Not functioning

Seems like this stopped working for a while now.

Swahili learning

I love this app and I wish it has more vocabulary.

Fantastic

This is one of my go to tools which has helped me so much as I grow my Swahili. I would recommend it to anyone learning the language.

Great

Marvelous app

Enough!

I would have given it a higher rating if it didn’t interrupt me so often asking for a review - even after I gave it some stars!

Helpful App...

When used with other Apps. The good thing here is some very necessary terms to help construct Kiswahili grammar correctly show up. They are also correct, best I can tell. Other apps seem to have various mistakes or colloquialisms or Sheng input. What’s here tracks with various dictionaries. I greatly appreciate the way this app is put together; simple yet powerful. THANK YOU!

No greetings?!

I can’t believe how the app tries to teach things like house items and colours but there is absolutely nothing about greetings like “Hello” and “Goodbye”.

Perhaps people in this language don’t greet each other?

Great app! A few typos

I love this app! It really love the portability of it and the wide variety of vocabulary and lessons. They’re are a few typos like in numbers section, they say kitabu is bed when it is actually book for example. Other than that, it’s great!

Very Useful! Especially for the way I learn.

Am enjoying it immensely! Got it in tandem with another Swahili app. Very good together. The audio is extremely helpful! Highly recommend!

So far so good

Went over lessons once and left it alone for some days. Got back to it and it felt more natural. Seems not cramming it works good.

Early experience good.

I keep getting prompted to rate even though I have only spent about 15 minutes on the app. So far I am very pleased. Seems very clear and well organised. Just what I wanted.

Very practical approach to learning the language.

Basic but useful exercises.

So far do good

Got it to teach my children swahili. First try: good. Good sound, great articulate pronunciation.

Asanteni sana

I am loving this app, along with two others, to learn Swahili. The vocabulary sections are especially helpful, as is the breakdown of how the words change depending on whose got what! One of the other apps seems to expect you to know when to use "mtanzania" vs "watanzania" etc. The words were suddenly introduced without explanation. With this app, now I know. That other app also doesn't offer pronunciation.
The reason for four stars here? I couldn't find the very common "asante" (thank you) in this app. I had to go to the other app to find it.
Also, some of the links to pronunciations are off. However, I did write the developers and got a quick reply they are working to fix it.

So far, this is the one app I would pay for, once they work out those bugs.

Swahili primer ni fit!

I am just loving this app! Swahili primer breaks down the language in a way that is really understandable to non-native speakers and is so much better than any class I have taken. I may be moving to rural Tanzania and this will be immensely helpful!

Terrific language App

This app is beautifully designed for ease of use and the lessons and exercises are easy to follow. I have nothing but praise for this app.

Excellent

A very good app. Audio is clear and easy to understand. The app itself is easy to navigate with a number of groups for you to learn.

Great app!

I've always wanted to learn the language, this app is perfect

Nzuri sana!!!

This app is great! Helps me practice grammar structuring as well!!

So easy!

Love this simple and easy app.
