DKSpreading misinformation and… Spreading misinformation and disinformation. There aren’t credible sources behind the information they put on the website and not trustworthy at all.

GBThey don’t do any quality control I found wrong items on some of the decks, so I looked for a way to report it, but there isn’t a way. They state, “Most of the content on Quizlet was created by students and teachers for personal use. Because of this, you may come across some typos or errors. If you notice that a set you want to study has errors, you can make your own copy and edit it before studying the material. We understand that this isn't the ideal solution because it doesn't let people know about mistakes in their sets or prevent others from studying material with errors. Our team takes content quality seriously…” If they took it seriously, they’d fix errors instead of allowing thousands of people to be misguided. Don’t give money to a company who obviously doesn’t care.

GBThey are liars right from the start They are liars right from the start. I was looking for a solution to a problem in a textbook that I'm trying to figure out. I find the book and the problem in their site. When I click on the problem I wanted to see, it told me to "create a free account to see the answers." Well, since they explicitly said "free account," I figured sure, I'll sign up and get spam for the answer (as you know anyone asking for your email plans to automatically takes it upon themselves to put you on spam lists these days). After I sign up, have to verify my email, *THEN* they immediately send me to a page telling me I have to sign up for a "free trial," then pay monthly for a subscription!!! Why would anyone in their right mind sign up with trickery like that?! They DID NOT state "free trial," they clearly stated "free account." I have no idea why any of you would've signed up for a site with deceptive practices like that. Sites like this really need to be removed from Google...

GBIt’s working, but I won’t renew If you’re looking for a fairly user friendly flashcard app (with a good interface) then this will *perhaps* achieve what you want. It serves my purposes well (I just need to go over content regularly without faffing with a thousand settings a la Anki) That all being said, for what should be a mature app it lacks basic features. Many of the gamification features (badges/achievements) just flat out don’t work - i.e. they don’t count things. Large sets are extremely difficult to use because there is no way to break them into smaller sections -- I’ve forgotten anything I’ve learned after 1000 other cards! The search function is borderline useless; there seems to be "events" occurring, but I can’t locate them. Would I recommend it? No. But, at the same time, £35 is acceptable and I’ve got my moneys worth, but won’t be renewing at the end (or for my next course!).

SDThis is great, but not great… It’s AWESOME!!!! It helped me learn my grammar aspects with the Q Chat, and with the limited comments (on free mode) I won’t be using my phone the whole time I am studying Japanese (or the whole day Lolol) It has also helped me to make a nice long vocabulary list, a custom dictionary, and help me understand many phrases and questions!!! My only problem with this is that the Q chat not can be really annoying because it asks me for my study habits every time I log on and the chats won’t save. The bot also made me talk about my study habits for an annoying 10 minutes straight when he finally asks, “ Is there any specific aspect of grammar, vocabulary, or kanji that you find particularly challenging or would like more guidance on?” Another thing I find annoying is that Quizlet has flashcards, but not many quizzes (which was the main reason I signed up) but overall, it good. Note(and edit): I use the free version.
