[NFBCS] Duolingo

[Louis Maher]

Hello Tracy,

I am doing the exercises, in windows, on the Duolingo web site
"https://www.duolingo.com/".

I have not found any developer contact information on this site.  

I have not found any references to the developers on the AppleVis site.  I am still learning the AppleVis site.

Judging by the one language app I won, and comments on Applevis, language apps often fail to label things adequately for VoiceOver, among other accessibility problems.  If you find one that works, I'd sure like to know about it.

On Applevis, I often see a link to the developer's website.  Is that the same website you go to to try to do the work described?  If it's something different, maybe it has a contact link?  
I get the impression a lot of app developers are not interested in hearing from their customers.  Maybe the only way to get through is by the Apple rating, where you can leave comments?

Hello,

I am trying to use the Duolingo
"https://eur02.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.duolingo.com%2F&data=02%7C01%7C%7C877b998f26d042a169f808d718e23c08%7C84df9e7fe9f640afb435aaaaaaaaaaaa%7C1%7C0%7C637005232255318461&sdata=XLOOa%2FkgdmPkmW1Pe8xdljrgi82lejCC7dhedbgMNKY%3D&reserved=0"
web site and iOS application to learn Spanish.  While I can answer the questions on the web site, using Firefox and Windows 10, with difficulty, it can be done.

I am unable to answer the questions using the Duolingo iOS application.  For example, if you must translate the phrase "el hombre" into English, the answer is "the man".  In the application, you are given several words that are buttons.  You must hit the "the" button and the "man" button.  The application does not recognize these two button pushes.

I have not found a way to contact the developers from the web site nor from the application.

I have not found a clear way to ask the question on the AppleVis

web site.

I would appreciate any help people can give on either the iOS or website Duolingo applications.
