Pronounce Words - Hear it 4+

Recording feedback is extremely faulty

Caution to English learners: The feedback for the users' pronunciation recording does not function correctly. Words pronounced with completely incorrect emphasis (such as aNIM'l for AnimAL) and words prounounced with a long vowel when it should be a short vowel and vice vera (such as SKEEN for skin or TRAN for train) are all declared correctly pronounced by the AI in the app.

I cannot speak for the other languages; perhaps they are more accurate, though it's unlikely. As of Nov 22/24, the voice evaluation aspect of the app is nearly useless, not to mention dangerous, as it could lead the learner to repeatedly practice saying a ton of words wrongly!
This IS likely to improve with advances in AI though, so it may be worth checking back on later.

As for the app's pronouncing of words, it uses the very basic computer voice that kind-of says words correctly but just barely so. As a native English speaker who teaches ESL, I even have trouble understanding it somewhat. It's just not a sophisticated voice model. Perhaps the developer will upgrade it though.
