"So I started learning Russian not long ago. This app helps me a great deal in doing so. It lists the most commonly used words and gives a translation and pronunciation of these.

Pros and cons of 1000 Most Common Russian Words app for iPhone and iPad

1000 Most Common Russian Words app good for

I really was impressed, it provides good base to learn russian. Congratulatios :)
A helpful app for learning Russian. Possible areas for development would be the means to save and title favorite word lists. Another feature I would like would be the possibility of having the audio of a favorite list to play on a continuous loop (so that you could repeat each word after the native speaker to practice pronunciation)
Excellent! Just what this virgin speaker needs. Well done. Spasibo!
This app gives an explaination that is easy to understand and makes it so simple that you sometimes wonder why it took so long to grasp it. Buying this app is money well spent.
Every once in a while you find such an app: already the screenshots and the description are to the point but when you open the app itself, you feel that the developer must have a crystal-clear mind (already the statistical approach of top 100 words is nice): well structured, content-rich, doing exactly what you expect it to do. The menu is intuitive and easy to understand - nice surprise for me are the extras like the Russian alphabet and grammar infos - very useful. The app might find more buyers if you would add German as a translation language (besides English and Spanish) - I believe you will find a lot of interest here!
This app is awesome, very helpfull. Im trying to learn russian and this is the best app so far, and the only help anywhere.

Some bad moments

Worked great for a couple of days, then started hanging on the opening page, with nothing but a message saying it is "loading". At the time of writing has been like this for over 24 hours. Considering I had to pay for this app, this is very poor performance. Ive only given one star because it wont let me give zero stars. Update - 4 days later its still hanging. Tried force quitting it. No change. Terrible.
Very poor audio quality! Its even difficult to understand words pronunciation! This way its almost unuseful.
Easy to use. Once downloaded, dont need to be online. Great help with pronunciation and alphabet. Your choice, dont need to be linear.
Great app! If your reviewing and want to work up to being able to read a newspaper or a menu then this will work!
My grandma was teaching me Russian but she passed away before I was fluent. This is a great way to learn and brings back fantastic memories!
This app could be great, but is missing a lot of functionality. No flashcards, the sound volume is very low, only 100 favorites, and Ive had to reinstall twice in one due to the app freezing. Also, the word numbering isnt the same as on the website, so you cant look up the work in a sentence on their website. This list is really useful and what it does is great, but the app is extremely buggy.
