Do people actually use 彼?

I’ve spoken Japanese all my life and just recently decided to give Duolingo a try because my Japanese has been a bit rusty lately. It keeps saying 彼 (which I know means “He”) but personally I’ve never said it and in the time I’ve spent in Japan I haven’t really heard anyone else say it. I asked my mother (who grew up in Japan) if people actually still use it, and she said not really. Am I missing something or is Duolingo just pulling up random old words and teaching them?
