1. 5/5Love it

   I got a targeted ad on instagram for this app and it looked good so I decided to give it a try. I’m learning Russian and use several apps. This has become one of my favorites! I don’t know why but the way it teaches just works for me. At first it seems like they’re introducing too many new words at once but somehow they all stick with me. I’m sure there’s some science to it but all that matters is that it does work! There is quite a lot of content on the free version and I really enjoy the concept of earning gems to unlock new words packs. Also, if you’re tired of being shamed and penalized for mistakes, this app seems a lot gentler in its approach. You are given a chance to correct yourself but you don’t lose lives (there are none) or gems. Other apps give me anxiety about making mistakes (I’m looking at you Duo) which keeps me from studying but not with WRD. I’ll probably end up paying for the full app because there seems to be way more helpful stuff behind the paywall and if it works, it’s worth it! Can’t speak for other languages but for Russian WRD is fantastic!

2. 5/5Incredible for vocab!

   I’ve used this app to study vocabulary for both Russian and German and found it great for both! The pronunciations are very good, the existing sets that allow you to study for a specific level or area are very helpful, and the feature to listen to all your vocab is incredibly helpful for practicing when walking or relaxing. Overall the best vocab app I’ve ever used.

3. 2/5Aggressive with subscription

   The UX of this app without paying is very poor and aggressive. To demo this app you are slapped in the face several times wanting you to cough up money before seeing anything. You’re allowed a singular test before everything is gated behind a paywall. It tries to entice you with a “free” trial which only makes you commit to a subscription. This practice is predatory, and terrible UX design likely forced by bad sales teams. Let users actually use it for a little while before demanding money every 5 seconds before they get a chance to use your app. It’s disgusting behavior and results in a quick uninstall. Won’t be using this again and why would I? I’ve seen barely anything in the app when I know free competitors exist.

4. 4/5Has great potential but needs some modernization of vocabulary

   Tried the free trial for a few days for learning Turkish and it seems fairly good for picking up basic vocabulary fairly quickly. I appreciate the different small “games” it uses to target different learning styles. However, my friends have said a handful of the words that are taught (ex: black-sara, goodbye-elveda) are very outdated ways of speaking and that no one uses those words anymore. I would like to see an updated list of words that are frequently used in everyday modern life. I don’t want to be sounding like someone’s grandma when I try to speak.

5. 1/5Lessons thrown together

   I don’t know if they just threw together a table of words or if its all just straight up AI, but it’s clear that each language wasn’t individually tailored as a lesson plan. I noticed immediately that my target language’s To Be (Temporary State) didn’t have a separate listing for To Be (Permanent State) in fact, there was no word for it at all! There’s also absolutely nothing teaching conjugations. I appreciate that they (claim to) have native speaker audio, but it’s clear that they ONLY consulted a native speaker for audio, and not the actual structure of the lessons. All it does is teach you random words with no context, no conjugation, no grammar—NOTHING. Save your money, people. Use it on an actual teacher.
