Customer Reviews
Not good for trying to learn
I've taken this app to a couple of Thai teachers and the voice recognition for tone is off. Try making a non-native speaker get anything other than 'low,' 'middle' and 'falling.' Taken it to many people and it's impossible to register 'high' and 'rising.'
Also needs explanation on how to achieve tones for non-native speakers-- which is the entire aim of the app, so it is self-defeating.
