I am learning Greek. As the lessons get harder, the sentences get longer. This makes perfect sense. What does not make sense is the pronunciation analysis. The metered time allotted to pronounce a 1 word phrase, is the same as the time to say a 20 word, hard to say, sentence. My native Greek speaking tutor tried the analysis and received a 40% on one of those long sentences, because even though she spoke rapidly, even she didn't have enough time to finish the sentence. That's messed up!

Hi, the allotted time for the pronunciation analysis actually depends on the length of the phrase, and is quite precisely timed. For example, if a phrase takes 3 seconds for the native speaker to utter, you'll be given 5 seconds to do the same. If it takes 5 seconds, you'll be given 7 seconds, etc. Please contact via the side menu for more details

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!

We implemented a drop-down menu for the audio speed control in the latest version 1.4.3 :)

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.

Hi, the Voice Analysis is very robust but does rely upon proper timing by the student and most importantly, a quiet environment. It's sensitive, so if you jar your phone while speaking, it could affect the score. The translations are human-performed and human-curated, so we'd need more details from you in order to understand the perceived issue.

I downloaded this to point out that the app creator(s) is childish and vindictive. The comment you received, which you claimed to contain 8 mistakes, is ridiculous. I counted them; nearly all were not capitalizing the word "English", nor the beginning of the example sentence, two misspellings, and one missing comma! His comment was well-written, and he's CLEARLY a native English speaker! I don't know the guy, but would never use an app of yours, due to the lack of character you've displayed.

This language app is amazing!! I've tried and paid so much for so many, but this one has a feature that allows you to customize the courses to your goals (or profession), so it focuses on those words and phrases that you are most going to use/encounter based on your age and goals (or profession). And compared to the hundreds of dollars I've spent on other language programs this is a wonderfully affordable app

Thank you so much for your review! You really honed in on the uniqueness and value of the app, and I hope others will be inspired to give it a try when they read about your experience. One of the best hidden features is how, after the Review Day, you are able to create a course and quizzes based on the phrases you haven't yet mastered.
