Howjsay App Reviews

Latin phrases, medical terms, expressions in foreign languages, this app pronounces it all.

English pronunciation has endless variety, but it’s nice to have a standard of comparison. I hold this app in such high regard that I happily paid the modest price even though the free web version suited my needs adequately.

Used the app. for various purposes, especially for translation and pronouncing — as apps come and fade, this one is my top app over the years.

Greatest app I have! How did I live without it! Thanks Just got home.

Difficult to understand and not clear. Sounds slurred. Contains most of the words I looked for. I did not find it much more helpful that looking the word up in the dictionary.

I don’t know why, but I probably use this app more than any other app on my phone. It’s really handy if you want to be sure you’re not flubbing a word and embarrassing yourself.

Absolutely indispensable app! Every thinking person, without exception, should utilize it for spell checking.

This is one of my go-to apps that I use all the time. I’ve always hated not knowing the pronunciation of a word, and now I wonder no more. Thank you!

I like this app because words pronunciation is very good in comparison to others. I recommend this app

I read a lot and there are often words that are rarely used in day to day speech but frequently used in print. It is really helpful to know the correct pronunciation in case I wish to use the term in the future.

Been using the Howjsay app for over a year, it works great every time!

I absolutely love this app!! I'm taking time out to write a review because this app has become essential. I use this app leisurely and academically just about everyday. I have and will continue to use this app and recommend it to others. I don't even bother with other dictionary apps and it helps me to pronounce pharmacy words for work and school. I appreciate and thank you for making this app!!! Just one suggestion, it would be great if I could create folders for different groups of words (e.g spelling test, top 100 in pharmacy school, SAT's etc).

Very handy app.

This app has proven time and again to be so very helpful in pronunciation of difficult biblical text. Makes you so much more confident when speaking to a group. Thank you for this resource!

This is my go to app for help with words and their definitions!!!

The info presented led me to believe this has both American and British pronunciation. This has only British pronunciations. Useless in US. Upon closer look, when I didn't find the American pronunciation I found it has only British and American spellings of the words!! In my 40 years I have maybe come across 20 words that are spelled different and I am not sure why would that be of any importance any way.

I have used this app for years, and continue to frequently use it for advice on pronunciation. I have settled many an argument with this app. I can't recommend it highly enough.

Very helpful app! It has lots of words, even the ones which are rarely used or very specific. Love it!

I'm a voice-actor and use this app nearly every day. I've tried others, but this is efficient, quick, and accurate. I particularly like the way they give both American and British pronunciations when when the dialects differ. Siri can almost always DEFINE a word or phrase for me, but this app actually allows me to HEAR it. I wouldn't be without it. have to admit though, Siri definitely sounds sexier… --Bob Barnes

Use it frequently, most helpful!

Shouldn't everyone know how to pronounce, for example, the name of the leader of China, Xi Jinping and the capital of North Korea? You cannot, "join the conversation", if you don't have the ability to pronounce the words you want to say.

Incredibly helpful app, use it daily. Couldn't live without it, THANKS!

Unfortunately, I was looking for American pronunciation; but it appears this app is mostly British. This should have been disclosed in the description of the product.

The person pronouncing the words has a British accent. I don't and I would rather have an app Weather words are pronounced with an American accent.

Fast way to learn how to correctly pronounce a word.

Very helpful!

Great app! Very handy as I'm s professor and public speaker !!!

I absolutely love this app I have been using the website on my computer for years to study for an annual spelling bee this is absolutely awesome. Lanie in Florida

This program is awesome it helps with all pronunciations and definitions too... helps with medical term. Engish and much more

I find Howjsay extremely easy to use and helpful.

This app provides of a wonderful help when it comes to learning the proper way of pronunciation.

Is it just me, or does the speaker have a slight British accent? It is confusing, might delete the app.

This app is the best that there is to learn pronunciations and the history feature is the best !!!

A life-saver in my line of work ! I strongly recommend it to language specialists in general and interpreters in particular !

I've used this several times per week for perhaps four years. Mostly I use it for wine, cookery, literary and historical terms. It's a great tool for expanding spoken vocabulary.

I love this app, this app helps me so much in my reading and studying,I have such a greater understanding of what I am studying in my attempt to understand the subject

I absolutely love this app. I homeschool my two children and we read a lot of books, so it's wonderful when we come across a word that we aren't quite sure how to pronounce to be able to open this app and immediately find the answer.

This app was awesome when I was taking a medical terminology class. Knowing the correct pronunciation of words made it so much easier to remember terms and definitions.

I use Howjsay on the daily! Words that I haven't understood the full meaning of or new words are always found in this app. The entomology feature has solved a lot of friendly arguments between myself and friends about the origin of certain words. Can't live without it!

This app is amazing. I find myself using it anytime I see or hear a word that I'm not sure of the pronunciation or definition. I can look it up in the moment and grow in my understanding and competency!! Very valuable tool.

Lo utilizo sobre todo al leer artículos donde leo palabras, para mí, desconocidas. Simplemente genial!

I use it all the time! A must-have!

It's great

This app is excellent, and has prevented me from making a fool of myself many times. Occasionally there is a word not found in their database, but it is fairly comprehensive, even giving alternate pronunciations if they exist. It is a favorite, reliable app. (would give 5 stars if database were larger or if there were an option to request a word be added)

I love this app and wish every talking head/actor/public speaker would use it religiously. It's perfect.

This app is good for starters, but it's not the best . There is still room for improvement , especially on sound pronunciation. I would love to have the app work offline as well.

This app helps you avoid embarrassing mispronounciations.

I think this app is good for speaking great

When reading I often come across words I don't know how to pronounce. This app lets me know and my reading flows onward.

Thank you How J Say for pronouncing words that are vital to my vocabulary
