Tjack921,
Grrr I should have read closer
I was on the website where they have English Spanish and German, so thought the app would have German. Nope, it doesn’t. Yes, it says that in the description. My bad. But still really annoying. I hoped that I could count on it being updated with German someday, but apparently the latest update was 2 years ago, so figuring it won’t. Dang it.
Update to add the animations of the voiceless stops and fricatives have voicing - “tuh” instead of “t” etc. This is terrible!! At least the videos are correct.

Not what is was Too Bad
I used this site in the past and purchased the app hoping it was going to be similar to the desk top version. While it offers more languages, I don’t care for the app version. Everything was on one page per sound on the desktop version. I could see both the animated and live model version. It provided a profile and head on view. So much better before. Now, I have to jump between various pages and in the process lose the students attention and just not as effective.
I will use it because I paid for it but may opt for other visuals

eglantina S,
Needs improvement
I used to love this site because it would give you a list of words examples for each sound . Another downside of the app is that it doesn’t show you the sound for the complete word , rather it breaks it into parts but I want to be able to hear its pronunciation in both forms . As an English language student and linguistics student I find it a bit problematic not to have enough examples . Please make the app quality as good as your site . A big thanks though for all the good work you have already done .

Great App for Graduate School
I love this app!! I am a graduate student for speech and have used this app many times to double check place, manner and voice. The app is very user friendly and straight forward. I love the video examples in animation as well as the real life videos of people making each phoneme. The app is also visually pleasing with clear colors of each anatomical structure. A great tool during my schooling.
Giayi,
What happened to the website?!
I used to frequent the sounds of speech website when I was a SLP student. It was amazing and now doesn’t exist for English anymore and this app isn’t as good as the old website’s content. Why remove such a valuable resource for students and practitioners? Such a bummer
cycle-eug,
Don't buy this!
I was hoping this app would have all the features of the original web version. It is a very poor imitation. The web intro is misleading; it makes one think that Spanish phonetics are included. The fine print says not, but it's not a good practice to mislead.
Also, the app version has this confusing, non-standard notation of IPA symbols (not in brackets, as if they were letters), and what I presume are letters as subscript. This notation is not explained anywhere that I can find. What is a beginner to make of this?

Great Teaching Tool for English Teachers
I teach English as a second language. The combination of 1) video, showing a close-up of a face pronouncing the sounds, and 2) animation, showing a side view of the inner workings of lips, teeth and tongue, makes this a wonderful resource for my students.

Wish pause and slow motion were options
Love the idea of the app, I just wish I could pause the animations or view them in slow motion. My apraxia and dysarthria patients often require extra processing time, slowing it down would help their concept transfer!
Alan～,
Awesome work
It would be way better if add the fluctuation of recording to compare the difference.

Great app
I love this app! I wish that there were more languages, but I use it all the time.
