Latest reviews of Korean Language Guide & Audio Plus - World Nomads app for iPhone and iPad
The full version has only 1/3 more than the free lite. I wouldnt say its worth it.
If you are looking for a better Korean Phrasebook App, then look for the Lonely Planet one (600 phrases) , best of all the Lonely Planet one allows you to Search for a word and list all the Phrases with that word. This App does not have a Search tool. Also, who does not put a Phrase for "Bathroom/Toilet" in the Basic section.... like "Wheres the Bathroom/Toilet" or just "Bathroom/Toilet". I found "Toilet" in a different section. This is an OK App as a backup to the Lonely Planet App.
The phrases seem to be arranged in no discernable order, with overly simple ones next to long complicated sentences that no language learner would ever be able to say successfully. The hangul font is too small, and there is no way to resize it. The language lesson is too long. It does not work as a phrase book, not as a dictionary, not as a language textbook, not as a study guide. But it trys to include minor parts of each. The net result is a waste of time and money.
