### 5/5 — 빠른 피드백과 간단한 작동법

*2026-07-31*

오류 발생에 대해 빠르게 피드백하여 업데이트 해주셔서 감사합니다. 덕분에 영어공부 너무 잘 하고있어요. 화면도 직관적이라서 너무 좋습니다 👍 유료버전 이게 비싸다고 하시면 안 됨 외국어플들이나 교육프로그램들은 훨씬비쌈; ㅠㅠ

**Developer response:** 이용해주셔서 감사합니다.^^

### 1/5 — 비쌈

*2025-10-23*

22000원 주고 구입했는데 앱 내 광고 제거하려면 12000원 추가로 내야함

### 1/5 — Very very hard application to use

*2025-10-08*

I spend almost all the night trying to figure out how to add the sub on the video I follow every thing like i name the video and also the same name i give to sub and add 2- srt nothing 😔 work

### 5/5 — 짱😄

*2025-09-30*

기능이 정말 좋네요~ 일어공부랑 영어공뷰를 동시에 하고있는데 언어학습에 필수 앱인것같습니다!!!!👍

**Developer response:** 좋은 평가 감사드립니다. 계속 좋은 기능을 개발 업데이트하겠습니다.

### 5/5 — 외국어 공부에 최고!

*2025-09-16*

한 번도 앱 리뷰 달아본 적이 없는데 정말 찾고 있던 기능들이 모두 있는 유용한 앱이라 리뷰 답니다. 감사합니다.

**Developer response:** 좋은 평가 감사드립니다. 계속 좋은 기능을 개발 업데이트하겠습니다.

### 3/5 — 외국어 학습에 좋은 앱

*2025-07-05*

자막 반복기능과 자체 앱에서 타임라인과 스크립트를 수정할 수 있다는 점이 좋습니다. 다만, 몇 가지 개선해야할 부분이 있는 것 같습니다. 첫째, 앱을 실행 중 에어팟이나 키보드를 사용한 일시정지, 재생등의 기능이 없습니다. 일반적인 음악앱은 모두 가능한데요... 둘째, 백그라운드 실행이 되지 않습니다. 이 두가지는 상당히 기본적인 기능인데 많이 아쉽습니다. 이  두가지가 개선된다면 정말 좋은 앱이라고 생각됩니다.

### 5/5 — 대박어플이네요~

*2025-04-30*

기본적인 반복재생도 잘 되고, 사전찾기, 챗지피티 연동, 자막편집이 가능한 어플은 이 앱이 유일하네요~

**Developer response:** 이용해주셔서 감사합니다.

### 5/5 — 갑자기 먹통입니다

*2025-03-20*

결제재서 온라인으로 유투영상 받아서 사용중인데 갑자기 30분전부터 먹통이에요… 자막씽크 안맞는거 일일히 다 고치고 코멘트까지 달아놓은 상태인데 지금 너무 난감하네요
목록에서 클릭을 해도 재생 안됩니다. 다른 파일들은 열렸다 안열렸다 자기맘대로에요 ㅠ 
어플을 껏다 켜도 폰을 껏다켜도 안되네요. 어플을 삭제하려니 씽크 맞춰놓은 영상 다 삭제될까봐 못하겠어요
뭐가 문제죠? 공부해야해요 해결좀 해주세요….

**Developer response:** 유튜브 영상의 편집된 자막은 앱 저장소의 Subtitle Yotube폴더에 저장되어 있으니 우선 따로 보관하시기 바랍니다. 보관된 자막은 언제든지 다시 불러들여 사용할 수 있습니다. drxes4179@gmail.com로 좀더 자세히 상황을 알려주시면 감사하겠습니다.

### 5/5 — 오류가 없는  학습기

*2025-03-19*

영어공부를 하는데 구간 반복기능이 최고입니다 저는  광고가 싫어서 몆번  테스트 해보고 구매하였습니다 리뷰가  좋은 앱에 도움이 되었으면 좋겠네요

**Developer response:** 이용해주셔서 감사합니다.

### 5/5 — 질문

*2025-02-16*

백그라운드 재생에 대한 언급이 없어서 이곳에 질문합니다. 유료 결제하면 백그라운드 재생이 가능한지요?

**Developer response:** 아쉽게도 백그라운드 재생은 현재 지원하지 않습니다. 이용해주셔서 감사합니다
