Contact Learn New Words Every Day Support

by McIFI

Uses exactly the same few words, in the same order, and only allows an infinite loop. It has potential, but I think it wasn't ready to be released and much less to charge (and quite costly) for this very basic app with so much work pending.

Wants review and I've hardly used it. I like the AI-generated artwork. (Only one set) quizzes me on Spanish words and phrases, to which I response I know/I don't know. Still need to know how to CREATE flashcards. I can create but cannot add them to folders, so I can't quiz myself on the cards I create. UI is too hard to figure out and there are no instructions. Definitely not worth the full price (got for free today)!

Thanks to a heads-up by 𝗔𝗽𝗽𝗔𝗱𝘃𝗶𝗰𝗲’𝘀 𝘼𝙥𝙥𝙨 𝙂𝙤𝙣𝙚 𝙁𝙧𝙚𝙚 listings, after downloading I was able to immediately partake in an upgrade to Pro via a free Lifetime IAP (𝘯𝘰𝘳𝘮𝘢𝘭𝘭𝘺 𝘢𝘯 𝘪𝘯𝘴𝘢𝘯𝘦𝘭𝘺 𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘳-𝘱𝘳𝘪𝘤𝘦𝘥 𝗨𝗦$𝟵𝟵.𝟵𝟵).

After upgrading, I got the “Everything’s all set” message, and I gave it a whirl.

After adding four (maybe five) words for further flash card studying, I’m receiving a message to “Upgrade to see the translation” — However — ❶ I already have already upgraded (remember the free IAP?), and ❷ There’s no option showing anywhere in the app to do (or, in my case, re-do) the upgrade.

After making your initial selections (namely your native language, the language you are trying to learn, why you are trying to learn, and your current level of knowledge regarding the language you are trying to learn), there is no way to change any of those things again.

Another annoyance is that once the on-screen keyboard appears, you cannot read / see / action anything in the bottom-most portion of the screen, because the indismissable keyboard never goes away.

Even without the above issues, I don’t like the app interface, nor it’s teaching approach.

All the app seems to do is show you a flash card session of phrases / sentences, and prompts you to tap “𝗶𝗞𝗻𝗼𝘄,” or “𝗶𝗗𝗼𝗻’𝘁.” Either way, there’s no feedback whatsoever, or any further teaching. At the end of the session, you are shown a score of how many “𝙞𝙆𝙣𝙤𝙬𝘴” you tapped on versus the “𝙞𝘿𝙤𝙣’𝙩𝘴.”

During my testing, the app made no attempt to break the phrases / sentences that you don’t know into smaller pieces, give you a dictionary definition, nor mention which words are nouns vs. verbs, adverbs, etc. Shows no synonyms, or antonyms, or anything.

The audio pronunciations of everything also left much to be desired. It’s obvious that a low quality text to speech conversion is occurring. The voice sounds tinny, like from the 2000’s, and the enunciation is practically nil. There are no voices (or HQ voices) to choose from. There are no playback controls other than tapping the tiny speaker glyph to play it again — most notably that the playback speed cannot be changed — and it’s stuck on fast.

Sure you can add more flash cards, and organize them into folders, but it’s far to little for more than a flat price of US$0.99.

𝗗𝗲𝘃𝘀 — You’re very welcome for the free Beta testing by this Pʀᴏꜰᴇssɪᴏɴᴀʟ Sᴏꜰᴛᴡᴀʀᴇ Dᴇᴠᴇʟᴏᴘᴇʀ.

Please try harder. Much harder.

Change the price to a flat rate (it’s currently not worth paying more than US$0.99 for it).

𝗢𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿𝘀 — If the dev doesn’t make fixes and add much needed improvements, just avoid this app!
