Great app <3

I love this app because you can still learn languages without paying!
I was very bored watching tiktok then I saw this app, I thought I’d give it a try and now I don’t wanna stop learning my chosen language.
Overall 9/10, because it still asks you to pay for premium.
I recommend 100%

Not bad!

Though I have been learning japanese mostly from bunpo, lingodeer is amazing! I’m learning katakana at a fast rate, but my only problem is not really important, but i noticed something. In the hiragana section, the character ‘wo’ is referred to as ‘o’ in some way. I dont know what happened, but can you fix this? Anyways, this app is amazing! Highly recommend.

Arabic beta is excellent

Things this app does better in comparison with Memrise and Duolingo:
1) Meta-Language explainers available on mobile. Very nicely laid out and explained, split up into the different lessons.
2) Audio questions aren’t “marked”; I would often find myself unable to progress on Memrise because I had repeated a word to the best of my ability and the app wouldn’t accept it as “correct”, it was infuriating.
3) Forcing you to type in characters and speak early. Really excellent.
4) voice-overs are clear and not annoying.
5) overall app layout and design is satisfying and slick. It’s a physical pleasure to click through the questions.
Stuff I hope/expect to see, now or in future:
1) thorough drilling of the whole alphabet (which is something Duolingo did better than Memrise) and hopefully some hand-written character stuff too.
2) some explanations between the different dialects of Arabic (starting with standard Arabic was totally sensible though), as an advanced unit.
3) Dark mode needs a little more contrast on some buttons; minor aesthetic detail.
4) Some form of feedback on the audio questions, my latest ones were marked “good”, but I didn’t get much else back from that. Forcing the user to listen to themselves is super important though.
5) some gamification of learning features in the main app would be nice. I really don’t want to pay another subscription for their extra stuff.
Overall, really happy with what I have seen so far. It’s been frustrating trying to learn Arabic on mobile; the market leader Duolingo had really poor customer service/error reporting feedback follow up and should have had a better quality course up at that point. Memrise was just wonky and strange. It’s nice to see an app dedicated to symbolic language with a beta offering of such high quality.

James from Sydney

1. Lingodeer Apps is quite well designed. Its’ content, to me, is rather tailored to teens/young adults. It is definitely cool for them to pick up certain languages (instead of playing games) while they are on public transport. In that sense, I gave 5 stars.
2. Several “new” languages as addressed in its’ menu come more thorough & lengthier with their lessons. Although they all have minor glitches that stop learners to progress/finish a session & move on; I was indeed frustrated when my phone screen turned blank, as I was looking forwards to tackling the following conversation bits. For this reason, I changed my mind & gave 4 stars.
3. Given its’ pricing, for sure, Lingodeer offers the best grammar based courses, as well as values, among the rest of lingual apps. In particular, the “fluent” sections on the menu are just fabulous; whenever I want to clarify certain points within an entire conversation, explanations pop up & are just awesome.

BEST APP!

Definitely prefer this app! I am studying Korean , the first time I tried to learn Korean was with the app duo-lingo and it skipped the entire alphabet which wasn’t helpful at all. However when I tried LingoDeer, it has tremendously improved my learning on Korean. I growed so much knowledge about the Korean language thanks to this app🤎 plus it made me think that learning Korean was actually really easy :)

Great learning app

This is great I’m glad I found this it’s much better than dulingo. It easier to understand and learn the Japanese language with this. The lives system in test out doesn’t work well I think it should be based on scores instead of lives and so people can figure out what to improve instead of making it feel like a game cause that’s what your other app is supposed to do in regards to being a game. 😀

Best language learning app!

I noticed a lot of people were learning korean using LingoDeer so I gave it a go too. I loved the first few lessons so much, I didn’t hesitate to buy the subscription. Also, when they teach japanese, there’s a section for learning kanji which I think is fabulous! Other languages that have characters and stuff like Chinese also is the same. Another part of the app I like is that there are small phrases that you can learn and hear to use for your next trip. Highly recommend for language learning!

Hello reader

LingoDeer is a great app and stuff but sadly I don’t have enough money to pay to do the other lessons and I have trouble learning Japanese at school. My grade in the subject is D. I wish I had a enough money to pay to learn Japanese. I might get a job for Nintendo in the furture.

This app started off really good, and I learnt a lot, however, as I progressed the lessons started to become unavailable and said that I must pay for a membership. I could only do the tests, without knowing anything in it and learn that way :( very disappointed...

