What other learners are saying

★★★★★ "I've been using Memrise for about two years, studying European Portuguese. I have the paid version - it's a solid learning tool, and it has been my primary resource ever since got it. I find the Learn with Locals feature to be especially useful, more so as my Portuguese improves. My wife and I spent a couple of weeks in Portugal a few months ago, and we were able to handle all of our transactions - stores, restaurants, markets, car rental, etc!" -Voloúre

★★★★★ "I have been using this app for one year to learn Chinese and recommend it. I live in China and using this app has helped me to expand the vocabulary I pick up in my daily life and improve my pronunciation by seeing the pinging tones and by listening to two different speakers model and teach the vocabulary. " - Beth Williams

I got a paid subscription to Memrise because it used to be perfect for advanced learners with specific weak points to work on. However, it has now become rigid, requiring learners to follow a set pathway with no flexibility. It might work well for beginners, but it's no good for independent learners. What's worse, I can't get a refund for my annual subscription, despite the fact the app has completely changed. If you do subscribe, beware - they might change the app completely with little notice.

The videos are much more accurate to what I've learned thus far, but practicing vocabulary is still pretty clunky. If you don't know a word in the video, it gives you the answer and then you practice it right after. Of course when presented like that I get the answer right, but there's no SRS that presents that word/phrase to me later so I forget it again. The AI chatbot I don't use at all because the scenarios are far too advanced for my level.

I really loved Memrise in previous years. The specific structure and point system and gamification was something I found really satisfying. It feels like the app has completely changed and like I've lost all my progress and I'm going to be switching to something different. Honestly hate the new version and updates. If it reverted back and I got all my progress back I'd consider subscribing again but at this point I'm done with the app.
