User Reviews

Reviews highlight audio-enabled learning and strong bilingual reading features, with easy language switching and on-tap translations. Users praise the translation tools and overall usefulness. But recurring issues hurt usability: a small catalog and limited language coverage; frequent Language List/Load failures; no offline download; missing bookmarking; and word-list translation limits. Many want more audiobooks and more RU-EN content. The app is promising and well-made but needs stability, a bigger library, and feature improvements to reach its potential.
Pros
  • Audio features are available and helpful for pronunciation and learning.
  • Strong bilingual reading with easy language switching between languages.
  • Built-in translation and dictionary tools (phrase translations on tap and word translations on long-press).
  • Overall usefulness and well-made design with promise for growth.
  • Parallel-text format enables cross-language comparison for learning.
Cons
  • Limited book catalog and language coverage.
  • No offline download option for books.
  • Frequent Language List / load failures preventing library access.
  • Missing bookmarking feature.
  • Word-list translation feature is limited (cannot add translated text).

I can’t get any of the books to make sound in any language. And also, even if they were working, there are so few of them. I can read German without needing the audio but I need the Russian audio to truly learn.

Please help, I can‘t download any books anymore. I had a book I was reading. I wanted to go back and refresh the list. Now I got nothing. Deletedthe App

I absolutely love this app but it won’t show any books in the library anymore, it says failed to load the list of languages. Is there any way this can be fixed?
