How Do I Save My Duolingo Results? Easy Ways to Save & Download Progress

If you have spent weeks or months building your Duolingo progress, saving your results is a smart way to keep a record of your achievements. Your progress can include completed lessons, XP, streaks, achievements, and other account information.

If you mean your Duolingo English Test (DET) results, the process is slightly different. Your certified test result is available through your DET dashboard, where you can view, download, and share your score.

The good news is that Duolingo stores account progress automatically when you are signed in. Creating a profile also allows you to access your progress from other devices.

How to Save Your Regular Duolingo Progress

For normal Duolingo learning activity, the most important step is to use a properly registered account rather than relying only on local app data.

Follow these steps:

1. Open the Duolingo app or website.
2. Select Sign Up if you do not already have an account.
3. Enter the requested account information.
4. Verify your email if prompted.
5. Sign in whenever you use Duolingo on another device.

Once your profile is connected to your account, your learning progress can be accessed across devices. Duolingo has also explained that creating a profile allows learners to save their progress and access their account elsewhere.

Tip: If you are changing phones or reinstalling the app, make sure you can successfully log in to your account before removing the old installation.

How to Save a Record of Your Duolingo Progress

Although your account stores your progress, you may also want a personal copy of important milestones.

There are 3 practical ways to keep a visible record:

• Take a screenshot of important achievements, XP milestones, or streak information.
• Share an achievement through the available sharing options.
• Keep important account or result information in a secure personal location.

For screenshots, the exact button combination depends on your device. iOS and Android use different screenshot methods, so use your phone’s normal screenshot function.

This is particularly useful if you want a simple visual record of a milestone rather than relying entirely on your account.

Can I Export My Duolingo Data?

The competitor material describes a Data Package/Export Data option for requesting account information.

The suggested process is:

1. Log in to your Duolingo account.
2. Open Settings or your account area.
3. Look for Data Package or Export Data.
4. Request your data package.
5. Wait for the data to be prepared.

The reported preparation time is a few days.

According to the competitor material, the package may contain 3 main categories of information:

• Learning history
• Test results
• Account information

If you are specifically trying to preserve your entire learning history, data export is more useful than taking individual screenshots.

How Do I Save My Duolingo English Test Results?

If by “Duolingo results” you mean your Duolingo English Test, you should use your DET account rather than the regular Duolingo learning app.

The reported result process is straightforward:

1. Log in to your DET account.
2. Open your dashboard.
3. Find your completed test.
4. Wait until the test is certified.
5. Open the score report.
6. Download or save the result.

Certified results are typically available within 48 hours. Duolingo’s own information also states that certified results are typically available within two days.

Your dashboard can therefore be the main place to check whether your result is ready.

What Do the DET Result Statuses Mean?

The competitor research identifies 3 main test-status categories that can appear in the dashboard:

• Processing — your test is still being processed.
• Certified — your result is available.
• Not certified — the test did not receive certification.

Once your result is certified, you can view your score report.

How Do I Download My DET Score Report?

After your result becomes available, the competitor material describes a 6-step download process:

1. Log in to your DET account.
2. Go to the results/dashboard area.
3. Select the relevant test attempt.
4. Choose Download Score Report.
5. Select the PDF format.
6. Save or print the file.

Keeping the PDF is useful if you need your result for a university or scholarship application.

The DET score is reported on a 10–160 scale. Current official DET information also confirms the 10–160 scoring scale.

What Is Included in a Duolingo Test Result?

A DET score report contains more than one number.

The competitor material identifies:

• Overall score
• Subscores
• Test date
• Validity information
• Verification information

The DET currently reports individual subscores for Speaking, Writing, Reading, and Listening, along with integrated subscores such as Literacy, Comprehension, Conversation, and Production.

This means you should save the complete score report rather than recording only your overall score.

How Long Do Duolingo Test Results Take?

The most useful number from the competitor research is 48 hours.

Results are typically available within 48 hours after completing the test, although the exact timing can depend on certification. Duolingo also says certified results are typically available within two days.

If your result is still processing, check your dashboard before assuming that something has gone wrong.

You should also check the email associated with your account because the competitor research says an email notification is sent when results become available.

How Do I Share My Duolingo Test Results?

You do not necessarily need to download the PDF before sending a certified DET result to an institution.

The competitor material describes a dashboard-based sharing process:

1. Open your DET dashboard.
2. Find your completed test.
3. Select Share Score.
4. Choose the institution you want to send the result to.

The competitor research says certified results can be sent to institutions at no extra cost.

Duolingo’s own material also states that certified scores can be sent to unlimited institutions for free.

Can I Save My Duolingo Certificate?

If your result includes a certificate, the competitor research describes a simple process:

1. Open your profile or results area.
2. Find the certificate.
3. Select Certificate.
4. Download the file.
5. Save or print it.

For a physical copy, open the downloaded file and use your device’s normal Print option.

Keeping both the digital file and a printed copy can make it easier to access your result when you need it.

What If I Cannot Find My Duolingo Results?

If your results or progress seem to have disappeared, there are 3 major situations to check:

1. App update or reinstall

Make sure you are signed into the same account after reinstalling or updating the app.

2. Device change

If you moved to a new phone or computer, check that you are using the same account credentials.

3. Login or account problem

Check your email address and password carefully. If you use multiple email addresses, make sure you are accessing the account associated with your Duolingo activity or test.

For DET results, also check the dashboard and the email connected to your test account.

What Should I Do If My Results Are Missing?

Before contacting support, work through these 3 troubleshooting steps:

1. Update the app or browser and sign in again.
2. Check synchronization and your account to make sure you are using the correct login.
3. Contact Duolingo support if the result or progress still cannot be found.

Avoid creating a new account simply because your progress is missing. First confirm that you are signed into the original account.

What Is the Best Way to Protect My Duolingo Results?

For the safest approach, keep more than one record of information that matters to you.

Your regular learning progress can remain connected to your Duolingo account, while important milestones can be saved with screenshots. For a DET result, keep the PDF score report after downloading it and retain access to the account used to take the test.

A simple backup routine is:

Account → Screenshot important milestones → Export data when needed → Download important certificates/results

This gives you both online access and a personal copy.
