Reading the reviews on Google Play, it seems there is some in-app purchase, but on the website, I see no indication paying is needed at some point ( sounds like all is free actually when reading the website) so I am confused...
Just tried it out. Seems like a nice idea and can see how it might be useful. However, for the Android version in Chinese, it's very difficult to get the translations of the words - it defaults to translating entire lines. Also, when you try and adjust the amount that is being selected, if it hasn't finished reading out the whole line, you get two chunks being read simultaneously.
Hey, thanks for the feedback. We definitely need to improve the app for Chinese - word tokenization is much harder here so we don't handle word selection well right now. Our app is most polished for languages like Spanish, French, German, Italian, and Russian. Stay tuned though! We definitely want to make it work just as well for Chinese in the future!
Though one other thing, it didn't seem that clear how to add words to flashcards. I later figured out that it automatically adds them when you click translate, but might be better to have an option to add them or not? Or at least a little notification saying "flashcard added".
Only accepting US phone numbers for a non-region-specific app in [current year]?

I thought that would be the case. I tried it in French and I understood the app much better. Though one other thing, it didn't seem that clear how to add words to flashcards.

I like it. I like how I can click words or phrases in the article and it translates them directly. The video section es muy bueno también. Gracias por tu ayuda!

With growing concerns related to both privacy and malicious mobile apps, maybe it would be a good idea to make at least an "about" page telling who you are and what info is collected.
