Language Lab 4+

I down loaded the app because I bought my son the workbook. It would be nice to hear how to pronounce the words as a part of the learning process to make sure you’re pronouncing the words correctly!

This app has a lot of potential but someone really needs to work out the kinks.

*The scrolling is horrible. The app basically scrolls one section at a time and it’s very frustrating.

*Your progress is not really saved. It’s supposed to save but there appears to be a glitch making it hit-or-miss. I also wish there was a shortcut to pick up where you left off rather than locating it through several menus

*The book I purchased, Easy French Step-by-Step, is not listed anywhere in the menu. I was really hoping for an audio accompaniment to the book, especially after seeing this app advertised in the back cover. Perhaps it is there but the scrolling is too glitchy to locate it.

*Sometimes the audio does not work and sometimes you hear multiple strings of audio played all at once

Please take the time to refine the app. It would be so helpful if it were working properly. I know it’s a free app and all but I would honestly be willing to pay a few dollars (a one time, small, flat fee) if it meant the app was streamlined and fully functional.

update: found another bug. revising to only 1 star as there has not been a single update in six months

bugs:
1. sometimes the back buttons after completing exercise does not work in the following screens
2. sometimes the first card may show blank if you touch it twice to translate it back
3. sometimes not possible to push missed it on the last card

requests:
1. my book "basic spanish" suggested this app, however there are no cards in it for my book. please add basic spanish

2. it has a lot of helpful cards, but it only gives you a question and answer, does not let you interactively choose, please add choosing answer option

3. does not pronounce for you, this is a major flaw. please add sound

4. please indicate which exercise was done last in the long exercise list ( so I accidentally dont choose the one I just did)

5. and last, but not the least, I cannot stand the casino play and music at end of each exercise, it is annoying as hell, how do I disable that? please remove completely!!! or at least let me disable it in a setup so I dont have to see it again.

6. update app more often. Wrote this review several months ago and still not a single update

7. sometimes I translate w another word than the one used. I have no idea whether I was right or wrong when I see the answer. not sure how to improve, Maybe you simply need a comments page for every card, and make the app more collaborative!

thank you for reading!
