What other learners say

★★★★★ "I've been using Memrise for about two years, studying European Portuguese. I have the paid version - it's a solid learning tool, and it has been my primary resource ever since got it. I find the Learn with Locals feature to be especially useful, more so as my Portuguese improves. My wife and I spent a couple of weeks in Portugal a few months ago, and we were able to handle all of our transactions - stores, restaurants, markets, car rental, etc!" -Voloúre

(Learning German - beginner). The best language app I've tried yet. It keeps phrases small and managable, has repetition and keeps coming back to things I practiced earlier to prevent forgetting. I wasn't prepared to learn spelling too, but I'll take it as a positive. The app needs tweaking in places, which I can make notes for, but I'm happy with it overall. I'd like to see the literal translations shown more often as it would help me to make better sense of the words.

I had been doing well with this app, found it very helpful and clear. Then I had a challenge to complete... I haven't used this app for a while now, but to progress to the next stage of learning, you are given a "mission" in which you have to translate what has been asked. I remember being asked about a passport, food and drink. I hadn't been taught any of those words! I can recognise Hangul characters but i have no idea what the English translation is, so maybe have a dictionary to hand!

I've used this for years on the website and app on several different phones. Logged in again yesterday for the first time in a while, loved that I could pick up exactly where I'd left off. Today, though... suddenly community courses are gone, plus it doesn't even let me use the app. It just opens onto a page telling me community courses are gone, and I can't exit that page or move to anything else. So, not only have they removed the best feature but also rendered the app unusable

If you're seeing an information page when you open Memrise, it's because you were learning community courses previously which can no longer be accessed on the app. If you would like to be opted into the New Memrise to access the app for official content, please submit your email via this form: https://forms.gle/ECapHjQYohfD7hD38 🙂

What's new

We have retired community courses from the app in this build. All of your community courses and your learning progress in them have been moved to a new Community Courses website. To read more and head to this new site, please search for the Memrise blog.
