HOW SURE ARE WE
Not in any grossing chart, so this comes from ratings growth (7.0 new ratings a month on average since launch): revenue grows with new ratings, more slowly for apps that collect ratings fast. Tested on 418 apps with verified revenue: typically off by about 2 times, and big earners tend to come out low. Countries we don't track (and Google Play in China, which doesn't exist) aren't included, and neither are ads or web payments. Gross revenue before store fees.

Bugs, things not working24%

46 of the 1 and 2 star reviews.

★★★★★ I don't know why but the basic play button on a pronunciation word doesn't do anything. You press it, it goes around in circles and then stops. No sound. Surely this is the first thing that should be checked. I'm…
★★★★★ Keeps glitching on the terms and conditions.
★★★★★ Would like to use this app, but after signing in with my Apple Account, the screen goes white and there's nothing you can do. Happens on both an iPhone 13 and an M1 iPadPro.

★★★★★ This app seems to be a terrible waste of money.
★★★★★ (I won't, obviously, but such was the level of frustration this app engendered in me!) Don't be like me; don't waste your money!
★★★★★ Honestly I downloaded and bought it and lost my money, it's a nothing app, too weak additional its ux ui design is pretty bad, not user friendly and very slow.
Worse after an update9%

18 of the 1 and 2 star reviews.

★★★★★ I loved this app for a long time, but a few months ago an update caused it to start working, and I haven't been able to use it since.
★★★★★ The last update was from 2 years ago so maybe the company is no longer in business.
★★★★★ Needs an update for iPhone.
Lost data, sync, backup6%

★★★★★ Eventually deleted app and downloaded again.
★★★★★ Honestly I downloaded and bought it and lost my money, it's a nothing app, too weak additional its ux ui design is pretty bad, not user friendly and very slow.
★★★★★ I just paid for the app and immediately deleted it - you have to create a login, password etc.
Wrong or poor results6%

11 of the 1 and 2 star reviews.

★★★★★ This app produces no audio on my iPad, nor my iPhone, which makes the app useless.
★★★★★ Do NOT purchase-useless on an IPhone.
★★★★★ Keep saying “oops something wrong” Took $2.999 and the APP is waste of time!
No customer support3%

6 of the 1 and 2 star reviews.

★★★★★ The app's support link leads to a nonexistent page on the developers' website.
★★★★★ I wanted to support the developer because I like and have used the Forvo website for years, but it has become heavy with ads and other junk.
★★★★★ Support was no help and not informative.
WHAT THEY ASK FOR
  • would be great to have an option to disable autocorrect in search bars 4★, Sep 27, 2026
  • Needs an update for iPhone. 2★, Oct 13, 2024
  • The second time opening I can usually type the word I'm searching for BUT if I hesitate or don't immediate add a space after the word I've typed, the auto suggests some other random word and THEN freezes. 2★, Aug 9, 2024
  • But if I quickly add the space then it usually works well enough. 2★, Aug 9, 2024
  • Needs a serious update. 3★, Jun 2, 2024
  • It crashes and needs an update. 1★, May 30, 2024
  • So there are bugs that need to be worked out, but this would be great if it actually worked. 2★, May 22, 2024
  • There's no clear reason why you should have to sign in on the app before doing *anything* when you can search for and listen to words just fine on the website without an account. 1★, Oct 12, 2023

★★★★★ Intuitive search features and snappy response!

Looks great6%

10 of the 4 and 5 star reviews.

★★★★★ The app has good coverage of the one language I have used it for (Italian), but the user interface is still pretty crude.
★★★★★ - UI is not that user friendly
★★★★★ For those of us with Keyboards attached to our iPads, please let the interface rotate into Landscape mode.

★★★★★ I can't understand why customers are upset with this app. Many aren't pleased with a few trivial things involving the app, but it works practically as efficiently as the website! If you want to test if this app is for…
★★★★★ Great app. Audio works just fine on iPad 3 and iPhone 5 (both running iOS 6.1.3).
★★★★★ Not sure why the negative reviews. I have an iPhone 4s and can clearly hear pronunciations. Extremely helpful for learning correct non-English pronunciations. Highly recommend.

★★★★★ - signup process is not smooth, errors
★★★★★ It is quick and has worked without glitches so far.

autocorrect

very useful app. would be great to have an option to disable autocorrect in search bars

★★★★★Aug 27, 2026
No longer usable

Update: The latest review fixed the problem!! Thanks to the devs! **** I used to love this app but after not opening it in awhile I tried to use it recently and it won’t play any sound clips. I can search and find words but when I click the play icon it spins like it’s loading then doesn’t do anything. iPhone 15, iOS 26.3.1 (a).

★★★★★Aug 23, 2026
App Is Working Again

Thanks for fixing the app! It now works again, as expected.

★★★★★Aug 2, 2026
No longer working on iPhone

I loved this app for a long time, but a few months ago an update caused it to start working, and I haven't been able to use it since. iPhone 15 user, so it's definitely an app issue.

★★★★★Jul 4, 2026
Location required

Another cash grab. You can’t listen unless you sign up, can’t sign up without giving your location under the guise of “we need to know your accent”. I’m not interested in recording so you don’t need my location. One’s location is not a def indicator of accent either. I live in a mid Atlantic city yet there are people from the south, the north, the Midwest, other countries and they all speak with their native accents yet they live here in my city. Bogus.
