### 4/5 — A very good app

*2026-02-11, version 1.1.0*

This used to be the best Khmer "survival" language app that I was able to find and use (five stars). However, after an upgrade to iOS 26.2 everything I have now is a practically blank screen. Deleting and reinstalling the app did not help. I wish the program is still supported somehow. Thank you.

### 4/5 — Khmer

*2024-02-29, version 1.1.0*

What a great app!!! The audio is amazing. Very helpful. But the flash cards are blank and I would like to have flash cards to practice, this forced me to write my own. But this is an amazing app!

### 4/5 — Quite a good app

*2024-01-01, version 1.1.0*

This is a very well-thought out app, and the speaker is generally easy to understand. I read in another review that in order to slow down the speaker (they go a little quick for a novice), you must go to settings; however, upon my clicking on settings, the app kicks me off.

Overall, this is a very good app for learning Khmer.

### 4/5 — I like the app it’s really good

*2022-07-09, version 1.1.0*

But the flash cards don’t work for me I just get a empty card can you fix that?

### 4/5 — Good enough

*2022-04-21, version 1.1.0*

Not the , THE, best.  But then again, it is free.  And love no internet required.  

Speaks a bit fast.  No slow down speaking mode.  No way to keep track of test results.  But it does have both writings.  

Perfect starter program, all in all.

### 4/5 — Good app to leaning Khmer

*2020-04-08, version 1.1.0*

Good for beginer

### 4/5 — Nice Khmer App.....but ....

*2018-08-20, version 1.1.0*

It would really be nice to be able to change playback speed of the app’s spoken phrases. 
     The speed of speaking is really too fast for some people trying to carefully listen to the pronunciation of the individual words in the sentences. 

    It would be nice to be able to adjust it to 25%,  50%,  75%, and 100% speaking speed. 

  Thank you

*2017-11-12, version 1.1.0*

I was adopted away from my family and valet speak my native language. Everywhere I looked there were no classes and teachers costed so much money. I was so disappointed. I am Cambodian! This is my true language. I am so happy I can start to learn how to communicate with my family as we reunite. THANK YOU!!!!

### 1/5 — Useless. No longer works

*2026-03-22, version 1.1.0*

It was working 6 months ago but no longer works. Such a shame.

### 1/5 — What the what!

*2019-05-10, version 1.1.0*

So I’m going around downloading other language apps just to get a laugh but OMG. I can’t. If your not Cambodian you will think it is good but LOL I had a good laugh. Awful on most. “Canada” is just Canada. “Brazil” is just Brazil. Geez. Teach people correctly.

### 1/5 — cui bap. hoi trc mua o cai samsung jo sang iphone no ko cho dang nhap tk do. dkm

*2018-10-17, version 1.1.0*

### 1/5 — 跟本是騙錢的APp

*2017-04-09, version 1.1.0*

升級付費了。得不到升級的版本。
沒有註冊選項，及個人登入選項

### 2/5 — Simple but app logo / artist doesn’t show on Home Screen

*2025-02-22, version 1.1.0*

Just blank and not aesthetic once downloaded it’s a blank logo and not the elephant art. I’ve redownloaded too.

### 3/5 — Simply Learn Khmer

*2023-11-18, version 1.1.0*

The free version is ok while the paid version is better. The quality of the sound and speech are good despite the fact that there are several speakers each with different rates of speech. 

Rather than re-record everything to be more uniform, it would be much better if the app had a speed control like some of the better apps. Then it would be worth what they at charging.

### 3/5 — Too fast to learn for me

*2020-07-26, version 1.1.0*

Nice app, but the main problem in Khmer is that people speak way too fast for me to learn and understand the pronunciation. How ironic that I can even ear a split between words on the sentence “could you speak slower please”!

### 3/5 — Needs More Food Options

*2020-04-30, version 1.1.0*

Needs more spice options

### 3/5 — Buggy

*2020-03-24, version 1.1.0*

I love the interface and it’s easy to use, but the flash cards are blank.

### 3/5 — Excellent app but...

*2019-05-04, version 1.1.0*

This is a great app. It features high quality audio, excellent pronunciation and features a ton of words. I was especially excited about the study feature that utilizes long term memorization theory. Unfortunately that side of the app is so buggy. 

When going to study phrases, both the answer box and question box are blank. Sound plays normally but I cant see the question or hearthe answer. Otherwise this was an extremely powerful app.

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2025-05-06*

This app was very amazing to help me learn Carmine. And it was very very very, very, very, very helpful and helped my speech and it helped me connect with my cousins. I highly recommend this app for anyone who’s trying to learn Khmer. It’s a great way to learn about the history of the world and the history of it all and it’s a great resource for anyone who wants to learn more about it and learn more about the history of history and history of the country and the history of the continent and the history of the people of the

Very good app for learn khmer !

### 5/5 — Best app so far for Khmer learning.

*2021-04-09, version 1.1.0*

Right away I love the app but so far I noticed like the rest of the reviews that there is no option for playback speed. It is to fast for people who want to hear it slowly to really get the pronunciations

### 5/5 — Khmer – very GOOD

*2020-04-07, version 1.1.0*

Such a good app.  You get my five stars.  Can you please slow down the voice.  It is much too fast.  Thank you very much.

### 5/5 — Great way to learn Khmer.

*2020-02-02, version 1.1.0*

I’ve been looking for a app that will teaching Khmer and by far this is one of the better ones. The women’s voice is clear and easy to understand.

I would suggest to have more medical information. I’m a nurse and would like to learn more medical terminology for my practice. Thank you!

### 5/5 — とても良いです！

*2018-12-06, version 1.1.0*

とても内容が充実してます。

今後の希望です。
クメール語の音声をゆっくり再生出来ると良いと思います。
今は、ネイティブに近い音声スピードなので日本人の初心者にはヒアリングは難しいです。
