Duolingo
Duolingo is a gamified language learning app, which works using the spaced repetition technique. In order to keep the learner engaged, Duolingo has leaderboards, daily objectives and rewards like badges, items, its own currency and experience points. As September 24th, 2024, Duolingo added a new lesson type called "Adventures", in which you can control one of Duolingo's mascots, while answering questions to make the scene play out. As of April 2025, Duolingo has added a Chess course for iOS.

Player estimates
Nobody publishes how many people play Duolingo, so these figures are modelled from the public counts on Google Play, App Store, Reddit, YouTube. Each count stands in a roughly known ratio to a population — one Play rating per ~45 players, one Steam review per ~35 owners — and the estimates below combine those readings, weighted by how much each source can be trusted to speak for the whole game. Read the range as the answer and the headline as its middle.

No source reports a live count for this game, so this is a share of the total player base — a genre assumption rather than an observation, which is why the range is wide.

Not tracked for Duolingo: Steam, Discord, Twitch. A platform appears here once the game has a link to it — most mobile games have no Steam port or subreddit, so a gap is normal rather than a sign the game is small.

Frequently asked questions
How many people play Duolingo?
We estimate that about 200,000,000 people have played Duolingo — plausibly between 41M and 460M. Around 10,000,000 of them play on a given day, in a range of 410K and 69M. Both figures are modelled from public counts on Google Play, App Store, Reddit and YouTube rather than published by the developer, so read them as a scale rather than as a headcount.
Is Duolingo still active?
Yes. Duolingo is holding steady — it measured within a percent of where it was a week ago. We recheck every source daily, and the charts on this page show each platform's readings over time.
How are the Duolingo player estimates worked out?
Nobody publishes player counts for mobile games, so we infer them. Each public count we can read is converted into a population using a documented ratio — roughly one Google Play rating per 45 people who played, one Steam review per 35 owners, one Discord member per 40 players — and the live counts (Steam concurrents, members online, Twitch viewers) are converted the same way into a daily figure. Those separate estimates are then averaged in proportion to how much each source can be trusted, which is why sources that disagree widen the published range instead of cancelling out. This page is built on 2 readings taken since August 8, 2026.
