User reviews

Interesting language app

I definitely like this app .. but I wish they could have an option to repeat the words that we are trying to learn/ say during the phone lesson . Other than that it’s better than most apps I’ve tried

Response from developer

Thank you, this made our day! 🙏 And you're right, there's no way to hear the phrase again right now. We're adding a replay button so you can tap and listen as many times as you want before you speak. Coming in the next update. Thanks for telling us exactly what was bugging you!
