### 4/5 — Vocalising

*2023-01-16*

The app is good but it would help me if the words were pronounced as an alternative.

### 4/5 — I Cannnot play on my iPod touch...

*2022-04-06*

Unfortunatety

### 5/5 — Great app!

*2021-08-07*

I’m reviewing schoolboy Greek and this app is ideal. It has great content and encourages diligence.

### 5/5 — Work very well

*2021-06-24*

Works very well

### 5/5 — Love it

*2021-05-26*

I can’t say enough...I use it for practice all the time

### 5/5 — Helps build sight word vocabulary!

*2021-02-23*

Love it ❤️

### 5/5 — Ideal and fun

*2020-09-29*

This app is like a dream come true for students of Ancient Greek.  Combines the best of flash cards and pop quizzes, and improves your memory of all those noun declensions and verb forms surprisingly quickly.  And it’s addictively fun at the same time!  I would give it ten stars if I could.  Bravo and THANK YOU!

### 5/5 — Useful, usable and rigorous

*2020-05-10*

Makes drilling vocabulary and inflections painless.

### 5/5 — My busiest app!

*2020-03-07*

Because of its tremendous functionality, this is the busiest app on my device! Better than flash cards and a great reference. Also just had a great experience with its support service as well.

### 5/5 — Necessary

*2019-10-06*

Always a good time to learn a dead language.

### 5/5 — Love it...

*2019-09-26*

I can't say enough good things about it..It's fantastic!!

### 5/5 — Very good

*2019-01-20*

The best one.

### 4/5 — You should be able to reset your score.

*2018-05-21*

It’s a good, simple, effective method, but I don’t like the way you can’t re-set your score. So, even though your knowledge improves, the score forever decreases even if you learn from your mistakes. That’s not a helpful learning tool.

### 5/5 — Liberation Philology Greek

*2018-05-03*

These programs are certainly the best for rigorous but painless drilling on vocabulary and grammar basics.
I love learning languages and these are treasures!

### 4/5 — Excellent

*2018-02-10*

Yes, as the other reviewer said, this app is a godsend for the student of Ancient Greek.  An invaluable aid.  There is a small problem with the verb section - some confusion in the questions between indicatives and infinitives, but  it’s not a huge problem. Overall, highly recommend ed.

### 5/5 — Great reference

*2018-01-27*

App contains a resourceful reference and helpful tests. It makes learning easier!

### 5/5 — Best Greek App

*2017-12-09*

By far the best app for learning and improving Greek. I love the function of quizzing noun, verb, and participle declensions.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2016-08-06*

No explanation of how to pronounce anything unintuitive and intimidating no use for beginners or anyone wanting to learn how to speak or read Ancient Greek

### 1/5 — Stinks

*2015-08-03, version 1.8*

I can't believe I blew $3.99 on this!  There are no lessons.  They show you words or parts of speech.  You guess the meaning.    They show you the correct answer.  Yes, with enough repetition, I suppose you learn a little, but it's incredibly boring.  I'm deleting it.

### 1/5 — Nothing

*2013-08-04*

Disappointing to be honest. I got nothing worthwhile from this.

### 2/5 — I dunno

*2018-09-15, version 2.1.2*

Honestly, this app doesn’t work for me. I just got it not ten minutes ago and I already want a refund. I go on there and I select verbs and it starts asking me these hard questions. I have no idea about the language- thats why I want to learn it. So, if you already know the language and just want to brush up, this is perfect for you. I have no idea what the alphabet is or anything- how the letters are pronounced- my knowledge of ancient greek is the size of a molecule.It just bombardes me with questions without saying anything to me and I’m like, how the heck am I supposed to know??? So, beginners I would definitely not get this app. For those who already know at least the alphabet, that decision lies on you. So yeah.

### 2/5 — Meh

*2017-01-15*

Not worth £3

### 2/5 — Ten Words at a Time?

*2013-05-19, version 1.3.1*

This app only lets you drill with ten words at a time. Its overall word bank is extensive, but being limited to just a few at a time on any given level severely compromises any pedagogical merit. For those of us who are already familiar with Greek and just want to review, this app lacks the utility of, say, a pack of flash cards.

### 2/5 — Conjugations are no good!

*2013-04-24, version 1.3*

I picked this app out because of the reviews, & because other Ancient Greek apps have been slammed for their various inaccuracies.

Unfortunately, in spite of a valiant attempt, this app falls short as well.

I have repeatedly come across instances in which the verb conjugations differ from those given in Athenaze I & II, enough I've become very leery of trusting the various conjugations. 

If I'm going to pick an authoritative source, Athenaze wins out over an iPhone app. Just sad there isn't anything out there up to par to help those learning this language!

### 3/5 — Nice

*2022-12-08*

Really Worker.

### 3/5 — Could be better

*2017-03-01, version 1.8.5*

I was really excited about this app and was even willing to pay $4 for it, but when I started learning, there was no introduction to the Greek alphabet or anything to help me out. The reference is useless because there is no pronounciatiom guide. I highly suggest adding some voice element to it.

### 4/5 — Useful, small complaint

*2024-02-29*

Thus far this seems to facilitate my learning of Greek very well. One thing that bothers me is how they put the first person verbs in vocabulary into the English infinitive rather than "I _." To learn Greek you have to think Greek, I don't like throwing to in front of a verb when that's just wrong.

Otherwise, the app is useful for learning forms and what not.
