The comprehensible input method through video from real native speakers works, and users report progress in understanding conversational Spanish, but there is no output practice and intermediate-level content runs out quickly.

I was recommended to use this app by a native Spanish speaker. And I have only been using this app for a few days but I can already say that I have improved immensely. I used Duolingo on and off for a few years and couldn't tell you a single thing in Spanish.
