I've set up two different trial lessons and in both cases the classroom did not work. the first one had sound issues - he couldn't hear me despite my mic lighting and permissions granted - and the second ones he was saying I didn't join, even though I did (and left, and tried again). The app itself feels cluttered on the landing / Today page. And generally navigation is not intuitive. Also when I went to buy credits the UI didn't reflect a successful payment the first time until I backed out.

Overall a good app, lots of great features like access to podcasts and other helpful features in addition to searching for tutors. I took off a star because I'm not a fan of the recent app make over. They changed the navigation and interface, and now I have a hard time finding anything. Lucky for me I have another device with the previous version. Also not a fan of the "AI fish" they implemented. I'm concerned they're trying to turn this into another duolingo.

UI is cluttered, unintuitive, ugly. At least you can still connect with teachers. First you are presented with a fish that you will have to name, then it tells that the fish is sad lvl1 and you need to feed it or something? Then you get to front page with some useless clutter. You need to press "book" and "find new teacher", then you are greeted with some AI slop profile thing. Finally you can find the teachers. To see available times you need to click through 3 purchase menus in the profile.
