Good and fun, but...
...wouldn’t allow me to pick a location at the end of the quiz. Filled in all the other fields but the ‘Next’ button was greyed out on the map and no way to move on. Disappointing. Please fix.
A suggestion
The app has not gotten my accent right, although I wasn’t much surprised by that. I did the quiz on the basis to see what accent I have adapted most from the people around me. To provide input I wanted to fill in your quiz, but I did not enable my location, thus trying to pinpoint the city I live in rather than the exact address, but I was not able to do that. While the map allowed to chose a place it would not allow me to click next... kind of disappointing that I couldn’t help with the data, due to...? Not wanting to provide personal information? Maybe an area where improvement should be considered.

Great but...
Great app, very interesting. My only qualm is that when I try to select location for “my accent”, it just won’t recognise the location or allow me to click “next”. It just stays grayed out. The locations given aren’t that far from where I actually am, but obviously it would be good to give a specific location. I note quite a few people have encountered this exact issue. Needs fixing before I can give it a five star rating I’m afraid.

Good idea but app needs some work
It didn’t guess my accent but it was close. I opted to provide details for research and selected where I was from ‘Wrexham’ but it said location unknown and wouldn’t let me press next so I was unable to provide feedback.
Could not correct location
Loved this. It guessed well but about 50 miles out. I could not submit a corrected location as the selection on the map does not work. It does not recognise my internet connection (which I established when trying to record my own voice in the app...it showed an error message telling me I had no internet connection. Which I do, otherwise how did I download the app or submit this review?)

Not all London natives speak like characters from Eastenders
The app clearly does not work for some people who were educated in the public school system, or those who make an effort to speak a ‘standard’ form of English. It misidentified my location/accent by a minimum of 56 miles, despite me being a white Englishman born in north London and having lived here my entire life.
I am unable to submit feedback in the app because it says “Your location: Unknown” despite me being in London.

Confusing
No difference between some prononciations also sometimes I say things in two different ways. Wouldn’t let me select a location for my accent. After quiz said I was from Lyme Regis! I live nowhere near Lyme Regis and have heard that accent and it’s not mine! It’s probably fun but very inaccurate and I still don’t know my accent.

Broken app
The app is really broken. When I try to record my accent and pin point my location it just says “location unknown”. I don’t hate the app, just wished it worked
Good until the end, where the function to add your location on the map didn’t work
Got me reasonably accurately, but it can’t learn while the error is present
Not sure
Mine was miles off. Places I’d never even heard of up north 😂.
Second time I tried it with location turned on and it suggests three places local to me. However seeing as I live about 80 miles away from where I grew up. I’m not convinced this app is very accurate
