I'm afraid this app has gotten worse. The lower levels are presented in English. The intermediate levels are people speaking at full speed recorded in "realistic" situations, meaning poor sound quality. The music is louder than the voices. Once a video lesson finishes, you have to step back through several links to get the link to the next one, and then find the tiny play button on the video. Before, it was full of articles on different topics, recorded at several speeds.

The website and the app, have english and german versions. But your progress and account in each language, is separate from each other. The troubling part is that using the app version, it may suddenly change its language, and i have yo relogin and change the language. I have no idea why having separate progress tracks is a good idea. The material is amazing though!

Great app, very easy to use and I'm enjoying the "Nicos Weg" course. One suggestion for the mobile experience: can you make it so that in exercises where you have to fill in the blanks, the keyboard does not automatically capitalize the first letter? Why: 1. It would force the learner to consciously capitalize words, in the same way that one would do while writing; 2. It would prevent unintended mistakes caused by my phone capitalizing the first letter in words that don't need it (verbs etc.)
