Learn Italian - Free WordPower for Negative User Reviews
✓ No daily word audioHave been using this app for several months and advancing in learning new words until the audio stopped playing. Customer support was very helpful but in the end I had to reinstall the app and now at the beginning again repeating words already learned. Despite this problem like the app very much..Version: 4.8.1
✓ Needs to have Disclosure on using your data planI woke up this morning and there was this message on my phone to update to the full version. Who the heck are they to use my data time without my knowledge. I think that any company that does this SHOULD be made to put their HIDDEN feature in there information so as to give full disclosure of their product. I have deleted this app and will NOT use any of their apps in the future, good or otherwise..Version: 3.2
✓ They do mean "lite"This app is marginally useful. It occasionally reminds me of vocabulary I learned in Italian class and has on five or so occasions over the last year and a half taught me a useful word. However, many of the words that are released to the lite edition are names of places that (unlike some important ones) do not change in Italian. I keep it around more because of inertia than because it's actually worth having. After a major update failure killed its usability for almost a month (but fixed the again-broken Notifications, much to my amusement), the new update begs you to review the app. Hopefully this will teach them not to ask for things they shouldn't want..Version: 0
✓ Useful vocab appVery nice app, update has now fixed the startup bug but sometimes still plays wrong sound file..Version: 3.0.1
✓ More than 1 word would be good.Perhaps the number decided by the user....Version: 0
✓ WordpowerltAt first I loved getting a new word each day to learn but once you upgrade it no longer happens. Also the main thing that bugs me are the recorded voices they use. One woman speaks slowly but the two other women speak way to fast. Sometimes they mispronounce the words. It is very difficult to understand. Would recommend finding another app if you want to have this type of learning..Version: 3.2.2
✓ FeedbackWould be more interesting if more words were given daily,it would then make you purchase additional criteria for this ap.Version: 2.4
✓ Interestingly softMy kids are very motivated to learn a new language via Ipod touch now. The max volume is still too soft. I have iChinese, it's very loud & clear. Good stuff!.Version: 0
✓ Not Worth ItEven for free I do not recommend. For the asking price of $0.99, I definitely would not purchase. 1) PROMO VERSION - This lite version is really a sample of their expensive $9.99 version. Both versions are overpriced. This should be FREE always and the pro should be no more than $4. 2) ONE WORD DAILY - Not helpful if you want to build vocab. There are better apps that have vocab flashcards grouped by category or an audio phrasebook for better comprehension. 3) UNTRUSTWORTHY - This company has a reputation for errors. I have 2 different apps that have mistakes with gender article concordance, wrong or mispelled words, & non-native translations. 4) BAD CUSTOMER SERVICE - No response to email about correcting errors. Update to fix mistakes seems unlikely..Version: 0
✓ Very poorAll apps from this developer seem to be riddled with problems. Do yourself a favour and look elsewhere..Version: 3.0.1
✓ Unacceptable appDO NOT download this app!! I did so and then decided I didn't want it and deleted it. Fair enough. But now every day I wake up to a notice that "another word is available in WordPowerLt." Leaving notices active after deletion of an app is UNACCEPTABLE!!! I still haven't been able to figure out how to rid my iPhone of the effects of this app! DO NOT support this type of malware programming!.Version: 0
✓ Hardly usedI've barely used this and when I have used I felt it could be better.Version: 0
✓ Good application.(V2.1.1)Does what it says. If you are looking for simple word-a-day vocabulary, this is for you. I have not had the problems of the other reviewers; however, a caveat regarding updating: Make sure you back up your vocabulary lists, as after updating another language program, I found it had DELETED an entire year's worth of words... Now I'm more careful. I will be updating soon, and will rate again after..Version: 0
✓ Disappointing!!!It's definitely not the best!! Wanted to give the 'no stars' it deserves but you have to rate at least one?.Version: 4.1.1
✓ Unwanted notificationThe recent update doesn't allow you to turn off the 'new word' notification, and that sends an annoying text at midnight every night. And, in attempt to get the # in the red bubble on the app icon to go away, I went thru the full word bank to look for the new word - nada. Please fix this. Pretty please?.Version: 3.0
✓ RecordI like your program. I do it on my IPhone 4sG. Sometimes the record feature will record my pronunciation and sometimes just background , like my TV . The record button is very unstable and turns off before you can say your word. The recorder just keeps malfunctioning . To bad, it is needed to practice. You should really address this problem . I would like to purchase your full program but will not until this issue is fixed ..Version: 4.0
✓ Good, but has A few issuesI've taken Italian courses several times and in general I think this is a good app. It does need some proofing...as the Alphabet chart is truncated so the the right side is cut off and you cannot read explation for each letter. The accents explanation is riddled with typos where the tried to shoe an accented letter e. it shows up with a keyboard glotch each time -A@, instead of é. Some of the vocabulary words are no brainers as well. They give Italian named food and places which are the same in Italian and English. Why not give generic terms like beach or potatoes, not Amalfi Coast and spaghetti. Otherwise it's free version is a handy tool to learn the basic language, its history and the geography of Italy, with some useful phrases & words. The Record feature is a nice addition to play back your practice pronounciation..Version: 4.0.3
✓ More for fun than for learningI enjoy it. Has had a few bugs that they have fixed. Makes me angry if the word is something like "email". But it's fun to see what the word is each day and use it all day long. Besides, it's free so can't complain much. Have no interest in buying the full version..Version: 0
✓ Recording could improve...I like the idea of getting a word a day. Recording your own attempt to repeat the word is great too, but the recording can be hit and miss, often not catching the whole word or phrase, which can be frustrating..Version: 0
