I've never felt "all-in-one" or generic learning tools are really of any good beyond learning the basics.

For instance for me learning Japanese I use probably up to 5-10 apps regularly to learn the entire scope of what japanese requires.

I am currently using duo, anki, some textbooks and on-site courses with small groups (<10).

What apps are you using, for eg. grammar?

My entire list of apps i use on Android is:

Lingodeer + lingodeer plus (paid version it got a 1 time payment with 50% discount)

- This is my duo replacement it works great for grammar since you get a more detailed explanation of grammar rules.

Kanji study + kanji tree

- These are far from perfect but works for recognition learning.

Tae Kim's learn Japanese app

- Nothing fancy but its better for mobile.

Lastly I would've recommended Eler, but its turn itself into a micro transaction app.

Essentially it was an apology to get help with reading japanese news.
