Ideas & Feedback

Feedback reports are really useful, but they are not actionable. Once you make a mistake and Langua offers you a correction, both get lost in the chat history. It would be very useful that Langua had some kind of exam/practice/review mode (with dedicated modules, ideally) where the system retests you on the grammar points, words or phrases you fail during the chats.

I think it would be great if the AI can access all of a user's chat history. In this way the AI can provide better conversation and can simulate better to be a real tutor. This feature can also be available only in premium accounts, I think it's worth it.

Please add a shuffle feature.

Sometimes pronunciation is not good, or I want to practice suggested (more natural phrase), but I cannot, as the dialogue moves forward. If there is a button to retry - it will give more room for improvement.

Hi I was quite surprised while trying the free version of the app to see that while generating vocabulary, the AI only produces lists of words on their own with absolutely no article for languages that use them such as French or Italian. Articles are essential when learning new vocab to learn the gender of the word which then affects adjectives, plurals and even verb conjugations and spelling. This is 100% necessary when learning vocab for the purpose of speaking which seems to be the goal of the app. You can edit these lists to add the article. But if we generate a list of 40 words in 5 seconds, you can imagine how much time it would take to search the article for every individual word and edit each vocab flashcard. This would be a necessary change for me to consider officially purchasing.

Based on my previous learning and all my previous mistakes, the AI should suggest what and how to do and learn next. And it should provide such exercises directly for a learning time of 30 minutes or an hour.

It would be so useful to be able to select few words in the app as it is on the website. I really like the website version and I hope that in the future the app will have more of the things from website. In general you are doing really good job, and the website version is helping a lot with learning progress.

It would be cool if LanguaStream kept a time log of how many minutes per day/week/month you spent watching video and listening to input.

I appreciate the level of complexity that beginner chat provides. But the Auto Translate distracts from being able to process the Italian I just heard. Offer an option to turn auto translate on or off in Settings.

Could potentially be triggered via a voice command like 'Hey Langua'

I added a word to my vocabulary from chat at some point using the default 'Add to Vocabulary' button inside the word popup. I came across this word later and didn't realize it had already been added since there wasn't any indication as far as I remember. This time, I expanded the 'All Meanings' section and clicked the add button next to all 3 of the definitions shown since they were different enough to be worth remembering. When going through my vocabulary list later, I noticed that I now had 4 entries for this word, each with a single definition. There are a few issues with this flow: If I'm seeing a word in a chat that is already in my saved vocabulary, it should indicate that in some way. This indication should not only be inside the word popup, but it should also be emphasized some way within the chat. The latter is the part that provides that extra signal to the brain of either "you've saved this word in the past, so nice job remembering its meaning this time" or "you've saved this word in the past and still had no idea what it meant this time, so maybe you should do some focused practice with it". If I add multiple definitions to a word, they should be added to a single vocabulary entry. In my example above, I would expect a single entry for this word with 4 definitions. I would understand the duplication if this were a word that had been saved with different conjugations or declensions, but this was a basic standalone adjective with the exact same spelling. I think that the worst offender in this case was when I added multiple meanings for a word within the same popup and it resulted in separate entries for each of those meanings.

One thing I really like about the multiple choice "idioms" game is that it requires minimal input from me, whilst still being interactive. This means I can access it in places where I don't want to talk or type too much, like on public transport, for example. For this reason, I'd love to see more multiple choice based games on the platform. One idea I think would be really cool is "choose your own adventure" style story mode, where all the user has to do is choose option A or B every paragraph or two. There could also be the option to type a different suggestion if the user is feeling more creative. E.g.: (In target language) A cat is walking down a dark alley. It's a moonless night and she's never been this way before. The air is full of interesting scents and she thinks she sees an open bin some way down the alley. At the same time, she's thinking of her warm bed and the tin of tuna her owners opened for her earlier. Perhaps there'll be more if she returns home? Should the cat (A) continue down the alley,(B) head back towards home, or (C) another option (please specify)? I'm not a programmer but I imagine this would be relatively easy to adapt from the existing story writing functions? And I could see it being really fun and engaging.

hi - it would be great if the user could pick a verb they want to learn more about and then have Langua generate questions using the verb across various tenses (just as it does not across multiple verbs for selected tenses in the grammar section). That would allow users to go really deep on selected verbs they want to focus on.

I would like questions about the story that the machine can easily generate. Ask me questions that I can answer about the story. It will make me speak out loud, adding to the value.

It's cumbersome for me (only 2 weeks into using your site) to switch languages. I am working on 4 different ones, all at different levels. I found today, that asking while in Spanish for a created new story from my saved vocabulary resulted in some German words being added into the Spanish and some made up words, too. I imagine you all will work this out over time and as AI develops. Thank you for all you are doing! This tool is amazing.
