Airlearn - Language Learning Ratings and Reviews

Best app ever for learning a new language !

I just started this app and I just want to say this is a very good, efficient, enjoyable app to use for learning a new language. I’m learning French at the moment and I have learned so much in only 30 minutes I’m already learning new phrases and how to use them in the daily life. This app is great for grammar and explains words and how to use these words/phrases excellently. This app is very cheap compared to the other apps like Duolingo last year around this time I started using Duolingo and bought the pro for $60 which was a mistake and will never do again. But I joined this app and when I say you had to pay for the extra lessons a day like Duolingo I was very bummed but this app is only half the price versus Duolingo. I just have to say this app is way better than the other apps and actually takes time to explain the basics before you start getting into the hard stuff compared to Duolingo when you join you are almost immediately hit with the hard stuff. Also when I joined Duolingo and was doing it for a couple of months I was very discouraged and it felt like something was wrong with me because I wasn’t understanding it and come to find out it was the app keep in mind I had a streak over 200 but I’m glad I quit and came over to this app and I’m finally understanding now. I recommend this app 100% to anyone trying to learn a new language!!!

Great way to learn!!!!

Airlearn is a new company for unacademy. I have in almost 7 months learned 1,028 words! I am enjoying the app. It is a unique way to learn. Recently, Airlearning has updated this app and it’s even better. Your learned words can be reviewed with an alphabetical listing on the Words section. But, the words that are newer can be seen at the top of the non-alphabetized listing of words. Airlearn uses many types of learning tools. UNA, a speaking AI, speaks and you can speak back…In Spanish, of course! There are reviews using the words you just learned. You can hear the word pronounced and repeat to practice. Airlearn’s explanations are really a good thing. It helps clear up questionable about usage and those tricky words…me, te…, too! Just by listening and repeating what the lesson says, you can even have an accent! {I have worked really hard on this because a friend said (I was helping a Spanish speaking patient…) that I had a terrible accent.} ***I just found another update! I’m excited to see what’s new! Come join us. It’s free unless you want to GO PRO, just try it out. See if it’s fun…..Happy Day to you!

Do not waste your time on the French course.

I am an intermediate in French, I decided to comeback to a language app and study my French again. I come across unacademy as it was known at the time, I didn’t use it cause I h the thought it was only for Spanish, but then I see they have other languages. The app doesn’t start with a test to see where you are, so you just have to do test of the chapters to see where you’d be. I was a bit rusty and decided to see where I was. I took a chapter test, and when I did I discovered that the grammar on the app isn’t sufficient. The thing said along the lines of: « tu » goes with « déteste » when déteste is used with je. Before that I saw that it wanted me to get 950xp in one day. You get 50xp per lesson, and as I’ve seen from others, you can’t really go to too many lessons, before it asks for money to continue for the day. Sometimes it asks you questions that don’t have enough context, so you don’t really know. And I also was putting words, but I didn’t put the right «la» there were two “la”s, without any way to know which one to use, I got the question wrong. My last straw was the ai pictures that wasn’t related to question. (The question asks how many stories to a building there is, yet the ai photo only shows 4 stories, which basically makes me lie on the question about what I’m seeing). Please for the French course, do not bother with your time, it is better to just use an indie app to learn. God bless. :)

Has major issues

I heard so many good things about this app and wanted to try it for myself. It took exactly ten seconds for my smile to disappear once I found out that there are only 11 languages you can choose from 😲!!! That’s it!!!! And the non English speakers have it so much worse. There is only an option to learn English and no other language for people that speak Spanish and Hindi. That’s it!!! Let me something clear. I know nothing about app designing, especially ones that teach languages. It probably takes an insane amount of work and time to build a lesson plan for even one language, but here’s the thing. If you want to release an app, you need to have every single language that you are striving for as a company on the release day! It’s not a good look for these companies to release something a long time after the app’s launch. It’s like if a makeup company launched its new foundation shades strictly for people of lighter skin tones and the company promised darker shades in the future. It’s actually quite unprofessional and disappointing. The language I wanted to learn is not an option and it’s a very well known language. It’s not like it’s endangered. I’m overall dissatisfied and who knows how long I’ll have to wait to be able to learn the language I wanted to learn.

Hi, We are working on adding more languages that you can learn on the app. Please do keep a lookout for the new launches.

