An editorial reading of the saved reviews
The entire format is built around live conversation with an AI tutor, which is valuable for spoken practice. But the tutor mispronounces words in German, mixes registers in Japanese, and does not understand speech in languages with unfamiliar phonetics.

What users experience
2 excerpts from the breakdown. These are individual cases, not a verdict on all users.
I am a B2 French speaker and bought this because I am shy and hate speaking in public, and my wife, who is much more fluent that I am will rarely speak to me in French for more than a few minutes and she is a terrible teacher. I tried a bunch of apps and this is the only one that let me actually practice speaking.
I mostly do the custom scenarios and try to speak in German. The AI tutor pronounces German words incorrectly and with a clear American accent. Once I noticed that, I stopped trusting its feedback on my own pronunciation.
