So far the lessons and associated exercises are enjoyable. I like the UI, it's dense but easy to use. One gripe: when listening to each lesson by aux in my car or by bluetooth headphones, there is a "crossfade" that omits the first second or so off each sentence which is jarring and makes it impossible to follow the speech exercises. Update 26/5/25: It's better with headphones but still has crossfade loss when using an aux cable meaning no good for driving (my car has no touchscreen).

Oh no! We sincerely apologize for the troubles you've had with the Pimsleur app. We are going to forward it to the development team for further investigation. In the meantime, we recommend playing the lessons with the Android Auto, as the app is fully compatible with it.We're here to help. Thanks!

Was just trying out the trial before i properly signed up. The voice recognition is quite bad. it confuses the sound of B with V whilst I was trying the vietnamese. multiple times, I tested it by just saying one word, which is ba, but time and time again, it kept thinking I'm pronouncing và. made no sense considering 2 very different words. I'll hold off on paying for it, knowing it's clearly not there yet. This is an easy fix for the developers.

App doesn't work. Joined through playstore and purchased full access. There is no option for Latin American Spanish in my list, just free lessons. App doesn't recognise that I've purchased it and offer the full course. No support function other than email. Not a straight forward process and no idea when or if support will respond.
