Very Useful

We have all the reading doctor apps.
They can be customised to the desired reading level.

Horrible app

Don’t waste your money. The app doesn’t work as it says. It shuts down and won’t let you create new custom word lists as advertised. I’m trying to email them to get my money back.

Dyslexia Must

I am a tutor for kids with dyslexia and this app is amazingly helpful for kids who struggle with phonemic awareness and visual memory. Yes it has an Australian accent but that has not stopped it being effective. I would love to see it have an accent available for American English though. This is a fantastic addition to my toolbox.

Keeps crashing no support

I purchased two Reading doctor app a couple of months ago. They worked fine for about three weeks but after that they now crash every time and or open but nothing works. I have emailed customer support but haven’t got a reply. Don’t waste your money the app is useless.
