This was the most beautiful, simple, and useful Hangul learning tool I've ever used. You do need Adobe Air. It's a program that allows developers to write programs like this one and users must download it to use the developer's app. Think of it as a catalyst. Unfortunately, The developers havent been working on it lately, so its not available on the latest apple products. Also, Adobe Air is no longer available. I highly appreciate what this app was. Thankful for this app while it lasted ❤
The app required you to install adobe air as well to work. problem with that is adobe air is not compatible with all phones. devs might want to work more on helping the app be a more independant one. Anyways...being able try it, is a good app for beginnings with the cute and interactive character!
Although the app is not up-to-date for current Android systems, this used to be a great app. Excellent and fun way to learn Korean vocabulary. I truly wish they went updated to be compatible with newer android systems.
It says you need Adobe Air to use the app, but Adobe Air is no longer available on the app store, making this app unusable. It sounds like a very good and helpful app, but without Adobe Air, you cant use it.
It is very easy to learn with. It did require Adobe Air to run it, but all I had to do was click install that. It is definitely worth the extra download!
I really would like to give this app a try, but it says I need Adobe AIR to open it & Adobe AIR does not seem to be in the google play store.
Not available for newer devices without Adobe Air and Adobe Air isn't in the marketplace anymore so you can't use the app...
It downloaded an extra app that changed my lock screen and has advertisements pop up on my phone.
Can't use the app without adobe air. Can't download that app, because it's not available in the store anymore
Not available for my device. Also needs Adobe Air which isn't available anymore.
this isnt a review but the only way for this to be seen is if i set it low to get this as a critical review, yes this is a good app but you can easily get a adobe air apk online so can you shut up and use your head instead of complaining about the app when its your own problem that you didnt think it through
It is saying I need Adobe Air... I wish it would work... I was looking forward to using it.
Great for tongue & air placement when learning the hangeul alphabet. Thank you.
The app isn't working and i can't find the adobe!!
i learned korean in one day with this app thank you so muchhh
Requires Adobe Air? I'm not sure what that is. I'm on android...
Please update your app so we can use it. Thank you
Need Adobe air to use the app which I don't have.
can't open without Adobe air
i can't used because it is saying that i need to adobe air installed
It is not working !!
I can't use the app without adobe air ?!
Cons: the music that is supposed to be in the background is too loud and there aren't any settings to turn it down to better hear what is being taught. There is not a play button to hear the whole word or statement pronounced. Needs to have ftont facing lip shape added for individual letters. The pros: shows tongue position, and mouth movement to make the letter sound, is interactive, can hear the syllables individually.
the good: memorable pronunciations of each character, unique art style (helps to memorize characters), hilarious animations for each phrase, fun music, history & background to the korean language. the bad: categories not only are written in Korean, it seems to make no difference no matter which one you choose. VERY IMPORTANT: the words/phrases taught aside from very few are USELESS, being names of pop songs & artists :/
This app provides the basic sound system of Korean which would be great for the beginners. I love the visual articulation of sounds and how to make a syllable by putting Consonants and Vowels together. The one thing I don't is the background music while I'm doing the rhythm hangeul because I can't hear the sounds of Consonants and vowels very well.
This app is really helpful but I can't give it five stars due to one major problem; the background music. I can't hear the pronunciation over the music which makes it hard to learn. Add a feature where the music can be turned off and then you'll have five stars.
Didnt take long at all to become mostly familiar with characters. Before I knew it I was sounding out every character I saw. This app is really great! I also have three suggestions that after the word is complete it is shown in regular hangul in plain font, and an all together, fluid pronunciation of the word is said at the end before moving on to the next word, and more common useful words. Please consider and thank you for this great app!
This helped tremendously with my hangul memorisation. The fun visuals and audio made something which requires repetitive practice much more bearable. Only wished there were more words to practice with, because I had so much fun :)
I really like this app. The only issue I have with it is that the background music is so loud, I can't hear the pronunciation when I am forming different words. If you guys can lower the background music a little bit it will help me be able to understand bettet and I can give you a full full five stars.
You will need to find and download an apk file to install Adobe Air for this to work. But once you do, it works great. It works very well with great animations, smart groupings and easy repetition.
