Great but I have a suggestion

Overall this is a good app. I love how you can talk to people who are native to the language you are learning. And how you can also talk with people who are also learning the same language. There are a few suggestions i have though. Personally I think you shouldn’t have to have premium to lisent to other people voice recordings. Also (I don’t know if this already being done or not) I think you should have something to talk to people directly on the app. And also have group chats with multiple people, and maybe even have something to add people so you can talk to them. But like I said even with out these things It a good app and ill continue to use if these things are added or not😊

So helpful!!!

I love this app so much! I’ve been using it “on and off” for years and recently started using it more frequently again. When we ask questions, there’s always a template you have to pick for your actual question, but in the midst of my “off” season with this app, they added a feature where even free users can add a comment under the template to elaborate on your actual question, and I loveeeee that they did this!!!!! It makes the app much more convenient for getting your questions answered, and this also allows for more discussion amongst people’s answers! I like getting to help answer other people’s questions that they have about English, and I usually only ask questions about Korean or Spanish!

Posting ANYTHING in this costs money

You can answer questions and help all you want for free — and I do like to help people — but you cannot post any sort of question without paying money, regardless of your contributions. This was not made clear up front nor even when selecting any of several post types; instead, it let’s you type out what you want to ask or say and only when you click to post it does it tell you must pay.I realize that the companies that make these apps need to make money, of course, and so I would expect added value for money — prioritized questions, extra features or helpful templates, things like that.This app is very good at encouraging you to contribute your time and expertise to it while obfuscating that you won’t be able to ask for anything yourself until you cough up $$$. Again, I really enjoy helping people with editing and language but now knowing everyone paid this company for every question they asked while the help was from my own freely provided time and expertise. I feel used.

Wonderfully Diverse

HiNative is a great way to learn about language and culture through our peers around the world. Even if you don't have any questions to ask others for an extended period of time, or you aren't even learning a language, this app can be a great way to learn about things you never would have know about otherwise. Not to mention you can meet interesting people through it as well.(I live in the U.S, and the other day I talked with someone in South Korea through HiNative which I thought that was pretty cool).There are two things I'm not crazy about with this app. One, is that you are unable to hear other people's vocal answers to questions that are not your own, unless you pay money for the app. (I mean, language is a spoken thing, c'mon). The second thing I don't necessarily like is that HiNative has an annoying habit of sending notifications at night while I'm trying to sleep. You can just turn off notifications for that, but then I don't get the occasional interesting question from the app. They just need a better idea of time zones for they're users I think.

Awesome, But

I love this idea, and I think it's been very well thought out and implemented. I have a few suggestions for the developers though. I teach esl English - I have a passion for the language and for helping others. I actually found this app addictive, it felt really satisfying to help people express themselves well in English. But in the end I had to give it up, because with all my other duties, I couldn't justify the amount of time I was spending on it. Perhaps there could be some small monetary compensation for people who have proven themselves to be in the top, say, 0.1% of that particular language. That would improve the quality of the whole app, if people like that could be more motivated to spend time on it. Also, perhaps there could be a friendly "strike" system for those who are labeled "highly rated" , say, if they get 3 or 5 disagreements then an actual person could look through their answers and see if they still deserve that title.

Love it!~ I have a suggestion though!

As the title says, I love this app! It works smoothly for me and even though I'm not paying monthly (I'm considering it), I stil have access to a lot of great featured! Answers and replies are quick and it's a joy to learn other languages as I help others learn as well! One suggestion I think a lot of users could benefit from is a HiNative chatroom and the ability to add friends. I'm meeting a lot of great people from around the world that I would love to add as friends and keep in touch with (without having to whip out social media). A chatroom could be a bunch of public chatrooms made for users to practice chatting in the languages they want to learn without having to do it under asked questions. I know some users who simply want to work on speaking and writing to others in conversation. Keep up the good work on the app!

Great idea but translations are needed

A key flaw in this app is not understanding what some people are saying. If someone is writing a question in another language about English, how am I meant to understand and answer their question? I know there are the 4 uses of google translate and a subscription to translate infinitely but 1) not everyone has the financial means for that and 2) that feature is crucial for this app to be useful. Theres also a flaw in the “how do you say this” section because if a user is asking in their foreign language and the reader doesn’t speak it, then there’s no understanding there. At that point the google translate feature can be used by the reader but that almost defeats the whole purpose of asking a question to a native speaker when the reader is just giving them what the asker could have put in google translate themselves. This is an amazing app that has huge potential if it was developed a bit more.

Great app but I think some things could be addressed.

So far I’ve used this app for 3 days and it is doing wonders. I like how I always get a rely to my questions within the same day. There are two things I would like to see changed though, the biggest being the bouncing effect that a reply has. It doesn’t let me read the message clearly until it goes away and it even makes me dizzy. Maybe implement a “new message icon” on top of the message or some other indicator. The second is the fact that there is a limited selection to the Spanish language. It little confusing to see Spanish from other countries when In fact they are all pretty similar except for informal situation. Maybe just keep one label that says “Spanish.” Other than these small issues the app is really great.

Amazing app!

I’ve been learning two languages for years now, those languages being Japanese and Spanish. I never had trouble with Spanish, as every school I’ve went to provided students with Spanish classes.However, I never had the money for Japanese classes, and schools don’t commonly offer those (especially not for free), so I’m mainly self-taught. I got this app recommended by one of my high school teachers, who’d briefly lived abroad in Japan; Ever since, this app’s been installed on my phone.This app is so amazing and people are so kind and willing to assist you! I’ve actually learned a lot here! Highly recommend it for those learning any language, no matter which one it is!

Search your Qs first!

First I should say this app works better than any other language learning app! Who can help better than natives? I was enjoying this app so much but now I’m receiving less and less answers. New people come and start asking basic questions like how do you say hello how do you say how are you?? So every time my question is buried under so many already-answers questions and now I hardly get an answer! So I’m asking for a solution. Maybe more emphasise on searching the questions first? A manual of how to use the app that pops up every time you want to publish your question? Haha. Anyways it’s still so helpful I’m using it alongside with dictionaries! Thank you for this wonderful app and Idea.
