Frustrating

This app is poorly done. The recordings are so fast that there is no way to accurately learn from listening. I don’t recommend buying. You have better chance of learning from watching TV. Waste of money!

Deleted all my accents too

All my paid accents have been deleted following an update. I spent quite a lot of money on here! No idea or clear way to get them back!

Crashing & has deleted all my accents

I used to really rely on this app but something has happened recently… it’s currently showing no accents available and the restore accents button is crashing the app, meaning that I no longer have access to the accents that I’ve bought previously. No way am I going to buy them again for £9.99 each?! Really disappointing, but the price increase and unreliability of the app means I’m going to have to go elsewhere. So disappointing when I’ve already spent a fair amount of money via this app, and like I say I used to love it.

AVOID APP - this appears to be a scam

Purchased one of the accents for £9.99 and it doesn’t let me access it download. No way of contacting App designers

Update: Works Well

After a technical snafu, everything has been restored and is working well. Great app, very helpful in working on accents.
