Hello,
so far I appreciate Rocket Russian. I think it's a very good learning app. I have been using it since 6 days now, and I have also bought a lifetime subscription for all 3 levels.
Plus:
-) Saving vocabs functionality
-) realistic dialogues
-) overall engaging content
Minus:
-) the price!! It's super expensive (even though I got the beginning of July discount, but 185€ is still quite some money for an app; but let's see, maybe it is worth the price; there is a 60 days guaranteed refund policy still).
Improvement recommendations:
-) please add the "Saved Vocab" function to mobile phone too!!
-) general improvement of mobile app to be more like desktop web app; desktop web app has much more functionality than mobile app (and I guess most people nowadays prefer a mobile app over a desktop web app)
-) dark mode for mobile phone
Still have to see how it's going to be for the rest of the first 60 days, but currently I would still buy again and recommend it to a friend.
Best regards,
Jacob

Rocket Italian is well designed to help develop both conversational Italian and an understanding of grammar and syntax. My only complaint is that the software sometimes has glitches as it speaks or listens, and doesn't always hear what you say, even when you're saying it correctly. I have tested this both with computer mic and speakers, and with headphones and dedicated lavalier mic.

Thanks so much for your review. We hope you're picking up lots of new Italian words and phrases. Regarding Rocket Record being inconsistent, if you continue to have trouble, please don't hesitate to contact the Customer Support team ([email protected]) for help. All the best with your language learning!
its honestly a really good program but there should be a feature to let you slow down the audio down just a little, Korean has some completely different nuances so it hard to hear them sometimes when it so fast

Thanks so much for your review, Sabian, it's much appreciated. Regarding slowing down the tutor audio, you can do that by clicking on the settings icon in the top right corner of your members area, and selecting a Tutor Audio Speed of either 0.75x or 0.5x. We hope that helps!
I am very satisfied. This was a gift so I don't know the price. I hope to buy level 2. I would recommend this course. I don't know how the experience with customer service was, since it was a gift.
So far I love it. This was a very thoughtful gift.
I'm having problems with my microphone. It's frustrating.

I enjoy Rocket Spanish because of the balanced approach to learning the language with a mix of spoken and written language. If there was an improvement I could make to the course it would be to make it easier to build group of flash cards for the words that are difficult for me to remember.
The sexism is very irritating--the male character constantly sexualizes his Italian co-host.
It would be helpful to be able to fast forward/ be able to review the lessons --the ratio of chitchat to content is off. Less of Alessandro and more formal grammar explanations would be great.

Response from Rocket Languages: Thanks so much for your review, it's much appreciated. We're sorry you're not satisfied with the Interactive Audio lessons. Please note that you can just listen to the conversation in Italian, rather than the full lesson if you prefer - just look for the Play It section on each Interactive Audio lesson page. For more formal grammar explanations, please try the Language and Culture lessons - there are approximately 5 per Module. We hope this helps!
super awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Living in quebec, I find some of the words or phrases taught in this course do not work well here. I wish there was a "quebecois" version of this app.

Thanks so much for your review. Rocket French focuses mainly on the French spoken in France, rather than in Quebec, I'm sorry. While you will be understood using the French you've learned via our course, there will be regional differences/slang terms etc that you may be missing. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact the customer support team.
this is closer to what im looking for
Mimrise and duo don't give any feedback, its just guess correctly with no insight
