Just what was needed
My 5 year old is very behind after covid. She’s been trying soo hard with me doing flash cards with her but I don’t have loads of time. This app is perfect- you can see the word, child can say the word out loud (if they don’t know it they can tap the word and it will say it out loud) if they know the word straight away then your child gives a thumbs up and if not then a thumbs down. It will keep score for you and allow you to practise the ones you don’t know more so then I know which words to help her with. This saves me soo much time as i can just help with the ones she needs help with. Absolutely brilliant- thanks soooo much!

Great app for techie kids
Paper flash cards were okay for my daughter (6) but didn't inspire her to learn her words. We found this app we both love it. I can create custom lists based on the word lists her teacher sends home. I also liked that I could consolidate just the words she needed to learn. She likes earning "thumbs up" and "wings" after she gets it right three times in a row. It's not an app that a kid should do alone since they have the ability to mark thumbs up or down themselves but I would definitely recommend for kids who maybe don't learn as well with old-school paper things.

Great App
Great, simple app that can be used anytime and anywhere to review sight words. It keeps up with your progress and automatically advances to the next level of learning.
Great App
I've tried other sight word Apps and this is my favorite. I love that it comes equipped with Fry's word list as well as many others including the alphabet (separate uppercase/lowercase list), numbers (including spelling in separate list), family, shapes, and days of the week. I really like that I can customize my own lists. My kids learn 5 words at a time. I make my lists in the order they are being learned and include previously learned words for review. I got more than my money's worth with this app!

Can we have cloud sync across devices please?
Hi I think this an excellent app and my I can really see the progress my child is making each day. I would like to see syncing with iCloud if at all possible, as I'm sure a lot of people have a couple of devices, and it is a little frustrating for someone when they find they have to "do stuff again".

Very convenient !
I am a special education teacher and how amazing this app is to monitor progress in a short period of time! The only problem I have is there isn't a date stamp so I can record progress time and date. I have been taking a picture of progress screen and emailing it to gen Ed teacher but I would love it if I could record date directly from the app.

Great practice
This is a great app! I love that you simply press the thumbs up or thumbs down. I hope they come up with math flash cards that you do not have to choose an answer or write an answer..just like the sight words one :).
Excellent app for reinforcing sight vocabulary
I have been very impressed with this app. It takes a very simple approach to sight vocabulary with the words being presented in a flash card format. There are a range of fonts available to suit individual users.
It could be used by children themselves with the user reading the word and then checking their answer against the recording. They then click thumbs up or thumbs down. Alternatively it can be used with a parent.
When a particular test is completed the results are scored so that tricky words can be revised. The only thing that prevents me from giving this app a 5 star is that it is not easy to create lists based on the words that a child is learning. In settings it does appear to be possible to create custom lists but I found it impossible to cut and paste these into the app. Make this possible and this is the ultimate sight vocabulary app!

Especially now it comes with AU color coded words, which save me time manually enter them in.
