Read a few of the reviews:

The conversational tone of the app and sequential nature has really accelerated the learning process for me, and the supplementary educational elements concerning Thai customs, history, and other points of context show that the developer really understands that learning a new language is really inseparable from encountering a complete culture. -mmrrkk

Checked out many apps but this is the first app which really takes you through lessons step by step... easy to follow and easy to learn. -Ralf

This app is absolutely excellent. I speak 4 other languages aside from Thai, and thus far this has been one of the best overall language apps I have seen. It’s extremely thorough and written in simple, non-technical language so even absolute beginners can make sense of a very difficult language. The quizzes at the end of each lesson are great too! -Tokyo Teacher

Been in Thailand for 9 years. On and off learning Thai and this has been a great help. I feel it explained the rules to me very well and made it easier to read more! -jr7diving

Which version of Pocket Thai is right for you?

Pocket Thai Master contains 38 lessons and teaches reading, speaking, and culture. It is ideal for serious students and anyone living and/or working in Thailand for 6 months or longer.

Pocket Thai Speaking contains 22 lessons and teaches the most important aspects of speaking and culture. Ideal for travelers and some long term visitors that want to learn the basics without a major investment of their time.

__________

What Pocket Thai Master is NOT:

This is not another app made by a company that gets a list of the most common vocabulary words in 20+ languages and creates a bunch of apps with simple picture/word matching games.  I spent years living in Thailand and studying Thai including reading many grammar books, creating and reviewing thousands of flashcards, and having lots of conversations with friends and acquaintances.  This app contains lengthy grammar explanations and cultural nuances that other programs don't include, because their authors probably don't even speak the languages of the apps that they create.

What’s New

Version 4.0.0

Pocket Thai Master is now completely free to use! Thank you to the thousands of users who purchased Pocket Thai and good luck on your Thai language learning journey!

Best Thai Learning Resource I’ve Found So Far

I’m just getting started learning Thai, and this app, despite its modest trappings, has proven to be easily the most instructive, well structured, systematic, consistent, and humane approach I’ve found (short of soliciting training from actual live teachers, which I haven’t done yet).

The developer clearly put a lot of love and thought into this, and has a clear knack for structuring the learning process in a way where the systems and rules of thai are laid out consistently, and explained with both clarity and precision. The transcription system used here also makes more sense to me than any of the others i’ve encountered so far (some of the others really bear no resemblance to how the words actually sound in Thai as far as i’m concerned!).

On top of all this, the conversational tone of the app and sequential nature has really accelerated the learning process for me, and the supplementary educational elements concerning Thai customs, history, and other points of context show that the developer really understands that learning a new language is really inseparable from encountering a complete culture. All of this has been very welcome for me and has accelerated my learning process.

I don’t normally write reviews when prompted by an app, but this one was very polite in making its request. This app is not only a clear labor of love but also simply the best I’ve found so far for helping me learn Thai.

Developer Response ,

Thank you so much for the kind words and it's great to hear that you're finding the app to be effective for learning Thai! If there are any features that you'd like to see or critiques that you want to share, please don't hesitate to shoot me an email and let me know.

Best language learning app i’ve ever used

I bought this when I wanted to learn a bit of Thai to speak with my uncle and cousins more easily. I’m still learning and need to be more diligent with my practice, but this app has been an amazing study guide. The content is both clear and thorough. I like the cultural and historical context as well as the mnemonics for learning characters. i look forward to practicing and improving!

Sound error that can hopefully be fixed

I’ve just started this app and I’m enjoying it, but the problem I have with it is that after so many times pressing on a particular sound (to re-listen and understand it), I go on to click other sounds for other consonants and vowels and the sound doesn’t show up. I have to constantly get out of the app and re-do my lesson to make it work again. The problem only works temporarily though before I have to do the same process over again. I appreciate the app though but I don’t know how to fix that error.
