Ratings and reviews

I really like this app. It has a nice combination of exercises to help memorize vocabulary. My 한근spelling and handwriting is getting better because of the writing exercises. I love that I can choose to focus only on verbs or adjectives. I've also been enjoying the grammar lessons. And I like that the example sentences have native speaker audio recordings. The only thing that's not great is that even if you turn Romanisation off, it doesn't turn off everywhere.

As a native English speaker, I've had a really hard time in the past memorizing Hangul. I've tried several other apps in the past to help with this, but none have been as effective as Jamo Korean. The different ways in which learners are taught the language helps immensely with knowledge retention and set you up well for success. I highly recommend this app for those interested in learning Korean!

I was about to start the aspirated consonants when I started the app today (3/3/26) and found myself in unexpected but familiar territory - back in the basics in vertical vowels. None of my previous progress was visible until after I completed the vertical vowels lesson. There was a big change there, too, as prior to this update, all vowels required the ieung (ex: 어, 아, 오) for them to be marked correct. That said, I have been enjoying the app and recommend it to anyone working on their Korean.
