Review summary

Dreaming: Language Learning is widely praised for its effective comprehensible-input approach, generous content library, offline downloads, and habit-friendly design. Many users report meaningful progress and confidence gains. Common drawbacks center on iPad formatting issues and the need for a long-term, consistent time commitment. Overall, the app is highly effective for many learners, especially when used consistently over months and years.

Pros

Comprehensible-input method leads to significant progress and confidence, with users reporting speaking more naturally after hundreds to thousands of hours.
Huge, varied library of content with engaging presenters across multiple levels.
Offline video downloads enable learning on the go and in low-connectivity environments.
User-friendly app interface that supports habit formation and easy navigation.
Strong community and ongoing support from the Dreaming Spanish team; many users become evangelists.

Cons

iPad compatibility/formatting is not fully optimized; not fullscreen on iPad and users want a better iPad experience.
Requires a long time investment and slow initial progress; not a fast path to fluency.

2026-05-26	ni*****	The app is essentially the website in mobile format. Missing a few minor features but still very very solid and worth supporting. The team takes feedback on not only content, but on how the app works as well. Premium opens up a PLETHORA of new content so it is very worth it. Highly recommend!

2026-05-25	ch*****	This app has 10/10 content, but the lack of Picture-in-Picture support on iPhone is a major drawback. I purchased Premium hoping to watch videos in PiP mode, but only the audio continues playing when I leave the app. For me, Picture-in-Picture would add tremendous value and make it much easier to fit Dreaming Spanish into my daily routine. It’s one of the few features I feel is truly missing from an otherwise excellent app. I would even be willing to pay extra for PiP support if necessary.

It makes it more fun but the reason I am giving only 4 stars is sometimes I cannot exit the video in the app or the whole app goes dark except for the video then I have to maximize and minimize the video a few times to get the app to work again.
