Pros and cons of Grammar Express: Active & Passive Voice app for iPhone and iPad

Grammar Express: Active & Passive Voice app good for

Used the app to prepare students for grade 11 final exam where writing in the active voice was mandated.
Versatile, flexible, easy to use and itll definitely teach you the English Grammar. If you are stuying language, its a must have. If you are studying anything else....... you should till have. If you are ride the bus every day or the train or the plane and have some downtime to study, this app is for you. Many features and very easy to use without bugs make this app well worth the purchase.
I would highly recommend this app to everyone because its really educational.......... needless to mention about the content in it. Its very helpful to learn the rules of Active and Passive voice. Its just GREAT for studying. Ill probably ace my test.
This app is fantastic way to learn the rules of the English Grammar.i really liked the idea of how they gave you topic-wise lessons and and tests with explanation and lots of examples. One of the best thing of this app is that it teaches you that if you are wrong in answer it gives you the explanation of this question. Another bonus was that it shows your progress in topic so i could evaluate my progress. Other than that, this has been one of the best investments i have made on my iPod touch thus far! I am really very happy with this app and looking forward for more such type of educational apps. So many thanks to the developers who made my learning very easy and interesting. God bless you guys!
One of the best app ive seen ever. This app really rocks. Thank you to the hard working people who put this fine resource together and the content that fills it.

Some bad moments

All the examples & questions are going from active voice to passive voice. Nothing for going from passive to active voice. It is usually frowned upon if you write in passive voice. Only in certain cases passive voice is favored. In most cases active voice tends to be clearer. The app needs to be able to go from passive to active. I would not suggest writing entirely in a passive voice, especially in academia (except for research/lab papers where it is more accepted). If the change is made to incorporate both styles, it would be a solid app.
