GBA shell of what once was wow. Current university student and Quizlet user for 8 years. Every single great feature that was once free is now locked behind a paywall. The company is now more committed to emptying the pockets of students rather than educating them. Everytime is use the platform, I get absolutely bombarded with distracting ads. I get teased with free trials of learning modes THAT WERE ONCE FREE AND GREATLY EFFECTIVE. NOW I SEE ADS EVERY 3 MINUTES. Kinda hard to focus on my study set when advertisements are being shoved down my throat. Absolute joke of an educational company. Enjoy the bankroll though.

GBBasically functional Basically functional. Good translation function for languages. But it is so messy and un-user friendly. The whole screen is covered in things you don't need, constant pop-ups and other rubbish. I would pay for a clean version that had less functionality and just did flashcards properly, but the upgrade seems to give you even more stuff you don't want.

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...

NLMoney hungry swines It sucks, the ads make my laptop lag like every couple of minutes and these money hungry swines think I want to pay for this mediocre bs 'study tool'.

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!).
