I'm intermediate in Italian and purchased the annual subscription to obtain the intermediate and advanced content. Regardless, I'm not able to access it unless I obtain 20,000 flowers (exp points). I cancelled because I'm not going through hours of remedial work that I've already mastered to obtain the content that I paid for. If you're a beginner, it's a good app for you.

Overall, good and helpful application with some ways for improvement: 1. The advanced levels are too long with 50 words/sentences per game, which I find tiresome. 2. In Italian grave and acute accents over e are often messed up (é and è). I've reported the mistake several times, but I'm not sure if anyone ever checks or corrects those. 3. Sometimes, the translation of sentences is not very accurate, or there are sentences and words which are repeated in different sections.

Fun and easy, just like it says. I like how you aren't given clues by capital letters - the app supplies the capitalisation only after you have chosen the first word of the sentence. The vocab on the free version is pretty basic but it is nevertheless good for revision. I like the 'battery' feature that tells you which words/sentences you haven't practiced in a while. Not many ads either. And you don't need to install a new keyboard as the letters you need are supplied by the app.

I like this app, but I don't get the difficulty level of words. I will just give the example of the "Europe unit". You learn words of countries such as "Monaco" or "Moldavia" in the beginning level, and the big, and more popular countries like "Poland", "Sweden" or "Ukraine" in the intermediate level. I don't know about you, but to me Monaco and Moldavia are not even intermediate-level words but hard-level, and Poland, Sweden, Ukraine should be basic. Same with the other units.

This app's handwriting-recognition is lousy! This app has really great POTENTIAL but it just can't cope with your handwriting! You have to tediously peck away at either the qwerty keyboard or the app's own keyboard! So many answers HAVE to be supplied by tedious key-presses! Supply the correct letter too early and you are recorded as having made a mistake, and forced to repeat the exercise. Use DUOLINGO or MEMRISE and you can hardwrite your answers rapidly and easily via Gboard. Why suffer?

It's good so far. It's free. But I found one minus, probably, I just didn't get something, the disadvantage is that I can't skip the lessons where I already know the words/phrases (like in Drops)
