I feel they are not providing any service. If you once are entered into an one year subscription, they actually don't care about any bugs in the system whatever anymore.

Mondly's choice of starting with a massive bulk of cognates allows one to start understanding the phonetics and orthography (which I found hard and in great need of reform:)). Likable, funny, short a... See more

Good APP!

I have bought the Premium option and I am happy about it. I like the way the APP is organized. The customer service is patient and helpful (thank you, Efrain!).

Assistance with Account

I switched my account to a lifetime payment but had two e-mails. The customer rep, Ranny, was great in helping me switch everything over to one account and the replies were prompt and timely. Much appreciated!

Mondly was ok

Mondly was ok, but now is crashing every session and they changed the layout so that everything is too small for a phone screen.

Another weird thing probably more related to apple but the negative feedback and reviews left by others are being removed in the App Store.

Not trustworthy

I signed up for Mondly one year ago with an annual plan and quickly realised that I don't like the app. Hence, I deactivated the "automatic renewal". One year later, I got again charged and discovered that the "automatic renewal" was again set active. Support is not accepting giving a refund but proposes a discount on a lifetime plan - for a product I don't like and don't use. Very upsetting. I recommend only using one-time credit cards for them, they are not trustworthy.

You start with the simple words which give confidence. The only concern I had was words would pop up out of nowhere that I'd not learned yet and were not intuitive or similar to latin or English. And I would have liked to learn tenses along with the verbs.

I've been using Mondly for almost a year now and i still love it. Only the speech recognition sometimes annoys me a bit or makes one or two laughs. The translation is sometimes a bit imprecise... so i use a translator from PONS to check.
When i had a small problem, the support helped me quickly and easily.
Overall i think this app is worth every penny.

Program and Payments

I asked for monthly payments but was charged an annual fee. Please refund all but one month’s payment.
Also I want to use Mondly on the bus and when sitting with family watching something I don’t like on tv but all of your exercises require a voice response!!!!!!!cant you do some vocabulary or reading so I can learn without bothering others close to me? Thank you!!

Dear Merilyn,
Thank you for your review. We've tried to reach out via email so we can help you sort this out, but unfortunately, we were unable to get an answer. Please reply to one of our emails or reach out at support@mondly.com and we'll sort this out in no time.
As for the speaking exercises, you can simply skip them by tapping 'Skip microphone for now'. We hope that this helps.

I am doing Mondly after maxing out Duolingo

I have started withg Mondly folliowing "maxing out" all of Duolingo's German lessons. I like having paid Mondly for INDEFINITE lessons. However. Duolingo's site was much easier to use. I don't much care for Mondly's requirement on some lessons to click on every letter of a word, rather than typing the word and it being entered automatically as the program recognizes it. Mondly's version is much slower. I am nonetheless glad to have Mondly as an option.

Hello Linda,
Thank you for your review and welcome aboard! We offer a very wide range of exercises, tackling different skills such as typing, listening and more. When it comes to typing, although it might slow the process, we've found that it's really effective in cementing the vocabulary and knowledge in the long-term memory, making it easier to recall what you've learned months after it happend. Alternatively, you can try out our Handsfree lessons, which will only require you to speak out. We hope that you'll enjoy all the benefits Mondly has to offer and do not hesitate to let us know should you have any other ideas for features that you'd like to see in Mondly.
Happy learning,
the Mondly Team!

Mondly only stole my money.

I changed my mind before I even started to use Mondly. I wrote to their support and asked for a refund, but they refused. So the only experience I've got from Mondly... ehh.. They stole my money. There is nothing more to say.

Dear Ann - Louise,
Thank you for taking the time to share with us your feedback. I am very sorry to hear that we've stolen your money which is not how we operate. Our students have to buy a subscription and agree to all charges beforehand. I would very much like to clear out what happened. You bought a subscription and then requested a refund. We asked you to share with us the reasons behind your request so we can understand what went wrong and how we can fix it for all of our students. We only want to improve the learning experience for all of our students so we deeply appreciate all the feedback we get. I have checked our database and noticed that this was already handled by our customer care team. We do hope that you will still consider Mondly again in the future, if what we offer serves your needs better and that you remained assured that here, at Mondly, we want to understand how Mondly can be further customized to help you in your language learning journey.
We wish you all the best,
Ioana from Mondly

Good customer support

I lost sight of the date to cancel my father’s subscription. I contacted the service. They could not make a refund but we found a suitable solution. Mondly has a quick and friendly customer service. Thanks again!

Thumbs up from me

Okay. So. I want to learn Thai right? So I google the best apps to do that and find Mondly. it's apparently the best for beginners. So I buy the one month subscription and go to the app Store to download the app. I get it, log in and can't find Thai anywhere in the options. Naturally I mail them asking for a refund and they give me a nice explanation on how to access the Thai lessons! immediately told them not to cancel. Have done a couple lessons so far and I'm liking it so far but the customer service was great.

Customer Service (Finance)

I made a mistake by purchasing two licenses with two accounts.
The service I received not only migrated the accounts into one but also assisted superbly in accommodating me regarding the additional purchase against the initial purchased account price point which was a massive save for me,

The App itself is good, but the service I received was extraordinary.

Great customer service

I cannot say much about the App itself yet, as I bought an abo last week only. However I wanted to give the abo as a gift to my sister in law. So I wrote an email and received immediate reply with great instructions, that were easy to proceed. Service is excellent (Ranny).
