### 3/5 — Great to study, but doesn’t always work

*2026-08-08, version 4.0.2*

The flash cards at this time 8/8/26 don’t rotate. Stuck on the same one. No ability to move through them. The learning opportunities are otherwise good here.

### 1/5 — Misinformation

*2025-03-25, version 3.2.1*

•	There are 10 base vowels, not 8.
•	There are 11 complex vowels, not 13.

### 1/5 — All Grammar Lessons Are Gone. Essentially useless now.

*2025-01-14, version 3.2.1*

Unfortunately, due to Talk to Me in Korean removing their grammar lessons this app had to remove them as well but this leaves the app with no way to take learning seriously and has ruined the best part of it. I used to recommend this app all the time and now I cannot moving forward unless they make new grammar lessons that are just as in depth and organized as before.

### 1/5 — Car play Stopped working

*2023-12-19, version 2.10.0*

I pay for the subscription, I was happy to be able to listen to the talk to me in Korean lessons while I was driving. However I recently noticed the lessons stopped playing at all, car play or on the phone they simply won’t play.

### 1/5 — Grammar lessons gone. App ruined.

*2023-12-17, version 2.10.0*

This app was great, but the new update ruined it. The grammar lessons were my favorite. Have to delete it now.

### 1/5 — Where did Grammer lessons go?

*2023-09-27, version 2.10.0*

After update,all of my Grammer lessons are gone and I truly enjoyed them 😥. What happened? Will we get those lessons back?

### 1/5 — Awful

*2023-09-23, version 2.10.0*

TTIK used to be a very easy application to use. It was organized and very efficient. I would more than happy to pay for that service. I loved it. Now, the lessons are placed online, and it is a F.$&@ing mess. They are not as easy to access. They are on two different servers to access, so both can be playing at the same time through one computer (how does that happen?!), there’s no fast forward, or rewind, and they are completely disorganized and jumbled. Whoever made this decision should be replaced. I would do it in a nanoseconds.

### 2/5 — Removed all outdated free lessons

*2023-09-21, version 2.10.0*

I’ve been using ttmik to learn Korean for years, on and off. I understand their need to change to stay afloat, it’s just just a crappy thing to do to remove all content that was previously free. It is mostly old anyway, why not leave all previously free lessons up but do not update them, and keep updated lessons behind subscription? They just pulled the rug from under everyone, bad business practice. If you had this app before the update then don’t update unless you can find archive of previous lessons floating around online. I don’t mind paying a sub, but with the way this was handled I cannot support this service anymore in good faith.

### 1/5 — All grammar lessons removed

*2023-09-17, version 2.10.0*

All the grammar lessons were  deleted. Don’t update or you will lose ALL your cached content.

### 5/5 — Amazing app

*2023-01-30, version 2.3.2*

Perfect app for learning Korean step by step. Very easy to learn. 감사합니다 🫰
