I deleted it a long time ago because it just wasn't a good way to learn a language for me and progressively got worse at that with each update. It always felt less about learning and more about keeping you in the app as often as possible for as long as possible.
Anki is the gold standard but I never got around to making a deck
Clozemaster was cool when I kept up with it. Nice little exposure challenge and takes advantage of spaced repetition. So far my favorite despite it being so simple.
I also liked lingo ~~quest~~ (edit: it's called lingo legend) for a short while
Still looking for something comprehensive, not enough attention is paid to actually teaching sentence structure, which is essential for languages like german, which is what I'm learning. I think lingodeer (?) tried to do this and it was good but the app wasn't as polished as I would have liked it.
Currently not practicing, need to get back into it. Might just read a textbook, I picked up Hammer's German Grammar and Usage a while back. I believe less and less in learning by app. Just take a class. All of my real progress has been through in-person classes, the apps are just maintenance.
