### 2/5 — Half broken

*2025-12-12, version 1.8*

Audio doesn’t play, 9 dot menu just crashes the app, no way to remove ads. It looks like the app’s been abandoned, which is a shame when it could be so good to learn the language

### 1/5 — Didn’t work at all

*2025-04-01, version 1.8*

I downloaded this and it didn’t work. Sound wouldn’t play. No settings. No instructions. Just written lists of words  that can be starred, I guess when you think you know them?

### 4/5 — Needs updates

*2025-01-05, version 1.8*

### 2/5 — Good but no sound

*2024-05-03*

I like being able to learn the words but I cannot get the sound to work so that I can pronounce things properly.

### 4/5 — Sound

*2024-02-16, version 1.8*

The sound doesn’t play it’s temperamental open the app 1 day works very well next time the sound just doesn’t come on and all I see is words  

Overall good app but the sound has prevented me from hearing the proper pronunciation

### 2/5 — app takes so long to load despite normal LTE conditions

*2023-07-21, version 1.8*

forget about having it handy on the ABC islands, under normal internet surfing conditions this app takes forever to load even the basic phrases. it's plain text. it shouldn't take so long to load.

### 2/5 — Contents Stop Loading

*2023-02-08, version 1.8*

It began as a great app, as I’m currently wanting to learn the language since my visit to Aruba and upcoming visit to Curaçao. However, the content is not loading anymore.

### 3/5 — It was great

*2022-08-18, version 1.8*

Until this app developers hasn’t updated the privacy settings.