Best Language Learning App

I've used so many different language learning apps and websites in the past, lingodeer is by FAR the best, all I can say is that you have to try it for yourself.
This app is not free - you can't really expect to receive all of the content you would in a paid class for free, it's not fair. The subscription is very fairly priced, and you can buy a one-off payment for about $100 when in reality what you're getting is worth so much more than that.
I just wanted to say thank you to the developers of Lingodeer, you're helping and inspiring me as well as so many other users, and I can't wait to see how this app continues to grow and courses expand, you have a really special thing here. Keep it up. :)

Please make LingoDeer free :((

This app is really good and it has lots of lesson but why do we have to pay to learn lessons :(, it’s quite expensive to me and I can’t afford it but I desperately want to learn Vietnamese. You can still have premium lessons, but please don’t make lessons cost money, or learning other languages, somethings that can be in premium is learning offline. But otherwise this app seemed good based of the one lesson I could learn for free and I want to continue to use it if it wouldn’t cost money. Thank you.

Love this app!!! Spanish and Korean

Using this program for Spanish and Korean and I am so impressed and getting better everyday.
Wish I had it the first time I tried to learn Spanish 20 years ago. I love the cadence of the speaker. Not to fast. And how I can listen at every stage to try and copy accurate pronunciation. It really works with my brain. Surprised by my retention.
Breaking me of my news addiction.

My favourite app, and my favourite way to learn a new language

I never expected to enjoy learning a language so much, lest alone when being taught by an app! However, Lingodeer somehow has added every aspect of what I've been searching for all into one place. I use this app every day, and always look forward to the next lesson. Thank you team for developing such a fantastic app!

Fun and Well Paced

你好!
Lingodeer sets itself apart by teaching all aspects of the language simultaneously: reading, writing and speaking.
The lessons are broken down into manageable 5-10 minute chunks and the app is very well designed and simple to navigate.
I enjoy being able to take new lessons at my own pace and choose to test and review everything i've learned so far at any time in order to build confidence. If one lesson hasn't stuck yet you can review it and test yourself on individual lessons.
The pronounciation tasks are especially helpful to ensure good habits are built and the reminders and notifications are subtle and friendly while encouraging you to keep it up.
Whether you want to spend an hour or two learning or just five minutes you feel you are making progress and getting better every time! 再见!

Amazing teacher but not ALL FREE

Really great app! It makes learning Korean so much easier because it actually teaches the grammar and structure, instead of just words. The only problem is that the app isn’t completely free. When the trial ended i was so devastated, and the subscription is a bit expensive to afford. I understand that the subscription is what earns money for the company, but it’s just a bit too expensive. Would totally use if it was cheaper, or free!

Regarding Free Content V/S Paying

I previously had LingoDeer on other devices and it was a very helpful and informative language app (I actually found it a lot better than others I had used during school, etc.)
However, I was about to do my second lesson today when a pop-up appeared saying I would have to pay to continue. I am all for paying for something good quality, but it is a bit of a shame when I can’t even do more than the Basic lesson for free, AND when I don’t currently have the money to spend on this app :(
Wish LingoDeer and the team all the best. You guys have made a seriously good app, it’s just a shame I won’t be able to continue to use it any time soon.. Hopefully in a few months or so I will have some money aside, or the app will change enough to once again have (a bit more) free content.

The only APP i know that legit Helps

A lot of Apps teaches you useless lesson you wont use on everyday life, or wont teach you grammar. This app teaches you how to Pass N4-N5 japanese as well as learning natural basic grammar structure which is very important. Its got reminders and small quizzes as well to reinforce memory this is so far the most useful app ive downloaded in comparison to other 10apps i tried to use. Please dont change regarding fees and stuff because this is good! 👍

Lingodeer is really good

Lingodeer really makes learning another language so easy. You learn topic by topic and everything is broken down so it is easier to understand. The only thing that I wish they hadnt changed was adding a membership fee, this app used to be free and it was the best thing I had ever come across for that very reason. Membership fee aside this app is still one of the very best to learn languages with.

Way better than other language apps

So yesterday I found the LingoDeer, looking at the reviews, it was an amazing app. I’ve used Duolingo and Drops before I found this app, and it gives me learning tips and basically everything I need to know.
I’m learning Korean right now, and it’s giving me very useful tips on Hangul, and it gives you tips unlike Duolingo and Drops.
I had to use a separate app and two learning apps to try and learn Korean, but I found LingoDeer and it’s a very good app for learning languages like Korean, Japanese, Chinese and much more! I highly recommend this app to others.

