## Most critical reviews (9 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Does not work.

*2023-06-18*

No updating means it doesn’t work.

### 1/5 — Needs repaired!!!

*2015-11-14*

Blank black screen is all that comes up when app is opened:(⬛️

### 1/5 — Waste of money

*2014-12-13*

App loads to a blank screen.  Same result despite deleting and redownloading.

### 1/5 — App is blank.

*2014-11-09*

Nothing happens. The app opens up blank and stays blank.

### 3/5 — French

*2015-09-11*

This is a good app for learning. I love the scramble bit to help me with sentence construction. I'd like a way to be able to repeat the voice dialogue on a phrase as repetitive listening will help pronunciation.

Sadly this app doesn't play anymore. I'm not sure whether it has not updated to the recent format  or what. It's a shame really as it was a good idea for adult learners.

### 4/5 — Good fun-minor improvements needed

*2013-03-02*

I really enjoyed the app. And highly recommend it for french semi-beginners and up. (You need at least one French class semester to get going.)  But the app didn't fit on my iPhone screen and I'd really like to see more literary options. More authors to choose from. Still, great fun and will keep using it.

### 5/5 — Thanks for the free app. Very good tool for learning to read.

*2013-03-29*

Nice tool for a read along. Not for absolute beginners... Just what I was looking for. Thanks.

### 5/5 — Wonderful concept, well implemented

*2013-01-12*

Comprehensible input is the basis of language acquisition, and this app provides just that for the advancing beginner/intermediate student. Fantastic!

### 5/5 — Great apps.

*2012-06-24*

It's a fantastic apps but not for beginners, though. Highly recommended for those who want to improve their french in a very fun and educational way.
