Nothing special

Just stupid flash cards and a quiz. Only memorization it is very hard to retain words. 

fail..

this app has no greetings. or goodbyes. or anything along the lines of those. its pointless. I thought it would help with my German homework, but noo. all I needed was the forms of Heissen, and theyre not on it. definately not worth buying this..and the umlauts sound wrong.

its nice

not bad. its only useful for word memorization, but it does it well and its quite fun. but its obvious that its just a demo for the paid version since there is "only" 152 words. i imagine its a blast playing with this when theres 2000+ words. unfotunately, 10 bucks for that is a little too much

really good!

Great if you just started learning German! really good!

Horrible App.

Besides it being nothing but memorization, it only gives one form of the word. The pronunciation is WAY off and all of the words are described as Die. And a few of the definitions are...slightly different than I recall. If youre just trying to learn to spell German words then this app is okay. Learning to speak it? This app will screw you so hard...

Shut up

This app is decent for a demo. And to the people taking "German classes" and claiming the pronunciation is wrong , you obviously dont have a clue. I am a native German speaker and the pronunciation is perfect.

It doesnt give you the plural forms

Its free so it should be assumed that theyre not going to give you the amount of words that the paid version has but they could at least include the plural versions. Okay for beginners and those who need a brush up on vocab

Innovative

I really liked this application. Worked really good.

A great app.

It helps me learn and brush up on what I already know. It is pretty useful.

Awesome app

i think its pretty kool i am part German and i like this app a lot you should get it!

Add words

It isnt a bad app. It actually would be a fantastic application if you could add your own words to study, but with the limited vocab it is almost useless.

More words

It is great, but it needs an expanded word list. Maybe a payed version with more words?

A great app

Im German/ American so i really wanted to learn German i thought it would be cool to know 2 languages and this app is great its really helping me alot!

Yay ! For update.

I love, love, LOVE this app. The recent update has made it even better.

Dont buy for the wrong reason.

This is just a vocabulary learning app and It does it really well. People buy this app for the wrong reason then complain. 10$ is alot of money but to me it was well spent my german is about twice as good now since i bought this app.You wont learn sentences. In fact I like that it doesnt teach grammar. Thats what makes things complicated and deters people from learning. Learning after all is memorization so stop complaining about this just being a memorization app. I also like the fact that you can select which words to learn and the no look controls work very well. Huge improvement on the app that I wanted for a long time. Get this app if you want to build vocabulary fast. Adding new words would help as well.

Great app!

Great if you need to brush up, highly recommend it!

Incorrect

If your audio speaker cant even pronounce the word der right you have a problem... Der is pronounced dare (with a soft r sound) not deer Also ß are not really used in the German language anymore.

Good :)

Im trying to learn German & this is a really good app for a first step at learning the basics & important keywords for the German language. Great app :)

I like it but...

I believe this app needs social words too. At least hello and goodbye but other than that I like it a lot.

Great, heres a suggestion.

You should make your own flashcards using the translator. It makes a wider variety of words to learn. ;)
