Latest reviews of IPANow! Italian app for iPhone and iPad
As a singer, I find this very handy. Just put in your Italian text, and out comes IPA! There are settings you can tweak for open vs. closed vowels, etc. you can save your excerpts and print them. Very nicely done!
This app is a handy tool for vocalists, conductors, linguists, and many other professionals. You can paste an Italian text in and instantly see a phonetic transcription. Print, save, and share it easily. Highly recommended!
Easy to use with accurate results!! Highly recommend!!!
Im a singer and I have been waiting for an app like this! Its simple, easy to use and I havent found a mistake yet. Must have for any vocalist. The other ipanows are just as awesome.
This gets most everything right, but is very inconsistent with the most frustrating facets of Italian diction -- open vs. closed E/O and voiced vs. unvoiced z/zz. It has the most basic ones, but not everything.
