Features

Record a short phrase. Hear it backwards. Try to say that backwards take, then flip your attempt. If you matched well, it sounds like the original. Tap any waveform to replay that take. Your score is a game score for how close your flipped attempt sounds to the original, not a speech recognizer. Works on iPhone and iPad, portrait or landscape. No account, nothing uploaded: your voice stays on your device. Optional: Remove Ads is a one-time purchase that hides the banner.
