Hi, can you help me, I would really like to have Duolingo instead of paying 30€ a month (I tried to use one but video calls with Lily didn't work), can you help me please?

Update: I've updated the post with a method to get unlimited hearts on PC as well! I hope this helps some people! ^^

APP + BROWSER METHOD (MOBILE):

Sorry if this is already known but I've seen a lot of posts where people are asking how to get unlimited hearts working with no luck. If you don't want to do any of this you can just make a class and use the suggested version (5.158.4) but, at least in my opinion, it's best to have the newest version you can when it comes to Duolingo.

This uses the 6.13.5 version of the app (The last version that gave unlimited hearts for students) so more updated than the suggested version on RVM but not the latest version.

Mobile App:
- Download the 6.13.5 APKM from APKMirror (Link)
- Install APKMirror Installer (Official) from the Play Store (Link)
- Install version 6.13.5 using APKMirror Installer
- Create a class on Duolingo (Link) (This is what gives you unlimited hearts as it classifies you as a "student" but only on 6.13.5 and lower)
- Disable auto updates

Mobile Browser Method:
- Download Firefox from the Play Store (Link)
- Get the "Duolingo Max" extension from the Add-on store (Link)
- Go to Duolingo in the browser and just choose to stay in the browser when asked

BROWSER (PC):

- Download the latest release of the "Duolingo Max" browser extension
--- For Firefox get the extension from the Add-on Store (Link)
--- For Chromium browsers get it from the Chrome Web Store (Link)
(If you're worried about the security of the extension you can check the source code / GitHub page for more info (Link))

=== EXTRA NOTES ===

You should now have no ads and unlimited hearts. Still no unlimited streak freezes though sadly. If you do the app method you can uninstall APKMirror Installer once you're done. I hope this helps someone! So far it's worked perfectly for me but if for some reason it doesn't work for you please let me know. I'm sure there is info on this somewhere already but I wasn't able to find it, and wanted to give a place where someone can easily find the process that worked for me.

Thanks to u/Hairy_Tough9026 I've been informed that being on older versions of the app shouldn't limit you on content of lessons as that data is pulled from their servers and will even update on older versions when changes are made, but might be more limited on features like video calls / radio lessons and such. Either way I still suggest getting the most up to date version of the app you can that still guarantees this to work.

=== EDITS ===

Edit 1: I somehow missed that being a student already removes ads, making the patching with ReVanced unnecessary. Having been reminded of this I've updated the instructions to remove the unnecessary steps. You just need to install v6.13.5 and make a class so you're classified as a student. This will give you unlimited hearts and no ads on mobile.

Edit 2: Some users have mentioned that just creating a "parent" account and adding your main account as a student also works, even on the latest version. However for me it just gives me an energy bar which is still limited, and everywhere I've read online says they no longer offer the unlimited hearts for students (after 6.13.5) apparently this is due to A/B testing so this works on some accounts while not on others anymore. If this works for you though that's great! ^^

Edit 3: After someone asked about unlimited hearts for PC I went looking around and found an extension that gives unlimited hearts! It's called "Duolingo Max" (See above for the guide) Also the developer of the extension u/Hairy_Tough9026 left a comment below if you'd like to get some more information on the extension or why creating a parent account works for some and not others on the newest version!

Edit 4: u/Hairy_Tough9026 has updated the FAQ on the GitHub repo of the extension to include instructions on how to get similar results on IOS!

So i downloaded a modded version of Duolingo and after thinking it wouldnt work i decided to log trough gmail and was greeted with a 3 day trial of duolingo max their premium service. Its been a week now and i still have Duolingo Max and it even says thank you for subscribing. How is this possible? I havent entered any payment information..

I found one but it wouldn't let me login. Any links?

??? Can I get banned?
