What other learners are saying

★★★★★ "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

It was a great app but it's updated version at some instances is confusing and lacks the devision by levels it had before and some other necessary features. It is not as through as it was before and complete sentences for more difficult levels are a must as well as learning with native speakers the words, phrases and sentences in the level. Please if possible change memorize to the original version. Thank you. I just noticed that you added new languages. Thank you. I'm getting used to new layout

I have used memrise for almost 10 years. I loved how they set up their courses. They had amazing structure and I always felt that the phrases were a lot more practical and useful then other apps. I love how they combined learning, review, and the video from locals. I hate the new version. It's terrible. They completely changed the structure and format. The only thing that I like is how they have the experience levels. This is the perfect example of "if it's not broken then don't fix it".

I enjoy the recent changes made to this app; no more zero-to-light-speed training exercises. However, the placement of the continue button is causing some frustration. Overlapping with the spacebar could certainly create an inconvenience while typing in the written portion. Review section that can playback words and phrases to practice annunciation. Other than that, keep up the great work.
