Not supper engaging

This is a very limited app. It needs more games for children to stay engaged. There also needs to be an option to remove the visual scoring. This can be discouraging for children. It would abe nice if it generated the word list for the words chosen. It would also be nice if there were pictures for all of the words and provided the correct spelling for the phonetically spelled words (i .e., “Ahf “ vs “Off”). It would have been nice to preview this before spending money on it or at least a preview of some kind. I feel like this was not worth the money spent.

Pretty good

This app allows the speech-language pathologist to select from among many different levels which is great. The kids enjoy the game. One problem I have is with the choice of stimuli—better to use fewer more frequently occurring words than words kids don’t use often and often don’t have in their vocabulary, for example: “gain.” Repeating words within a game would be fine as long as they get the practice. Also with CVCVC words there are often words that end with a vocalic r—which functions not as a consonant but as a vowel. In addition r’s are later developing so many off my kids aren’t really to work on words with r’s. Again better to reduce the number of stimuli.

Loved this app......lots of nice sound combos, and able bridge to words. Performed an update on my ipad and now the recording feature is not working!
How do I get it to work again?

Great

The app has been very helpful in working with all of my speech kiddos. They enjoy watching the mouth move and trying to imitate. The game is fun and keeps them entertained.
