It looks cool, here's some feedback on the homepage:

- it's really complex. It reads like a tech product instead of an accessible app.

- i wish i could demo it with other languages on the homepage. Greek is, well, greek. I understand some Spanish and French so if i could use those as examples I could immediately "get" the effectiveness of the app by basing it on the knowledge I already have. I would recommend showcasing the most popular language.

- should show the supported languages as icons with text above the fold.

I'm always excited to learn about new language apps as duolingo is a bit basic!

All great feedback! Thanks. Two questions if I may:

1. Where did the complexity start on the page for you? From the top it did it lose you somewhere?

2. Did you watch the video, and was that included in the complexity comment?

Can’t say I’m able to quickly get to any of your feedback but I’ll take it to heart and apply it over the coming weeks/months :)
