Very poor voice recognition despite trying multiple microphone, speaker phone, and headset options.

Too many words introduced at a time to be able to truly memorize them. Lessons progress too quickly without real review on what has previously been taught. Need a way to review flashcards from all completed lessons in one spot. No response from customer service when a question asked.

Thank you for your feedback! I suggest checking out our Rocket Certification tests, under the "Tools" section, you'll find useful tests to recap what you've studied here. We're very sorry to hear that you did not receive our response to your question, Brenda. I have resent this to your email address, so you should have received it. All the best!
it doesn't pick up what you say and it sometimes just says the wrong thing even though its nearly indistinguishable from the prompt

The courses themselves are good however, Speech recognition is woeful.
Some days, there are no issues with speak recognition and then on others I often get many "no speech detected" errors followed by "speech recognition is busy". this makes the course unusable when this happens.

Additional grammar explanations helpful. The pronunciation of "Je" or "J' "changes significantly depending on the words and their grammatical spelling following "Je". Rote memorization is not a good approach when grammar determines pronunciation.
Response from Rocket Languages
Awesome to hear that you're enjoying our comprehensive Language and Culture lessons! We understand that rote memorization isn't everyone's cup of tea, which is why we offer three reinforcement activities focused on pronunciation at the end of each lesson.
since i'm being asked to write a review every 2 seconds, which is interrupting my course i'll go ahead and do it now. there is way too much emphasis on speaking for such absolutely abhorent speech recognition. i already know a lot of beginner spanish as i'm living in colombia with my colombian girlfriend. even she couldn't get the voice recognition to register a word half the time.
also, there are just too many flashcards, spelling words, voice recognition parts after each story lesson. i just listened to a 20 minute audio file about how to say hello. then you continue on with flashcards and pronunciation that has absolutely nothing to do with the audio
Response from Rocket Languages
Thank you for the feedback, Lloyd! Our voice recognition is trained on native Spanish speakers, so this should not happen. But don't worry! One of our friendly customer support team has contacted you and will set you up on a call with our IT team to resolve the voice recognition issue. We appreciate your comments concerning the flashcards; we know they can be overwhelming and are currently working on a solution to retain the comprehensiveness but make them easier to digest.
