Interesting; I experienced similar frustrations with various German-teaching apps, but I actually want something even lower friction: I’d like someone else to have selected (e.g.) the 200 most important nouns, the 75 most important verbs, and the 100 most important ‘conversational glue’ words - and sell me that set, ready to go in a flashcard app.
