Top Pcmac Reviews

  • No sound

    By slp stu (Pcmac user)

    Wasted money! Needed this app for class. Don’t recommend spending money on this app
  • zero stars

    By abacarlitos (Pcmac user)

    horrible app. very polluted and doesn't do anything. waste of money. so annoying...
  • Good but needs tweaking

    By Thecyn (Pcmac user)

    I downloaded this app because it was advertised as helpful for people studying linguistics and for EFL instructors, and I am both. Others have mentioned the positive aspects, but I have to add that there are some things that could be improved. The first really big one is the American English. It would be really helpful to have all the sounds of American English and an option to choose it when the user begins studying. Quite a few of the games and exercises are just pictures with no interactive elements, which I could get for free or even make myself. If these three aspects were improved, I would recommend this to my friends. At the moment, I wouldn't.
  • Great introduction to the IPA!

    By Jggghdxdgxdgv (Pcmac user)

    This is a great introduction to the IPA. Games can be played to quiz yourself; it makes learning fun. Suggestions for improvement: 1-I would love a database of more words. 2- I would like the quizzes to have a random order when they generate their questions. 3- Even though I am American, I like having British sounds, because you can work with more phonemes. Having an American set of words would add to the challenge,learning, and appeal. 4- could diacritical marks be included? 5-In brief, this is a great tool for a teacher in England working with younger students! It is fun to play with and well designed. I am glad I got it! However, if you live in north America and already know a lot about the IPA, the ap could be a disappointment. It needs more words to keep an adult engaged. An enormous amount of words in a expandable database would make this ap a treasure!
