User Reviews

Polygloss is praised for its fun, interactive approach to language practice focusing on writing and creativity, supporting many languages including rarer ones. Users appreciate the ad-free experience and fair in-app economy. However, it's best suited for intermediate learners as beginners may find it difficult without prior vocabulary. The app suffers from a limited user base, some interface bugs, and occasionally unclear images. Suggestions for improvements include audio communication features and better feature tracking. Overall, it is considered a valuable supplementary tool alongside apps like Duolingo.

Pros

Engaging and fun way to practice languages with real people, focusing on writing and creativity rather than rote memorization.
Supports a wide range of languages including fringe and lesser-known ones such as Esperanto and Interslavic.
No ads and fair in-app economy, allowing free use of main functions with optional paid support.
Effective for intermediate learners to practice grammar, vocabulary, and expressive language skills.
Intuitive and clean user interface that facilitates quick start and ongoing use, promoting immersion without pressure of real-time conversation.

Cons

App is not suitable for absolute beginners as it requires some basic vocabulary and grammar knowledge to participate effectively.
Limited active user base, making it sometimes difficult to find matches or practice partners.
Some bugs including issues with match and karma point tallies not updating correctly.
Confusing or overly simplistic images can make describing or guessing challenging and frustrating.
Lack of features such as match history review and audio interaction options suggested by multiple users.

Recent reviews

After signing up the app gets stuck at the eye m white loading screen. Occurs both with a Google account and email signup. ☹️

I've really been enjoying this app, and I find its in-app economy very fair, especially for a free app. I love that they support fringe languages such as Esperanto and Interslavic, and although I came here for Interslavic (only to discover that I can't learn it from scratch here), I stayed for Esperanto. I really enjoy exercising my vocabulary from the creative writing exercises this app requires.
