User reviews

Thorough and highly instructive

This is a super helpful app for anyone who works with their voice. The in-depth description, visuals and audio really help to tie everything together to break down what is happening in speech. Cannot recommend this highly enough!

Brilliant for Voice Teaching

This is an amazing resource, invaluable for supporting students of voice to learn and understand the subtle movements in the mouth that create speech. Fantastic app!

Interactive IPA & MORE

This is such an amazing tool for learning speech sounds, literally from all angles! Super useful to combine visual & sound. It’s normally so hard to imagine what is going on inside the mouth and trying to picture where the tongue is and how it’s moving, but now it all makes sense. Seeing how nuance and detailed movements can change a sound is BRILLIANT!
