Best App for learning to play Bridge

I’ve tried several apps and the ACBL Learn To Play Bridge Series Books for learning to play bridge and seriously applied study time to each of them for the past 6 months and can confidently say this one is the best by far. I just wish you could also play for practice. The conventions they teach seem to be the most tailored to what the ACBL recommends newbies learn here in the US. My mother who is an Emerald Life Master has backed up and approved the things I’m learning. As a high school teacher, I can say it’s methodology is top notch. It’s very clear and each lesson builds on the previous ones. I love that it presents a lesson and then gives you a mini quiz over the material. Since I am older, I repeat each lesson 4-5 times and find my comprehension and knowledge improves each time. It chunks new learning in appropriate sized morsels and doesn’t move too fast. I highly recommend it for all academic levels.

Thanks for the thorough review! It's always helpful to know what works well for people, and what they'd like to see more of.

Clear and Concise Way to Learn Bridge!

My in-laws taught me to play bridge 40 years ago and it was an extremely confusing and brain taxing process! I didn’t stay with it long, partly because we relocated far from my husband’s family and didn’t know anyone who played. I always asked new people I met if they played bridge but couldn’t find a friendly game. If only I’d had Wesley’s app back then I’d probably have found a club and stayed with the game and I wouldn’t be starting over now. Anyway I was delighted to find the Learn Bridge app and expect sometime in the near future to actually feel comfortable playing bridge. I’ve completed the free modules covering all the basics, and am excited to move on to the more advanced bidding. Thanks for this wonderfully done app!

Best no-nonsense intro to bridge

Extremely pleased with this app—it’s the best introduction to bridge bidding that I’ve found yet, in book or app form. It will get you up to speed fast, and it covers a range of topics in a very sensible order.

My only complaint is that the format is such that you never play practice hands; you only get quizzed multiple-choice on decisions. So I would recommend pairing it with the Neuralplay Bridge app: learn a little bit, apply it in actual gameplay against the computer in Neuralplay Bridge, and then move on in the lessons. This way you’ll get a sense for why the system is the way it is.
