1 ★ The app is nice, but it's NOT FREE. After a few exercises you must start paying for the premium version. Waste of time.
5 ★ A very useful app for both ESL Instructors and students of English to grasp the usefulness and importance of pronunciation, whilst at the same time being interactive and stimulating. It also worked very well on my Samsung tab. A must get app.
5 ★ I did not find any application like this in Google play market as for as phonetics is concerned. If anybody wants have one download this you will find this very very useful students as well as teachers
2 ★ This is cool if you want to learn phonetic writing. I, for one, expected an app that would record my pronunciation, then play it back to me alongside the correct pronunciation, or at least tell me if it recognizes the word i pronounced. Not yet found what I'm looking for.
4 ★ Pretty good but why can't you put a delete button on the phonetic keyboard? If I know I made a mistake then I can't correct my spelling.
5 ★ This is exactly what I have been looking for. Provides both American and British english sounds and charts, very user friendly.
2 ★ My phone is an LG G4 and the app doesn't fit to my screen. Also I can't see the backspace button in writing section.
3 ★ It's a very useful app, however, very few words, even if it's a free version, there should be way more. Also, an important issue, there should be an erasing option in the keyboard. Other than that, it is very well made.
4 ★ Great for practice...only bug is I can't go back ..no back erase...to delete a phoneme in practice sessions when I know I've made an error
5 ★ Excellent revision aid. Simple interface, good tests and clear audio. You don't need much more than this to learn phonemes!
5 ★ It is learning made simple. Very helpful, I recommend it to every student who desires ease in phonetics or phonology class for speech and language students.
5 ★ Great app that helped me a lot ti practice, good for people who already has some English and/or phonetic knowledge about it.
3 ★ Doesn't display clearly on my LG and I couldn't find any way to correct myself during practice
1 ★ It is a very very bad aap which is not helpful to learn phonetics.. I want that you increase it's quality
2 ★ In the practice section, there is no backspace or clear option which makes practice section useless.
