Transparent Language (Online) Hack 1.1.7 + Redeem Codes

Often loses server connection in recording/ rating activity. I fell for the suggestion it was my internet connection at fault the first time. It’s clearly the app or the server supporting it. Occasionally progress towards refreshing vocabulary is dropped, as though the whole session never happened only to get the same words in the same order the next refresh vocabulary session. Not all bad, but these issue have lingered for many months.

This is the BEST language learning app ever. I’ve been using Transparent Language for about 6 months now, and it is crafted exsctly how I like to learn. I beat Duolingo, I tried Rosetta Stone, even FreeRice. But Transparent Language takes the cake. My library offered it (check your local availability on their website!) but I loved it so much I bought a subscription myself. Learned 1,500+ words and haven even begun to dream in Italian—that’s a real good sign, you language learners. Get this app!

Honestly, this is very basic level learning plus the app is sluggish. Drops app is 10x better than this app for beginner level material. I gave it 3 stars cus it’s still useful material.

I can study Spanish on my iPhone just fine. It has a good variety of exercises and is a good interactive interface. It’s nice that it can recognize the words and grammar using the mic.

This app would be great except it’s not formatted correctly. It’s portrait view yet all of the screen isn’t on the screen, plus there’s no way to scroll. I’m just trying to do my homework on the go but all of the correct answers aren’t visible to select.

Great content and functionality on the website, but the app just fails to deliver.

None of the practice games function. It just tells me I’ve completed it already

This is terrible. It gives you some vocabulary with no explanation and drills you on it. That's the entire app. And you have to pay for it? I'm glad I only spent a dollar through humble bundle.

So, this company has been around for a pretty long time. They used to be called something else, but their software is essentially the same, and that was back in about 2003… And sadly, their application design hasn’t really been updated that much since then, the only thing that has really changed is that smart phones are a thing now.

So first of all, full disclosure… I did not pay full price for premium access to the product, I bought it as part of a humble bundle.. But I will be reviewing it from the perspective of someone paying full price.

To start, the contact is pretty decent. It is about what you would expect to find from claims to take you from absolute beginner, to a decent intermediate level in a given language. My issues with this program have nothing to do with the level of content. Because if you go deep enough into the contact, you will find a lot there. That being said, just like its competitors, it depends on what language are learning. For me, that’s Japanese, and it happens to be one of the more fleshed out programs. But I know for some minority languages, they are willfully lacking in terms of content. If I am looking at a language, learning platform, this is something I would want to know upfront. And almost no where are they really forthcoming with the amount of contact that they provide for any given language.

Now, to the main reason, I got this to begin with. The fact that it’s supposedly walks you into a high intermediate level of Japanese, and Mobile access. As I said, before, I have zero issues with the content, but the app is barely useable. It looks like an application designed in 2003, if that. The application itself is sluggish at best. And at worst, it’s almost nonfunctional. The boundaries for some of the interface buttons, overshoot the usable screen area on my phone, and therefore do not register often when I push them. The other issue I have is that what passes for “speech recognition” is just a visual, waveform comparison, and it does a terrible job of analyzing whether or not you actually have a good pronunciation.

It is legitimately one of the worst mobile experiences for language learning app I’ve had in a very long time. I understand that they are trying to update and modernize things, but this is something they should’ve given due consideration two years ago.

Given the fact that they usually charge $250 a year, I can’t in good conscience recommend this to anyone hoping for an experience where grammar is at least pointed out to them, that has a usable mobile experience so you can learn on the go, and is looking for something that will engage them. At the price point they offer this for typically, it starts making Rosetta Stone wife time subscriptions look like kind of a bargain. Just my two cents, I hope it helped.

Very slow, sluggish and boring.

The app seems awesome so far except for the fact the app doesn’t connect with my microphone to practice speaking. Not sure if this is only for iPhone. Maybe the developers could update the app to ask if it could access my microphone. I checked my settings under privacy and it is not even listed as an option. I’ll continue using the 14-day trial, but if that doesn’t get fixed I’m certain I wouldn’t solely rely on this app, since that’s a big part of learning a language.
