## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Pointless

*2013-08-30, version 2.6.0*

You'll learn the words for the seasons and blizzard and black pepper and some of the colours, but you won't learn the words for hello or thank you or anything useful.

### 1/5 — Poor

*2012-01-31, version 2.1.0*

Very poor, hasn't got phrases. Rubbish

### 1/5 — Rubbish

*2011-05-09, version 1.9.0*

One of the worst language apps. Haven't even managed to use it to master basic phrases.

### 2/5 — Crashing

*2018-11-02*

App was working great without issues until today. I have used it every day for over a week, and now it crashes as soon as I launch it.

### 2/5 — Not for travellers

*2011-08-24*

The 156 words in this app include "lightning", "grey" and "warm front" but not "hello", "thank you" or "goodbye". Having the pronunciation is nice but it's not teaching me what I want to know.

### 2/5 — Unhelpful words

*2011-08-03*

"Cold front," "frost," and "beige" - really??? These are not words that should be in an app teaching the "essentials" of any language. How about including "street," "friend," or even "to tell" before those ridiculous inclusions? Considering I can look up Turkish months and numbers easily online, I'd say this app has maybe 30 useful words for a beginner.

### 3/5 — Not bad for flashcards

*2015-04-27*

The only problem seems to be a limited number of words in the flashcards. Also, it is not very helpful for learning grammar. Like how do I conjugate this infinitive?

### 3/5 — Has potential

*2010-08-18, version 0*

Could be the best language app ever just needs some essentials like hello

### 3/5 — CRAP

*2010-05-30, version 0*

This didn't help me learn turkish at all ! Type in search TURKISH GIDE it's the free one with the Turkish flag as their logo!! That one actualy tells you how to greet people and ask how they are !!

### 3/5 — Help

*2010-02-26, version 0*

I can only get English pronounciation not Turkish which is what I need. Can anyone help.

I am loving learning with this app Fabulous free resource For the reviewer below who can't find Turkish / English way round they want keep following the Study Options arrow the ones with the books through and the option to switch is there

### 5/5 — Brilliant

*2009-10-29, version 0*

I'm in the early stages of adult education learning the Turkish language and this app is perfect. It gives you all the basics in getting into the language spoken clearly in both Turkish and English. I cant believe this app was free.

### 5/5 — Perfect

For daily life it's perfect app, programi yapan arkadasa cok tesekkur ederim...

### 4/5 — Great for Vocab

*2011-08-11, version 2.0.1*

Great app for increasing your vocabulary. Not designed for phrases. Preferred the look and feel of the earlier version
