Pros and cons of Learn German by MindSnacks app for iPhone and iPad

Learn German by MindSnacks app good for

This game is great to learn and practice new words, the interface is gorgeous and it doesnt assault you with ads for the full version! 5 stars, definitely getting the full version!
Great app with fun ways to memorize words! There are drawings, sounds and many other types of features to help all kind of people to learn in their best way.
This app is awesome its fun and very informative! I literally learned to count to 20 in about an hour.
Really cute and fun! So far it seems like a great way to learn German. Sehr gut!
Fun games, tons of vocab...its a fantastic learning app. I am also Minoring in German in university so this app is very helpful, but to those who are using this app solely to learn the language, you wont learn sentence structure, grammatical case rules, or adjective agreement rules on here. It has some of it but hardly a solid base for knowledge. But for vocabulary and communication, its fantastic! Definitely 5 stars.
Excellent for learning vocabulary and useful phrases, very well structured. However it wont teach you the mechanics of the language. The few case studies it has are poorly executed. Please tell me, how is one supposed to know the difference between "the father" "the father" and "the father"? This app is excellent if youre planning a trip to Germany, not so good if you actually want to learn the language.

Some bad moments

Only goes up to learning family names before you have to start paying. Labelling it as free is misleading.
I intensely dislike that this app I purchased for $4.99 on my iPhone has to be repurchased AGAIN for $4.99 on my iPad even though it is the same account just on a different device. I refuse to be scammed like this - this app should synch across platforms under one log in. Its ridiculous to have to buy the app on a Mac, iPad and iPhone separately. What a waste. While the games are fun, Im not learning structure or able to make proper sentences in German. Massive disappointment.
I got this app a couple of years ago and liked it. But the latest version will not stay running. POS.
As soon as I opened the app, It said it will slow down my iPhone and the app needs an update. Not working. Cant even login with Facebook. -.-
If you want to learn German you should get this app. It is really fun and you can learn tons of German words!
The frog game makes learning new word easy. Then the other games keep me playing and strengthening that knowledge.
