Not the best

### 4/5 — Words listing kept in records

*2026-07-01, version 1.6.0*

I wish that there was a way that each word would be breaking into small pieces of actually how it’s sounding to sound it out the word even better.

### 3/5 — Pronounce

I like the app but to many pop ups as your trying to enter the word and sometimes you have to put the word in several times as well.

I love this app. It helps w/ pronunciation but I can’t stand the ads that interfere with the app. That’s the downside.

### 5/5 — Perfect for teaching

### 5/5 — Necessary

### 5/5 — 👍🏽

Really enjoying the pronunciation app

### 5/5 — One Word

very veryy helpful

### 5/5 — With the addition of import export favourites this app would be amazing

*2025-10-29, version 1.6.0*

My 7 year old child goes to French school. Speaking very little French I am struggling to help you read. Her teachers regularly send her home with flash cards to practice sounds. Great idea but I don’t know how the sounds are meant to be said. This app helped immensely.  It would be even better if the teachers could supply an import file to all the kids.

Not the best

### 1/5 — Changes

*2026-02-01, version 1.6.0*

I don’t like the fact that the sentence goes back to the start when highlighted read to copy( can’t do it) also when you copy the sentence moves to the start and you can copy properly

### 1/5 — Used to be really good

*2025-07-31*

Lately the American English pronunciation is all wrong! It looks like a Brazilian Portuguese reading the word! BTW the American English and the Portuguese Brazilian voices are the same!

### 1/5 — Crash

*2025-06-21*

App crashed after paying for it. Have to restart the app for every word.

### 1/5 — Only one voice option

*2025-06-05, version 1.6.0*

There is only one voice option and the person has broken English….Lol

### 1/5 — Obnoxious ads

*2024-12-09, version 1.6.0*

Obnoxious ads pop up when all you want is a pronunciation and they are very difficult to get rid of

### 1/5 — ?

*2024-11-05, version 1.6.0*

I typed in " Foie gras" - the reply was - and i'm not joking around here - " Foy grass".....enough said

### 1/5 — Mispronounced 1st word

*2024-11-03, version 1.6.0*

I typed in my name. It’s French and 900 years old. Completely botched it. I wonder how many other people are being affected by this inaccurate app 🤔

So I tried “tchoupitoulas” it was pronounced as chop-a-gal-is. It’s actually pronounced chop-a-tool-is 🙄

### 1/5 — Ministry Teacher

*2024-07-31, version 1.6.0*

I am so thankful to have access to this app of pronunciation of biblical words especially when you reading biblical names of the Bible whether you are speaking or teaching. I am so thankful for this app. I rate it a Star 5

### 1/5 — Too many ads

*2024-01-22, version 1.6.0*

Do not download this app unless you want to be bombarded with a ton of ads before you can even type a word. You’ve been warned.
