### 5/5 — Awesome

*2024-07-20*

This app simplifies learning Italian and teaches by listening but also the spelling. Worth the money. I have tried many but this one has helped learn more.

### 5/5 — Mr Brendon Flint

*2022-11-04, version 4.3*

This is a really useful little app. Writing and visuals are really clear. The Jewel speed payback is a really useful facility. The categorization of words and phrases helps to locate one’s thinking prior to attempting reading writing speaking Italian. I would certainly recommend it for a beginner such as I.

### 1/5 — Can’t trust it

*2022-06-08*

I was hoping this travel phrasebook would be more reliable than an online translator but the first time I used it in Italy, the Italian waiter was confused and I showed him the sentence written in the app— then told me the correct way to say it.  So now I don’t feel confident using the app.

### 5/5 — Perfect

*2021-08-07, version 4.0*

Perfect for beginners.
Would of liked to see colours too but there are many useful categories that you can choose from!

### 5/5 — Love it

*2021-02-03*

I learned more than I imagined

### 5/5 — Good Resource

*2020-07-29*

This is a great, free language app. It’s divided by topic, which is convenient for those who may want to learn some topics more than others. It’s a good mix of words and phrases, which are clearly articulated in Italian audio.

### 1/5 — Just for travelling

*2020-05-06, version 4.0*

There is hardly any essential word necessary for personal conversation. I was expecting the list of, for example, adjectives to describe people or feelings but there is none. I am disappointed.

### 2/5 — Disappointing for full version

*2019-12-10, version 4.0*

Not that many topics

### 2/5 — Very limited

*2019-09-11*

Good pronunciation guides and plenty of basics, but too small a library of terms

### 1/5 — Useless

*2019-06-24, version 4.0*

Incorrect translations and not nearly as good as Google Translator which can also be used offline, but is free. Waste of money.
