### 4/5 — Super! But fix sound issue

*2016-03-18*

We are a bilingual family and I am an ESOL teacher. This app is excellent for our four year old who is learning to read. It makes the sounds for all the letters of a word and then says the word with an accompanying picture. It is also great just for learning and hearing the words. The only issue is that the volume is very low. We have the sound all the way up but it has to be very quiet to hear the sounds of the letters. The format is great and there are lots of categories with many words. My daughter's favorite app!

### 3/5 — Error H sound

*2015-11-06*

I want to use this app with one of my students, but the H sound need to be fix. I am a native speaker...the h is silent in Spanish. In the app sounds like on English. If it's fix can be a great app.

**Developer response:** Thank you.  Yes, we are waiting for the next update which will address this issue and provide options for different accents from different regions.  See our 3 ABC MÁGICO apps which have already had these sound and word updates.

### 4/5 — sound works great

*2014-07-26*

I am not a native speaker but I do speak and understand intermediate level spanish and only heard a slight issue with the r in raton- I am wondering if that is the issue a previous reviewer was speaking about.  The sound works great. The app has a simple uncluttered interface with professional graphics and audio. No links to App Store, or ads etc.

### 2/5 — sound does not work

*2012-08-11*

fix the sound issue please!

**Developer response:** The sound issues have been fixed with the latest upgrades.

### 3/5 — What is wrong with that "r"

*2012-07-30*

This app is pretty good, but you need to fix the "r" sound.  It sound like a consonant cluster "br".  I want to used in my classroom as a technology reward for my kinder student, but you need to fix that first.  Hope I see that soon.  In the meantime I give you 3 stars.

**Developer response:** Hopefully, this issue has been fixed with our last update. If not, then the next update  will address this issue and provide options for different accents from different regions. See our 3 ABC MÁGICO apps which have already had these sound and word updates.

### 1/5 — No sound

The sound has been updated and upgraded .

### 3/5 — Great app

*2012-06-14*

If I could only hear it. The sound really blows!

**Developer response:** Thankfully, sound has been fixed and upgraded.

### 1/5 — Not useful!!

*2012-03-28*

This app failed completely to live up to its potential. The drawings are so vague it is impossible to guess the meaning of the words!!! Hence u are not learning.
It would be helpful if the direct translation was given with the picture. lame! Needs updating

### 3/5 — Sound?

*2012-02-11*

Dear development, please fix the sound.

**Developer response:** Thank you. Yes, thankfully, sound has been fixed and upgraded.

### 4/5 — Nice Surprise

*2012-02-06*

I am new to iWorld so the concept of a free app that actually does something cool is new but this app is accurate, fun and helpful. Recommended.
