### 1/5 — Does not work

*2025-03-18, version 1.0*

I am working on letter identification with a student. The app says a letter and it isn’t in the choices. You just have to click letters until you select the one that allows you to advance to the next slide.

### 1/5 — Messed up😡

*2024-09-08, version 1.0*

Just loaded this app to use in my kindergarten class and all the sounds/pictures are wrong and don’t match up. Don’t know what’s wrong with it. I ended up deleting it.

### 1/5 — Rubbish

*2023-05-29, version 1.0*

The app asks you to find a letter but doesn’t match the correct sound to the letter. The opposite of helpful. Would give negative stars if I could.

### 1/5 — Great games but everything is mixed up!

*2023-05-17, version 1.0*

I love the different games you have but the graphics and the speech don’t match up, rendering your app useless at the moment. Such a shame!

### 1/5 — Inaccurate letters

*2023-02-17, version 1.0*

The design of the activities is exactly what I need for my learners, but the answers are all wrong!

### 1/5 — Not correct letters

*2023-02-08, version 1.0*

I just downloaded this app. It says a letter to find, and the that letter is not there to choose from. If you click through the letters it will eventually say correct, but it is not the correct letter.

### 1/5 — Awful

*2023-01-22, version 1.0*

We only tried two letter identification questions, both were wrong. It said to find B, there was no B on the screen. Then it said to find T and it said we were wrong when we clicked the T but  when we hit F

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2022-11-05, version 1.0*

This is a terrible app for practicing the alphabet. The letter sounds and names are incorrect

### 1/5 — Bad

*2022-10-18, version 1.0*

I tested this out before letting my daughter try it, and good thing I did. The app will say a letter name, and you’re supposed to tap on the correct letter. It will say “B” but when you press “B”, it’s wrong. I didn’t get a check mark until I clicked H when it was saying B. It also will say a letter name and the correct letter isn’t even an option to choose from. Would be good if the app actually taught the correct letters matched with the correct letter name.

### 1/5 — Nothing works properly!

*2022-07-19, version 1.0*

The app “says” a letter. The user is supposed to tap the correct letter, but it isn’t on the board. When I went to add the letters to the board I realized that the recorded names of the letters don’t match. It was saying “h” when you tap “t”. Also wouldn’t let us set up an account to track progress. Not useful at all.
