Could you build this?
Partial Playing audio clips and listing terms is simple, but phoneme-level pronunciation scoring and accent detection require specialized speech evaluation ML models rather than generic speech-to-text.
What it would actually take: The app needs an iOS frontend (Swift/SwiftUI) connected to a pronunciation assessment pipeline (such as Azure Speech Pronunciation Assessment API or an acoustic model fine-tuned on IPA phoneme forced alignment like Montreal Forced Aligner). Standard speech recognition models simply normalize accents into text, so specialized phone error rate (PER) scoring and acoustic feature analysis are required.
