I am a certified Montessori teacher and this app is definitely one I recommend parents to use at home. It isolates the sounds and has beautiful visual aids.

It has three choices that you can use when looking at the letters. You can use one picture to go with the letter, four pictures to go with the letter or do letter and picture matching. It also tells you the sound that each letter makes with the short vowel sounds. This app is awesome! ### 5/5 — Awesome *2020-07-22, version 4.3* Really helpful and fun!

Great app so far👍🏼 ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — The worst app in history *2022-04-25, version 4.3* THE FING WORST APP ### 1/5 — Midtown Pediatric Dentistry *2022-01-14, version 4.3* Midtown Pediatric Dentistry ### 1/5 — Only worked one time. After that only ‘I’ works. *2021-01-23, version 4.3* Worked only once. ### 1/5 — I euudhw *2020-10-30, version 4.3* Suuwona ### 1/5 — L sound is incorrect? *2017-12-29, version 4.2* I just can’t figure out what sound was the kid making for letter L. I played it over and over and it does not sound at all like the phonics for L. ### 1/5 — Teach your kid the F-word *2015-02-11, version 1.5* Before giving your kid this game, go to the letter "X" and see for yourself. This game taught my daughter to say the F word ### 1/5 — Wrong info!! *2012-01-28, version 1.2* Now my 4 year old is telling me fox starts with X!! This app has wrong information don't waste your time! ### 2/5 — Waste of time *2024-10-25, version 4.3* Horrible game sounds can annoy parents like me and even if you want your child to learn don’t download this ### 2/5 — Good App with flaws *2018-02-17, version 4.2* The app is a good idea but it has flaws. The man, woman, and child voices pronounce letter sounds differently. Some of the sounds said by the child voice are incorrect. It would be better if the letter was announced without having to press a separate button. There is no option to cycle through continuously without having to swipe. Please note the developers response is not exactly relative to the statement I made. While it sounds “nice” it doesn’t address my concern about the app. ### 2/5 — No sound *2015-06-02, version 1.5* Looks a good simple app, but useless for me as the sound didn't work. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — I *2024-08-17, version 4.3* Elephant ### 5/5 — ABC magic *2024-06-22, version 4.3* Abc magic ### 5/5 — Good fit *2024-04-29, version 4.3* This app turned out to be a great fit for my godson. It’s engaging and he loves to access it. The app is well organized and takes the age, stage, and interest of the child into consideration. The repetition of material has solidified the content for him. He’s able to demonstrate his learning for family and friends who further reinforce his excitement and learning trajectory. ### 5/5 — Very impressed *2024-02-08, version 4.3* I am a person with dyslexic and this is helping me a lot as an adult. I still see the letters misconfigured because of my dyslexic letters always seem to look different. One letter will look like a regular E and then it would look like some Chinese letter or backwards some people C letters moving others just don’t understand this what’s dyslexic it does not correct my issues, but it actually helps a lot whoever created this app you have no idea how happy I am. I wish this app came out when I was younger. Thank you very much. ### 5/5 — The first time you can do this with *2024-01-06* The first time you have seen an old woman wearing her mask and her eyes open is ### 5/5 — Awesome!! *2023-01-14, version 4.3* The best learning app to teach phonics. ### 5/5 — E q *2022-01-23, version 4.3* I have wI qo qqqqqlove have a ### 5/5 — Great *2022-01-16, version 4.3* It’s good but you need to make it a little bit more funner for three and four-year-olds ### 5/5 — Great for a beginner *2021-10-26, version 4.3* Perfect simple game for the first graders that I work with to learn to hear letter sounds. Iowa reading teacher ### 5/5 — Great! *2021-08-25, version 4.3* This is a wonderful app for struggling readers! I am using it in the classroom for students who need a slower pace to get to mastery of letter sounds. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
