Memrise Reviews in June 2026: User Ratings, Pros & Cons

Best vocabulary presentation in my humble opinion

Tldr ; amazing for vocabulary App needs improvement Arabic course is not ideal Rhsetta stone has a much better Arabic course but learning deutsch i prefer combining them both Thanks Some other thoughts : I love it, very good looking interface very engaging.. Forget the memos or whatever the sheer amount of words they present with a male and female uttering the word and short videos { about 1-5 seconds } is very nice.. Some of the minor problems is that the mobile app locks me after ...

Just use anki

Inferior to anki in every way

Very good platform to learn new language with minor flaws.

This is a good platform for practicing a new foreign language but some features are quite annoying. Learning a long sentence and repeating it in practice is pointless. I would rather learn new single words than long sentences. I like in memrise learning with video recorded natives. It is very motivating. The point system is broken. When you reach level 15 or 16 there is no point to gain a new point because spaces between levels are too big.

Could be amazing

Could be amazing, but is rubbish. Non existent customer service, limited range of languages (and getting smaller), some of own courses are unusable. Eg see screenshot of Arabic. Laughable.

Charged 12 months after uninstalling

12 months after uninstalling the app, you get charged for another 12 months. Autorenewal is the policy, but no emails or notifications to warn at all. Really poor.

Great app for learning languages

Great app for language memorization and spelling improvement. I don't think it would be enough to make you learn a language but it certainly helps. Has also trivias of other topics like art and history which is fun to learn.

This site is a complete fraud. User agreement violation. And charging with reason.

This site is a fraud. Once you paid for the premium account they will charge you for that forever. They violate the user agreement. There is no way on the site to stop paying. Even if you terminate the premium account (and you have to do it a way before the next payment date) they will try charge your card.

"Motivating for learners. "

What do you like best about Memrise? Language learners can work at their own pace. Young students find being online motivating. Really good for memorizing and providing differentiation for different skill levels.

"great for competitive people"

What do you like best about Memrise? You are able to learn new words and refresh your memory that challenges you. If you use the web based version you can also be tested on the clock for extra determination.

"Memrise for training college students in language"

What do you like best about Memrise? I recommend memrise to my students to develop language skills prior to taking them on service learning trips in foreign countries. I like that it uses multiple learning modalities (visual, auditory) to teach the languages offered.
