Ratings and Reviews
Good, but...
Forvo is a great concept and a useful app. It is let down a little in the execution, as some sound files are quite poor quality with really bad signal to noise ratios. Definitely worth getting for language buffs, however.
Decent app
I’ve used Forvo for years and even willingly have paid for it. This app has some pros and cons. It’s been updated a few times but there’s still some quality of life things I’ve wanted: an easier way to navigate and add/remove favourited words. Hearting and unhearting words is somewhat cumbersome. There appears to be no way to arrange favourited words in each language or sort them. It would be nice if there were a field where you can write in a few letters to navigate towards those favourite language tabs. It would also be nice to have this when adding a word as scrolling down a hundred languages is slow. These would especially be useful if you have words in many languages.
Lately, the app is freezing and crashing within seconds of you doing anything. Sometimes you can add a word or do what you wanted but it is notably less stable than it was.
Really hoping there are crash reports!
A game-changer for foreign language pronunciation: simple but brilliant
I recently came across this great app that has transformed my French pronunciation journey. As a language learner, I've struggled with understanding the varying pitch and tempo of native speakers. However, this app has proven to be an invaluable tool in my language learning journey.
The simplicity it this app contradicts its effectiveness. The app has a unique feature that allows native foreign speakers to contribute their pronunciations, giving learners like me the opportunity to focus on the pronunciation that resonates most with us.
One of the biggest challenges I faced was grasping the nuances in speech when native speakers talk. But thanks to this app, I can now listen to similar words or phrases spoken by multiple speakers, allowing me to pick up on the subtleties and intricacies of the language. It's truly awesome!
Whether you're a beginner or an experienced learner, I believe this app is bound to enhance your foreign language pronunciation skills.
