## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Dreadful Text to Speech reader

*2022-08-25, version 3.8.0*

This is NOT Ukrainian spoken by a human, but a dreadful text-to-speech reader that cannot recognize Cyrillic and cannot render it as spoken Ukrainian.

### 1/5 — Not that great

*2022-04-11, version 3.8.0*

I’ve compared this to other apps, voice sounds AI generated and some words’ pronunciation is inaccurate.

### 1/5 — App

*2010-03-06, version 0*

does not work... Does nothing

### 2/5 — Useless

*2019-05-31, version 3.8.0*

Unless you already know the basics this will not help you. Basic words like hello, goodbye and thank you are missing.

### 2/5 — Poor VoiceOver and No Verbs

*2013-07-01, version 2.6.0*

Poor VoiceOver and No Verbs

### 2/5 — Needs work

*2009-06-07, version 0*

I would suggest adding phonetic spellings, particularly for those of us who can't read Russian/Ukranian.

### 4/5 — Pretty amazing

*2012-04-18, version 2.1.0*

Extremely good for learning vocab-has alot of ways to learn and even can quiz you. The one thing that can be improved is to add transliterations

### 4/5 — Please add

*2011-02-22, version 1.9.0*

Please add phonetic spelling! Sometimes you can't tell what the exact pronunciation is from the recording. Also, please add 'Ukranian' to the title of the app on the homescreen since I have several of the other essentials apps.  Otherwise, it's a good app like the rest of the essentials language apps.

### 5/5 — Good flashcards vocabulary builder

*2014-09-01, version 2.7.0*

One of the better iPhone apps to practice Ukrainian. The format is good for learning and practicing. I hope they add more words.

### 5/5 — Good!

*2013-06-08, version 2.6.0*

Covers most basics, i like it

### 5/5 — Ukrainian Heritage !!

*2009-06-11, version 0*

This is a great App, if you are Ukrainian - Like myself and feel the need to learn more about your culture. It teaches you everyday saying you would need to know, and says them out to you so you know how to say them! It is a great App - so go buy it!
