Customer Reviews
Feature Request Please
Phraseology is pleasant to use. It is simple and has a lot of great features. Phraseology counts sentences you've written, average words per sentence, average syllables per word and many others. While these are useful and helpful features, I would appreciate an additional feature which not only counts the average syllables per word, but counts the syllables as you are typing them and displays those statistics alongside the words as you type them out. For that reason, and the fact that it was free, I downloaded it only to find out that the app was underdeveloped and was not functioning as it should. I was very disappointed. I am writing this review in the hopes that the developer will review and consider incorporating the feature that I have mentioned in my review. Thanks so much!
