Reviews of Simplex Spelling HD

Problems in paradise 😔

Device: iPhone 4S, 64GB, iOS 6.1.2, AT&T, latest app version:

The app now begins to open, opens the title page, where all seems ok, and is visible, and then only goes to a black screen! Can you please fix dev? I've tried it on multiple iPhones of different iOS versions as well, all with the same result. The others I tried are iPhone 3GS, iOS 4.3, and iPod Touch (not the newest iPod, but the previous version?), iOS 6.1.3, on wifi. All give same results. Looking forward to a new and usable update! Thanks for the app!

An amazing app

Wish I could've had this when I was younger. It's very fun I think. I always test run my daughters apps. And although she is two this will be the app she will be using to learn how to spell!!!!!

Update broken

I think this would be a good program but after the update it always breaks when we get to the word "don't". And by breaks I mean stops entirely. This should be fixed ASAP.
