### 5/5 — Recent issue

*2021-07-08*

The sound doesn’t work on mine when I try to play the audio (on my iPad)..I really really love this app by the way. Thank you so much for the work you put into it.

**Developer response:** Thanks for your review!

Maybe you can solve the sound issue to do following. 

iPhone Settings > Accessibility > VoiceOver > speech > Add New Language... > Korean(South Korea)

If you can't solve the issue, please write the review again or send me an email(dev.yakuza@gmail.com)

Thanks and have a nice day.

### 5/5 — Great app for Studying TOPIK!

*2020-01-06*

This app is really great! It provides all the vocabulary in 5 section. Those are then divided into 15 word segments. Those segments you can quiz all together or one at a time! If you are studying topik I really recommend this app!!

**Developer response:** thanks for giving a review!
and happy new year~

### 4/5 — Simple and good for expanding vocab

*2021-10-23*

I’m not studying to take the TOPIK so I can’t speak to that but I am using this to expand my vocab and it’s nice to have this app as a centralized place to go to. Simple layout with different units, I do wish that units I have finished were put in a different folder or something so it would be a little easier to get to them to review, but that’s a minor complaint because as it is now I just have to scroll down for a while. Thank you for making this app 😚👍

**Developer response:** Hi, Ronniesnothome

Thanks for your review. 

There are some features to help reviewing the studied units.
1. You can find the sorting icon on the right top of the unit screen. When you tap it, not studied units are shown first. 
2. When you studied 15 words in the part, the unit review button is displayed on the right top of the unit screen. So, you can review all words that you studied in the part.
3. When you studied 100 words in the app, the review button is displayed on the right top of the part screen. So, you can review all words that you studied in the app. 

I think these are helpful to review studied words. Please take a look these features. 
And I will think about your idea to apply the app.

Thanks again and have a nice day. 
감사합니다

### 4/5 — helpful

*2020-11-10, version 3.2.2*

i am an overseas Korean. i live in America and is partially fluent but i am studying Korean to become fully fluent. This app is extremely helpful and useful. However, some of the definitions are cut off. Besides that, this app is extremely good .

**Developer response:** Thanks for your reviews!

I will try to fix the cut off bug!
And I will do my best to keep working well!

Thanks so much and have a nice day
감사합니다!!

### 4/5 — Good app

*2020-08-14*

This app is good but I think if the words are organised into topic groups this app would be so much better.

**Developer response:** thanks for your review!
I will try to apply your opinion

thanks

### 5/5 — Best Korea vocab app

*2026-07-05*

I needed this mix of harder words and basic words that still didn’t skew completely basic. I like the flash card like setup in the beginning of each unit along w pronunciation help. And the ability to save specific words is key.

**Developer response:** Hello,

Thank you so much for taking the time to leave such a thoughtful review.

I'm really happy to hear that the mix of basic and more advanced vocabulary is helping your studies, and that you enjoy the flashcard-style learning, pronunciation support, and the ability to save words. Knowing that these features are useful makes all the time spent developing the app worthwhile.

As I'm developing and maintaining this app by myself, it's quite difficult to let more learners know about it. If you have friends who are preparing for the TOPIK exam or learning Korean, I would truly appreciate it if you could recommend the app to them. Your support helps me continue improving it.

Thank you again for your kind review. I hope the app continues to support your Korean learning journey, and I wish you all the best with your TOPIK studies!

### 5/5 — Good App, Needs Grouping

*2026-03-23*

I wish the section 1-5 actually represented the difficulty of the words, and more foundational words were represented in the beginning, while more abstract and specialized words were later.
But otherwise its great for learning words daily.

**Developer response:** Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. I really appreciate your feedback.

I’m sorry for any inconvenience caused by the current word grouping. I understand how having words ordered by difficulty would improve the learning experience, and I’ll look into whether it’s possible to group them in a more structured way.

Thanks again for your support!

### 5/5 — Nice app!

*2025-12-28*

I like this app and it’s very useful. One thing I’d like to see updated is a flash card feature to make it easier to review/memorize words within the app! Overall great resource 😊

**Developer response:** Hello,

Thank you so much for leaving a review.

I’m really, really happy to hear that the app I created is helping someone with their Korean studies, even if just a little.
I will continue working hard to make this Korean vocabulary app even more convenient and enjoyable for learning.

I will look into the possibility of adding a flashcard feature.

Since I develop and manage the app on my own, I face some difficulties with promoting it.
If you happen to know any friends who are studying TOPIK or learning Korean, I would be truly grateful if you could recommend this app to them. It would be a huge help in keeping the service running.

Thank you once again for taking the time to leave a review.
I hope you have a wonderful and happy day.

### 5/5 — BEST FREE APP FOR KOREAN VOCAB

*2023-12-21*

I’ve tried dozens of Korean apps, but hands down for learning vocabulary this is the best one. The best part is that there’s no limit to how much you can learn every day, which is my biggest issue with the free versions of most apps.

### 5/5 — wowowowoowow

*2023-03-18*

Within a few days of this app, I’ve already retained some words. The only thing I wish would be updated on this app is a testing function that makes you type in the answer, everything else is amazing!!!

**Developer response:** Thanks for your review.

### 5/5 — Great Amount of Words

*2022-02-17*

The only real complaint I have is that I wish it was organized better. There are common and uncommon words thrown in together and that makes it difficult to gradually step into the app. It feels more like you're just thrown in at a high level. It would be better if the words were organized from most common to least common so that anyone can use the app and get familiar with the language. For instance, the first 3 parts can be all the words you should probably know to speak fluently, part 4 are some unique words but occasionally come up, and part 5 would be words you're more than likely not going to use. 

That's the only improvement that I think would be good. If that change were to happen, this app would be perfect.

**Developer response:** Thanks for your review.

I will check that I can change the order of the words as you mentioned.

Thanks again and have a nice day!
감사합니다.