真心大推薦

在Apple store 上面看到好評,下載來試用,沒想到才試用不到一天就決定購買了!本身也嘗試過許多市面上的語言APP軟體,但是基本上沒有像小鹿這樣系統性的,還幫你把文法重點整理好變成小貼士,真的太強大了。
用其他的app學習當然也會有一些效果,但忘的很快,小鹿的內容設計的合理,簡短又循序漸進,在這裡學了一天的西文比起在其他APP學了一週的西文記住的內容更多。
然後自己的日語法語也利用小鹿的迷你課程可以幫助自己不斷複習記住重要知識點。 真的很喜歡。
若要說缺點的話,就是西文裡面有一些例句有點奇怪不符合現實(我是一個機器人? 有點詭異的例句啊⋯⋯),雖然是拿來練習文法,但還是希望可以更接近現實。
然後就是目前能夠選擇學習的語言還不是非常多,期待可以加入更多語言。也希望現有的語言級別可以繼續更新到更高級階段,那就完美了❤️

One thing missing

This is such a good app for learning languages. Its UI is superb and the pronounciation is leagues ahead of some other apps ive tried, but one thing irks me. When you get something wrong, you arent told what was wrong. Im learning korean and i was making some grammatical errors regarding '는' and '은'. I didn't know what scenario called for which letter and it was driving me insane. I would get it wrong and it wouldn't tell me where i went wrong and what it's supposed to be, im not sure if i missed it all the time or if its just not there. But that is the only problem ive experienced with this amazing app.

Use this to learn Asian languages

I’ve been a Duolingo user for years and found the app useful for European languages, but could never fully grasp the subtle complexities of Asian languages. After downloading LingoDeer I can say I’ve found the best app for learning Asian languages, in particular, Korean.

It was Amazing...

Lingo Deer was, and still is an incredible app and super useful for learning languages quickly. However, after discovering all my progress had been lost, I ALSO discovered that you know had to pay for everything after the first lesson. Meaning you generally only learn ~4 or a bit more phrases and words before you have to pay.
The app is still good none-the-less, but i’m not prepared to pay and i’m a little disappointed by it.
Zeusboz
2019-04-23

Good delivery system and very fun but...

Really makes learning fun and intuitive to understand.
Just a few points to consider to make it even better:
1) Kanji integration could be better applied, either through mnemonic breakouts or sub-lessons. As the Kanji characters are introduced quite early on and are quite complex (e.g. airplane), stroke illustration or some fun mnemonic to help people remember them would improve the lesson
2) Integration and alignment with JLPT levels - highlighting or marking kanji with JLPT levels and making the content aligned would help provide standardised levels of aptitude progress markers, rather than specific to LingoDeer.
3) Guidance on how to use the iOS Japanese keyboard.

First time I've ever been gutted by a trial ending, had to buy it

This app has been astronomical. I was genuinely distraught that the trial had ended because it was working so well for me, and that has never happened for me before. I tried Duolingo for Korean in the past and it skipped the alphabet entirely, the speakers are lightning fast and it was impossible to keep up with. It really threw me in the deep end even though I had limited prior experience with learning Korean and extensive experience with other languages.
Lingodeer on the other hand has been brilliant. It starts small, gives you plenty of reinforcement, the speakers speak at a reasonable pace and the audio and visual feedback is brilliant. In-depth explanations of words and grammar and contexts of use are included in tooltips when you get introduced to new words so you don't have to exit the lesson to look something up, and best of all, SUBSCRIPTION IS OPTIONAL. I'm a broke masters student but I didn't hesitate to drop 90AUD of my savings to buy this app outright because the sheer value of the learning content could easily reach into the thousands if you were to do this by traditional means. Its unbelievably worth it.

Wonderful learning tool!

I love how it has the option to have hiragana and kanji without romaji. And also that there is a grammar explanation before every little ‘chapter’. After a few days I bought the full subscription because I can see myself using it for a long time.
My suggestion for the further development would be to have some texts that students can read to try to remember the kanji. Also implementing some of the WaniKani mnemonics would be good for kanji learning.
Thank you for such an amazing learning tool!

Great app

Have only just started but I feel like I’ve already got a better grasp of the language through this app than than through the other apps and materials I was using. I’m excited to see how the learning platform develops and how it improves my knowledge and understanding of the language.

Great App!

this app is really helping me learn Korean well. i like how it explains how the grammar works and why and how the sentences and words are structured the way they are. the only downside is i think it's programmed for a different country because it gets to 9 PM and it's wanting to do Korean hahah but other than that it's a great app!!
edit: recently some of my answers have been getting marked as incorrect when they’re not wrong. sometimes it doesn’t even highlight the incorrect section because there isn’t one. this only happens when i have to make the sentence by typing or choosing words. please help!