✓ BAD upgrade-My word bank was erased!I have enjoyed this app and have found it efficient though quite stingy on the words. Basically, a new word is "given" to you every day. If you forget to download it, you miss that chance. But I had been quite devoted, downloading almost every day and accruing a large list of words (200 to 300) and then I upgraded-my ENTIRE list vanished overnight. I love some of it's features-but erasing the word bank is a deal breaker..Version: 3.0.1
✓ Very good but..........I would give this 5 stars if it gave you 10 words per day, at one word a day progress is too slow. I would pay for the full version if it gave the gender of nouns, it is very frustrating having to look up a dictionary all the time, especially for nouns ending in -e where you can't guess the gender..Version: 3.0.2
✓ ReviewWhen the iPod has hiccup and need to be restore you lose all you collection of words this application need to synchronize with the computer better. Also if it had freases like I see you tomorrow and thinks like that it would be a lot more useful..Version: 0
✓ Still lameDownloaded during the week, only had one word on it, we were sent another word but you can't get a feel for how good the app could be. Will be deleting it..Version: 3.0.2
✓ Bring back random words at mixed levelsWe used to look forward to the random word and phrases of the day as it made it interesting and then it was great in class to know the unusual things no one else knew! Now each new word is predictable and way too basic, so my friend and I don't bother looking any more. Was a great app before it became the same as all the rest..Version: 4.1.1
✓ Dredsman44Overall I think it's a good application to start with... A new word everyday is great for increasing your vocabulary! My wife and travel to Italy often and it's amazing how much I've retained just studying on my lunch break everyday,but you must be diligent about learning. Now I'm not saying this my on tool for studying the language but it's a great start at learning a word a day! I recommend it..Version: 0
✓ I can only get one word;(I can only get the word 'orange' and it won't go the next word. It's an ok app if it would work.Version: 0
✓ Drains Battery and Sound Quality is PoorI downloaded this app and others from the same developer, each night at midnight it alerts me that a new version is available. I have turned off the setting in the application but still receive the notice every single night. This drains my battery so that my calls are cut off in the morning. I went into every app and found that only two have a "setting" tab to control the message "New Word Power Lt Available". I will be deleting this and all other apps from this developer since I need my battery to talk to people and not receive messages that cannot be controlled correctly by their apps. I plug in my phone before midnight now to save the battery life. The playback is poor at best, most of the time the sayings are cut off in the middle of a word unless you play the saying or word back more than 6 or 7 times; by that time it is too frustrating to continue onto their other apps..Version: 0
✓ Learn Italian ReviewThis is an attractive app for learning Italian, I am half way considering buying the full version. I'm not too sure if I completely understand how the app works, I'm not sure if it even does work properly. I should be able to click upon sentences an it should put the word I'm learning into a few sentences BUT it doesn't let me, not all the time... It's buggy, however I do like that it allows you to record your voice and compare it to the native speaker, this is something I've not seen in a few other learn Italian apps. I like the layout of this app too, it looks pretty. I don't like that it's buggy, surely all words can be used in a sentence? I don't like missing out. This might be worth buying (IF IT WORKED) I'm not buying it just yet though it's too unstable....I'll think about it a little bit and might fork out the £4.99 next week. SORT OUT THE CRASHES!!! It infuriates me that you have something that looks good and could work so well but falls short due to its ridiculous instability. The FAQ of this product/app alone testifies to its failure to deliver what it sets out to do, IF I paid money for this I too would be disappointed with my purchase. I hope this brief review helps anyone make an informed choice I=MC2.Version: 3.1.1
✓ Could be much much betterThe idea of this is to learn words but it needs a little (a lot) more imagination with the words. Basic words most people know but do we really need to be told words like: no, Berlino for Berlin, autobus, calendario, CD for CD, jogging, manager, computer, zebra, ketchup, parco, ornitorinco for platypus. The list goes on. Please let us have some words we can use and not the exact English word..Version: 4.1.1
✓ Was good, but not anymoreThis app was great until I upgraded and lost my entire word bank and the new word notifications stopped working even though I have it set to let me know. Lost over 6 months of words and now I can't even be notified of a new word for the day. Not good. >(.Version: 3.2
✓ Awesome Vocabulary Learning Tool (revised)(Revision based on April 2015 update) This app used to work great. Then the update in April 2015 came. Now my daily words do not come over, even when I have a notification of a new word, the app keeps requiring additional downloads for multimedia files and it just appears glitchy. Hope the fix it soon. I really enjoy this app as a vocabulary building tool. I love the flashcards; and the ability to repeat daily the previously learned words helps lock them into memory. The only reason this app did not get a 5-star rating is the flashcard option for random order causes the app to crash. They tell me they are working on the fix..Version: 4.5.1
✓ Poor file namesI have installed several of the WordPower Lite applications for different languages. The problem is that on the computer, they are all named "WordPowerLt 1.2.ipa" regardless of the language. When more than one of these applications is installed, then your hard drive will be filled with a bunch of files named ""WordPowerLt 1.2.ipa", ""WordPowerLt 1.2 1.ipa", ""WordPowerLt 1.2 2.ipa" and so on, regardless of the language. Even on the iPhone home screen, all the applications are just named "WordPowerLt". After opening an application and viewing the Info for each application, every one of them is just named ""WordPower Lite V1.2". This is just plain lazy and sloppy. Developers should not get lazy with file names. The name of the file on the hard drive and the name of the application displayed on the iPhone should all be the same as the name that is displayed in iTunes..Version: 0
✓ Useless and worthless.I did everything what they say about opening a new account twice, but still I can't get in. It says that that user name and email already exists and nothing here is for free for sure..Version: 3.1.1
