User Reviews

Reviewers praise the method and content quality, but repeatedly report the iOS app as unreliable: crashes, playback and download failures, loss of purchased content after updates, missing progress features, and slow or unresponsive support.

Pros

The Michel Thomas method itself is highly effective and engaging, emphasizing speaking and listening over games.
Content is superb and valuable, making the language learning feel natural and enjoyable.
The low-stress approach helps learners build a usable foundation quickly.

Cons

App stability and playback are unreliable: frequent crashes, long loading screens, and pause/play issues, including lock-screen problems.
Purchased content can disappear after updates or device changes, requiring repurchase or leaving users with unusable lessons.
Tracks failing to download or play, and progress not saved or resumed correctly, making it hard to continue where you left off.
Missing essential features like bookmarking, progress tracking, and accurate track order; navigation is inconsistent.
Customer support is slow or unresponsive when issues are reported, especially after upgrades.

I could go to France and get a personal tutor for this amount of money.

I don’t understand why this is not ranked higher or used by more people. It is hands down the only method that puts the language in your head and gets you learning through speaking. I can’t be bothered with games. I love love love listening to this and figuring out the language and hearing myself speak.
