iPA Phonetics 4+

Add feature to filter charts by language

Could u potentially add a feature where u can change the chart to only display the sounds from a particular language. I’m studying specifically English sounds and it’s difficult, especially from a beginner perspective to distinguish English and non English sounds

Nearly perfect

This app exceeded my expectations. I got this app just because I wanted the audio for IPA sounds, but found videos which can have the playback edited, as well as a fun and helpful matching game.

My only criticisms are minor, and those are:
1. The interface, though very functional, could benefit from some more organization (for instance, the matching game is not distinct from the general playback area, and only serves to as a tool for confirmation).

2. It would be nice to be able to be able to choice a language and have only those phonemes from that language be accessible, so as to make things more simple and goal-oriented. Also it would serve as a helpful visual.

3. It would be nice also to be able to loop videos, or to choose your own pair of videos to loop so that you can choose a contrast of sounds and really get to know the differences.

However, these suggestions are minor, and this app does what it claims to do, and does it well.

Thanks for all the great suggestions. We will try to incorporate some of these in the future!

Love!

This app is amazing. It has so many more sounds than a regular IPA app/chart. I really like being able to see the different views when the sound is being pronounced. I'm a linguistics major and I did use this frequently in my phonetics class. It really helped me memorize the less used and/or non-English sounds.
The only problem I have is that if I zoom in to the consonant chart, it sometimes makes it so I can't press any of the characters in the bottom row. Other than that, it's a fantastic app!

Thanks for the kind words. The latest version should allow you better access to that bottom row.
