As an active subscriber of both your app and website, I would like to have some feedbacks on the app. In the menu #3 (the learned audio list), there is a bug that I hope you can fix asap. When I play the audios and put them on the automatically play mode with the full play option, the expected play order should be, for example 1-2-3-…, but it always jump pass over 2, 3 and directly goes to 4 (for example 1-4-7-9-…). This is really annoying since I think the learners want to listen the whole story again in order. In the vocab review quiz part, the audio icon of the vocab is so hard to click. It usually takes me 2-3 times clicking on it until it plays. I think it would be nice to be played automatically. Hope you can fix this in the next update! Thank you for your hard work!

There should be English translation

It’d be better if the app could provide English translation like those in the book “Easy Korean Reading for Beginners”
Developer Response
Thank you for your honest feedback! We intended to provide the stories only in Korean to expose you to the language as much as possible while providing the translation of the words to help you understand the texts on your own. However, we value your opinion and we will add your feedback to our feedback report. 감사합니다!