I love the app! However, I have a suggestion:

Hello! I am absolutely LOVING Airlearn! I love how it teaches and explains concepts. Rather than just throwing random words out for you to memorize. I do have a recommendation! I noticed that every user has a cat. On the leagues, some cats have cool glasses or mustaches. Mine currently is blank. I have no idea how to customize my cat, or if I’m able to. Is there a way there can be a little customization shop or with each lesson you get something that you can use to customize your cat? I think that would make it more personalized!

Besides the customization, I’m having an issue with PRO. I’m trying to purchase the monthly PRO, where I can just pay monthly. However, it isn’t charging my card, like it isn’t going through. My card isn’t the issue and the Apple Store isn’t the issue because I’ve recently updated a separate subscription for a separate app, and it charged me then. Is the monthly ($4.99) plan available still?

Great and Easy App for Beginners

This app is great for visual learners wanting to learn a language such as Spanish, French, Japanese, Korean etc. Despite the small language selection (with more to come) it is very easy to use and clearly explains certain grammar concepts. There is even a tab where you can view all of your previously learned words with visual depictions of the meaning. Combined with the photos, there is always a demonstrated pronunciation for each word, making it easy to quickly understand sentences. I highly recommend this app for all who learn visually, enjoy simple and easy displays, or just want to quickly begin to learn new languages. Also great for cat lovers since there are many cat profiles or appearances that are very cute. One suggestion I have though, is that they should add tracing hirigana/katakana/kanji characters for the Japanese course! Also, if they ever add a chinese course, i think they should also add tracing the 汉子/hanzi.

This is the best spanish app I ever used!😍😊❤️🫶🏽

I am a black American living in the United States in Florida I literally love Spanish and Spanish people. I literally adore them I try to duolingo and it didn't work. It was like I thought duolingo was just an owl that didn't really want me to learn Spanish it was just fun and entertaining but this app is more than just fun and entertaining. It actually helps you to learn so that's what I like about it. You should definitely check this out. It's perfect and better yet. It's totally free. Douolingo is too but trust me it is a horrible app for some users. My sister still uses it but I preferrer this app more. and also I gave this a four-star instead of the five because you have to be 13 in over to use this app my sister is six and can use Duolingo I am close to 13 but this is working perfect for me. I am not 13 yet I don't know three or two years before I turn 13 so yeah, but I have a brain of a 13 year-old trust me and this works so good for me, so please try this out

Air learn for me!

I’ve been wanting to learn Japanese for the longest time and I’ve found a app air learn and it has helped me a lot I’ve been learning and getting to know what words and how to say them it also helps a lot for me. In my opinion this app is better than Duolingo because it doesn’t show me any words to learn or any thing to use, I’ve only been using air learn for a month or two and I’ve learned many words and I’m practicing how to make a sentence and it’s going really well. I’m very great full that I found air learn it had helped me a lot and I learned a lot since and I’ve been practicing and it is going great since I’ve started! I’m so great full for the person who made this app it’s probably the best app I’ve found in my whole life! And it’s free so that’s the best part since I don’t have to pay to learn! My experience with this app is amazing I’m so glad I’ve found this app!

Solid, beautiful app

Update: I’ve used the app a bunch over the past couple of weeks and it’s starting to show that it’s a bit shallow compared to other language apps. The images are still beautiful and it does a good job of introducing vocabulary. It desperately needs a spaced repetition system, however. The vocabulary comes way too fast and it kind of begins to feel like you are just going through stuff. Adding this I. Easily takes this to a five star review for me. Otherwise, I just don’t see myself renewing this for next year.

Original review:I am currently using 16 different language learning apps and I find myself coming back to this one more than most of the others. It’s a beautiful app that does a good job of weaving in grammar with the vocabulary. There are a number of features that it currently lacks (speaking practice and an effective manual review system), but I get the impression that more features are on the way. All in all it’s a solid, beautiful app that I highly recommend!

Amazing!

went into this with relatively now expectations as i was coming from another app that doesn’t necessarily have the best reputation *cough* duolingo *cough*. however, i’ve picked up more french in the past few week or so then i have (spanish) in almost a year and a half with the other app (holding a very basic conversation, describing myself and my hobbies, etc)! perhaps i’m just a quick learner, but this app is definitely worth it in my opinion! i feel like i could probably get by just using the free version, but the pro version is soo worth it. i definitely catch myself doing a few lessons through the day. my only nag is that i wish there was more focus on writing/spelling. i’ll probably write another review in a month or so about where i’m at but as of right now i’m gonna say it’s a pretty good app!
