### 3/5 — Update?

*2015-10-29*

Hi, will you be updating the app to work with the latest version of iOS?

### 5/5 — Using it!

*2014-07-08*

I purchased this apps 7 months ago. I just arrive home from Zimbabwe on 4 of July.  I could understand a lot of my in-laws Shona and speak a little.  I even started dreaming in Shona and was there for just 3 weeks!  I'm so ready to return (practicing more so now).

### 2/5 — Shocked

*2013-10-17*

Okay as first words and pronouncing goes its okay ,it would have benefitted from more everyday words..as it goes on it's ridiculous that passport is translated into passipoti c'mon guys magwaro ekufambisa would sound right,the numbers don't get me started !!its mockery of the Shona language at its best for £6.99 I feel I've been robbed,£1,99 would sound right for this app which has been so poorly translated,I hope there's an update fixing all these " borrowed " words!

### 4/5 — Great app!

*2013-03-30*

Great app for our bilingual family especially the interactive images for children. Could do with updates to quantity of words and perhaps some basic sentences too. Some images are not very intuitive such as manheru, pamusoroi, masikati etc. Overall a pleasant and tidy package for the family.

### 3/5 — Useful, but pricey

*2012-04-18*

If new to Shona this is a useful app. It is a little pricey and one category is in English. However, the app itself is well put together and addresses most learning styles.

### 1/5 — Robbery

*2011-12-23*

Do not waste your money unless you want to be robbed!!! Loads of the language is English in a Zimbabwe accent this should not be allowed to happen, seriously annoyed about this and have reported it to apple

### 2/5 — Okay app

*2011-04-27*

Some of the words are not correct.  I showed it to a friend from Zim and she laughed and said that most of what I am learning I will not use when I am in Zim. But it is not a bad app as there are so few resources available to learn Shona.

### 4/5 — Great but more vocab needed for the price.

*2010-11-14*

Great layout, fun and interesting. An excellent way to learn vocab. Bit of a cop out on Time and Countries - English words pronounced with a Shona accent. Perhaps other vocab should have been included instead. Expensive app when compared to products like Numbers, Pages etc. Would be great to add on additional vocab packs later on.

### 5/5 — I recommend it

*2010-06-09*

The facility to communicate is amazing vocabulary and games help you to remember words and phrases most useful.
