Without buying premium version can't use after a few days
This is rubbish 🤔 it has stood working lately though i redeemed
Awesome and useful
in fact, It was terrible😕
It is useful
I believe the number of common phrases in this app (which is widely used) is high compared to other apps I checked in the google store. That's the reason I payed for it. However, there could be even more of common words. I feel like Im finishig it up sooner than I expected.
It's very useful for people who wants to know and learn most commonly spoken english phrases and expressions , i really liked it but one thing i would suggest to improve the app adding pronunciation part and more slangs could make it perfect!
It should be offline as well.
Love it!
Best
