Amazing app!

I downloaded it about two weeks ago and it’s helped me learn hanguel a lot better! I already knew a small amount because I’ve been using duo but still almost a beginner. It has a test mode which I use often but you can also go through the slides of all the letters with the pronunciation, and what English letter it sounds like, and it even gives you examples of words with this letter. My average is 6/10 letters correct but the other day I got to 8/10 and I’m so happy to be seeing improvement. I have nothing bad to say about this app. It does only teach the Korean alphabet so not the most helpful for learning the language but it’s definitely great just for learning the alphabet.

Great for Beginners

This app is good for beginners just starting to learn Hangul however, it’s missing consonant vowel combinations for complex vowels (diphthongs), which is kind of a big omission, and the paid version only comes with a couple of examples for each Hangeul letter or letter combination. Because Korean has so many sound changes it would be better to provide more examples so an intermediate learner could create complex syllables and explore how Korean sound change rules apply at the level of both syllables and words.

Used to be a good app but not anymore

I used the app a few years ago to practing my korean sentence structure and all of that. I deleted it once I felt confident. Needless to say I was very disappointed when I downloaded it again only to realize that nothing works. You can't open any of the practice lessons. It's a major glitch that is horribly affecting a really good app. Don't waste your time downloading it.
