Language courses on iOS are free at the moment, they're normally $15.99. I got the German one. Don't know how long they'll be free for, it doesn't mention it anywhere in the app description.

EDIT: when i first downloaded mine it had all the content in it. Now only one lesson is free and you've gotta pay for more. Not as good a deal or bargain as I initially thought, it is essentially expired. Thanks for the feedback everyone.

Other languages available:

Chinese
Japanese
Italian
Russian
Indonesian
Portugese
Dutch

The Spanish, English and French ones are still $15.99. They must like those languages extra special.

Happy Australia day everyone.

    nice find, too bad the Spanish and French ones are still full price :(

  • KiLeAk on 25/01/2012 - 22:29

    Can't complain! Grabbed all the free iphone & ipad apps. Might as well learn some languages! Cheers.

    Reviews aren't good for these ,apparently only one lesson is free then you have to pay for more.

      I downloaded Hello-Hello Indonesia. The free lesson was an audio recording of two people speaking in bahasa Indonesia. There are much better ways of learning a language than by listening to conversations. I prefer the Pimsleur courses (available at Audible.com)

      • Crownanchor on 26/01/2012 - 07:49

        Pimsleur is learning conversations and enough to get you by. Although it is impressive, cant call pimsleurs program learning a language.

        If you want to learn a language Michel Thomas is the best method of language i have seen out there. Even years on after listening to Michel Thomas, my recal of the language is still intact.

    Yeah the ones you pay for include the lessons of course 1 … These free ones only have the part of the course and then it's the same old price to get the rest… Not really a deal, just a change in sales tactic.

  • kusama on 25/01/2012 - 22:55

    Only 1 lesson is free :/ then you have to pay for the 29 extra ones, not sure if it's worth it but they are 75% in the Jap app ($14.99)

    EDIT:
    I think they probably have just changed to in app purchases instead of whole app.

  • zzyss on 25/01/2012 - 22:57

    Yep, no deal. Seems they've rejigged these to take advantage of in-app purchases so they can charge for individual lessons instead of offering them all in one go. The free apps are NOT the same as the $15.99 versions.

    • Lenneth on 26/01/2012 - 00:06

      I wish apple would crack down on this. Free should mean really free and full like before.

    I see what you guys mean. Really just changing to in app purchases. I'll add this to the description. Thanks guys.

  • Aceboy884 on 25/01/2012 - 23:27

    Does hurt to learn the basics, even if its only one lessons worth

    Going to Japan in march, will come in handy!

    • WatchNerd on 26/01/2012 - 00:00

      Where abouts does it hurt?

  • Wish on 25/01/2012 - 23:34

    Only one lesson is free

    Rubbish advertising app. I can't believe it got so many +.

    I downloaded the German, Italian, Portuguese and Japanese apps from my iPhone (just searched for hello-hello in the app store). Both the German & Italian apps come with 30 FREE lessons. The other 2 just came with 1 free lesson with the option to buy more lessons. Did everyone else get the same?

    • braddsey on 26/01/2012 - 10:18

      I downloaded German. 1 free lesson only. Perhaps you've downloaded this before?

      I now tried to download Italian, but comes up with "Item is currently being modified. I guess you got lucky and downloaded it while they were actually free!

  • TEER3X on 26/01/2012 - 08:19

    This ain't nothing but a trial

    How is this a deal? It still costs the same price, it's just charged differently. 36 +'s?? Shows what sheep people are!

  • greenpixie on 26/01/2012 - 10:07

    not a deal, you need to buy all the lessons.

  • johncumberland on 27/01/2012 - 00:06

    Not Happy!
