Amazing app, one drawback for me.
Love the app but I wish we could type in answers with our keyboard. Perhaps this could be some type of toggle option. I find myself wasting more time than I’d like trying to find the letters when I already know the answer & could complete it way quicker otherwise. Other than this, I’ve loved the app & it’s been a great stepping stone resource to expand my passive vocabulary & understanding the major parts of Icelandic grammar.Show lessmike2602yuh
Fantastic
This app is absolutely fantastic. I’ve had a passive interest in Icelandic for a long time, and have been looking for a straightforward way to learn with high quality audio from native speakers. This app here is the most useful source I’ve found thus far. Information is presented in clear slides, and then summarized in tables. There are tons of exercises after each lesson, with matching, spelling, constructing sentences, etc. I’d definitely recommend this app.Show lessMesopotamian Priestess
Decent
I like using this app but would enjoy it so much more and use it more if the spelling exercises were gone or optional.
I usually end up googling what the Icelandic translation is because a lot of the vocabulary in the prompts to spell out with the letter grid have vocabulary or grammar structures that are unfamiliar or only briefly mentioned before.
Big leap from matching vocabulary to having to spell it out in a 4 or 5 word sentence with only 3 chances to make a mistake.Show lessRcutler2

I already corrected that on the update! What a stupid mistake! Thanks for the tipMistakes and Improvements
Well, right off the bat during the first slide of the first lesson it keeps referencing “Spanish”, even calling the app “Label Spanish”. So, I think there’s some editing that needs done. Also, during the initial alphabet lessons it would be helpful to use words that exemplify the letters that are being taught on the individual slides. I gotta say for the lack of organization and proofreading mistakes, this app isn’t currently worth any money. There’s not even any settings or help section in the app to contact the developer with this issues.Show lessMr.C9250

That is embarrassing! I'm pushing a new update right now to solve that. I'm preparing a Spanish course too and I probably got things mixed up :( As soon as apple approves the update the changes will be there. You can use labelicelandic@gmail.com for any issueHas mistakes, but still good
For $3 this app is a steal. It really does a great job at teaching you the difficult grammatical concepts of Icelandic. However I have come across several mistakes. They are mostly small spelling errors, but still - unacceptable. In lesson 8 for example, the wrong accented vowels are used in the possessive pronouns chart. The fact that I was able to find them despite being a novice learner doesn’t give me the highest confidence in the app’s accuracy. I have also found the vocabulary in each lesson to be completely random and not useful. Why did we learn the verb “to puke” in lesson one? Most of them don’t even come back up in the exercises at the end of the lesson. Use this app to learn grammar, learn vocabulary elsewhere.Show lessJdeyo1992
Amazing
I am only one module in but so far this is amazing. So much detailed information that is digestible and easy to make sense of (from a linguist point of view!). If you want to make things more comprehensible for the public, maybe try adding a definition for words like diphthong (like the user can click on it similar to Duolingo) or replace it with a phrase such as two vowels next to each other?
Anyways good work!Show lesskrisered
Learn Icelandic with this Cool App this summer
The price is right and there are written and spoken lessons in bitesized chips - just keep your notebook handy. There are some slight bugs or annoyances that if they were sorted could give a five star rating.jazzylemon
