Babbel annoyingly reminds me, every day, not to break my streak with my Spanish lessons. I had set Babbel up to give me lessons on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, but the program seems to have ignored that completely. The other problem with Babbel shows up whenever I do reviews using the "writing" function (i.e., type your answer with your phone's keyboard): Babbel, which scores your performance, will score you wrong for no reason, especially with answers requiring that you type a space. Example:
Babbel asks: ¿_____ eres? (Where are you from?)
I type: De dónde
Babbel says: Incorrect
Babbel shows: De dónde
That's what I typed!
Very annoying. So I've learned not to worry about my score. Maybe the secret is to ignore the space and just type Dedónde, then let Babbel figure it out.
