Thanks for Squashing the Bugs
I just wanted to say thanks for responding so quickly when the previous update introduced some bugs. The flash card activity works again and the menu screens are cleaner. I hope you keep updating as I find this app to be one of the best for speech therapy treatment.
Please
I need help! I lost all the boards I have been using for years I love Bitsboard but I need to recover my boards ! Please help me I am speech and language pathology I need my boards
I use this app constantly…but
I love this app for teaching vocabulary to multi-lingual learners and to help my clients practice high-frequency sight words. I just wish it was more intuitive to use and that questions could be submitted for answering. Videos would be helpful, too. It will send messages saying I can’t access user stats because my account isn’t synced. But it is. It won‘t let me reset user stats. Creating classrooms…I have lots of input about how to make it more efficient. All of that said, I do use the app daily. It does what no other app does. I recommend it to other educators. I just wish it worked more efficiently and questions could be answered other than a Q and A page and a list of instructions.

Deal breaker bugs
I’m a long time user and while there is so much potential, there are still bugs/crashes that are dealbreakers. Currently I’m experiencing a Dropbox 409 error when trying to import boards from Dropbox. FIX ASAP and I’ll change my rating.
Fake
The program does not work and hangs and needs constant updating
Incredible tool for education.
We have been using this tool for 10 years now. It is the only app that offers different practices with the same learning sets. We use it to teach code and languages.
We appreciate their being a student app without in-app purchases.
Since we work with remote students we are happy to be able to push changes to the content on students devices remotely, and also to login as students to see what they see when they are using the app.
The developer has been responsive to some requests and the app has always been updated with each OS update.
The presence of a time stamp on the score cards is extremely useful for educators to see not just completion and accuracy but also the time it took for the student to complete the task. Some learners simply need more time and understanding the time to complete a task allows us to adjust to the students needs.

Best App for Speech Therapists
I just want to thank the developers for continuing to update this app. I use it everyday during my therapy sessions. I don’t know what I would do without it. Many times a few minutes before a session I’ve decided I want to work on a new sound I’ll go to Bitsboard and come up with the flashcards I need. What a great tool!

Continuous crashing
Trying to create or download lost boards, the app crashes before it can finish the request. Not sure it was worth the $70…
Response from developer
LATEST UPDATE: The problem with downloading boards was fixed in v40.4. Currently the latest version is 40.5. Can you please update your app and try again and update the review if it works or email us at support@happymooseapps.com. On our end we are having zero problems with the app and we would love to assist you if you are still experiencing any problems.
A Teacher’s Best Friend
I continue to applaud the developers of this app. I have been using it for years and it is flexible, easy to personalize, and endlessly engaging for students.
Bad business practice!
I purchased this app a long time ago. The developer updated it and started to require subscriptions, so I lost a lot of features that came with the full purchase. I bought a new iPad and lost everything! I contacted the developer and they ignored my complaint and requests. Lost my money!
Best ELL & Special Ed app out there!
I agree with previous reviews that this app had huge issues a few years back. It WAS glitchy, crashed a lot and was very frustrating. Fortunately, it was bought out by the new development team and I rarely have these issues any more. It is by far the best app for review and help for English Language Learners or Developmental issues. The games and activities make learning words, phrases or identifying pictures fun and enjoyable for students. A better record keeping section for administrators would be a huge benefit as you could keep better track of successes or challenges. I train my EAs on this program and they love it as it gives them a specific daily educational routine. It is basically the most advanced flash card system out there. Well worth the $60. The school can download the free version to all their iPads and as long as you make a Username (no personal info or password required), the students can request to join a class (found in the catalogue) that you make. In a class you can include several (lots) of boards that they can use. The beautiful thing is that if you make a class, put a new board into the class, then share it the students get your new boards immediately, without having to request it again. The trick is to make your Class name easy to find. Example: School Name - Sight Words. Then when searching through the catalogue it is easy to find. Request to join, and the administrator (using the Pro Only version) accepts the request. There are literally hundreds of pre made boards to choose from and you can download someone else’s board and edit to your specifications. Picture, word, audio and options to record their responses. Just needs a record system to make this a 5* app. It’s pretty close without this feature! I am a Special Ed teacher with 35 years of experience and run most of my programs using technology to support learning. Keep up the development Bitsboard!

Very useful for speech and language therapy!
This app had its share of technical issues a couple of years back. I had written a negative review. I finally received support from the developer. While my issues have not been entirely resolved, I have been able to create and use boards that are customized to my client’s goals and are very motivating. Thank you Bitsboard!

Scam?
I paid 68.99$ for the Bitsboard Pro app, and it seemed to download to my phone; however I was never prompted to setup an account. It seems I am only able to view as a ‘Guest User’, which makes my purchase pointless.
I’ve contacted ‘happy moon’ 3 times about this issue with no response.
Is this a scam?

Response from developer
I am surprised to still find this review on the App Store. To create an account you just press on the '+' on the main screen. You can create and add an unlimited amount of users with the PRO app. I also do not see any emails when I search our archive of support tickets. The majority of our team is from the Ukraine and when the war started we had lots of problems and even lost some members so I am sorry if for some reason nobody followed up with you.
User Statistic
I love this app!But there is an issue with the user statistics. It is always loading and I need to input their grades. So when I open the user stats it just loads and I can’t view all their grades. Please help fix this issue. Mid-progress report is in a few days and I need the stats asap. Thank you
No support
I emailed support twice but never heard back from them with answers to questions.
Love the app
But I am struggling with this latest upgrade!!
It crashes when I touch certain buttons. I can't seem to download more than 3 boards from my catalogue. It's very frustrating.

An excellent idea but too many technical problems
It lags, shuts down, freezes, I cannot find my own boards. It is frustrating and takes too much of the valuable time. Please fix it.
Response from developer
I am so sorry to hear that you were experiencing some problems with the app. It should definitely not freeze or shut down. Something must be wrong. Can you please try to upgrade to v40.2 and reach out to us to see how we can help? Our support email is support@happymooseapps.com Thank you, Mike
App working slowly
Hi
This app is great but now I’ve decided to make my own boards. The app is working really slowly.

Response from developer
I am so sorry to hear that you were experiencing some problems with the app. I would like to learn more why creating new boards is slow on your end because we cannot replicate this. There must be something that is causing it and I would love to learn more so we can replicate the problem and get it fixed. Can you please try to upgrade to v40.2 and reach out to us to see how we can help? Our support email is support@happymooseapps.com Thank you, Mike
Great app with admirable support provided
I have used this app for a very long time and my students absolutely love it. It is easy to create new materials. I have found when I have had any problems and contacted the developers, the response has been quick and the support commendable. I highly recommend this app!
