Spelling Alphabet App Reviews
Other languages would be nice
Nice Application thats doing exactly what it sais. It would be nice, if you could switch to other spelling alphabets.
Very handy program to have in your dock when quoting serial numbers, postal codes, etc. over the phone. Ive found myself having to repeat and try really hard to enunciate when the person Ive sent a series of numbers and letters to reads it back and its not correct. Very good value for money.
Work fine, 2.99 for the upgrade?
The application is nice but 2.99 for the upgrade is just too much greavy I would pay 99
Cute but what does it aim actually?
It cute but I still couldnt understand its usage area.
Great little app, nothing to crazy, but super helpful if you have to work thru automated systems. Get info over the phone on case files and other things.
This app works. The idea is good too. I use it as a trainning aid and to refresh the mind. Having Drag and drop is nice too. I would like to be able to print out the text and Alphabet Chart tho. Its simple and work good. Thank You to the publishers.
This App does exactly what is says it does without fuss or clutter. Its very useful to have on hand if youre trying to spell out an address, or something, over a bad telephone connection.
I often have to call Tech Support for certain programs I have and always have to give a long serial #. Now I dont sound like an IDIOT making up my own words for the letter portions.
This is a nice application, but I really hate the icon! I decided to uninstall it to help my eye. Please change the icon into a Mac style, if you have a time to improve your product. Thanks.
Simple, but effective.
Works well, but being able to speak the letters would be helpful.
Great for people who only occasionally use the NATO phonetic alphabet. Useful for communicating serial numbers, model numbers, and other information required by technical support for products and services, just to cite one use. The speech-synthesized voice has little value. It speaks far too slowly. The pronunciation is not correct. For example, in th NATO alphabet, “Lima” is pronounced “LEE-MAH.” This application pronounces it “LIE-MAH.” “Oscar” should be pronounced “OSS-CAH.” This program pronounces it “AW-SKER.” Instead of pronouncing “Victor” as “VIK-TAH,” per the NATO pronunciation, it pronounces it “VIK-TOR.” There are other examples, but suffice it to say that it’s just wrong and misleading.
as a ham radio operator, this app is amazingly simple and it’s a fun way to remember all the letterings phonetically. great application and it’s even fun to stump your friends who may or may not be as knowledgeable about the code as you are. peace and blessings in jesus name.
Simple, does what it's supposed to do
Never had a problem with it, everyone should have this on their computer even if you're not a ham. Ever have that problem trying to get someone to understand you or spell something over the phone? Get this and spell it the right way. :)
Perfect for what it does
Great for speaking with airlines and making sure the PRNs are accurately communicated!
Does Exactly What it Says
Love it! :) SO helpful when Customer Support or the Order Desk doesn't understand what you're saying. Type is large enough to read even with one hand on the computer keyboard and the other on a pen and the phone between ear & shoulder. One Request? A saved short list of 5 frequently used words. I'd use it for my last name, my street name, my email address ...
Good attempt at a useful app
Love the concept, and what is here works well. What I would like to see to get 5 stars would be the ability to supply my own word list. I am associated with an organization that uses a different wordset, and if I could add MY wordset to this app, it would be awesome. I also understand that is a lot to ask for a free app, but, still, would make this pretty close to perfect.
Perfect
Help a lot with Customer Service Reps
To The Point... Tango Tango Papa
Excellent, simple, non-intrusive. Good learning tool. Speech portion is not important, at least for my use. Thankyou to the developers.
new review
still analyzing but so far so good.
Basic and Simple
Just needs a Quit button to remove it from the menubar without having to click first on the gear icon to reveal a pop-down menu.
Simple and does it well
This is the phonetic alphabet I learned in the military and some modificiation options / settings for mondern times too.
Super Handy
I've given up on actually memorizing the alphabet, so this is indispensable.
Simple and useful
Simple and useful. No issues
Great program !
Just what i needed for getting my ham radio Technician license.
Outstanding!
This is sucha a simple app, but one than can be of great value. I am very glad I took the time to download and check it out.
Smart fun tiny
Love this clever app that does a simple thing well
I ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS APP!!!
I have been using this App for several years and feel that I cannot live without it. I use it on a daily basis due to my job. It has made my life so much easier!
Best App:
Just got this app. and with all the off-shore help groups this is great for clarification. Great Idea folks! AAA
perfect for what it does
Perfect for those times you need to spell something over the phone, but you are not a trained FAA air traffic controller :)
Great app but needs updates
Great app but hasn't been updated in over 2 years. Would be 5 stars if updated more frequently
love it!
it is great to learn and say things properly when someone needs me to spell it
Phonetic Alphabet
I'm a starting Ham Radio opperator, so being new to using the Phonectic Alphabet, this is a must have.
Would Pay for More Features!
It took a suprising amount of time to find a sutable offline NATO converter for the Mac. Aa functions as such, but also offers support for common substitutions (David, Italy, London, and Washington). I greatly apprecite this application's existance, would pay for its continued development, and would absolutely love a more indepth tool for title case alterations, randomization, etc. Thank you!
Good app and well integrated
It is very fast, integrated into the top bar at all times. Helps a lot being on the phone. Programmers have trully done a good job. Could use a history - or frequently used - since the address and names are typically typed over and over.
great little app, does exactly what i need.
great little app, does exactly what i need. the app is stable too i don't recall it ever crashing on me.
GREAT!
This little app works as expected.
Small, fast and exactly what you need when upgrading your flights or asking for status
Great little app, nothing to crazy, but super helpful if you have to work thru automated systems. Get info over the phone on case files and other things.
awesome application
as a ham radio operator, this app is amazingly simple and it’s a fun way to remember all the letterings phonetically. great application and it’s even fun to stump your friends who may or may not be as knowledgeable about the code as you are. peace and blessings in jesus name.
Genuinely Useful, but Speech & Pronunciation Flawed
Great for people who only occasionally use the NATO phonetic alphabet. Useful for communicating serial numbers, model numbers, and other information required by technical support for products and services, just to cite one use. The speech-synthesized voice has little value. It speaks far too slowly. The pronunciation is not correct.

Works well, but being able to speak the letters would be helpful.
Great Idea!!! Perfect for Calling Tech Support
I often have to call Tech Support for certain programs I have and always have to give a long serial #. Now I don't sound like an IDIOT making up my own words for the letter portions.
A Simple App that Simply Delivers
This App does exactly what is says it does without fuss or clutter. It's very useful to have on hand if you're trying to spell out an address, or something, over a bad telephone connection.
Not a bad idea
This app works. The idea is good too. I use it as a trainning aid and to refresh the mind. Having Drag and drop is nice too. I would like to be able to print out the text and Alphabet Chart tho. Its simple and work good. Thank You to the publishers.
