Great Concept; Need Expansion
It works beautifully, and it gets you to know a few words very quickly. I like the dual-pronounciation support(both man and woman voice), and the games are stimulating.
However, the price is definitely way too expensive for its content. At $12, it should have a lot more words than the current 200 words or so. Also, the English-equivalent spelling seems to be inconsistent; an "aa" is sometimes pronounced "o" as in "orange", and sometimes as in "hot". The lack of dictionary is another minus.
I don't mind paying $12 for this type of app, but this app definitely needs a lot more content. It's ridiculous when I can ask a taxi driver to turn right or left, but I don't know how to tell him to go straight. This app should have at least 1000 words, which is the required minimum vocabulary to handle everyday conversation.
