My favorite foreign language program of many I have tried many foreign language programs and I think that Rosetta Stone is the best because they teach you similar to how a child learns - with photos. I have had to call them and they answer promptly and have always been extremely helpful. I have also taken the tutoring classes with a real teacher and 3 others in the online class and it's very good and helpful.

Lifetime Subscription EXPIRED A few years ago, I bought a LIFETIME SUBSCRIPTION. Apparently, my lifetime subscription has expired. I wrote to Rosetta Stone and they responded that I need to renew my subscription. I bought a LIFETIME SUBSCRIPTION, you scum! Do NOT give these people your money. They are SCAMMERS.

Rosetta Stone's lifetime subscription is a scam! A few years ago, I bought a lifetime subscription to Rosetta Stone. This year when I came back to continue learning the intended language, I realized that it does not work anymore. I contacted customer service, they just told me that I have to purchase the software again, otherwise, I cannot use it. I pressed on squeezing out an explanation about this issue, but they did not give me any explanation. Marketing the software as a lifetime subscription is a scam and consumer protection agencies should watch these practices very closely.

Still no proper help from customer… Still no proper help from customer support - they simply fob you off thinking it is an issue with your computer (which I know for certain it is NOT) - I even bought a headset as they suggested! There are other ways to learn out there and until this company sort out their non-existent customer 'service' (who always seems to be someone called Fabio) and update their software - GIVE IT A MISS - it is way too much hassle to get the mic to work, to get the programme even to launch and to get the voice recognition to work if you ever get the mic to work! I am really disappointed.

Great app, just some poorly laid out segments Great language app and scenarios, easy to learn. However their audio reader is horrible. It doesn’t pick up sounds and you have to repeat several times and this is on different devices with and without headphones on. They also have this story/conversation section where you are supposed to speak the answer but the sequence of the story is not clear as it’s a reel that’s not well laid out. Example is the camping trip with a dog and bread and apples.
