Android?
This app is great on my iPad. But sadly it’s not available on newer Android phones…which is where I most need it for daily use. If I could have it on my Galaxy S25 it would easily be 5-stars.
Better than most Bible Greek apps, but lacks necessary features
The reason why I give 3 stars rather than higher is because it lacks an adequate algorithm for learning vocab. The amount of vocab you learn at once is too few, 5-8, which is not enough for spaced repetition. Sure, the card deck might be 50+, but you only see a few until you tell the app that you have the word down. This is not spaced repetition, and shows the developer really doesn’t understand language learning at all. If the app had modern language learning features, if it was more like memrise or quizlet, it would be better. Yes, memrise only does a handful of words at a time too, but it periodically has you review vocab, where this app does not do that. This app would be much more useful if you could view the whole deck. 3 stars for the art, the amount of vocab, ability to filter by type and frequency, and definitely for showing the frequency of a word, which most apps lack.

Thank you for the constructive criticism. We will definitely consider your recommendations. To clear something, I would say that I have been learning and teaching languages for many years, so stating that "the developer doesn’t understand language learning at all" is far from reality or a distorted hyperbola. I will definitely consider your recommendations but I also admit that I don’t have a budget of Memrise or Quizlet. I work within my means. In current state, my apps helped thousands of users, so the algorithm works. Can it be improved? Probably yes, so we always strive to grow. Thank you. You are appreciated.
Helpful but not modern or reconstructed
I had watched a YouTube video of the app usage and was so hopeful based on comments from 2 years ago that at least reconstructed or perhaps modern was an option, but after purchasing I find it is not included. I don’t wish to learn erasmian and it is not a foundation for me to try to switch back and forth trying to fix or correct it. I had already purchased the Hebrew app which I love and the pronunciation is helpful. I had high hopes that were now dropped as I don’t want to mess up 6 months of modern while learning biblical Greek. If this was an option in settings to select modern then this would be a solid 5 stars and the go to app for every student like the Hebrew equivalent app. Without it, it’s just like the rest and would suggest using a different parsing app with more features and same price point. Will reevaluate this if pronunciation options are added.
Update: I have to admit that the way this app works is helpful to study while at work and in the go and the pictures are so memorable. Check out “ark” I had a good laugh. I’m giving it a solid 4 stars as this is a really good app, just only had erasmian. I noticed the audio on some words are similar to modern. I do recommend this app even if you are doing modern as the Flashcards are very handy in the go. I haven’t found it yet but would like the option to have picture hidden as sometimes I know the answer based on the picture but don’t really know the word. Maybe have a 3 part card where the hint is the picture. I know the test has no picture and is multiple choice.

Thank you for the recommendations. Much appreciated. I plan to update this app soon. 1. There will be a switch to hide images. I plan to offer different pronunciation systems. Many people ask. So, it’s coming at one point.

Great App!
I’ve set a goal of learning Koine Greek and have found this app to be very helpful in my endeavors.