I love this app

Knowing a second language fluently (Japanese) I thought that self studying Korean would be easy. I taught myself Hangul, but found it very difficult to stay motivated to learn everything else since I’m not learning in a classroom. Tried countless apps, and was very sceptical of LingoDeer, but I’ve found this app to be incredibly engaging and my progress has quickly improved. I really do love it, I’m not sure how advanced the lessons will get in the future but everyday I am looking forward to learning more. 난사합니다!!

Greatest app!

I’ve always wanted to learn Korean and this app is the best one yet. I’ve tried countless of different ones but they always end up having to pay for the rest after the first lesson. Or they end up being too slow and kept on asking to get premium status. This is the best one in my opinion!

Best Korean language app

Before finding this app I really struggled to learn Korean! Whilst still not naturally easy for me, the information, lessons and structure have made my learning experience fun, satisfying and importantly I am actually learning.
If you want to learn how to read, write understand and actually speak Korean (other than parroting phrases), you seriously should consider this app.

HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS

This is only my third day using the app and I already can’t wait to tell people all about it, that is if I could discover all the fun at once! This app makes learning so enjoyable, I really appreciate how they explain grammar and sentence structure in depth so that you gain so much more than just useful phrases.
I am currently using it to learn Japanese and there’s a function where you can choose to display alphabets to your liking (from full Japanese to only romaji and everything in between and in any combination), which is so awesome because you can adjust that to your learning level.
All these plus a function to change the background colour/mode AND the cute graphics have made this app a super pleasing one to use.

BEST LEARNING LANGUAGES APP EVER!

I’ve also wanted something easy, fun and at the same time free when it comes to learning languages apps and this app definitely ticks all the boxes I was looking for.
I love learning korean it’s my hobby now.
I love everything about the korean language, and this app has definitely showed aside of good teaching of the korean language.
The grammar and vocabulary are both awesome 👏.
Thank you so much for this app. I will so recommend this app to my friends :).

Great app!

I've been learning Japanese for roughly 5 years now, through school and apps. This is the only app that has actually been a great help in learning the language, and I honestly think it's better than actual school. It has correct grammar and pronunciation, and it will be a great help as I'm going to Japan this year!

Kwow!

I haven’t been using this app for very long but it is so much easier to use and understand as well as more in depth than duo lingo. Best of all it’s free and has no ads! It’s also fun and gives you the option to record yourself and hear when you use some of the sentences! Thank you so much! I have been wanting to learn Korean for awhile so this on top of watching kdrama/kpop should defs help out!

Best App for languages

I wanted a Korean app to supplement what I was learning with a tutor. I had downloaded a bunch like Duo lingo, you name it!
This app is HANDS DOWN the best. It gives you the theoretical knowledge with its introductions to each topic. It then gives you little practice tests that really consolidate the learning. It is also so well organised into topics and progressed in a very logical order. Please give this app a go.. you won’t be disappointed!!!

LingoDeer easy to use

It’s very easy and fun to use, also you have to memorise it and just try I really enjoy it and definitely recommend it to family and friends but when we are seeing if we got it wrong or right if it was wrong you should point it out

Honestly try it

I have been trying to learn Korean for some time now and Duolingo and Memrise and all the other one are good and all but if you want a app that teaches you, really well what terms mean try it out. I found that it so much better use it this to learn Korean than other language apps. Please download and try it your probably enjoy it. Ps* can’t say if it as good doing other languages through this app other than Korean but I’d say they all have the same standard. Which is amazing.

Actually works

I’ve tried many different language learning apps and learning languages many ways, but I’ve found the best way to learn is a little more hands on than writing.
This app teaches you very quickly sentence structures, pronounciation and all things you really need for a language. It’s really easy and pleasant to work with, I suggest it to anyone wanting to learn a language!

In love! Fills the gaps where other apps don't!

So many apps don't focus on the grammar and vocabulary so I'm stuck with shocking pronunciation and I don't know how sentence structure works (when I don't have time currently to use my grammar book as pay for a tutor) so this really helps!! I adore that you can turn romaji OFF! I hate when other apps won't let you because then I just stick with remembering English characters, not kana! Ugh! So thank you!! What a brilliant app. Love the interface, everything is so smooth, the test activities are varied, and I've only just started! Love the cute mascot deer too :3 brightens up my day (the yellow theme probably helps too). Thanks for reigniting my love for languages !! ❤️❤️ just studying Japanese right now as I have a language study trip coming up, but I'm SO excited to learn Korean and Chinese next. Ahhhh !! Love it!!

