The description is talking about Korean, but I got the Russian app. A lot of this app is very good. But then they randomly throw things at you so advanced that it becomes frustrating. Cyrillic is a big adjustment to make, but they have a swipe-type game where you have to drag your finger across characters to spell complicated words like “eleven” in Cyrillic when you’ve only barely touched on how you might do that. This should have been saved for further down the road once you’ve been made comfortable with the characters. Since I am just now memorizing the characters and how they sound, I have to swipe a bunch of times so the app can tell you that you got it wrong. No kidding. What a complete waste of time. If you’re going to force me to play a game I am unable to play yet, can I at least skip it? Furthermore, if you sign up with Apple ID on iPhone… then go to sign up on a web browser with Apple ID, it creates an entirely new account and nothing is transferred from your previous sessions OR the languages you’ve purchased. — I think this app COULD be fantastic… if they put a little more thought into how you progress through it. And fix Apple ID logins so you aren’t stuck to a single device.

This has iOS 9.3 required, but it crashes on two max 9.3x devices I still use. I just bought the lifetime premium, and I have nothing to use it on at the moment besides a computer where it's not saying the words like in the app. Very disappointed as this needs to be fixed to support older devices again.

Original review:
It has great pronunciation and an easy format, but there's never enough time and the prices are outrageous. The worst part is watching those seconds tick away trying to spell some of the longer words. As the app doesn't seem to have any verbal check, if I can't say the words correctly yet I can't begin to spell them correctly. I would easily spend an hour a day over two sessions instead of the little base of five minutes each session. The prices make me think I'd need to spend ten hours a day to get any value.

So I truly love the app. I do. But there are always some things that can be fixed. Like for example, you surely know of the button that says “Share and get 20 minutes”? Yes, well the problem is that it seems to not work for me. I’m not sure if it is problem with my device or with app. Either way, if it is app that has issue then I would like that to be fixed. It’s not a big deal but just want to let you know. Anyway, I have learned a few things and I enjoy the app! It has a nice design and I appreciate that it sometimes repeats the same thing over and over again. I’m sure that I am one of those people that complain about this but... the time. Both things. The time it takes to recharge it too long. I mean, you wait for 10 hrs for 5 minutes! Of course you would probably tell me to just pay for more time. That’s how life is. Most things are not free. I might question who would pay that much money for an app that teaches a certain amount of Russian. I’ve learned a small portion of Cyrillic alphabet. In short time. But you are not here to read a random person’s progress. I assume you are here to see if you are doing well and if there are some things you could change or fix. Now about the 5 minutes, you must get this complaint a bunch. But time too little. Anyway, I must say goodbye. Thank you for reading and I hope to see the small problem fixed.
