If it had pop-ups telling me why the a server are what they are, it would be exemplary. **Developer response:** Thank you. Much appreciated. ### 3/5 — Good app *2022-07-10, version 4.00* I enjoy this app. However, in my opinion, it It would be nice if there were more examples. Thanks 😇 ### 3/5 — In Ap update doesn’t work and developer MIA *2022-06-10, version 4.00* In Ap update doesn’t work and developer MIA ### 4/5 — Fun app *2021-10-08, version 4.00* This app is fun! I’d like to see an added function that lets you input your own sentences and diagram them. That would rock. ### 4/5 — No longer works *2021-03-09* This app stopped working after iPhone’s last update. **Developer response:** Please contact us (via email) with details. It continues to work on our iPhone devices. ### 2/5 — Not enough content *2020-05-14* The app is good for reviewing grammar, but less so for newbies. There aren’t any grammar explanations or instructions. I like how easy it is to do the puzzles, the interface is simple but works well. Unfortunately, there aren’t enough puzzles, not really worth it with how little you get. You go through them quickly and you have to pay to unlock more. That might be okay if there was quite a number more, but there are only a few new topics and you can’t see what you’re being asked to pay more for. I do really like this app, so it’s a shame there just isn’t enough content. ### 5/5 — Great for my students *2020-05-02* I recommended that my students buy it because we learn sentence diagramming. Some did, and they really like it. They find it helpful. I told them to buy it because I really enjoyed the gaming features. **Developer response:** Thank you so much for your review! ### 5/5 — Fun *2020-04-05, version 4.00* I enjoy this. It’s like a puzzle and it helps with parts of speech. ### 4/5 — My kids enjoyed it. *2019-10-10* I purchased this app to have my middle school son play. I wanted him to gain an understanding of various sentence structures. My hope was that it would help him with his writing skills. My son loves puzzles and has really enjoyed the app. I am frustrated that I spent $4 and the puzzles included in the price we’re completed within two or three days. Having to purchase additional content doesn’t quite sit right, and given the limited number of sentences, I don’t believe it’s worth it. ### 1/5 — Wack *2019-10-04, version 4.00* 100% not what I expected, expected a sentence diagrammer not a sentence diagramming game, kind of stupid tbh and 10000000% not worth 3.99 ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Complaint *2024-10-01, version 4.00* App Store sight should specifically state that this app is ***NOT*** have a sentence diagram generator function. Really. One should not have to read other buyers’ reviews after purchasing to figure that out. I just bought it and would like a refund. Misleading, at best. ### 1/5 — Misleading *2024-08-16, version 4.00* If you want to buy an app to watch videos that you could watch online for free and then take a “challenge”, then this is the app for you. It is not an app that helps with sentence diagramming as portrayed. It was a waste of money ### 1/5 — App Crashes *2024-08-07, version 4.00* Since the last iphone update Sen Gram crashes on launch. Is this app still being supported? ### 1/5 — Installed on Ipad. Doesn’t work.. *2023-09-14, version 4.00* App crashes hen ai try to use it. ### 1/5 — Review *2023-01-07, version 4.00* I hate this ### 1/5 — Complicated *2022-02-18, version 4.00* Honestly this app is not great. Sure diagraming on devices are great but this app can be VERY difficult to use.1) If you try to see how you did on a test it only shows you how you did in the very beginning. 2) it does not let you select which word to pick when putting it in the sentence.instead you flunk if your not paying attention because it did not let you pick the word. 3) It does NOT even diagram correctly. It adds punctuation to the diagram which is INCORRECT! I know that takes a lot of hard work on making an app but why should people trying to teach their kids have to pay money on an app that very COMPLICATED and doesn’t diagram 100 percent correct ### 1/5 — Not automated *2021-05-19, version 4.00* I was looking for a basic tool to automatically diagram a semi complex sentence. This is not that tool. This is a training toy for kids. ### 1/5 — Not user friendly and false advertised *2021-04-06, version 4.00* Would not recommend this app at all. It is difficult to figure out, not user friendly. And you cannot use your own sentences to diagram. I was under the impression this app would diagram sentences for me. ### 1/5 — You have to pay for app and to access certain levels *2021-03-03* I brought this app to work on diagramming noun clauses, and verbal clauses. I normally do not like paying for apps, but because this was for school I decided to let it slide. Turns out in order to use the noun clause, and verbal clause level you have to pay. I am not please about this. They should have written that this app contains in app payments in order to use certain levels. I don't like being lied to and this app/ company has done just that. I would like a refund please and Thank you! **Developer response:** We are sorry that this is not what you were after. The app description does not suggest that those types of puzzles are included, and does make it clear that there are in-app purchases. In those regards, your review is not fair. There is a procedure for obtaining refunds from the App Store. If you are not aware of the procedure, please send us an email. ### 1/5 — Misleading *2019-11-20, version 4.00* I bought this to help me with my home work and it is just puzzles ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — SenGram *2026-05-31, version 4.00* I love it!!!! ### 5/5 — Helpful for teachers *2025-07-08, version 4.00* I am using the app to teach English to non-native speakers. I appreciate all the sample sentences. I would like to see some supplementary exercises from the creator, or perhaps some commentary. Well done SenGram! ### 5/5 — SenGram is the best *2025-03-19* SenGram majorly helped me with my diagramming sentences. I went from getting D’s and C’s on grammar quizzes and now I’m getting A’s. Thank you SenGram. **Developer response:** Thank you! ### 5/5 — Needs to be more interactive *2024-08-27* I love diagramming but I wish we could draw the lines and place the words in any order we choose. I was taught to place the verb first and diagram the sentence around it, that makes more logical sense than following the words from beginning to end. Also, having the lines pre-drawn gives too many clues. But it’s still better than any other similar app I’ve seen. ### 5/5 — Great idea! *2023-05-05, version 4.00* This app is so useful for reviewing sentence structure. Please add more sentences to diagram. ### 5/5 — Fantastic Tool *2021-05-03* I have learned a great deal about structure of grammar using this tool, and have revisited it off and on over the years for reference. Plus, I just found it fun trying to solve the puzzles. I would love to see the puzzles expanded. **Developer response:** Thank you so much! ### 5/5 — Outstanding app outstanding support *2021-03-08* I had a problem with my iPad. The SenGram screen only showed a vertical line. I sent an email to SenGram support and they responded within a couple of hours. With the tips they gave me I was able to use the app. I have found this a very easy and enjoyable way to learn some difficult grammar concepts. ### 5/5 — Grammar on the go *2021-02-24, version 4.00* Easy to setup and use price is right. Great fir times when you have nothing to do in waiting rooms etc ### 5/5 — Fun challenging and still educational *2021-01-02, version 4.00* I actually really liked this game myself. I never learned how to do this in school and now that I am Homeschooling and have an 8th grader I wanted to show her how. So we watched a YouTube video on how to do it and then I found this app. True confessions: my husband came in the living room to ask why I hadn’t come to bed and I had to say that I was playing a sentence diagramming game. He is now more convinced than ever that I am a nerd. 😊 ### 5/5 — Great review for diagrammin *2020-07-02* This is a fun review for diagramming. I teach diagramming and I re-learned some things through this for some of the more complicated sentence structures which usually get little attention at the end of a course or book. I recommend it to my students. **Developer response:** Aloha and thank you! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
