So far SO good!!!

I’ve just started using this and am only on my 9th lesson, but it is SUPER easy to use and has help me progress lots!!! Highly recommend if you are interested in Toki Pona

Alright

Decent enough for learning the language, but by lesson 3, it starts adding words that aren’t in the vocabulary you have already learned. This makes it a little frustrating as exiting the lesson to look the word up restarts the lesson from the beginning.

I love this app

I learned in about 3 days it's awesome

Wonderful app

Great for toki pona. I use it as my reference dictionary.

@developer, where did the dictionary list come from? I noticed alasa and namako but not kipisi.

Bad, outdated course

This app uses a course written in 2004, and Toki Pona has changed a lot since then. The explanations are insufficient, many dictionary entries are wrong, and the exercises often require you to know a grammatical feature not introduced yet in the course. Please do not use this app to learn Toki Pona.
