My four year old is learning letters and reading right now. She loves this app already. So that's good. Also it's not gummy, it works great, no skipping or glitches. So that's good too. Y problems are with the content itself. I wish it taught you to trace the letter, not just recognize it or put the pieces of it together like a puzzle. Also, I wish it would make the sound the letter makes, instead of saying the name of the letter. That helps so much more with learning to read. It never sounds out the letters. (i.e. when she's learning this letter *W* they always say "double U" but never give the sound it makes "wah")
There are so many skills a letter learning app could cultivate and this one seems to be focused ONLY on recognizing/naming each letter. Not sounding them out, not drawing or tracing them, nothing to help them learn to read or write. What good is seeing *W* and knowing "that is a *double-U*" if you don't know what sound it makes? Anyway, the app itself is a very well made app. That's why it gets three stars.
