Only American Accent
It was fun. However, I got quickly bored of the lack of content.
PROSThe app is immersive, has good animations, is intuitive and you feel guided in your learning. In addition, it has different learning games.
CONS1) Elsa does not have a British accent setting, which is why I have stopped using it. 2) The layout of the video pages leaves little room for the video itself, and it does not allow for rotating the screen to enlarge the image. 3) The learning games are always the same. It would be good if they were autogenerated from a database of words, like Duolingo. That way, the user could return and do the old exercises without going through the same words and phrases they have practised.

Elsa the best app for learning languajes.
With Elsa I have solve all research problems that I had. It was tough for me understand a scientific articles without using a dictionnary. Now, with Elsa is the opposite. Everything is clearer for me.
PROSElsa is a wonderful app for learning english Because, before knowing Elsa, I have had a bad pronunciation and the worst intonation. But now, with Elsa, I speak like a native. I have a better understanding of learning languajes. I have no fear to speak with an American, a Canadian or an Australian because I feel that I become strong in English. The main features of this app that I love so much are: pronunciation, intonation, learning of new words. Let me say to you that the two first features(pronunciation and intonation) are the key to become an english speaker. I recommend highly this app to everybody who want to speak like a native because Elsa has broken all my bad habits in learning english. Now, I speak confidently.
CONSPronunce a word or a sentence several times when it seems difficult for the app understand what I am saying. Because, I feel and i listen that I pronunce very well the word, but Elsa,sometime has some difficulties to understand it. You can work to make Elsa better in this aspect.

PROSWhat I paid for the lifetime package is reasonable and my skills, especially pronunciation get improved by practising everyday.
CONSThere are several tracks recommended for my practise so sometimes it caused me confused with the appearance.

So far so good with this Elsa speaking
This is good for me as I can practice it whenever there is free time for me and the speech recognition along with replaying my speech is the best feature in this app.
PROSSelf-learning with interactive communication was very helpful for me and this Elsa speak gives me feedback on my speech which I thought it wouldn't be possible without off-line teacher. Speech recognition looks it works for me so far even sometimes I doubt how it would work as it just points out the same pattern over and over.
CONSAs I mentiond in the pros I feel sometimes the speech recognition gives me the same feedback. However it's not easy to find a way to improve it in this app and I think I need to get advices from teachers on the pattern. I saw the app has a community to find a teacher but I don't think they would know my progress in the Elsa speaking.
Reasons for switching to ELSA Speak
I had to schedule with a teacher and it was getting more expensive if I needed to practice more time.

A useful application
I'm teaching students to learn pronunciation so the speech analysis is excellent.
PROSThe speech recognition is excellent that I use every day. I also love the dictionary and lessons of ELSA. I've recommended this app for many of my students and friends.
CONSI do hope that the dictionary can be used offline.

Awesome product
loved it
PROSI loved the automated training programs. I've done them all and would like to have more like those (with the 7 steps & test in the end)
CONSI would love to see how to stress and do intonation everywhere like I do have feedback on the pronunciation. I'd also love to have feedback on the stress / intonation

Program that allows speech
I like this feature, which is quite successful in detecting and evaluating sound. When I record my voice, it scores my pronunciation and I can listen to it again until it's correct. I can easily listen to how to properly voice over.
CONSI think the program was created only on sound and pronunciation. Besides, I am lacking in writing and reading texts. Perhaps, while so much infrastructure has been developed, the program can be divided into larger English sections. There are some parts that are wanted to be done in a day, these can get boring after a while. Therefore, it should be more diversified.

Best learning way ever
The software corrects me immediately and I get immadiate feedback. The videos are also cool, previously no one could explain and illuastrate me, how to form sounds. As Englisg is not my mother tongue, these explanations help me a lot in my improvement.
CONSThere is only one thing practiced: eg. when I learn the "th" sound, I get words/sentences to pronounce, but the software focuses only on the "th" sound, while I pronounce incorrectly the other parts of the word.

