Amazing mini readings side by side that are a unique and very useful way to truly learn a new language outside of vocabulary lists. One can easily create personalized flashcards with a press of the finger. The variety of abridged reading material is splendid. One can re-read often, that's good! YThe news stories are great. I really loved the songs, but very disappointed that I can only access each song one time. I hope it is a glitch, because one needs multiple times and repetition to learn....

Excellent app for learning Spanish. The stories are interesting, the glossary is a great aid and the changeable reading speed is a great help for development. Just one suggestion: it would be nice to have a go back to story button at the top of the glossary rather than having to scroll through the entire glossary to get back to the bottom 'go back' button. I would also like to have both the translation of a word and my notes about the vocabulary word show up equally in the glossary.

This is a very usefull app for beginners and intermediates to read texts in thier target language. I especially like that the text can be read to you. It helps me figure out how to pronounce new words. I have also been loving the newest feature, where you can read the lastest news stories in your target language. If you are a beginner or intermediate in a new language, and you need some more practice material, I absolutely recommend!

Great app! Beelinguapp forcuses on learning through reading and listening, similar to Lingq but more streamlined. There isnt as much content but it's easier to use and far less expensive. I really like the dual language approach so when I'm reading in Portuguese I can quickly glance at the English text to get the definition of a word rather than interrupting the story to look it up. Its easy to create flashcards on the fly for later review.

It's perfect for my reading studies. I'm trying to incorporate a natural voice when reading Hangul (Korean), hanzi (Mandarin), and the mixed alphabet of Japanese. It's greatly improved my literacy rate and I've began to easily recognize so many sounds. It's also improved my memory rate on the characters. Overall, it was what I was looking for when I downloaded the app. The only feature I wish it had was a romanization option.

Great app for language learners but not for absolute beginners. Large amount of children's stories, fables, and snippets of larger books as well as news articles uploaded weekly. You can listen to stories as the word that is being spoken is highlighted on the screen. The app has the option to split the screen between your native language and second language so you can track your understanding without having to switch between tabs or pull up a dictionary. There are a lot of little problems that keep this app from being a 5 star app. There is this random jarring screeching sound every now and then that needs to be fixed ASAP as it really ruins the immersion. The word highlighting feature blurs words sometimes making you click away from the word to read it. No built in dictionary and different content creators upload stories so the stories can vary in quality. Only one man reads all the stories (at least in Arabic). Changing up narrators would be nice. Overall Great app for reading and listening comprehension but lots of little annoying bugs.

This app may be useful to you, but some of the things I want to do are complicated for the app. The interface that pops up when in text selection mode is confusing and doesn't make sense. Additionally, I'm unable to select multiple lines. My selection is locked to a single line at a time, which is frustrating when trying to translate or add to my glossary more than one word at a time. I would suggest a better translation interface rather than using the default 2-second long system text bubble.

Great idea, but very poorly executed (at least for Portuguese). For the handful of stories I went through, I found there was at least some audio issues. Some of the text would not match exactly what the reader was saying. But the most frustrating part of the experience is the volume of the recording would be extremely low forcing me to turn up the volume all the way. Then at some transition between sentences, there would be a very long and disruptive sound (almost like static) and would scare me

If you're looking for something free, don't bother with the app if you hate constant ads even in a premium trial. There are constant popups and notifications to get premium and so much blocked content for a free user to pay for premium. As much as the content is nice there are other options out there that are less annoying. There's a whole section on the app to "Help Us" with stories and translations and I'm not even sure why that's a thing too^^

I can't get into the app. It opens to a page asking is this the first time you've used this app with yes/no buttons. Clicking on either will advance to 2nd screen covered by full page ad offering discount on first year of premium version for 30 minutes. That's as far as I got. No x button to close, no setting/menu, buttons, nothing. Closed out of app & reopened again but its still frozen on that screen. I'm now going to uninstall from my device's settings. No rating on its intended functions as I never got past their sales pitch page. 0 stars.
