Feature Ideas

The same way Duolingo and others allow for "streak freezes" which are a form of lenience on the routine of practice, I think it would be cool if LL allowed you to (maybe 3 times a month) use a "joker" to text with your AI avatars (or texting a loop provides waaaay less points/coins or something). Not as a replacement for speaking, but moreso for: the times when you can't speak out loud for 8 minutes and it's easier to textlearning how to text in general (my wife pointed out she can speak really well in German but can't text cause of the accents, same in Spanish)

I often struggle to remember and use new words. I want a vocabulary trainer that's part of the game, so that it becomes easier for me to learn, recall, and confidently use a wider range of words in my conversations.

I want the game to let me choose whether I practise speaking or listening comprehension. In listening mode, the avatar would speak 80% of the time. In speech mode, I would speak most of the time.

As a frequent player, especially during evenings and nights, I often find the standard bright interface straining to my eyes in low-light conditions. I want a dark mode option in the game, so that I can continue learning comfortably without eye strain, making my language practice sessions more enjoyable and sustainable.

It would be interesting to practice shorter phone calls; order, make appointments, etc...

I often want to tell the character who to be so that it’ll be directly applicable to my life. That would be so amazing. For example, I haven’t met a kid character yet and I wanted to practice telling the kids I teach chorus that I learned a bit of their language and to try teaching in the language. The Free Talk is nice because you can choose to talk about music for example, but the character won’t pretend to be 5 and in a music class for you. Anyway, I understand if that’s too hard to implement and I appreciate the space to make suggestions!

Right now we already have nice granular feedback on each line of a conversation, but it can sometimes be a little daunting to step through and review everything step by step. It would be really nice to also get feedback on the conversation as a whole - pointing out things like common repeated mistakes, monotony, and anything else that takes the full conversation into account. I am thinking something more longform than the grammar and fluency scores we currently get - more like text-based AI-generated critique. Likewise, feedback on all conversations that you've had so far could also be really interesting to keep an eye on overall progress. (In the interim, being able to export our conversations to do this ourselves could also work!)

It would be great to be able to download all transcripts for a language, to be able to review and study them later!

I can see when my points increase, but I don't understand the mechanism behind the system. More immediate responses, yes - I understand that feeds into the score I get, but even if I know I've butchered the pronunciation of a word, I still get a good score. A breakdown of why I get what I get would be amazing (even if it's just an FAQ).

the avatars are always asking about us in every line, if they talk more we can ask them about stuff

I do have a suggestion for an update, is there a possibility to include a conversation simulation with a taxi or bus driver at lingo looper in location France/Paris simulation? I really would love to master conversations with a taxi or bus driver. Possibly something you could consider this update with the app developers. Many thanks. Kind wishes.

I think being able to have a setting in the home that simulates conversations that typically take place would be useful, like interactions with family members, household chores, discussing bills/rent or things like interior design.

I think it would be cool if you were able to buy a news paper or listen to the radio to the radio and inform yourself about what's going on in the city or country. This doesn't need to be everyday but maybe once a week would be cool to enhance the experience especially if you want to feel more like a local. Since we're living in the age of technology and screens I thought it would be cool to bring to back something more old school.

I would like to be able to remove a language from my profile if I just wanted to try it out and change my mind about studying it.
