One thing I found odd about Duolingo is that they disabled offline lessons. It was the most powerful thing they had -- to me at least. I was able to board planes and just grind for hours, I could travel cross country and do the same. Even in normal travels I was able to use it without constant disconnects -- it was great.
But they decided one day to just nuke it... for no reason as far as I could tell. My subscription went with it. Shame.
EDIT: based on the responses below I did a quick search and it appears that it was silently removed, refactored and then returned slowly back to people depending on their account age/device. This is actually incredible news (to me).
Not with you on that.
I just did your exact usecase on my flight of 9+ hours and it worked just fine?
Maybe they shuffled around the way you set something to download? I can confirm that this feature still exists (atleast on iOS)
Sounds strange - I've been able to do offline lessons as recently as this week. On android with a free account. Maybe this was something temporary in the past?
