Exactly what I needed

With Opura, it is VERY easy to store my shorthand outlines and practice them. I have well over 2000 anniversary Gregg shorthand entries stored in the app now. I do not have to worry about forgetting all my shorthand because Opura has PLENTY of practice and spaced repetition options. This will be an app I use long term—kudos to the team.

Amazing & intuitive shorthand practice app

LOVE!!! Opura is simple and navigable—all the features are easy to understand and use. Absolutely love the practicum feature, which creates a writing session based on my own added dictionary. Recommended for anyone looking to work on their shorthand, or any language skill for that matter. This app makes learning accessible and efficient.
