Excellent app overall, but audio glitch is annoying
mrandomk
This app works great and is very usefull and used to be a 5 star overall for me. BUT, for about the last 8 months I have noticed a bug when playing sound files. The first ~ 1/10th of a second is repeated, making every pronunciation sound like a stutter. This happens regardless of which dialect or word is selected. Restarting my phone didn’t help. Deleting and reinstalling the pronunciation dictionary didn’t help. Nor did deleting and reinstalling the entire app. I’m running the app on an iPhone 13 Pro Max with iOS 15.2.1. It would be nice to see this corrected if/when you can spare the resources as pronunciation probably accounts for 75% of my usage. Nevertheless, I still love this app! GRMMA for making it available.
A little broken at times
Dirk Lasermaster
In general works well, but a couple of shortcomings make it so that I still have to go to the main website:- No way to look up the long-vowel (e.g. ó) entries. Always gives a blank page.- No way to load additional example phrases as on the website.
Best learning investment!!
sherjo
I don’t remember what, if anything, I paid for this, but whatever it was, it was worth it!! This is such a valuable learning tool for me as I work on learning Irish. I use it constantly as a (necessary!!) augmentation to Duolingo, and my learning experience has become so much richer with additional context speeding up my understanding of the language. Go raibh míle maith agat!!! I do notice the issue with voice files “stuttering” as mentioned by other users, and while it would be good to fix if possible, I am still finding them useful. Again, GRMA, I’d give you 10 stars and all the hearts if I could. :-)
Audio is off
Chicago Dog Mom
This used to be a favorite language learning application but it is now one of the worst. What I liked most was the fact that the app provided audio files of actual Irish language speakers from the three main dialects pronouncing words available with that feature. But at some point within the last few years, the files started “hiccup-ing” the words making it sound as if the speaker is stuttering. This is no way to learn what a word sounds like! I removed and reloaded the app but that was useless. There is no point in praising the other great features in this app because the audio degrades their usefulness. Please fix this for the five stars this app once deserved. Otherwise it is just garbage.
This update from Apple will improve the functionality of this app. No new features are included.
