Focuses on useful phrases and uses tried and true repetitive methodologies to promote learning. > > **Cons**: Can be a little too repetitive and quizzing system can be confusing for young learners with test anxieties. > > Overall, great experience. Used it to teach child in preparation for trip to Spain and to give my language a much needed refresh. We were bale to hold our own on occasions when faced with non-English speakers. ----- ### "An App Worth Downloading" — 5.0/5 > **Amanda** | *17 December 2025* | Veterinary | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: I absolutely loved the exercises provided and the amount of languages to choose from, expanding my vocabulary. The layout of the app was always easy to use and navigate. > > **Cons**: I do not remember there being anything that I liked the least; I loved everything Duolingo had to offer. > > Overall I was very pleased with my Duolingo experience. I took French in high school, but really had not used it in years, so I started using Duolingo to refresh, but ended up learning more than I did in high school. I also loved that I could go at my own pace. ----- ### "Duolingo user review" — 5.0/5 > **Henry** | *6 September 2023* | Printing | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: The easy way you can learn languages in a interactive mode > > **Cons**: You can't make mistakes, only have 5 lifes daily > > It's the best free software for learning languages ----- ### "Great for beginners, but incentive system gets repetitive" — 4.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *18 December 2025* | Real Estate | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: The micro-learning approach really works well. Short lessons that fit into a busy schedule make it easy to practice daily. It's a solid foundation for beginners and the gamification kept me motivated at first. The incentive system is particularly effective when you're just starting out. > > **Cons**: After a while, the incentive system becomes repetitive and monotonous. What worked well in the beginning starts to feel like going through the motions. For taking the next step in language learning, it just doesn't cut it anymore. The motivation mechanics that initially helped now feel forced and don't add real value to the learning experience. > > Overall I'm quite satisfied with Duolingo. It's a great tool for beginners and the micro-learnings really work. The main downside is that the incentive system loses its effectiveness over time, especially when you want to progress beyond the basics ----- ### "Waiting for my Duolingo moment" — 5.0/5 > **Alina** | *1 February 2026* | Civic & Social Organization | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: I like that the classes are very practical and that the app is easy to use and I can practice pronunciation > > **Cons**: I don't like that it uses translation into the native language. I think it would be better if they removed it, as it would demand more from the student. > > My experience has been very good; I have improved my vocabulary and idiomatic expressions. I have improved my conversational skills to get by on a trip ----- Page: 1 / 40\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.com.au/software/239465/duolingo?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.com.au/software/239465/duolingo) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | ----- ## Structured Data
