DYNAMITE APP!!!

This is an, “AWESOME”, app! I use it any time there is a word I may have seen before, but, I don’t know how to pronounce it! It is great for assisting you with pronouncing the names of people, places and things! I would recommend it for download to anybody who wants pronounce words properly! It’s very simple to use, you just type the word you want to pronounce and press the “READ”, button to hear the pronunciation of that word, that’s it! It’s a very useful application to have, in my opinion, for oral communication and dictation! It may also be great to use for preparation in a spelling bee, ‘cause it will be able to pronounce any word in a dictionary, “PRECISELY”, all you need to do then, is know iwhat the word you’re spelling means, after you learn or hear how to pronounce it, that’s all! I give this app 5 stars, it’s worth having in your bag!

Very helpful

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 this app, thankfully this app ended our little disputes over correct pronunciation! I would highly recommend this app to anyone looking for pronunciation help!👌👌👍

Not Worth It!!!!

I suggest you read this review if if you want me to help you same your time by not downloading this app. For the people who are smart enough to keep reading I will give you 5 reasons why you shouldn’t get this app. 1. I was trying to learn Korean and this app 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 this app 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. This app is only good at doing different voices and some times it pronounces words wrong. I just gave you 5 reasons not to get this app. 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 this app fix it or take it off the App Store because this just ain’t working. You still get the app if want to, but I did warn you.

Good but less ads would be great!

It’s a great app- Free Love you can change the voice to your preference & hear it slowly if needed! I work from home and have to pronounce strange names daily & I like to do it right- but sometimes when I need to type it in I can’t because there’s an ad..

Thank you!

I was going to give up when I came across this app. Understand, names with mostly consonants no vowels are ha d to pronounce . This app 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.

Pronouncing words

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

How to pronounce ????

Shouldn’t the app 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 the app voice is just that bad, one or the other cuz not very often can the sound of a (ee)disguise itself as an (i)

Pronounce

I love this app 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 this app!

Saves my reputation as a smart person

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

Amazing! Helps so much

I need to do a British accent for a role in a play, and this app 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

The Greatest!

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.

Poor French pronunciation

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...

For years I’ve been having problem in pronunciation of word and names. This app has been very helpful to me, when I was young I learned to read by remembering words by sight

Poor Pronunciation

Basic words in Spanish were not pronounced correctly. Especially with the vowels. This needs way more work as an app to accurately teach non-Spanish speakers how to properly annunciate the vowels/words as a whole. This app may be good for a very basic starting point for someone that has never heard Spanish but definitely will not teach the actual correct way to say anything in the future.

Outstanding app

Such a great app. Clear and concise pronunciation of the language. I am using it for French. You can input complete phrases and the pronunciation is clear. Thank you for such an incredible product.

Pronouncing the right word

Helpful App

I love this app! I use it mostly to help me learn how to pronounce the usual names in the Bible. The only reason I didn’t give it that last star is because the voice is sometimes hard for me to understand.

Great just one flaw

This app 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

A homeschool must!

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.

Cartoon porn

I downloaded the app 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 the app without ads. I responded no and just after a cartoon porn appeared. I guess if you paid for the app without ads it might have not happened. Very disappointed deleting the app.

Add value to the app

I enjoy using this app 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.

Extremely disappointed

August 13, 2019: My very first use of this app 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?

Great App

Great app. Has been very useful in my learning how to pronounce English and French(my new language) words properly, or at least show me how. 💯💯

Appreciated

As English is my second language, this pronunciation app has helped me improve my grammar and annunciation while reading and speaking. Thank you app developers!

5 years ago, BobR1003

Not accurate

This app is not accurate, it just guesses how to pronounce words. If I wanted a guess, I could guess myself. It does get many simple and common words correct, but is wrong on many difficult and complex words. I know English but occasionally want to know the correct pronunciation of unfamiliar words. This app is of no help.

Annoying popups

Love this app because it has definition and the word broken into symbols.

👎 Aggressive Ads (lite version)

Aggressive adverts & solicitation for paid Pro version — all within the first few minutes of use. App itself performed acceptably, albeit limited in its lite version. Note: iOS native "Speak" feature does a better job of pronunciation. Simply double-tap-highlight word then select "Speak."