Amazing app. Deleted memrise and Duolingo and drops.

I had a yearly memrise subscription, that I cancelled, and then deleted the app.
I had a Duolingo app, but it was very slow paced, deleted - not my style.
I tried out drops, but it was slow paced as well.
Then I found out about LingoDeer, and it has changed my language learning habits for life. This app is free and I could learn the languages that I want to learn with the proper grammar involved. The other two apps don’t show how the grammar is used. This app shows the sentence structure and how the language is co trusted, making it easier to learn Chinese, Japanese, and Korean. I am enjoying this app so much, that I feel so guilty when I don’t touch LingoDeer for a day. It’s free which is such a godsend. The developers of this app are really modest people to offer it for free, no annoying ads or time limits in it either! I’ve learnt that three of these languages have shared words, and it’s so much fun!
A recommendation for improvement though, maybe an easier way to switch between the languages? Like a little drop down at the top of the main learning screen would help. I like switching to keep the brain going!
Anyway, huge thanks to the developers who have made this app. You are truly gifted people who have given broke college students like me a will to live! Thank you!! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

Asian Language Duolingo

So far, better than the current Duolingo Asian courses. I would love to give five stars but you guys have to check your English translations as some are unnatural.
We wouldn’t say “We like Korean” or “We like French” if we’re meaning the people. That makes it sound like we like the languages or the country in question’s food/cuisine. To render these sentences in natural English, one would say: We like Korean people or we like French people, for example.

AMAZING!!

This is honestly the best UI design I have seen in an app to date!! Not only that but every area of education, learn, fun, game design juice, user experience.. so thoroughly thought out. I just love it! I've just started using it and have already learnt a lot! It tests all areas in a great way that is fun and exciting :) Great design and developer team behind this app! 감사합니다! :)

Much, much better than duolingo!

This app actually makes me feel like I, learning the language instead of just memorising specific sentence patterns. My speaking and listening has improved drastically due to this app too! If you are currently using duolingo, switch to this app right now. If you aren't, then this is probably the best place to be learning a language!

Very thorough

Puts Duolingo's course to shame. I've always felt like a lot of language learning apps skip over a lot of essential supporting theory, having you learn words and full sentences and phrases without ever trying to explain how anything actually works, but this one is different.

Amazing Learning Experience

A friend recommended this app to me for learning Korean and I have not stopped using it, by far one of the most efficient and simple apps to help understand complex languages such as Mandarin, Japanese and Korean. By breaking down the grammar and vocab, the app really helps you construct and define sentences rather than just giving you whole phrases to memorise.
5 stars, quality content, keep up the good work!

Excellent App for New Learners

The big advantage I have found in this app over some others, is the explanation of grammatical features. This can really clear things up and make sense of sentences when it could otherwise be guesswork.
Disadvantage of this app is that it you can feel a bit isolated. This could be a plus for some but I like to be able to converse with others on the same journey. Perhaps a feature for down the track. Otherwise an excellent, well paced learning tool.

Awesome app!

I haven’t been using the app for long but I find it very simplistic and easy to use. I like that you get to choose whether you see romaji, hiragana, none or both. And the typing exercises within the lessons is great, really makes sure I’ve remembered the phrase, and is something I don’t believe Duolingo has. Looking forward to seeing how the grammar sections are done which are later in the course. I have no complaints :)

Great App

This app is actually amazing. the courses are really fun and interactive and I enjoy using the app. the cute little drawings make it so much more enjoyable. Compared to Duolingo, the Korean course was so helpful, it explained to me how and where the subject/object/verb should be used in a sentence. this app is just the best and I have recommended it to all my friends who also wanted to learn korean and have all moved over from Duolingo to this app. I enjoy this app so much and I am so thankful that you have made it completely free. and maybe in the future, you can add an in app purchase where we pay around a dollar which would support you and you could give us costumes to dress up the really cute deer and personalise it to how we like. just a suggestion :)) thank you for developing this app, I am so happy with it.

Great App

I really loved this as an alternative to the Duolingo’s Japanese course. Duolingo is fantastic with all the European languages in my opinion but when it comes to Japanese I believe it has to be taught differently. Lingodeer does this really well and the Grammar Notes is definitely the best feature. It makes it so much easier to learn the language and definitely takes away a lot of the guess work which is sometimes apparent in Duolingo. I definitely recommend this app. :)
