Painful

September 18, 2025

pre Siri level of AI sounding voice. The creators didnt even take the time to record a real human… advertised as “minority and woman owned”, this should never be something to profit off of, and im a minority who owns a business. Test was full of “gatcha” type questions.

Easy and straightforward

September 18, 2025

One less because sometimes the audio would glitch out. I don’t know if that was because I was doing it through a phone instead of a computer but it did not hinder learning and was only a little frustrating since I could reload and it would be fixed or I could read the subtitles.