Elsa idvidual user!
Overall, Elsa is one of the best apps that add value to users and increase their knowledge of English! It is recommended if you want to learn English with an accent.
PROSI have seen progress in learning English as a second languageThe App overall is easy to useThe app helped me to score a high rate in General ILETS
CONSThe app is full of features, and I wish there were a dashboard that reflects the progress with weak areas.There are no interactive achievements.

A good app to improve pronunciation
The most important function of this app for me is the correct recognition of sounds and the evaluation of how correctly they are pronounced (with recommendations for improvement). Of the apps I've tried, Elsa is the one that recognizes sounds correctly.
CONSUnfortunately, sometimes there are still problems with sound recognition. So you can continue to improve the engine responsible for speech recognition. Sometimes it is not clear what exactly is wrong in the pronunciation (not enough comments, how exactly to correct the pronunciation of the sound, how the language should be positioned, etc.) The app has added videos from Rachel's English channel, but sometimes it is not enough.

Best Speaking Practice App in the Market
ELSA is overall excellent. I make all my students download it.
PROSELSA provides you real-time feedback on your pronunciation and teaches you how to fix whatever is inadequate. It’s is just perfect.
CONSThe app is a bit inflexible when it comes to accents — native speaker accents — and also connected speech. Sometimes in spoken English some Ts are dropped for example. But if you drop them while reproducing a dialogue, ELSA will mark you for it. Therefore, it needs room to foresee variation of native speech.

English fluency starts here
I do like the way how this App evaluate what sounds or which pronunciation needs improvement. I like the quick assessment that creates a personalized courses and lessons for user. Day after day using this App, I feel more confident to speaker English in proper way.
PROSIt is so interesting App to start with to evaluating real English level then keep working on language skills on as Word Stress , Intonation, Fluency, and pronunciation to the perfection as native speakers besides the vocabulary and grammar.
CONSActually, I have nothing to say in this section, I've found that app by chance and I do love it day after day.

Quite good but with some bugs
What I like the most is the ability to see our progresses as the days go by. I learn to have a very good pronounciations and fluency...
CONSBut the league system is very not accurate... I mean, I used to play to have a good score until someone reach 40K points in 6 days... How this can be possible ??? Speaking like a robot or repeating sentences over and over again because the app doesn't recognize all words and syllable is boring and stressing... Sometimes, I have to quit exercice because it doesn't work properly even if I "force" my word to be clearer...

What else, Elsa?
Generally ok but, after a significant engagement, in the beginning, I felt like "ok... what else, Elsa?"
PROSI liked the general appearance of the app: beautiful and easy to use. the speech recognition function has been surprising the first time: it helped me a lot to understand that, even micro differences between sounds, can change the meaning and the effectiveness of my speech.
CONSAfter a couple of days, I understood that the "type" of exercises were almost the same 3-4. Different content, ok, but not having new kinds of exercises made the experience less challenging every passing day. I would prefer to access new exercises when reaching new levels of the "game". The speaking exercises, for example, after a while reading the answers purposed by the software, could become that I have to answer the question in the dialogue, inventing the sentences myself.

Amazing English language AI couch in your phone
The app is brilliant! It helped me to correct my pronunciation mistakes in few months. It never happened during my 10+ years of learning English in schools. I'm happy to get closer to the native pronunciation every day. I like the most the feature of selecting a certain word and exercising just it. The app is absolutely great!
CONSI do not find any cons so far. Maybe some integration with real teachers live could be introduce to enrich learning experience.

Can improve your english skill.
I can improve my English intonation and accent by using this apps. I can track my wrong accent very easily.
CONSit would be great to choose options of English accents like the USA, the UK and so on. This is because I’m studying IELTS and I want to improve speaking ability more. So, if you give me choices to study British accent or States accent, this app can develop more.
