I only wrote a two out of five because number one… It’s locked lesson. You can only complete two lessons and after that. Pay check time. Number two.. The lessons are not good for a new beginner.Of course the lesson teaches you new words but it doesn’t tell you the alphabets and its sounds. It would only tell you new words people would normally use in a conversation.All of all, if you are a complete beginner. This app is not for you and if you like to pay for stuff then this app is for you

Hi there, thank you for sharing your experience. We understand it can be frustrating to hit a paywall. Revenue from subscriptions goes directly back into developing the app and keeping it ad-free. That said, we took your feedback about complete beginners to heart. We've since added a free Alphabet & Sounds section where you can tap through every Twi letter and digraph to hear how they sound. We appreciate your constructive feedback, as it directly inspired this feature.
Japanese: Full Japanese language support across the app, content, and daily tips.
Tones: Mid tones (downstep) now display correctly. Fixed tone marking for common phrases.
Audio: Better error messages when playback fails, translated into all languages.
Home: New Help & Support button on the homepage.
Orthography: Corrected Akan spelling and diacritics.
Bug fixes: Crash on certain device locales, guest sign-in for returning users, onboarding layout, and discovery survey improvements.
