Ratings and reviews

This has such huge potential! Most of us are looking for something with structured learning - like elementary school books for grades K-5, with stories that rely on repetitive fundamental phrases that teach basic grammar structure and essential vocabulary that slowly moves the learner beyond "tourist" Irish. This app seems ready to move in this direction and I hope it continues to grow!

The interface is easy, I like the categories and the use of phonetics. Unfortunately, the android version seems a tiny bit unfinished. I am on wifi, but I can't heart phrases or hear them spoken, and the main home page will look blank when I load it in. I hope there's a way to work out the kinks, I love this idea and would love to be able to learn things phonetically as I take time to learn the grammar.

They advertise a one of payment for audio, and then when you purchase it, they say the audio is coming soon. They never stated that before purchase, so I asked for a refund. Plus, the student pack says thousands of words are available. I searched simple words like expensive and they were not available so again I requested a refund for this section. This is an unfinished app that will be good when it is done, and they shouldn't be charging for an unfinished app with very little content available.
