SEThe 7 days free trial is completely BS The 7 days free trial is completely BS. You can get a free trial, but only if you pay for at least one month. That's the first BS, the second is when you try to end the subscription. Lack of information and too many options make it impossible to navigate around the site.

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.

GBYou need to pay $35 a year to even make it worth your time… Quizlet used to be a 5-Star studying tool until they got greedy. You only get access to some of their limited features now which barely function and honestly aren't worth your time anymore. There are plenty of free and just better, studying tools out there now that you need to pay for Quizlet to be the least bit effective. Just wish we had the old Quizlet back before they decided to suck money out of students.

SETerrible Terrible. Even with an excellent network connection and a powerful PC, You will still experience significant lag. The site freezes at times, you get kicked out occasionally, and glitches are a common occurrence. Additionally, it includes ads, which is understandable for a free "learning" tool, but in 7 out of 10 cases, the ads can be highly inappropriate for kids and students. Some valuable features have been either removed or hidden, such as the writing mode, making it hard to locate. Previously free features have now transitioned into "premium" features that require payment. To make matters worse, the built-in voices sound horrendous and are unintelligible in certain cases. Quizlet also used to be better.

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!).
