I'm sure "being selective" is good advice, but I'm afraid I might miss something. There might be some word or usage that I wouldn't get if I didn't study the whole lesson, down to the last sentence of the Expansion and Grammar.

I also am experiencing this on the Android app. I created a support ticket on it this morning (PST, about 12 hours ago); no reply yet.

In the first dialog sentence, it's really hard to hear the 'n' in 按.  It sounds more like āi or ài.

I noticed that, too. Is someone going to correct the English for the benefit of future students?

Expansion sentence:

我们阿姨做饭小时十块钱

Could or should this be translated as "invite an ayi" instead of "invite the ayi"?

The Key Vocabulary section should contain an entry for 牛角面包 (it has only 牛角 by itself).

Sorry, I didn't see your post until just now. Vocab seems about the same as the other tabs.

On the web site, I'm having some trouble with the sound files for the Expansion sentences.   The sound level of this and recent lessons seems quite low (I would say it is too low).  I also had some trouble playing the first Expansion sentence in IE -- jist the first sentence, of several lessons.  The Play button icons actually looks different, with a black line under it.   THis is just IE -- those first sentences play OK in Chrome (although with the same low sound level).
