It does not speak , it simply retypes your sentence. This isn't what was described. ### 1/5 — Worthless app *2011-10-01, version 3.0* DON'T BUY! This is a waste of time and money. ### 1/5 — Genealogist *2011-09-26* This program is not even close to a decent Scottish accent. I chat with Scots on line all the time and this has been no help for me to chat with them. Basically it's "nae good"! ### 1/5 — Stay away *2011-09-12* Although it is not a free app, annoying adds keep popping up. The app itself is only text based. I though it would let me hear the translated phrase, but only written text is provided. For an app on accents this is a big minus. ### 1/5 — Nonsense *2011-07-08, version 2.0* Terrible app. It is a joke on the Scottish language. ### 1/5 — Does not translate *2010-06-21* Does not translate on my iphone ### 1/5 — Naw bad *2010-03-01* Dinny buy this if yer fae scotland you can speak mare scots as this wee thing. It's awrite if yi dinny come fae here but. For example nutter should be bampot but it just says nutter. Nae scots whit so ever. So it's naw bad if yer like English but if yer fae Scotland its naw worth it so. A hope this is helpful fur ee. ### 1/5 — Spealin Scottish ???? *2009-04-05* The Scottish translation for Scotland Forever is Alba Gu Brath, this program translates it to Scotland forever, what kind of translation is this?? ### 4/5 — Great slang app! *2009-03-23* I've been sending some hilarious messages to friends w/this one ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — DO NOT PURCHASE *2024-07-14* DOES NOT WORK. DOES ABSOLUTELY NOTHING. SCAM. ### 1/5 — Doesn’t make sense *2024-05-03* There’s no audio. Some of these reviews seem fake. This is terrible ### 1/5 — Don’t purchase *2018-05-12* I’m Scottish and believe me when I say I wish I had never got this app. Definitely need to research the words and spellings you use. I was curious when I purchased and it’s the worst app ever. ### 1/5 — Awful App *2016-10-18* The app has no sound so it's of no real use. ### 1/5 — No sound! *2014-10-18* Don't expect to learn an accent with this app, it's silent. I check my volume twice before realizing that text is all it does. ### 1/5 — Worst App Ever *2014-08-19* This app is terrible. Based on the name and description, I assumed I'd HEAR some Scottish accents to learn from. This app has no sound whatsoever. You just type in a word or phrase and the app spits out a guess as to the phonetic spelling of the Scottish way of saying it. Completely mis-advertised and a complete waste of money. ### 1/5 — Just say no *2014-04-11* Waste of time and waste of money ### 1/5 — Waste of money *2012-11-20* It doesn't have an accent just text conversion no sound. ### 1/5 — Voice specialist *2012-01-22, version 3.0* Lame ### 1/5 — Rubbish *2012-01-13* I thought this app would be a speaking ap, the description would also suggest this, but it's not. It's just a text ap - Rubbish! ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Great *2013-08-05* It's a great app great fun for chatting to your friends that are English ### 5/5 — Love it! *2013-01-31* I'll let the app "speak for itself! ### 5/5 — Just Amazing!! *2012-06-06* I was watching the previews for the movie Brave and I thought it would be great to have a Scottish accent and this was the only great app I found!!!!! ### 5/5 — Awesome app *2012-03-31* This is an amazin app!! Freeeeeeedoooom!!! Lol:)!! ### 5/5 — Love it!!! *2011-12-30, version 3.0* Love it ### 5/5 — Fun *2011-11-16* Cute ap. Fun to use. Not to be confused with gaelic, Scotts is its own tounge... ### 5/5 — There's an app for that... *2009-12-24* When they say "there's an app for that", they aren't kidding! My mom jokingly asked me if there was an app to help her write the dialog of a Scottish character in her book and a quick search of the app store led to this. Simple to use and a lot of fun, this app was exactly what we needed! ### 5/5 — Scottish Lesson *2009-10-18* Pure dead brilliant!!! ### 5/5 — kilts in a bilt *2009-04-19* captain! we dont have enough power! ### 5/5 — Yes! Great App! *2009-02-25* Finally an app that delivers what it promises. I highly recommend this one ;-) --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
