Y'all cannot imagine how much feedback I recorded from this thread now. Our backlog just grew A LOT haha.


Thanks man, I really appreciate it.


Yeah, we should make it clearer that the web app is not supported on mobile devices. You can get the app and then it should work way smoother.

We currently have a bug in the homescreen which should be resolved in the next update and you should no longer need to close & re-open the app to get the next conversation.

If you get the yearly subscription it's only 10/m ;)


We have a "guided" mode which should make things easier. You can turn it on in the settings (top right)


Noted!


Great stuff and no worries, we'll probably leave the transcription as is.


Yeah, we should probably clean up the logs. However, I was unable to reproduce the issue. Can you send a recording to me and then I'll investigate philipp@univerbal.app

The personal relationship is a tricky bit and definitely plays a huge role in tutoring. There are already AI apps out there that try to mimic a human like relationship (e.g. https://replika.com/) but it's unclear how/if this type of relationship also works for tutoring.


Last year, I traveled to Colombia and spent a couple of weeks there. To brush up on my Spanish before the trip, I hired a tutor that lived near where I was staying. Besides being tutored, I was able to get suggestions on getting around, places to sight-see, where to get the best street food, places to avoid a night, etc.

Sure, an AI could provide some of that but it is only going to be as comprehensive as the set of data it was trained on or what it could look up online. My tutor even offered to show me around when I was visiting. An AI will not be able to replicate that.


Yeah, that makes sense. Checking my inbox now!


Please reply to my email ty


Can you send it again? I can't find it.


Especially for people who are already fluent in a language, the lag can be a tad too long. For beginners, it's more ok since you get a nice "break".
