Learn Swahili Bubble Bath Game for Android
I really loved the app, it is helping me learn more Swahili vocabulary, but the audio is delayed and I cannot get past certain levels because if it. Before I can hear the word in the bubble it is too late. It would be nice if the audio would keep up so I could advance levels.
I was looking for a fun language-related game and decided to try this out. I have never studied Swahili before, and I was able to pick it up fairly quickly. The only suggestion I have to improve the app is, from the perspective of language-learning science, it would be better to have the player match the Swahili word with a picture, rather than the English word, at least for the vocabulary words that are easily identifiable from pictures. For example, instead of learning to match "paka" and "cat", we should match "paka" work a picture of a cat. Thanks, I am enjoying it.
OK, entertaining way to improve basic vocabulary. Looking at the same sunset picture all the time gets a bit tedious, though... and 1 or 2 words are in the wrong category.
This is an enjoyable way to learn Swahili quite quickly. I love the ten different levels and how you can repeat a level as many times as you like. I also like being able to look at my statistics for each lesson. I've found this quite addictive and have got other members of the family learning on their own devices. I can't wait to get through all the lessons.
A great little app. I do wish that the words moved around on the side, I catch myself remembering the position to click more than the word.
Love the app, just waiting for a fix on the 3 second delay when you tap a bubble until you hear the sound after first pae.
Fun method to refresh or accompany learning in Swahili. The different levels and diversity of words mean it will really improve your vocabulary.
I had forgotten how to speak this language know I'm fluent once again
There really is not a better game for learning Swahili.
It's great but would have loved more of the games 2as set up differently
Great for learning new vocabulary without realising you are. Fun and educational
I just started using it...I like it so far!
This app was amazing i learned the language and was holding conversation with in one month
Fun way to learn vocabulary over short periods of time.
Great Just not enough free categories
Great for my children Oh yeah
Asante
very fun way learn
Nice app. Useful for the beginner.
I love it some much
It's nice
Fun and helpful
Amazing
I love the game style learning approach for learning vocabulary. This really is an excellent way to learn how to translate from Swahili to English or vice versa. However I think incorporating images instead of English words would go a long in helping one think in Swahili instead of having to translate. Overall an awesome way to keep your vocab brushed off and pick up some new vocab as well.
I enjoy the app..it's fun and I have learned a lot of vocabulary. On levels 6 and 9 of the Verbs category I get a glitch where it shows the same English verb bubble twice in a row but the second one has the Swahili audio and answer of a different verb instead of the word in the bubble
Although I wouldn't consider myself conversational, I now know different words in Swahili to put together and form a sentence if needed. This goes to my learning style, I just wish there were ways to putting more together with sentences. I'm not done with the entire free version yet, so I'll come back with another review if needed.
Love the concept and the category choices and the learning style are fab. My vocab grew from playing just a few categories. Couple of bugs though: sometimes it crashes completely in the middle of a level (this happens infrequently); sometimes starts playing a level without any of the words or translations, just empty bubbles moving up the screen - can't seem to exit this unless you completely shut the app or just wait for (what would be) the level to finish. Not disastrous, just a bit annoying!
I really like this so far - it's much more engaging than other attempts I've had at learning this language. I've also only just started, but something I would like to see is more conjugation along with verb usage. I know vocab, but I'd like to know how to use it sentences as well! Overall, will recommend this to anyone trying to learn Swahili in a non-boring way
I thought it was a really good help on how to learn swahili fast and get it right easily. I learned alot. I love the backround music!
Immediately hooked with the free version so I bought it. You're not going to learn sentences, but it's an easy and fun way to learn. Great value for the price!
Being a visual learner is a bit hard but this app really helped me get a grasp on the language
This is a great way for my son and I to learn native African language while still having fun.
So far it teaches me well
I'm getting better and better at Swahili everyday!
Great for the basics, would like to see a wider range of words in the more advanced levels.
Can't put my phone down. Even as I lose, I'm learning!
This is really helping me learn the basics, this is just what I needed.
Very easy to use and games are pretty simple yet challenging.

It's a nice little gamification of learning vocabulary. Props for having the pronunciation in sound and not just in writing. One way to add a little smth would be to have pictures on a separate game mode, and have the player connect the pictures with empty sound bubbles - no text at all. All in all a very neat game for what it sets out to do. Definitely recommended :)
