, no error messages anywhere else. I NEED TO READ THAT POLICY BEFORE AGREEING TO MY VOICE BEING RECORDED AND STORED ON YOUR PLATFORM. THANK YOU!

Great learning app but limited selection. I forgot why I stopped using this app a few years ago. I got a new phone and was looking for a new learning app and all my friends would recommend this (plus hundreds of podcats I listen to). I like Babbel how it functions in the app and the AI feature speaker to test my skills but, it doesn't have any Asian Languages. My goal was to learn Japanese but I get to strengthen my Italian too so i'm not all mad about it. Looking forward for more selections!
