### 4/5 — Nice, but just one thing

*2021-10-08*

Nice, but the pronouncement isn’t 100% accurate

### 5/5 — Easy to learn

*2021-02-23*

Really helped me learn the Greek alphabet! The app is pretty good, but some letters end up getting chopped off in the multiple choice questions.

### 5/5 — Great

*2021-02-21, version 3.1.13*

Great app

### 5/5 — This works great! Thanks!

*2020-12-05*

There is a wrong letter in the lowercase test for delta. Otherwise, this app has been perf!

### 5/5 — Rev Bob Hitching

*2020-10-08, version 3.1.9*

Excellent resource.

### 5/5 — Really good app!!

*2020-09-10, version 3.1.8*

Really good app to learn the Greek alphabet! I’ve considered purchasing the full version, but it is not clear what added options you get for it. Perhaps the developer should make this clearer in the app or on the app store.

### 4/5 — Good, but two issues

*2020-08-23*

This is a great app that was really helpful to me. But it has a couple issues: 1) It often seems needlessly picky about the order and direction of the strokes one makes to form the letters. 2) The voice uses Modern Greek pronunciation for the letters, but the transliterated (i.e., English phonetic) text uses Erasmian pronunciation. Using either for both would be fine, but mixing them like this is needlessly confusing.

### 5/5 — Great, clear and easy to use

*2020-04-26, version 2.1.1*

I am learning the Greek alphabet quickly and also how to say it.

### 4/5 — Great help for a novice like me!

*2019-11-17, version 2.1.1*

I found this app extremely helpful as I started on my quest to learn Greek! 
Easy to use, very very simple to follow

### 5/5 — Works nicely

*2018-09-18, version 2.1.1*

My only criticism is it's a nuisance to have to keep tapping the screen again to move to the next item.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Wrong way to write the letters, pronunciation wonky

*2021-02-21*

(1) This trains you the wrong way to write the letters. I purchased the app and found that out the hard way. 

(2) the pronunciation is wonky and indistinct. It’s hard to discern whether the speaker is saying one of three or four different letters.

### 3/5 — α problem

*2024-09-01, version 4.4.5*

Great app! Only problem is with the letter Alpha, after drawing the circle the final line with a flick has to be completely accurate or it doesn’t register.

### 3/5 — App is lagging

*2022-10-28*

Whenever I try to write a letter it stops me mid-line and it won’t process it.

### 3/5 — Pretty good

*2022-09-14, version 3.1.20*

Really helping with the alphabet. Please can you change lower case gamma? When asked to ‘write’ it, one has to draw something that looks more like a dying fish than the actual letter ‘gamma’. Otherwise, thanks.

### 3/5 — Why can’t I hear sound

*2019-11-07*

Why can’t I hear sound

### 3/5 — Great, but not great

*2019-03-30, version 2.1.1*

A really nice way to the letters. But way does it not indicate capital letters? It should be always indicated, otherwise you to guess which leads to a lot of unnecessary mistakes.  5 Straße otherwise.

### 3/5 — stroke order and direction required??

*2018-09-27*

This might be a great app if it let you draw the letters in more than one way. It makes no sense to require two strokes for the kappa, or that the alpha must start from the top down. who cares? Made the whole thing very frustrating.

### 3/5 — Good app, save one complication.

*2018-09-25*

I've noticed several times there are multiple correct answers to a multiple choice question - for example epsilon,  Ε or ε. The problem is that it is expecting you to pick a particular case - so you have a 50/50 chance of picking correctly. Minor critique but it stands out when trying to get all questions in a review correct.

### 4/5 — The app is great but on my iPad it loads sideways

*2023-04-30*

As above

### 4/5 — Greek alphabet

*2023-03-16*

I studied the upper and lower case letters, and had fun with this app in learning those, but I noticed that sometimes I’m writing the letter too high or too low, so I’d like an exercise which pairs the upper and lower case forms together.  That could give me a better idea of where they go on a line. (A few upper and lower cases are quite different from each other too.) I’d like an exercise  for writing the alphabet in order as well.  I like how this app combines listening, reading, and writing skills.  We hear, see, and write in the same exercise; that’s very helpful.  A few letters that sound very much alike to me anyway—mu and nu, for example—maybe there could be an extra exercise for them.

*2025-02-10*

I LOVE this app SO much,this app is my new obsession

### 5/5 — Good

*2025-02-08, version 4.4.7*

should add pronunciation

### 5/5 — Great to learn the alphabet!

*2024-11-30*

I downloaded this app to see if it would help me pick up the alphabet a little more but in a game style and it lets practice then test out it’s a little strict with how you write out the letters, but I think it helps a lot with memorization. It helped me a lot to pick it up quickly since I’m not a sitdown person! Yes, there are ads, but they are very short

### 5/5 — This is an amazing app for learning the Greek  alphabet !

*2024-06-27*

### 5/5 — Für Anfänger

*2023-12-04, version 4.2.3*

Top gerade für Anfänger super geeignet dank der App kann ich nun das griechische Alphabet 🩷 Wärmstens zu empfehlen 👍🏼

### 5/5 — God bless you for this work.

*2021-11-02*

I was looking for this way of learning Greek a long time, finally i founded it.
Really, asking our Lord to protect all from all disease, light your soul and have more success to all your team for this work.
Go ahead from success to another to be on the top.
