Ese pupo!

Thank you so much for this high quality application. It has been so helpful in teaching my children yoruba and I’ve learned some things myself.

Where has this App been hiding?

By far the best I’ve seen so far. It’s actual Yoruba, not the Anglicized version of Yoruba that I’ve encountered different places...when I saw Fitila...instead of Lampu, I knew this was the app for me and my son. The voices are forcefully employed in the pronunciations, which my 3 year old responds to enthusiastically. (It might be jarring to western ears)

I look forward to updates.

Amazing

Really great app.

Just lovely!

I started learning Yoruba to understand my hubby’s culture better and decided to try this app and I loved it! The games are simple but the enthusiasm in the audio content makes it really fun to play and helps vocabulary stick. The cultural music in the background and the collectables also add a nice touch.
The content is a bit limited and there are no grammar explanations for the sentences provided but it’s helpful in getting familiar with the sounds of the language, for gaining some vocabulary, and for immersion and can be used along side other learning resources.
I think this app would be wonderful for kids of parents that want them to have a bit more exposure to the language.

Thank you :-)

Learned with grandma

I picked this up to learn More Yoruba. My grandma, who is fluent loved the app and we would work on gaining the achievements together.

The app is interactive, and the UI is done well.

Only thing I wish is that there were more lessons to learn in the app

Response from developer

Thank you. We have more lessons in Yoruba102 (GeniiGames App)

A Yoruba app made for me!!!

After discovering via DNA test (Thanks African Ancestry!!!!!) that I hail from the Yoruba tribe I have been trying to learn the language. I have purchased paper back & ebooks (which are ok), but I was seeking an interactive & fun way to learn Yoruba before visiting Yorubaland in Nigeria next year!

Now it looks like this app will help accelerate my learning via fun interactive games & songs! Yay!

Note: I am surprised the prices are this affordable as I paid $50 for one Yoruba book (& much more for other books & apps elsewhere).

Thank you

Phenomenal App!!

I grew up hearing Yoruba but responding in English as I didn’t value the language at the time. This is a perfect tool to stay in touch and learn vital skills (intonation and pronunciation which can make a huge difference to the quality of learning). Thank you!

P.S. it would be even better if the time out speeds were longer

Very good app but wish I could unlock the other levels for free tho

Great application!

Simple to use and understand. I look forward to the next update so that I can give it 5 stars

Awesome

An innovative concept. This Yoruba learning app has been fun for my son and his friends. They love it.

Great App!!

This app presents a wonderful way to learn Yoruba for beginners. It's great for children and adults! It also offers historical information on African history!

Great app!!

I absolutely love this app. It's helpful with both spelling and pronunciation. I wish there was a second app to continue learning with.

Fun app

Fun and interactive! I did not know I could learn so many vocabulary words so quickly.

Really good app! In-app purchases are worth it also

I'm a native speaker but this app taught me new words too, really fun quick games and clean visuals. Would probably be very useful to beginners.

This app is engaging and enables you to learn Yoruba the fun way.

Great Educational Tool for Yoruba Language

This has been the only app to learn Yoruba language in an easy and simple method especially for new learners. Thanks so much as my family really love it.

it's good but...

It's cute and you learn but there isn't a whole lot in it. What is shown on the screen grabs is pretty much it. It's interactive, and the quality good. The alphabet, a few words and a few sentences is all it has, needs more content. I'm glad it was only .99 cents

Yoruba101

A very cool and innovative way to learn an African language. I found this app so refreshing i feel its for all ages plus the the music in the background had me doing my best Azonto. #geniigames.
