Excellent App!
This is an excellent and eminently flexible app, with very handy customisation in the favorites section. The native audio is crystal clear and easily understood. I usually use Nemo, but this one is far better, where you can really drill down to get - and easily access - the phrases that you use the most. The Help section is very comprehensive, and there is a wide selection to choose in the Settings section. I have made a couple of suggestions for addition, and will wait to see if they get actioned. But, overall, this is the best Thai phrasebook app that I have seen - by far.

Update
Pls, do something about this app.
Right after the updated IOS 14.2 version, can not get a proper typing. Whenever I type out Thai words, I can not get the exact words.

Response from developer
Please contact us at support@word-in-the-hand.com and we can help; we have not had other reports of this so there's probably a simple setting that will fix it. Some customers reported keyboard switching problems that occasionally affect dictation, and the immediate workaround is to use the globe-shaped key on the keyboard to switch instead of the tab floating above the keyboard. But feel free to contact us if that does not work.
Best thai phrase app
To speak thai, it's essential to get the pronounciation right, if not people will not understand you. The best system for learning the pronounciation is Paiboon plus. This requirement rules out many thai apps. After a lot of trial and error with different apps, I now use ThaiPhrase and TalkingThai (both use Paiboon plus), take notes, repeat. This is by far the most effective, app-driven way to learn thai I have found. ThaiPhrase is comprehensive, relevant in terms of what you need, and easy to use

More than just a phrase book
Great little app. Many features as mentioned in previous reviews. The creators get instructional design and that is reflected in all Paiboon products I've used so far including (especially)the Talking Thai app.
As an intermediate Thai learner I find it great to browse ThaiPhrase app. Often I've typed in a verb I like to use and be surprised by finding clever examples of usage that I hadn't come across before. This is great for expanding conversational capabilities.
More than just a 'phrase book' app in my opinion--I think serious students of Thai can benefit well by adding this fun tool to their app list. Enjoy!
