That sounds quite nice. How is the gamifying aspect? Enough to keep you hooked for daily lessons?
Duo also has a flagging functionality, but this used to be so much better with direct comment section below every answer. Sadly they removed it long time ago.
About a “gamifying aspect”, if you mean the leaderboards, I personally try to ignore them altogether, and they are a bother only when they start getting in my way, one of the problems I have e.g. with Duolinguo.
And about lack of comments, haven’t seen any on Airlearn’s side, so in this aspect, I’d think they’re in a similar level.
I personally hate the leaderboards on duolingo and try to ignore them entirely as well. But i like the daily “missions” and XP gathering + streak system. Does airlearn have those?
Hmm. One small update, was doing it slowly so maybe why I hadn’t seen it yet, but it seems the user can do only 5 lessons every 24 hours as a free user. If you’re quick on doing lessons and don’t intend on paying, it might prove problematic.
Unrelated to Airlearn, but was testing Drops and OkyDoky thanks to a friend’s recommendation. In the free lessons I could take, Drops felt more “gamefied” and with focus on assossiation of vocabulary and sound , while OkyDoky seems more focused on explaining grammar and syntax.
that looks interesting, it seems drops is meant for someone who already knows grammar (based on a bit of looking up). I should check this out since I really like repetitive practice that is gamefied. Thanks for the tip!

“Missions”, aside from the main lessons? None that I have found. Now, it has both an streak system and an exp system.
Ah sorry I think the real term is Daily Quests, like “do 3 perfect lessons today” or “earn 50xp today”.
But having an XP and streak system already sounds good! Will have to check it out. Thanks for all the info Auster!

That’s useful info. I personally am fine with that but some friends are doing more than that sometimes.
Although if the service is worth it I’ll gladly pay. Guess I can say for sure how I like it once I try.
