Is an awesome language-learning app. I first caught word of it in Gizmodo when it was featured as one of the apps of the week for Android devices.

Apparently, it won "App of the Year" in the iPhone App Store.

I stopped learning French after high school but this app makes me want to continue. Seriously. Spent about 2 hours on it so far and will continue.
 
I used it for like a week. It's useful for beginner stuff but what helps me the most is using Skype and other websites and speaking to people directly. There are so many people willing to help you. I haven't done it in a while but I'm pretty sure some people use Skype and hold "classes" even
 
I downloaded it ages ago but never got round to using it mainly because I'm trying to catch up with various TV Shows, Movies and trying to read a book now.
 
I'm going to Bolivia, Peru and Colombia next month and I've been using that as well as a phrase book to learn Latin American Spanish. But like Aron said, I've got basics but you need to be actually speaking it to really learn it.
