It's boring. There is no picture to help me connect with the phrase or words. They throw a sentence at you and have you repeat it, hoping you remember. It's no different from when you just Google Translate phrases and remember them yourself. Maybe throw an interactive game or something. I wanted a refund, but there's no refund button either. I guess I'll just take this as my loss.
Response from Rocket Languages
Sorry to hear that, Chalampol. Please know we take our 60-day refund promise very seriously, and our support team has reached out to you to initiate the refund process. Wishing you all the best with your language learning!
Unable to get the mic working. Tried for hours and no luck. Followed all the instructions for Chrome and Windows 11. It only worked sporadically.
Response from Rocket Languages
Sorry to hear that, Murray. Inconsistent success with the voice recognition may suggest an external issue. Please contact our team at support@rocketlanguages.com, and we'd be happy to jump on a call to investigate the problem further!
why are there at least 60 vocab words for every single lesson. how am I supposed to do this
Response from Rocket Languages
We know this may seem overwhelming at first, but the ethos of Rocket is to ensure you have all the information you need to fully comprehend the lesson in one place. The key is to break down the activities and lesson content into manageable chunks so you can truly retain what you're learning without getting bogged down by excessive information. For instance, you could split these into two sets of 30 and complete them over two days. If you would like more suggestions or assistance, you can always reach out to us at support@rocketlanguages.com. Best of luck with your journey to learn Spanish!

Sorry to hear that, Juan. Please contact your friendly support team at support@rocketlanguages.com, and we'd be glad to see what we can do to ensure the voice recognition is functioning properly.
This is a review of Rocket Korean. I have found Rocket German Level 3 to be useful, and would recommend it, but I am very disappointed with Rocket Korean.
I am 71 and in the last few years I have learnt five European languages to a good conversational level. I began to learn Korean a few months ago and have used two well known audio courses, both of which I love, and I am working every day with an excellent app that specialises in Asian languages. So I was not a complete beginner when I started Rocket Korean, hoping it would help. Unfortunately, I have found it much too difficult, with too many new words introduced much too quickly with very little help and reinforcement.
If Rocket Korean had been my first attempt at language learning, I would have given up, believing that I was either too old, or not clever enough, since I find it impossible to retain any of the material covered in its lessons. Fortunately, from my experience with the other methods I know that I can learn languages, even Korean, if the material is presented in the right way.

Hi Martin, thank you for leaving a review. Korean can be quite a tricky language to learn for English speakers and the Korean team have tried to structure the course in a way that makes sense for English speakers. They will take a look at these early lessons again to try and make them clearer for our learners.
please add some ADHD mode it will help with focus!

Hi Max, thank you for your review. We will look into this and see what can be done. All the best!
At first I thought that Rocket Japanese was a great course. However, I became very disappointed with the way they structure things. The conversations are very limited and the grammar is poorly explained. Japanese is a very structured and logical language and Rocket Japanese does a poor job of conveying the structure. I am overall very disappointed with the course.
I bought the entire Japanese course, yet Rocket continues to send me marketing and promotional emails telling me to buy their japanese course when I already have.

Thank you for your review! We appreciate your feedback and thoughts however, we know that many of our learners are just starting out with Japanese or learning a second language for the first time. That’s why we focus on keeping our courses accessible by starting with simple conversations and grammatical explanations and gradually moving on to more advanced topics. If you’re facing any specific grammar challenges, feel free to reach out to us at support@rocketlanguages.com. We’d be happy to help you out!
As someone who's been using Rocket Japanese for years and generally liking it, I'm writing this review to express my frustration. AGAIN you have redesigned the app in a way that seriously hurts the functionality! Why do you keep doing this? (Especially with no option to switch back?). Why did you decide to make the kanji suddenly very small, forcing me to zoom in on phone? Makes the kanji lessons a huge pain! Change it back! Im getting tired of you guys constantly screwing up your own app!
Response from Rocket Languages
Thank you for your feedback, Brion! We understand your concerns and that updates can interrupt your learning. However, please know that all our updates aim to improve the usability of the course and, therefore, your language learning experience. As was the case prior to the update, font and script sizes can be enlarged in your phone settings. If you have any further feedback, we'd love to hear it, so please reach out to support@rocketlanguages.com!
Waaaay too much garbage emails sent on a daily basis. Extremely annoying. Constant pestering to buy. Massively overpriced. Would not recommend.
Response from Rocket Languages
We're sorry you feel that way, Stephen. We completely understand that our course will not always suit the preferences of every individual learner, but we firmly believe that the price reflects the comprehensive content and various lesson types crafted by experts in the Italian language. We wish you all the best with your language learning!
