Re: Foreign Language Learning Duolingo iOS App

2014-01-17 Thread Lea Langley
Hi all, I just put the Duolingo app on my iPhone. I open the app and all I got 
was a slide with VoiceOver. There was also a button that said learn languages 
free forever. When I double tapped on the slide I got nothing when I double tap 
and hold it got nothing. If anyone has any suggestions please let me know. I 
would really like to try this app on my iPhone. Thank you all very much and God 
bless, Wren

 Hello Robin and all:
 
 I have used this application with much success. working on german and it
 works great. there are a few things to get used to and your mileage may
 vary. it took a little getting used to figuring out just what things they
 wanted you to double tap on though after a few rounds of getting the wrong
 answer it went pretty smoothly.
 
 I recommend it highly :).
 
 Hopefully this information proves useful to you. Please let us know.
 
 take good care and I wish you enough.

You have to swipe from page to page with the three finger left or right. The

Re: Foreign Language Learning Duolingo iOS App

2014-01-14 Thread Eric Caron
Hi Patrick and others,


I gave this app a try over Thanksgiving and though it seemed to have 
potential I ultimately found it too difficult to use with VO.  I'm tempted to 
give it another try as Patrick is having success.  Others experiences and tips 
are appreciated.

 Hello Robin and all:
 
 I have used this application with much success. working on german and it 
 works great. there are a few things to get used to and your mileage may vary. 
 it took a little getting used to figuring out just what things they wanted 
 you to double tap on though after a few rounds of getting the wrong answer it 
 went pretty smoothly. 
 
 I recommend it highly :).
 
 Hopefully this information proves useful to you. Please let us know.
 
 take good care and I wish you enough.
