French in a Month: Vocabulary App Reviews
Not good at all
This app doesnt work at all, its completely useless and doesnt make sense … Learning frnech with this app is impossible
Gives you words and pictures to go along, but at times, you dont even know what the picture is a picture of,and the words are in french; so you dont know what it is trying to teach you. And in the first lesson; for the writing mode of this app, it has an error. I try typing "un garçon" and it keeps saying error. ehhhhh, there are probably better ways to spend your money.
I have upgraded my OS to Mountain Lion, and my French.Spanish and Italian App no longer work Pls let me know when the fix will be ready and I will re do the rating
The apps great. Its really easy to memorize the words when you both hear&see them. I had some troubles with writing tasks - all these french special signs drove me crazy - but eventually I managed it. Ive got also Russian in a month app on my iPhone with the same study method, and even there the writing part was easy for me))
The techniques used here in this app are very similar to Rosetta Stone. They are truly an excellent way to learn, and most of all, retain the information! Unfortunately, there is an issue with saving ones statistics (display of correctly/incorrectly answered questions) along the way. The statistics simply do not record the way they are supposed to, therefore, the user cannot get a sense of his/her progression or decline with the presented material. I noticed the last update was in August of 2012, hopefully this issue will be addressed as soon as possible. This application would then be a truly great resource for anyone wanting to speed their progression towards fluency!
There seems to be an error with this app. I just downloaded it and was completely startled when it let out incredible loud beeping sound- like a smoke alarm. It seems to have an error with the audio because it makes the sound when it should be speaking a phrase for the lesson. This is a serious bug that needs to be fixed or else its pretty much unusable!!
In the “ABC” option for the lessons, there is no way to enter an accented E - as in, Un helicoptere - there are two accented e’s… can’t enter them… pretty stupid thing to omit….
