LingQ review
7.8 TOTAL SCORE

Useful supplement to practice listening and reading

LingQ is an app that helps you learn a language through reading and listening to native content. One of its best features is that you can import your own content and automatically create new lessons. Overall, LingQ’s platform is a little buggy and difficult to navigate in places, but it provides solid value for its price.
