"Missions", aside from the main lessons? None that I have found. Now, it has both an streak system and an exp system.

About a "gamifying aspect", if you mean the leaderboards, I personally try to ignore them altogether, and they are a bother only when they start getting in my way, one of the problems I have e.g. with Duolinguo.
And about lack of comments, haven't seen any on Airlearn's side, so in this aspect, I'd think they're in a similar level.
On the few lessons I tested from it, it seemed less aggressive on pushing monetization, as well as having a more friendly flow in other aspects of design. Now, can't remember if Duolinguo does, but Airlearn has an option during explanations to report wrong stuff, though I wish it allowed explaining why a given thing is wrong.
Airlearn, com.unacademy.antonio on Google Play.
¡Qué fantástico! 👏
Was testing some Duolinguo-inspired program, and starting from a language I already had sone familiarity, turns out I'm decent enough in Japanese to notice grammar blunders in the lessons! =D
Remember when you could play to customize characters? Pepperidge Farm remembers.
And regarding taking less time to progress, borrowing from South Park's "freemium" explanation, maybe making the gameplay loop a bit more than just barely fun would avoid the player's need for the game to hurry up? And if it involves gambling, it's a whole other can of worms.
Sounds like gaslighting to investors that start hearing about the subject.

Imo, the Monogatari light novels (where the Bakemonogatari series come from) and Lord of the Rings both are pretty interesting, but they can be insufferably verbose.
Copypasta of my comment in the post in the F-Droid community:
Chrono is extremely good for me, given often having to have alarms in the oddest of times, and it allowing me to schedule alarms as one-time only, daily, for specific weekdays, for specific dates, or for date ranges, as well as having the options to force to work in the background if lack of memory in the phone kills it.
As for alternatives I wish I could find, Librera Reader is still the best ebook reader I found outside of Google Play, but I could use it having better controls. Might even take the dust off my PS Vita to read ebooks, as I abhor touch controls due to them usually not being optimized for either precision or view space available (even on-screen controls might help), and on the Vita I can use the physical controls to move the ebooks' pages around.

Hmm. One small update, was doing it slowly so maybe why I hadn't seen it yet, but it seems the user can do only 5 lessons every 24 hours as a free user. If you're quick on doing lessons and don't intend on paying, it might prove problematic.
