(How to) Pronounce Reviews

by Powderski3

August 13, 2019: My very first use of HowtoPronounce was to hear “its” recommended pronunciation of the Spanish island of Ibiza. Hear for yourself the recommended pronunciation, which uses the typical “z” sound. Every other pronunciation site, however, stresses that the “z” in Ibiza is pronounced “th.” Wow. What a disappointing first impression. I hope this gets corrected, and soon. But how can we rely on other recommended pronunciations?

I suggest you read this review if if you want me to help you same your time by not downloading HowtoPronounce.

For the people who are smart enough to keep reading I will give you 5 reasons why you shouldn’t get HowtoPronounce.

1. I was trying to learn Korean and HowtoPronounce wouldn’t let me hear how to pronounce the word correctly.

2. When ever I tried to change the voice it would go back to the same voice.

3. You can hardly understand the male voice in HowtoPronounce so you can’t really hear the letters it’s saying.

4. I does NOT do different languages only voices of how the person sounds.

5. HowtoPronounce is only good at doing different voices and some times it pronounces words wrong.

I just gave you 5 reasons not to get HowtoPronounce. It really doesn’t deserve 1 star. In my opinion it deserves -5 stars and this is the first time I’ve ever said that about any app that I don’t like. This shouldn’t be an app if it doesn’t work properly. Either the person(people) that made HowtoPronounce fix it or take it off HowtoPronounce Store because this just ain’t working.

You still get HowtoPronounce if want to, but I did warn you.

Doesn't even deserve one star. Pronunciation of many, if not most French words and phrases is very poor. In fact, it is almost laughable.
I have heard correct French pronunciation since my early childhood. Do not attempt to speak French using this as your guide!
Since my original very negative (deservedly so) review, you have made significant improvement to the French pronunciation component of your app. The new male speaker now knows how to correctly pronounce French! Thank you for listening...

I downloaded HowtoPronounce and was looking forward to using it. After entering one word and receding the correct pronunciation a pop up came on asking if I would like to upgrade and receive HowtoPronounce without ads. I responded no and just after a cartoon porn appeared. I guess if you paid for HowtoPronounce without ads it might have not happened. Very disappointed deleting HowtoPronounce .

Shouldn’t HowtoPronounce helping to pronounce have the CORRECT pronunciation! We’ll unfortunately not always and of corse you wouldn’t know you have the wrong pronunciation unless you check multiple places, but I know the very first word I tied just to see how accurate it was and it was wrong! Completely wrong vowel sounds or HowtoPronounce voice is just that bad, one or the other cuz not very often can the sound of a (ee)disguise itself as an (i)

I enjoy using HowtoPronounce but realize it would be more effective having a few extra additions such as the definition of the word, synonyms and thesaurus. An option to use the word in a sentence. These features would add value and
dimension to the application.

I’m a 59yr old father of 6, my wife and I recently began homeschooling our 12yr old son. Since we’re from S. Louisiana I not only have a southern draw I also have a very thick Cajun accent. During our Language and Spelling lessons I have to either call out words or dictate sentences to him. According to my son he has a hard time understanding what I’m saying, personally I think he’s just trying to get out of work 😂 After doing a little digging I found HowtoPronounce, thankfully HowtoPronounce ended our little disputes over correct pronunciation! I would highly recommend HowtoPronounce to anyone looking for pronunciation help!👌👌👍

HowtoPronounce is a great one but I have one suggestion when I look up the word I want to know what it means too so 4 stars ⭐️ I just think that update would make me give 5 stars ⭐️

It is a good app

Happy Customer

Currently Teaching WWI. Instead of fumbling over how to pronounce foreign names (Przemysl , for example) I am able to hear them pronounced correctly and thereby teach my children the correct way pronounce them.

I was going to give up when I came across HowtoPronounce. Understand, names with mostly consonants no vowels are ha d to pronounce . HowtoPronounce is a life saver and I appreciate whomever created the t because it has a much needed. Thank you. When I call and ask for the person with the correct pronunciation, they are impressed and warm toward me.

Love the useful ease of HowtoPronounce. No fumbling about trying to decipher how to get correct, immediate results.
Wish all apps were this user friendly and clear.
Thank you for this tool.

There are names of some shopping products (like “Cetaphil”..!) that I have no entire clue how I should pronounce them, especially in front of an employee or whoever, & this helps out majorly 😄 Thanks so much for giving us a usable app that kills it 😁

Pronouncing words out loud has always brought me great stress & anxiety. HowtoPronounce is one of the most used on my phone! Reading & reading aloud are very different animals. Thanks for making this & lowering my blood pressure!!

Have never been able to “sound out” words, finally I can learn how to say words. This is just the greatest, wish I had found it years ago.

I need to do a British accent for a role in a play, and HowtoPronounce allows me to save each one of my lines and hear them in a British accent easily, I can even hear them slowly! Definitely buying full version tomorrow just to support the developers

I love HowtoPronounce because when I am struggling with the correct pronunciation of a word, it has been beneficial for me and I feel more comfortable with reading out loud without feeling overwhelmed because I am struggling with a pronunciation of certain words. Thank you for HowtoPronounce!

Having problems pronouncing words. As a child had speech problems. HowtoPronounce gives me the opportunity to select words and learn how to pronounce, without the embarrassment of being corrected. HowtoPronounce really has enabled me to pronounce words correctly. Love ❤️ it..
