1. 5/5Coding Paradise (despite the fact I talk about one issue half the time)

   As I was browsing the App Store for a coding app, I came across Mimo and decided to try it out. I must say, it was an excellent discovery. The app offers condensed, interactive lessons that really helped me understand important coding concepts. The lesson format is so engaging that I could find myself spending hours immersed in the app. However, there was one issue that bothered me, the hearts. Even though five hearts may seem like plenty, it's easy to make mistakes when rushing through the lessons. It's frustrating when the "Next heart in _:__:__" message pops up, disrupting the flow of learning. I found it really hard to remember the concepts I had just learned after waiting three hours to earn a heart back when redoing the lesson. And let's not forget the disappointment of finally earning a heart back, only to make another mistake and be hit with the dreaded “Next heart in _:__:__” again. It would be much better if I could move the screen out of the way to see where I went wrong and learn from my mistakes. I can’t complain too much about this problem when I could just get Mimo Pro, but all I ask is to shorten the waiting time a bit as three hours(unless it is shorter and I greatly apologize) is a bit long for getting a mistake. Even though I have been talking about this problem for more than half the review, I will still give Mimo a five-star rating as it is still one of the best coding apps out there. Thank you to whoever reads the entirety of this review. If you do shorten the time or implement something that can help with the issue, I will greatly appreciate it. Sincerely, the best (worst) coder.

2. 4/5Mimo: a comprehensive study

   Mimo is exquisite. I’m learning python at a rapid pace, like a rabbit, bounding past a turt and saying “Oh you simple one. Oh you one without wisdom. I have seen the light; I have been enlightened.” All that Mimo gives so freely couldn’t have been conceived in my wildest visions. Mimo... is like heaven come to earth. It’s sleek design, a satisfying ui and, dare I say, Mimolicios leaderboard has inspired me each and every day to expand my brain capacity. The Mimo experience; a hill with flowers atop, a place to call home, a place to call school. I have climbed passed my “peers”, with my intellectual prowess, easily shooting to the top of every leaderboard in my sight. I feel like a child, touching the face of God as my eyes are opened. This is what it all means. I feel like the summarians, national superpowers that saw what the human capacity currently was, and didn’t except it: no, they rebelled against there primitive form and invented the basis for the advances we are able to make today. As I sit here, wrighting this reflection of the greatest peece of the puzzle that is our human experience: I reflect apon my life before Mimo, the melancholy state I was in. I don’t shame those who are experiencing a similar way of living; no, I call them, I offer them a hand out of the dusty, well trodden rode they are crouched on, and say: “let me offer you something greater, something inspiring and powerful: let me grant you Mimo.” 4/5 cuz of some bugs

3. 4/5A Great Beginning

   Mimo was able to kindle my love for coding and for that I’m grateful. I joined a coding bootcamp after finishing the HTML, CSS, JavaScript track on Mimo. I’ve been thriving there, and I strongly believe the exposure to programming I received on this app has facilitated my journey. I bought the app during a Christmas deal, and it was worth it. Honestly, the full price would have been worth it, too. My main qualm comes from the fact that the content seems to have severely diminished in recent weeks. There used to be cool mini-courses on all types of different subjects, and I believe at one point early on when I first got the app, there was even a gallery to see top projects from others. Overall, I think the largest issue that will have to be addressed for Mimo to stay on the path of success and even burgeon in the future is communication and community. I feel like the dev team isn’t connected with the users. The social media hasn’t been active for years. The emails receive no responses and the bug reports may be harkened to, though there’s not even a ticket given in a courtesy email so one wouldn’t know. And, as for the community, I found several people who had used Mimo at my coding bootcamp which was really cool though it would have been nice to see an online community, both in the app and on related social media, both which are not the case.

4. 4/5Nice app, couple of flaws (including hearts)

   (Be ready for a long review :)) I have used this app for a while now and although I really love this app, the biggest problem is the hearts/lives. I wish that there would be either more lives, or lives that come back quicker. The lives take too long to return (4 hours/heart) and it discourages me a little. Sometimes I would accidentally pick the wrong choice or have a typo (as there is no autocorrect in coding) and poof, a heart is gone. The hearts are the biggest flaw but here are some of the minor flaws...the instructions and friend invites. I don’t know if it’s just me, but sometimes a question is unclear and I have to really think about what the right answer is. And because the hearts take a long time to return, when I only have one heart left, I just end up quitting the lesson and choosing a different one. Second is the friend invites. Recently, I found out that you can invite friends to earn a free week of pro so I sent out a couple of invites. I had one friend sign up for Mimo and it shows up that I have seven days of Mimo pro but my account is still in the free version. Additionally, I’ve had some people tell me that they signed up for mimo using my invitation link, but it only shows up as seven days. Overall, this is a really great app and I really enjoy it. The interface is nice and fun, and it definitely keeps you hooked to do more lessons. I understand that the mimo team is very small and not everything will be fixed right away, but I really hope they consider changing the heart reload time :)

5. 4/5CANCEL TRIAL ON 5TH DAY

   I was charged on the 7th day of the free trial the full price for pro membership which is $100. The frustrating part is that I wasn’t convinced the pro membership was even worth $100 even for a year. This app is a great way to get introduced to coding however it lacks depth and moves from concept to concept without ways to practice more to improve in areas you struggle with. The worst part about the whole situation is that Mimo has a $50 pro membership price that you can only see after they prematurely charge your account on the last day of the free trial. I was under the impression I would be able to further extend the pro membership by buying the monthly membership which is more affordable and would give me a chance to see if I can commit more time to use the app. Now I’m out of $100 I didn’t have to spend which makes me not even want to use the app because I’m reminded of the stress this situation has caused. At the least I could appreciate a refund that would equate to a 50% off rebate I could work with that and would feel better about using the app again. UPDATE: Changed to 4 stars as things were worked out and I do like the app however would give 5 stars for more diverse ways to practice in areas that you struggle with vs memorization of the same content through repetition.
