Latest reviews of Standard English Player app for iPhone and iPad

Very good software
Please keep updating!
I use this app everyday to study English and love this because this was frequently updated and kept fresh. But recently it seems to be updated just once for a few days and is getting less useful... Please keep updating the news to use app as long as possible!
Great app
I teach English as a Second Language and I think this is a great little app for my students to download news that they can read offline while also listening to the synchronized audio with it. For a one time $2.99 fee they can comfortably bring VOA news (for free) with them wherever they go. I think it could be made even better if they let you control how often it can delete the files and the developer told me that feature would be included in a future release that is coming soon. Developer seems open to feedback and suggestions for future releases :)
Its good.
If there is download file list and we can delete files from this list, it will be perfect for me.
its good for English learner.
It is very helpful to improve your english. The developer updates this software frequently to make it better. It would be perfect if the price can be a little bit lower.
