### 4/5 — Great App!

*2026-04-03*

Love the speed and how the vocabulary and phrases are split to make it easier to hear and repeat. Only qualm is that it’s buggy at times where it does not recognize my voice so I have to “Try Again” multiple times and if still unsuccessful, exit the lesson and retry it.

### 5/5 — 고마워

*2026-03-20*

This is the best app it goes in with my others im autistic so having different options that I can use is the best

### 5/5 — 탄뎀시 매우 유용!

*2024-02-13, version 1.0.06*

현재 독일인 2명과 탄뎀을 하고 있습니다. 매번 오늘은어떤 주제로 이야기를 나눠야하나 고민하며 준비할게 좀 있었는데, 앱을 통해서 스타트를 끊고 이야기를 확장해 나갈 수 있어서 정말 유용했습니다. 또한 독일인 친구들도 추가 콘텐츠를 찾을 필요 없이 매일 최소단위 공부량으로 하루 한 문장을 간단한 퀴즈와 함께 할 수 있어서 부담없이 공부할 수 있다고도 했습니다. 한국어교육이나 탄뎀을 하실 때 부교재로 활용하시면 정말 좋은 앱이라 생각합니다!

### 5/5 — 정말 유용합니다

*2024-01-07, version 1.0.0*

복잡한 거 없이 정말 처음부터 배우기 쉽게 만들어 주셨네요 감사히 배우겠읍니다
