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.

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.

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.

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...

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.
