User reviews

Useless

I scanned the ISBN, and it prompted me to download a new version. I clicked the link and downloaded the 2017 version, but when I entered the ISBN, it still didn't work. Now I’m stuck switching back and forth between the 2017 and 2024 apps, feeling like a ball being kicked around.

Simple audio companion. Does its job

Downloaded app as a companion to the Russian language dictionary. Russian audio sounds good. The dictionary works while offline, which is useful.

It’s actually pretty good

That’s kinda it. I got this book at my local library and I decided to try out the audio app and it worked great. Something’s I want to say is why do you have to download the audio files yourself and it’s kinda hard to find the word your looking for but other than that I’d say it’s good at least for the Russian copy.

French English

App doesn’t work, so you can’t hear the pronunciation, just written words and images.
