I’m on android and I’m wondering if there’s any way to skip the ads without getting premium? I don’t need the premium features necessarily but I hate the ads interrupting my practice. Anyone have any reliable leads? Thank you.

    You can create a Duolingo class which you can then join yourself. This gets you unlimited hearts and no further ads on the mobile version (at least from my experience). Creating a class has no prerequisites so just try it out. If you still want to be able to view the public leaderboard there’s a setting for that in the classroom settings, but it’s disabled by default.

    Edit: I’m not sure if there are any other ads besides the premium and family ones, I’m running PiHole so your mileage may vary. I’m only talking about those 2 which PiHole cannot block.

      Oh, this is an actual option? I thought the other commenter was joking.

        yeah, I can confirm it works. I set it up around 2 years ago and I still don’t have ads and have unlimited hearts
