First things first. I love this app and I find it very useful for learning Thai. I do have some suggestions though. My first suggestion would be for the romanized Thai to have the written Thai as well instead of just the romanized words. This may help people who want to familiarize themselves with the pronunciation and writing of the Thai script while having both the romanized and Thai script available. Similar to how the chat boxes are set up with both the Thai script and romanized Thai. My second suggestion would be to fix the chat boxes. I’ve noticed that the chat boxes are kind of all over the place sometimes with a mix of both formal and informal Thai and to me doesn’t make sense. If you’re having a formal conversation, then should be all formal Thai. Whereas, if you’re having an informal conversation, then should be all informal Thai. Other than those two things, this is a great app to study Thai from. I look forward to future updates to this app in hopes that it continues to have more lessons and levels for Thai in the future.

Its good so far. REALLY nice feature is the ability to rapidly toggle on and off the roman alphabet (english letters) pronunciation. That shows a deep understanding of the process. It forces one who is already familiar but not yet literate to practice reading the Thai words in context while allowing us to toggle it on really quick to either help when stuck or even just verify what we think we just read. I’m giving it 5 stars now for that alone and for the ease of use. I’ll rate it again later after using for a month to see how useful and in depth it actually is. I’m really hoping this could be the push i need to get reading more than just signs and short simple statements already. I’m hoping the in app content is large enough to be stimulating for the whole course of the year subscription.

Asian languages are hard, difficult to teach proper sounds and structuring of a sentences. The app really pushes full sentences right away. Which is fine, but if you are unable to pull words from your memory you don't understand the question. There is no way to click the word to see its definition nor a access point to search for a words meaning. So if you miss the question it won't even tell you what it was suppose to say, you just fail without understanding the sentence at all. Meaning you'll need to exit the app and find the meaning or go back to another lesson to find it and figure it out in that sentence. I'm completing lessons without fully understanding it because there's no access to understand it fully or show why it was wrong / English translation. If I miss the sentence it should at least show up in English what it was suppose to say so I put the words together to understand what each one was suppose to be. Although a word bank / clicking the word would be much more efficient for the price I'm paying monthly.

Overall, I really like the app. The game-like approach to learning is really helpful. I also like the fact that I’m able to learn speaking as a female. I’m assuming that men get a different interface where the first-person is as a male. Pimsleur didn’t do that and it was very hard to use. My only complaints are relatively small. One, the “streak” is perhaps using the time zone of the origins of the platform. I bought my iPad in the U.S. but I’m learning in Thailand. I can’t ever get a streak going even though I practice daily. The streaks are supposed to be an incentive. Instead, they are upsetting. Two, it would be nice if the dialogues could be repeated line by line. Last, it would also be nice if the dialogues would not throw new words in or gave those meanings above the words or at the bottom of the page.
