Write It! Russian 4+

Positive:

It is very useful, a requirement even, for anyone looking for a simple way to learn to write in Russian.

It is the only app of its kind that is fully free and does not have some letters locked behind a pay wall or subscription.

There is an option to watch one ad to be ad free for the rest of the day. Just one ad daily makes for an easy learning experience without interruption.

Negative:

There are times when letters are marked incorrect even if they were written correctly. It isn’t a major problem as one can still learn what the letter looks like, regardless of whether it is marked right or wrong.

Conclusion and final note:

I recommend this app to anyone who is trying to learn or memorize written letters. Don’t be put off by the reviews that suggest that beginners aren’t ready to learn script. Learning the alphabet is far easier than it seems at a first glance and learning script is a necessary part of it. Russian is not written in print letters, only in script unless it is typed and printed. Start your lessons with an open mind and you’ll find that it isn’t as difficult as it appears to be to the beginner.

Edit: The feature to watch one ad to remove them for the day has disappeared after the latest update, but I still consider it to be a five star app. The ads aren’t particularly long, inappropriate or intrusive to date and the benefits of the app outweigh the inconvenience.

Breaking up the Russian alphabet and allowing me to memorize sounds and symbols while having me write out each letter has proven to work very well for me. This app is perfect if you wish to learn the Russian alphabet in a timely manner. On a side note, adds are present but not excessive and I will always gladly deal with them for a good app like this.

I think this app is very, very helpful. But, it does have one tiny con that I think everyone will be okay with.
I love how natural the voice sounds. Some apps make the voice sound too robotic. A very robotic voice makes it difficult to learn, well for me at least.
I am a little annoyed that this app has you write what I believe to be the cursive version yet quizzes you on the keyboard version. I believe this is because you're supposed to be lightly familiar with both versions. I didn't know a thing about the Russian language and I didn't have a problem with this small con.
I am learning two other languages and I can gladly say I will be able to rely on their other apps. I hope you found this review helpful.
