I like this app a lot. Although, the option to exclude some learning activities does not work consistently. For small kids, removing writing/reading activities is fundamental, so they can focus on pictures/sounds. Apart from fixing this bug, I'd also like to have an option to remove numbers (for the same reason mentioned above). Thanks!
Great app. When I first started out with it I didn't know as much Gaelic as I do now, but I found it unbelievably easy! Somehow I knew most of the corresponding words and images even in cases where I had NEVER seen words like that before! To some it may come off as a literal 50/50 pick-and-see, but if you take some time and look and think carefully, you actually see how the word fits the picture. That said, I still stumble now and then, but mostly on the written questions👍🏻👍🏻🇮🇪
This is a fantastic app. Developer disappeared. Grab it quick so it's in your library. Developer used to make a number of languages, but as with everything else in the last two years... stuff disappeared. Grab it quick.
very good hopeing it has some updates in the future to add more level,s or maybe even some simple frasses only complaint,s would no explanation of the spelling and some of the images are vague leading to the meaning of the word being unclear
I love this app, it's perfect for beginners. Tidy and comfortable to use, it's allowing me to acquire some familiarity with this beautiful, complex language pretty quickly 😃 Thank you, developers!
Great little app. The starting block of something good. Recommend English translations and more titles in English.
Easy to use. Clear. However, it doesn't mark grammatical gender, which implies it doesn't exist. Putting an article before the noun would help this (an chearc, etc)
Good visuals and audio for learning nouns. Not sure if it goes into phrases or conversational topics
best free app yet. Great! little bit more help with the typing of said word or picture name, even hints. otherwise great app
It'd be great if it went over the language better instead of just throwing things at you that you don't understand. I am gonna remove this.
Great app! It would be nice if it had the gender or plural forms in some way.
Just wish it was more clear which dialect is what. Im taking a guess the last bubble under region of settings is ulster
If you could add a feature where you could look up what you wanted to learn
Great for using when I am out and about with no wifi access-
Very limited, but still helpful.
It's not bad.I was looking for a different irish game but my mom found this app and I tried it and it was pretty good.
not quite so clear. I would like to see updates. But good effort. thanks.
Great app. No excuse not to learn Irish now!
I'm irish and didn't know how to speak proper irish so I used this
Stupid how learning if you have to guess the word
I like this app. Learning my language
Great for familys to learn Irish
Its Nice!!! Thanks!
Have they changed the words since my day?
If your irish you know the answers like the back of my head
I already know Irish so it's ok cuz I live in Ireland so I'm Irish
Love it
There should be an opinion/mode where all you hear is the word in Irish and you must pick the correct answer (word). The idea of teaching irish through play is a great idea, but it becomes to easy to just recognise the spelling of the word (which is still a good thing, if you wish to write in irish) rather then knowing how to pronounce the word itself.
It's amazing and I've been looking for an Irish learning app like this for ages! I would like it even more if you could pick specific words to study so that i can focus on the ones i dont remember that well (like that, when opening the list of the words in a chapter, you could disable some of the words)
Good app though it could be more productively better. If you were a total beginner and you got 3 answers wrong before you reached the mark of 20 it does not give you time on the screen to look at them before it goes back to the beginning again which is progress draining and time consuming. Some of the facial expressions could mean any thing which hinders a beginners progress also. Fix this and you get the 5 stars. A fun app all in all.
