Worth the investment!! – CleverDeck Review

I’ve used this app for two years now. I teach at an international school and therefore am in the company of many language learners. I regularly suggest this app and frequently hear back that people have found it to be one of their go-to resources. The images are wonderful, as are the “enough but not too much” ability to customize the settings (choose how the information is presented, which categories to focus on, how frequently to review, etc) and the interface when quizzing. Swipe left if you got it wrong (the card will appear again shortly, up if you don’t quite nail it (you’ll see it the same session if you study long enough), or right if you got it (won’t appear until a future session); you can also long press to remove a card completely or edit it. I particularly like that the words are used in context of authentic sentences. So much of the vocabulary I know is due to CleverDeck. I’ve even had occasion to communicate with the developer and he has been incredibly friendly and responsive. I suggest you visit the app at least once a day while waiting for a friend or some other brief moment of your day where you want to feel productive without doing actual work (CleverDeck never feels like a chore). Don’t limit yourself to free apps like DuoLingo that seem designed for people who don’t really intend to master a new language. Make an investment in your own learning with this app. You’ll find it easy to sustain interest over time with this one!
