Is SoloLearn too basic?

I really like the app, but I feel it limits itself in content. Why not go deeper into the tricky bits of languages? This has an amazing format for accelerated teaching, actually with SoloLearn I can learn the basics of a language in one day, something impossible (at least for me) with books and videos, which take me at least a week. This is amazing! Why not go a little further?

SoloLearn teaches you how to code. It doesn't really offer much for what to do after that. When you are done learning, check out Codecademy.

Because Sololearn is for getting a basic understanding, not becoming a master.

An elementary school isn't made for teaching middle school content. Just like Sololearn is for getting a basic understanding, and that is what it exists for.

@Caleb Jore. That's my point. With SoloLearn's teaching format they shouldn't just teach how to code. The question is... why aren't they going further? Maybe a Lvl 2 in each language.

@Caleb Jore where have they stated that their goal is to teach only the basics? Also, yes, SoloLearn actually teaches the basics, and again, that's my point. Why just the basics? It could go further and be even better than books or video tutorials.
