Rocket Languages review criteria
Overall, I think the Rocket French folks have developed a pretty good system to learn French, so I won't go into detail about the things that I like. The big downside, however, is how their system tracks how far you've progressed in each module. For example, I just finished module 3.9, and the icons have changed from no color to the following colors and comments:
FLASHCARDS = ORANGE (GOOD)
HEAR-IT = ORANGE (GOOD)
WRITE-IT = ORANGE (GOOD)
KNOW-IT = ORANGE (GOOD)
QUIZ = GREEN (EASY)
That is not sufficient. What I want (and need) to know is how often I have reviewed each module and how I have done each time. So I have created an offline spreadsheet that shows the following for each section that I have studied. For example here is how I have tracked section 3.4 that I have reviewed several times and self-graded:
11/8/22 = D, 11/9/22 = C, 11/20/22 = C, 11/23/22 = B
You can see that first studied this module on 11/8/22, and then reviewed is subsequently three times, and my self-grade has improved from the initial D to a B. And, instead of a self-grade, I would much prefer to see the percentage of answers I got right.

Hi Dan, thank you for your review and for this feature request. We have passed this request on to the Development team for their consideration. We hope you continue to enjoy learning with Rocket French!
Rocket Japanese is amazing. I love this course. The lessons are well planned out and easy to use. I like the progress that I'm making and am certain that I will be speaking conversational Japanese soon. Thank you Rocket Japanese!

We are so happy to hear that you are enjoying Rocket Japanese and seeing many successes with the course! Best of luck with your Japanese.
Buggy on Ventura Safari, the most current MacOS and browser version.
Travelogue way too advanced and difficult to avoid.
Encountered user setup error that service and support quickly corrected.
So far greatly prefer Pimsleur and will likely invoke refund option.

Hi David, thank you for your review and we apologize for the problems that you are having with the program. We generally recommend using Chrome as a browser as it has the more powerful technology that our voice recognition software requires. Regarding your other points, we have sent you an email about all this.
Enjoying the course so far. Think I've finally found something, that I will stick with. Hope I will get to fluency! :)

We are happy to hear that you are enjoying Rocket Spanish. Best of luck with the rest of the course!
I'm an engineer and reviewed many competing products like Pimsleur (too audio oriented), Rosetta Stone (no English explanations, just clicking on pictures), Duolingo (not sophisticated enough) and others and finally decided on Rocket Chinese. I was pleasantly surprised with this product because it explains everything I'm learning in English and has wonderful tests, flashcards, and other tools to help me learn. The first lesson started with Ni Hao which is what I expected, where as other applications did not. Highly recommend Rocket for learning any language.
