iTranslate Lingo Reviews

by Starpasser

Why i gave you 1 star, is not because of other flaws that people may have complained about but because of the fact that you can only take 1 lesson, and then nothing more. Otherwise, iTranslateLingo would honestly be great for learning a new language. I hope that you change this into something better, and listen to our complaints. Also, there is a 7 day trial, but then you have to pay, and my phone doesn’t let me pay for anything so i’m forced to accept the fact that i can only take 1 lesson and can’t even get that free trial. Please change this soon, please.

Lingo provides a fun and thorough way to learn new vocabulary. But it does not included gender information! In German, this means you don’t know if the word must be preceded by der, das, die, den, dem, einen, einem, etc. German relies on gender articles to signify direct or indirect objects. If you leave them out you are just mumbling incoherently. My German teachers and German books stress the importance of leaning new vocab words AND their gender in order to be able to actually communicate in German! The iTranslate team has not committed to add gender to the Vocab list. I am wondering if they are leveraging a free Open Source vocab list and so don’t want to spend the time or effort to improve their software? :-( This is a serious oversight for a paid subscription tool. Please join me and tell the iTranslate team to get off their butts and add an essential feature that their users must have to be able to learn a new language!

Needs to speak the word every time you select or spell a word. Let you look at what you just answered and see the correct spelling. Have a button to go to the next page, not auto change.

Liked the idea that you can go into this with just a few words and progress steadily. But I really dislike the way it doesn’t let you ponder what just happened.

The speech recognition is terrible! Wether you use AirPods or just the phone. On simple words it picks up completely different than what was said.

1-As many others have stated no matter how perfectly you say the words, it says you miss pronounce one and four with a totally different word! That’s frustrating AND THEN ....
2- though it turns red & counts it as incorrect, at the end of the lesson when you click “my mistakes“ it says I have zero mistakes & perfect completion. So Either allow me to correct the mistakes that you say are wrong… Or stop counting my pronunciation as incorrect! You can’t have it both ways.
3- What’s most needed in iTranslateLingo is a “previous review” option or at least quiz me on random words I’ve had previously in my future lessons for RETENTION As you were unable to go back to review any previous lessons or even individual words.

Those slight tweaks, which require minimal work from developers, in an update, would make this a PERFECT & well thought-out app.

I been waiting to learn Japanese but sadly I only get 1 lesson, this is my first day trying it and if I get one lesson each day I guess I’ll put the stars at 4 it’s good for you can know different languages to be honest, this is kinda better than that green bird lol I hope y’all read this, it’s a good app but I want suggestion

•Maybe make two lesson each day one in the morning and another in the afternoon

•Bug fixing

•More than one lesson

•custom noise (Like if you get it wrong, you can change the noise in setting)

•A section bar that you can review your words more than once
This is just a suggestion and yeah, please don’t hate me lol

Okay listen. I am wanting to learn Italian so I thought iTranslateLingo was good for it. You have to pay five dollars per month for it though. If you go for free you get only one lesson. I was really bummed out. I know the people need to make their money and that is ok with me. But I was hoping for more. The first and only lesson was amazing I loved it. I love iTranslateLingo I just wish it gave me more lessons to learn Italian. I love iTranslateLingo and totally recommend it but you have to pay to get more lessons other than that iTranslateLingo was great.

Thank you for your time
And thank you for making iTranslateLingo.

It’s a decent app but there’s little room to customize the experience. I don’t like how 3/4 of the words are basically English words. Give me something that’s foreign to my mind, I can figure out loan words by hearing them.

This is mostly a problem at the beginner level. If I go for intermediate, it’s too hard because it is so kanji-reliant. I’d like if there was something between intermediate and beginner, or if you could view kanji and hiragana simultaneously so that I actually remember the kanji.

iTranslateLingo translates accurately 75% of the time. It needs a dialect/region option. I check translations by switching the to Spanish from English, to English from Spanish and the phrase typed is not the same when translated in reverse. It’s great if you need a quick look for a word in Spanish when working with someone who speaks no English but as a supervisor and with how expensive iTranslateLingo is, it should be 100% accurate all the time.

iTranslateLingo is fine and is pretty similar to other language learning apps. It helps you learn vocabulary and that’s about it. The biggest flaw it has is the speaking portion. The last section of each lesson has you speak, but it will almost always detect the wrong thing for at least one out of the four words. Personally, I know I’m saying the words correctly. I have a native Korean friend who has confirmed I’ve said the words correctly but iTranslateLingo detects something different. This seems to be a common issue among other users as well.

This is the BEST LEARNING-A-SECOND-LANGUAGE-APP EVERRRRRR!!!!!! Now I get A+’s on my quizzes instead of C-‘s:). And it’s easy and you get to correct your mistakes if you got a word very wrong, this really helped me in my Germany class! But the fact that there is a premium gets me sad even though you don’t need it! Just click the X on the top left of the screen (maybe right I don’t remember sorry). YOU WILL NOT REGRET DOWNLOADING THIS!!!

iTranslateLingo is great, but there needs to be a way to review past words with their pronunciations. The current review section is extremely lacking; there should be a better way to quiz the past words, and also include another section where you can solely just look at the words (with their pronunciations).

Also, for Korean, there should be an option to toggle the romanization for Hangul off.

Otherwise, I have no complaints (:

by Pottergeek🤓

It is ok but like I’m sure many others said, the part where you have to say the word in your language always messes you up even when you know you saying it right, and even if your not saying it correctly it comes up with things that sound nothing like what you said. But I stand by my point iTranslateLingo is “All right”, all the other sections are fine they really do help you learn.

Welp I have to say iTranslateLingo is very helpful and good as well as the progress and how it keeps track but what kind of notification is this it goes something like “complete me or at lest you should Since it’s #lingotime😏”
Oh and I know I could turn off my notifications but it notifies me almost every hour it soooooooooo annoying other than that iTranslateLingo is good it’s OK why not download it for a shot but JEEZ!

I don't know how to pronounce the words in my lesson history. Use English letters for Chinese pronounciation in lesson history please. The list of words in my lesson history should have English letters pronounciation next to Chinese characters and English word.

The reason why I love lingo is because it’s teaching me a lot of new Russian words that I am liking and it has selections for animated in Russian easy Russian or advanced Russian and I am in intermediate Russian because I speak a little bit of German and German and Russian are kind a like so that is why I love lingo and it is just a really good app to like learn new languages if you don’t want to go to school or do you like sick or something so yeah bye-bye

I’ve been a language learning lover for whole my life and iTranslateLingo has been great so far. I highly recommend it to you, especially if you are a beginner; it can start your engine and drive you through the way quick and safe😉😉!
And by the way, you may think learning 4 words a day won’t have much effect on your language learning process, but remember: oceans 🌊 are created by small droplets 💧.

iTranslateLingo has helped me a lot when it comes to Korean vocabulary! It makes it really fun and enjoyable! The only thing I would recommend is that they add a portion to iTranslateLingo where you can review words you’ve learned through iTranslateLingo . Other than that, iTranslateLingo is so good!
