Am besten kennt man die griechischen Buchstaben und Aussprache, sonst ist man schnell mit der Aussprache allein überfordert. Die langsame Aussprache ist bei kurzen Sätzen bzw. einzelnen Wörter gut, bei langen hört sich es an ob der Sprecher Wörter verschluckt. Das gute ist, dass man sich die Phrasen beliebig oft vorspielen kann und ist in Kategorien wie z. B. Begrüßung unterteilt. Eine brauchbare App mit Luft nach oben. ### 4/5 — Very good *2018-07-06* All set for our holiday ### 4/5 — So far so good *2017-10-05* Ok ### 4/5 — Cool *2017-08-03* Cool ### 4/5 — Cool *2017-06-29* Good if you want to learn basic phrases and sentences ### 4/5 — Good phrases *2017-05-18* Simple and easy ### 4/5 — Helpful *2017-02-22* Very helpful as my homework is the Greeks ### 4/5 — Review *2016-10-25* Good app ### 4/5 — Ready for holiday *2016-09-29* Just downloaded ready for holiday. Looks ok, would have liked to see writing, so Icould read it ### 4/5 — Clever translation tool *2016-09-04* Nice translation application, hopefully it'll get easier with practice. ### 3/5 — Cool *2016-08-11* Pretty good for the basics ### 4/5 — Useful app *2016-08-10* Very helpful app with useful basic phrases ### 4/5 — Great little Greek language guide *2016-06-10* Has words and phrases most commonly used when traveling to or while in Greece. Very helpful. ### 3/5 — Good basics *2016-05-11, version 7.7* This app does not give written phonetics so unless you already have a basic knowledge in Greek you may find this app less than helpful. The phrases are not what the average tourist would use either. However simple one or two word replies are easy to learn,longer sentences are not. ### 5/5 — Πολυ καλό *2016-05-03, version 7.7* Poli kalo , exairetiko ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Useless *2018-04-28* No phonetic spellings of Greek words (for English speakers). Audio clips are silent. As a Phrasebook this is useless. ### 1/5 — Okay *2016-04-18, version 7.7* Quite good ### 1/5 — Greek rocks *2014-12-09* Yayyy **Developer response:** Thanks. Do you have any suggestion for us? If so, contact us: gipsysoft.it/contact. We will be glad to hear from you. ### 2/5 — Warning *2020-01-14* Audio playback of phrases does not work. ### 2/5 — Pro doesn't remove ads *2016-06-28* Pro (£0.79) says removed adverts but they still pop up. Recording quality isn't great and would be helpful to have written phonetically in English also. **Developer response:** This issue is because the latest iOS software is bugged, we are not able to read the purchase flag correctly. Why you did not contact us before leaving a bad review? The solution is simple: restart your device and reopen the app, and the ads will not pup up anymore. We will improve the quality of the translations an speech with the next release, and we already planned to include phonetics in the next version. ### 2/5 — Doesn't offer much *2014-09-03, version 7.7* Offers very basic phrases, anything else you have to pay for. ### 2/5 — Not good for English->Greek *2014-08-01* Travelers beware! If you don't know how to read Greek, then this app is not for you. It only shows English phrases translated into Greek, alphabet and all. It would have been far more useful if they could add another line below the Greek written in the Latin alphabet. **Developer response:** We have already planned to insert greek phonetic transcriptions in the next version. And an advice like "travellers beware" looks a little excessive to us. ### 2/5 — Spelling with Roman alphabet would help *2014-07-20* The Greek words are written in Greek alphabet which I can not read. Interesting, but too challenging for me. **Developer response:** We have already planned to insert greek phonetic transcriptions in the next version. ### 3/5 — Handy! *2017-09-03* A useful tool for basics on holiday! ### 3/5 — Decent app! *2017-07-19* Good key phrases, simple to use ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — BEST APP EVER *2019-05-17* This is one of the best app I’ve ever used!

Very helpful. ### 5/5 — Hi *2016-11-18* I learned alot ### 5/5 — Great app *2016-08-11* Really handy phrase book - slowed down speech is good for getting pronunciation right. ### 5/5 — Hello ; *2016-05-04* Great Great ; very good.
