How we judged the options
- Language specificity: does it teach Bosnian directly rather than silently substituting a neighbouring language?
- Progression: can a beginner see what comes next and why?
- Explanations: does it explain endings, word order and usage when they appear?
- Audio provenance: does the provider clearly describe whether recordings are human, generated or video?
- Production: must the learner recall and build a sentence, rather than only recognise one?
- Review and access: can learners return to weak material across the devices they actually use?

Our recommendation
Start with one structured course as the spine. Use a phrase/audio app when you need extra listening breadth, and add a tutor or exchange partner once you can produce a few complete sentences. Running four beginner apps in parallel often creates repetition without progression.
Gora currently offers a seven-day full-access trial with no card required, followed by €9.99 monthly or €69.99 annually. It is available on the web, iPhone, iPad and Android. Search “Gora Academy” in either app store.
