Was very excited about this app. overall it is great but sometimes the mic doesn't work to pick up what you are saying and then it just keeps failing you. at first I thought maybe it was me not saying it right but then on the name Jimin it wasnt picking it up which is an easy name to say. I have had it happen frequently enough to make me not want to practice every day. without the glitches this would be the best app for language learning.
Reviews for Teuida: Learn Languages
Was great, then it broke. Loved the app, worked great for awhile but then it started ignoring settings and stopped being able to access the mic. The app has permissions set, but it still complains about checking mic settings, i also tried to set it to manual mic mode to see if that helps, but it didn't change the setting so it still tried to auto trigger, and couldnt access mic...also the message it pops up to tell you the mic isnt working stays on screen for way too long
Teuida is a pretty good app to practice speaking Korean but lately I've had some issues with the microphone . i dont know if its because i switched phones (had an iphone and switched to a samsung) but for some reason the mic has been acting strange (like it doesnt register my voice even though im speaking slowly) which is weird because when I had my iphone it wasn't a problem. I dont know if the problem is on my end or not but overall pretty good app
I'm having similar issues as others. I'll be sailing through a lesson no problem and then suddenly it can't pick up any of what I'm saying. I've found speaking very loudly (yelling) and clearly, one syllable at a time, fixes the problem temporarily. Meaning yelling at my phone for one sentence, and then it's fine for the next few. It still has issues with certain words though, for example I have to say "금-요-일-은-어때-요?" If I separate 어 and 때 when I'm yelling to reset it, it won't pick up "어"
This app was awesome until lesson 3 of Japanese. if I had only done the first two lessons I'd be giving this a 5 star. But, this app is all about speaking and it just doesn't recognize half the words in lesson 3 no matter how many times I try. As much as I want to keep learning using conversations like this app does, the technical issues are causing so much frustration that I'm getting no value from these lessons anymore. I checked online and I'm far from the only one saying this.
Overall, the app is really great. It helps you learn Korean and other languages, but one thing that really frustrates me is that whenever I say a word in Korean through the mic, it doesn't really pick up what I'm saying. It keeps making me repeat the word over and over again. But the rest of it, yeah, it's okay. But I really hope you can fix this mic problem.
At first, I was nervous to learn Korean because normally I struggle with learning other languages and having to learn a whole new alphabet scared me, but the way they explained Hangeul made it extremely easy to remember and learn! I Absolutely loves this app and HIGHLY recommend to anyone trying to learn Korean. I love the little story conversations that go with it to simulate a real time conversation, and I love the review and repeated word/phrase practice! 10/10 app!
This app has been wonderful from a teaching perspective and it deserves better, but I have to echo the frustrations of other reviewers on technical issues. The mic rarely recognizes short words no matter what, and it will sometimes display the correct Hangeul when I speak but not give me credit. In addition, lately I've been having more frustrating issues like the review exercise repeatedly closing itself on the last word and not giving me credit. I can't recommend paying for this without fixes.
I really like the app for learning Japanese. I have been taking it on or off for two months now and I am able to retain what I learn because I do the practice along with the lessons each day. For some reason though, I can't get the app to give me a point for the vocabulary of "6 things", no matter how many times I say it "muttsu". This is why I give it only 4 points. I wonder if anyone else has this experience. I hope the future patches will improve this issue.
I love this app! I've only been on for 7 days (free version) and i can hold basic conversation and can introduce myself fluently. I feel after a month, I'll be really good at speaking. Teuida is an amazing app, but there are only 3 languages to learn. Hopefully, they'll add more someday and this app will rise over Duolingo!
