### 5/5 — 어플 구매를 좀 취소하고싶습니다

어플 구매를 햇는데 제발좀 취소해주세요. 계속 결제시도때문에 계좌를 못쓰고있습니다

### 3/5 — It’s helpful

*2021-03-03*

I find the app to be great. Breaks it down easily, the romanization is always different from other apps  and etc but I find it to be pretty close. It’s childlike app however for a beginner like I or anyone who would to freshen up their skills I highly recommend. But like many other learning languages app to get further into it, to learn more you of course have to pay which automatically makes you wanna delete the app. So I’ll continue to go over as much as I can with the free options within it but after a while may not use it since the hinderance of having to pay to go further in the app is utmost discouraging.

**Developer response:** Thanks for your feedback humboldt974.  There is paid content.  It costs money to build and maintain the app. We will add more free content in future updates.
