Nothing
I downloaded and tried to get on and all I got was an add and a bouncing ball over and over.
Upgrade is not worth $4.99
Maybe if it allowed you to enter custom words... but even with that $5 is a little steep for such a basic interface. The “hard” words are not 2nd grade level.
Not for the UK
I'm sure this app is fine if you are in the US however in the UK we pronounce things differently and therefore this app is no good for us.
Dreadful
This app doesn't understand basic things. For example, we NEVER jumble the letters in a word because doing that interferes with children learning the visual pattern of the word. We might break words into onset and rime and use onsets and rimes to make new words, but we NEVER jumble up all the letters. (Yes, it rime, not rhyme. If you don't know the difference, you're not a teacher -- or your teacher education let you down.)

Incomplete words
This app leaves the letters off of longer words. For example, it gave the word "brother" audibly, but had left off the "er" at the end on the screen, making the word "broth". It then spelled the word "brother" correctly audibly, but left of the "er" as it added each letter to the screen visually. Useless with these types of errors; worse than useless actually, since it would reinforce mistakes & create confusion for the child.

Won't Load
I downloaded the app 2 days ago, still hasn't loaded and won't delete. I've tried a soft reset and everything. Still there just waiting.
Great concept, but has spelling and pronunciation error
The concept is great - we loved the app until the word "another" came up spelled "anoth" and "because" came up spelled "becau". Also the word "been" was pronounced "bean". This is appalling for an application that teaches sight words. I have deleted the program and I'm very upset I paid for the upgrade. It is too bad because the program is fantastic.

Ok game
This game is okay. It loses its sound through the games, so the child can't finish the game. It doesn't list all the letters on some of the words. And it needs more levels. My 2nd grader just the game last night and she already knows most of the words. But I Love the concept.
Hate it
I do not
Like this game it's stupid and weird

Not many words even with upgrades...
Not many words and levels of difficulty. I've paid for the upgrades but it still has ads and there are still not many words. This game only takes a day to practice all the words for my first grader!
