My kids young kids live this! Duo app is way too hard for thier age my 5 year old can’t read but is flying through Rua’s listen and repeat. It’s also not Ai robot voices it’s real voice recordings and we can select Donegal dialect. Very happy
Audio doesn’t understand a lot of words
I wanted to like this app. But it doesn’t do a good job of picking up my voice. Every lesson turned into me constantly repeating myself at least 5 times before it would ‘understand’ me. It eventually felt like I was being used to train a voice recognition AI, so I canceled the trial.
(Worth noting: I’ve been studying with teachers who corrected my accent for the last year. I’m not advanced; but nothing in the first unit is so difficult to pronounce that the app couldn’t understand me!)

Great app,
This app allows you to select your local dialect and focus on Irish relevant to your area. While I’ve spent some time now learning from reading, the app does a great job on looking at the pronunciation of words and even has the phonetic break down of words. Great app for learning.
Best Irish App Ever
I absolutely love this language app! By far the best I’ve used!
Good, could be great
I really like this app! It’s unlike any other language app for learning or brushing up on your Gaeilge. That being said, I really wish it picked up what you’re saying when you’re saying it, and not after you repeat it/shout it multiple times. It also picks up some words in a sentence but not others. I can also say a word perfectly, and it’ll tell me my pronunciation was fair. Solid 3 stars, on its way to 5 with some tweaks here and there!

Best Irish Language Learning App
There isn’t really any other app that focuses as clearly on this one on spoken Irish. Fantastic for beginners people with cúpla focail. Able to switch easily between dialect is a key feature. It’s also beautifully made. Excited to see how it develops!
Takes you to the next level!
I can’t find anyone to speak Irish with me where I live. This app has made me feel capable of speaking Irish rather than just learning vocabulary.
Amazing
I have tried note cards and repetitive statements with little to no progress in learning Irish. With this app, it is the first time I feel like I’m actually learning.
Great
I’m really enjoying the app and finding it genuinely effective in helping me learn. It’s working well for me, although there are the occasional glitches.
One small suggestion would be the option to turn off the game-style features, badges and cartoon celebrations. I appreciate these are designed to appeal to all ages, but sometimes having to click through all the “whoo-hoos!” just to repeat a lesson can become a little frustrating!
Overall, a great learning experience

Genius. Fun. Enjoyable.
Highly recommend this app for anyone wanting to learn the oldest - and arguably coolest – vernacular in Europe. Some might even say the world.
A wonderful, fun, and engaging app giving you a fun way to learn. At times the voice recording/feedback can glitch, but seems to autocorrect well. Worth every penny and more.

Lovely App!
I am loving this app so far.
Delightful!
This app has been absolutely lovely to use! I super appreciate that they give you the choice of what dialect you’d like to work with. It’s fun and cute and delightful, well worth the subscription.
Something I would love to see is expanding its capacity for audio-only learning; As it is right now, as you go through the lessons, when you speak your responses, it will automatically move on to the next slide, which is perfect! But you’ll still need to tap through to the next lesson when you have finished your current one.
It would be lovely for there to be a verbal way to move on to the next lesson for totally hands-free learning. This would be very helpful for long commutes, using the program while doing other tasks, etc.
In any case, absolutely love it! I am excited to continue!

Gaelic language app
Great app, very easy to use. Daily quick lessons
Excellent
This app is great and has all the tools to help you learn Irish.
Wish there was one free lesson a day
It’s a great app but I was only able to do the first lesson before being prompted to start a free trial, and then have to pay to continue. I wish there was a free lesson a day or a similar setup as Duolingo where I could watch ads and do lessons.
Big improvement over the ulchabhán app
I’ve been learning Irish on DuoLingo for years and found it great for expanding my vocabulary and grammar but extremely lacking in terms of practicing pronunciation and everyday phrases. So grateful that this app exists - I’ll definitely be much more confident in trying to converse with people when I’m in Ireland!

Cait
No transparency re prices, I downloaded the app and then got a notification that my subscription will start in a week, no idea as to how much. I had to google to see how much it will cost AND you can’t cancel subscription in the app (crazy) so I will be on the hook for at least the first week, even though I don’t feel like I consented to that. No support link or it doesn’t work. Please cancel for me.

Learning Irish language
Though I have only started the app uses learning techniques that are intuitive and repeat as to learn in repetition. I’m liking the app so far.
Learning a language can actually be fun!
Learning actually useful phrases. All the bonus features are great as well. Would recommend.
