After a year of using EF Hello, I’ve seen real improvement in my speaking confidence. The AI conversation practice and instant feedback make it much more interactive than typical language apps, and the short lessons are easy to stick with. I highly recommend it if your goal is to actually speak the language!

I have tried a few language apps and this one is definitely my favorite, I can go at my own pace but also it really does help you with pronunciation and providing feedback. I appreciate that it teaches useful phrases and gets you speaking quickly!

I used to love this app. But with new updates it gets worse. It used to be very simple concept and I loved it. You start your first lesson and follow the path. Now it’s very confusing. You have your ‘Continue Learning’ next to ‘Your Daily Plan’. Right after you have Course library with bunch of the lessons. Then you have ‘Your study path’ ‘Course collection’ and bunch of the lessons again. I forgot to mention ‘My course’ all the way at the top. Since you are using AI can it be just a ‘Day Plan’. You open an app once a day and you get your assignments for the day. After you done come back tomorrow. Now it’s very confusing. Do I go to my Day plan or Study path? Maybe have another menu with course library when you can pick a lesson if you want to. Maybe let AI make a plan for the day. Speaking section is horrible. I fail every time. Literally every time. How hard it is to say ‘My name is Anna’? I use BoldVoice to improve my accent. Oh boy that app is picky. But I practice and I able to complete assignment for the day. While I still can’t pass ‘My name is Anna’ at EF Hello. Another thing is a Roleplay. Concept is great but it’s not connected to your English level. You take a first lesson when they teach you how to say ‘Hi’ and at the end of the lesson they want you to say ‘Hi. My name is Alex. I live in LA. On my free time I love to travel and I love to read.’ And all you learn is ‘Hi. How are you?’ Talking about AI. It’s great to get a feedback on your Roleplay. But to get a letter from AI just when you selected a right answer? I spent more time reading AI responses after each question than learning. It used to be one of the best app on the market. Make it user friendly and simple to understand.

Love the method and content so far. Was, however, disappointed that they charged me immediately rather than at the end of the 7 day free introductory period, which left a bad taste. Good thing I like it otherwise would have angrily asked for a refund, but as I said, it left a bad feeling nevertheless. In response to developer: I did not use different Apple ID’s; I only have one. Sounds like an issue between Apple and the developer that needs ro be resolved so that it does not happen again? I do appreciate your responding, however.
