### 5/5 — Such a useful app for work abroad

*2023-04-20*

I don’t know why this has only one star, I’ve used it lots for work and for play. Really helpful for getting or giving a medical history in Spanish speaking countries.  Recommended👍

### 1/5 — No audio

*2022-10-14*

I bought it because I wanted to hear his the words are pronounced. But there’s no audio. 

Save the money and learn via google translate.

### 3/5 — I thought it was worth it

*2022-02-01*

The phrases are very helpful for nursing for many broad basic assessment topics. however, I think the app may need an update as none of the audio phrases can be played out loud. Would get 4 stars if that was fixed.

### 1/5 — It doesn’t work

*2021-03-24*

No sound. Cannot use. Waste of money.

### 1/5 — no audio at alll

*2020-05-05*

you mentioned audio but it is not there,,, bad

### 4/5 — Very useful but audio went away

*2018-09-03*

It was very useful but I used it near a Bluetooth device and the audio stopped working.  Can’t get it back

### 2/5 — Room for improvement

*2018-01-09*

Decent app owever I dislike the apps input of names in to phrases so when talking to a patient It uses multiple different names as an introductions : would be better if the caregiver names were removed because my name is not “Sita “ but according to the app it’s one of my many names it says to the patient

### 1/5 — Ned Spanish

*2016-09-21*

The phrases won't play out of my iPhone speaker

### 5/5 — Best thing I bought in the apple store, after ultimate guitar lol

*2016-09-10, version 3.1.1*

I am so happy with this. I was about to buy a book or a cd on Amazon, but this will come in handy. It has all the basics that I need. And even has a conjugation part :) it's cheap and worth it!!!!

### 1/5 — Not working

*2016-01-31*

After initially working fine, the app no longer plays the phrases through my iPhone speaker.  The app support page is useless.
