app is good mostly, gives you a lot of free lessons that's good but. if you sign in with a different address, it gives you different courses and hides others. The ads are the problem with thus app, some are scams al ot of them they hide the close button so you can't close the add and it sometimes automaticaly opens the ads website or play store. (i know there's a timer bar for the ad to wait for) The only thing you can do to carry on with the course is to close the app and re open.

Hello ALIEN, we're sorry for your experience. Using a different email creates a separate Alison account, so courses may differ. We're also sorry about the ads—we're continuously improving them and appreciate your feedback as it helps us improve the app for everyone.

There is a variety of courses, even though you will need to pay for certification once you pass it still works out well given that the course material and assement is free. I have taken 2 courses and may take some more in future. The certification is stored on your account so you do not need to buy it straight away (or at all). I found the courses interesting and the app works better on Android phone than using the desktop version for watching the videos and using the playback controls etc.

Do not use this for swedish. It doesn't support special characters, and displays tenses wrongly. After just taking the introductory module, I am discouraged from continuing. Aside from the grammatical issues, the information it gives you is inconsistent and it changes the answers to questions between practice and test. For example: "Jag heter Fredrick" literally means "I am called Fredrick", but the app translates it as "My name is Fredrik", which also changes the name's spelling!
