Ratings and reviews

This is an awesome application. I do recommend downloading this, I think it's pretty helpful. The customized lessons are awesome! If the developers end up reading this, please fix your speed button. It works, but it is a pain to get to the slower speeds. I have to click through the faster ones first until I finally reach the slow speed. Maybe a track/slide bar so the user can just slide to the speed they want. Besides that, it's great so far!

The voice analysis is a great tool, but I don't think it can be trusted. It sometimes gives bad scores to simple single words (me, sinä), and other times gives good scores after not even completing the sentence. The translations are also often wrong. The wrong translations seem like they're one out of every twenty or so, but that's enough to make it untrustworthy. I don't want to learn a word and find out a year from now that it's wrong during a conversation. Uninstalling.

The app teaches some words, functions well, and has decent audio. This app has no ads and is free. I rated the app 3stars because the lessons are not intuitive. The customizing feature is basically a lessin playlist. Basic things like saying "hello" are not prioritized. There is too much emphasis on pictures and not enough on text. The text is way too small to read while the pictures are taking up most of the screen in each lesson. Quizes focus on text despite the lessons being heavily audio.
