Utilizing a descriptive qualitative approach, data were collected from 10 pre-service teachers in an English education program through the use of questionnaires and structured interviews. The results of the questionnaire were analyzed using descriptive statistics, while the interview data were analyzed using thematic analysis. Findings reveal four main themes: (1) Gizmo effectively enriches students’ vocabulary by providing exposure to new and contextualized vocabulary, (2) it serves as a medium that fits students' individual learning needs, especially due to its flexibility and personalized vocabulary input, (3) the application offers interactive, fun, and helpful features such as quizzes and repetition that motivate learners, and (4) it increases learners’ interest and confidence in using English vocabulary. Most participants expressed ingness in using Gizmo in their future teaching practices, while one participant felt the app was too basic for advanced learners.

This study explores English Department students' perceptions of using the Falou application to improve their English speaking skills through a descriptive qualitative approach. Three students from the English Department at Universitas Islam Negeri Sumatera Utara in Medan, North Sumatra, were selected using purposive sampling and interviewed using semi-structured interviews to examine their experiences with the application. Grounded in Mobile Assisted Language Learning (MALL) theoretical framework, the research addressed three key questions: students' perceptions of Falou's effectiveness, the most beneficial features, and challenges encountered during usage. Data analysis using thematic analysis revealed predominantly positive perceptions, with participants reporting increased confidence and improved speaking practice opportunities. The most effective features identified were pronunciation training with immediate feedback (94.4% positive rating), oral practice sessions with progressive structure (88.9%), conversation simulations providing realistic scenarios (88.9%), and comprehensive speaking assessments (77.8%). However, participants also faced significant technical challenges including audio quality fluctuations (61.1% reported concerns), network connectivity issues (61.1%), voice recognition delays (mixed ratings with only 38.9% positive), and severely limited offline access capabilities (only 5.6% found it adequate). The findings suggest that while mobile applications like Falou offer promising opportunities for autonomous English speaking practice among Indonesian university students, successful implementation requires robust technical infrastructure, comprehensive user support, and pedagogical design that addresses diverse learner needs in developing country contexts where internet connectivity remains inconsistent
