I'm honestly kinda impressed at how bad this app is and how it keeps getting worse. This platform was so good when I bought a lifetime subscription but I almost exclusively used it on desktop/browser. Laptop mic stopped working and now I have to use the app. I've been collecting screenshots and taking notes about various bugs in the app. After not practicing for about a week, I can't do any vocabulary even though I'm being directed to do vocabulary practice. To sum it up: Price != Value

I've been using duolingo for 450 days, and just started babbel 17 days ago. Babbel teaches you much more grammar, forces you to spell, and will not let you test ahead. It does not include talking with real people, the interface is much slower. Everything about it is slower. Especially when listening, the clicks seem to take forever to get to the next question. Coming from duolingo that is a fun, game like atmosphere. This is an educational slow paced app. I only like the grammar aspect.

Hi Megan, We believe that everyone should try out several formats and methods to see which one suits them best for language learning. It often helps to combine methods. Let us know what we can do to improve your learning experience with Babbel. We're happy to work on it!

I want to love this app so badly. In terms of the approach to learning it's superior to Duolingo and other similar apps. More practical, more thorough, more explanatory. But the app is so buggy with the speaking lessons that it's almost unusable. Everything else is great but it's maddening to repeat the same phrases over and over and finally skip them without credit for completion because the app can't seem to recognize my voice. Yes, I tried calibrating my mic in the settings.
