Description

*** One of the best educational apps of the year - Apple (iTunes Rewind) ***
Now learning to speak & read Italian from your iPhone or iPad is a total cinch. With 9 addictive games designed for essential vocabulary & conversation skills, MindSnacks’ Italian app is perfect for adults, kids, students, or anyone brushing up on their Italian before taking the grand tour d'Italia.

Instead of tedious flashcards, our app is packed with entertaining games specifically designed to tackle the most common challenges associated with learning Italian. With lessons built around word gender, plural forms, and how to use -ARE, -ERE, and -IRE verbs, it’s fair to say we’ve optimized, or rather awesome-ized, the Italian learning experience.

Download the first lesson totally free and if you crave more Italian, upgrade to access all 50 lessons and 40+ hours of content. That’s more than enough to fill the entire Roman Colosseum (we double-checked).

* WHAT OUR (SUPER AWESOME) FANS HAVE TO SAY *

“I got this app to help me learn as much Italian as I could before a two week vacation to Italy. I'm currently over half way done with my vacation and the app was a huge help!”

“I found Mindsnacks (from the comfort of my pillow) by doing a web search for ‘best app to learn Italian’....Within 15 minutes I had learned to count to ten (AND I also knew how to spell the words).”

“Great app!! Fun and makes it easy to learn! Well worth the money!”

* THE SCIENCE BEHIND MINDSNACKS *

At MindSnacks we like to keep it fun, but we’re serious about learning. That’s why our Italian app includes 9 challenging games designed by Ivy League professors. Each game teaches a specific aspect of the Italian language, creating a well-rounded learning experience for both kids and adults that goes far beyond basic vocabulary flashcards.

Of course studying is only worth it if it works, so our unique algorithm reinforces the learning process using proven methods from the field of memory studies. Over time, the games adapt to your individual performance, selectively repeating Italian words, phrases and grammatical points with which you’ve previously struggled. In other words, as you learn Italian, the app learns about you for a more effective learning experience.

Perfect for beginning and intermediate learners of Italian, Mindsnacks is like a helpful new Italian teacher that fits in your purse, pocket or ever-fashionable fanny pack. You’ll quickly become less reliant on that Italian dictionary so you can focus on more important stuff like booking your trip to Venice.

Needs To Be Updated, Useless Now

I really enjoyed using this app to refresh my French and learn Italian on my own but... I can’t use it anymore. When are we going to get an update for the current software? If I’d known the apps would be obsolete so soon after buying the entire language pack I would have bought something else and saved some money and frustration.

I feel smarter already--Great App!

4 1/2 stars really. This is a fantastic app for learning Italian. It's intelligently designed and it's got games that keep you interested and motivated. The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is that it "graduates" you to the next level too quickly. If you haven't learned everything 100%, you're forced to go back to multiple menus each time you want to review--which wouldn't be too much of a problems if you studied the previous lesson all in one go. However, I like to use this app in short bursts on the train, so every time I reopen it, it resets to the level it 'thinks' I'm on and I have to remember what lesson I'm really on and go back through the screens.

I feel like this could be easily solved with a button that comes up when you've mastered a level and asks you if you want to stay on that level or proceed to the next.

Overall, it's great and I use it a lot. I would definitely recommend this app to anyone currently trying to learn language because it's fun and keeps you engaged!

Dear all the people complaining about the in-app purchases

Well what do you expect? There was obviously going to be a catch. It even said under the title "Offers In-App Purchases." Some people call them deceitful. The whole freaking point of there being only one free lesson is so that you can test out the app and see if you like it or not. Besides, $4.99 seems like a pretty good deal for an extra 49 lessons. It costs about as much as a dinner at a fast food place. There are more expensive programs out there, this seems like a good deal. I personally love this app. I am building my vocabulary and spelling skills.I can always buy a
separate app for grammar rules. Anyways, love the app. If the developers could add Danish, Norwegian, and Swedish that would be amazing.
