Customer Reviews

Best app ever!!! (5 stars)
More accurate than any other app I've seen.

Great Help!!! (5 stars)
In my independent study of Russian, I was picking up the written language quite well, but was having difficulty with the correct pronunciation. This app was AMAZING in it's ability to convey the correct way to say things. It's worth way more than it cost.

V2.5 = Great!!! (5 stars)
This is great update!! Really appreciate it and hope to see more added as time goes on. It would be cool to see a favorites option, maybe a way to say one word at a time, or other ways that translations may be used in conversations. Best Russian translation app hands down! I have 16 apps at least :)
