Italian TV and music rocks!!! Watching great TV programs and listening to songs is a great way to learn Italian. I have been learning Italian for a few years now and this has to be about the most enjoyable way I have found so far.

I've tried them all... I've tried Babbel, Rosetta Stone, DuoLingo, etc and honestly found all of them to be frustratingly bad. I also tried watching NetFlix in Spanish with English Captions on, but found the translations tend to paraphrase vs spell out what's actually being said so it's not great for learning. LingoPie's captions are accurate, allow you to pause on words you don't know, determine the speed at which people are talking, etc, etc. LingoPie also offers instruction with live teachers. I don't know of a single online platform that can even touch Lingopie when it comes to learning Spanish.

Lingopie makes language learning fun and easy Lingopie makes it easy to sharpen your listening skills and learn to speak your next language like a native (not like a book). The audio and visual tracks are tightly linked to a very accurate closed caption which allows you to stop and repeat exactly the sections that are hard to understand or to hear. I like the pronunciation tool; you can repeat any line, and get a score on how you sound. The new grammar tool gives explanations of constructions and phrases as they occur. All of these tools are built into a series that I really enjoy watching, so it's easy to perservere... I like all of it!

FRAUD!!!!! FRAUD!!!!! I trusted this platform because of Stefano's Italian youtube teacher, however, They charged for the trail and frauded me. So when checking out they mentioned about 0 euros/dollars however when you entered the payment, they charged you 36 euros for 1 week's trail. They do mention that's its pre-authorization however first they didn't mention this while checking out, and then when I canceled the trail, the payment never came back.

Frustratingly glitchy......Has potential though I love the idea of this app and I think it could really help you improve your language skills especially if you are at the intermediate level. However, and this is a BIG however, the app is extremely glitchy. I constantly am having issues regardless of whether I use my Google Pixel phone, tablet or try to cast to my brand new LG TV. NOTHING works as it should. I even bought a chromecast for my new TV and I am still having issues. I was able to cast but the quality of the videos was poor and it showed but English and Spanish subtitles even though I chose only the Spanish ones. I have probably spent at least 15 hours trying to figure this all out but to no avail. So frustrating because I do think this has potential.
