Game Changer

My daughter has been struggling to read . We have tried everything and to only end up in tears.. this program she loves and she is excited to use! Only after a month of using the free version we have noticed her trying to sound out words on her own and her speed to put words together has improved

Love it as a Math and Reading supplement!

Our household currently has 2 children using Ello 2.0, (math and reading). We previously used Ello without the adaptive AI features and think this new program is a great supplement to our children's core curriculum. We appreciate that it does not correct every single reading error, which is helping to gain our children’s confidence in reading. The program asks questions after a reading lesson, which demonstrates our children’s understanding of what they are reading. Since using this program we have seen a shift in learning to read towards reading to learn. We highly recommend this program!

Thank you so much for the glowing review! We're thrilled you're loving Ello and appreciate your support!

My 5 year-old loves this

My son is shy about attempting to read out loud with me, but he loves reading out loud with Ello! He also loves creating stories and asking Ello questions. Such a beautifully designed app.

Response from developer

This makes us so happy to hear! We love that Ello gives your son a space where he feels comfortable taking those first steps. Building that confidence is exactly what we hope to encourage. Thank you so much for the kind words!

Don’t waste your time or money

Do not update to Ello 2.0. It’s a push for money. Parents have to have two phone numbers if they want to set up for 2 kids, cannot be under the same dashboard, have to pay for unlimited twice - once per kid if you want it, and free says “limited parent reports” but you cannot even see your child’s grade level or any progress unless you upgrade to unlimited. They used to have a program for low income families, that’s gone “but the original Ello will keep that program” which means they’re charging for 2 separate apps and programs. They say they will release an update to allow for multiple children under one account (which original Ello already had) like that was an after thought after first thinking to charge $400 if you want two kids to have unlimited for a year was acceptable. It’s a disgrace, truly. Don’t waste your time or money.
