### 5/5 — Stupendous!

*2016-04-13, version 1.0*

Very, very nice learning app!

### 5/5 — Love it

*2016-04-13, version 1.0*

Great variety

### 1/5 — What a turn off! Inappropriate & Lacks Principle

*2018-12-12, version 1.2*

I'll refrain from the details around the poor functionality. 
The real turn off here is seeing a photo for the word "down". The photo depicts a man standing with his hand all the way inside his jeans over his private area. Are you guys serious and think this stock photo is appropriate for any aged child, especially a six or seven year old to see?? You should be ashamed. Please advise how I can be refunded.

### 2/5 — Not working?

*2017-02-26, version 1.0*

For some reason the game doesn't always register when the correct letter is touched. Also, when I made my own list of spelling words it put pictures up that displayed the word that the kids need to spell. Maybe there's a way to change the image that I haven't found. Then when I had the game make a word search from the list of spelling words I had entered. It only put one word in the whole word search!?!?
Maybe I'm doing something wrong or maybe the game needs to be updated??? It would be a great app if I could get it to work correctly!!! Any suggestions?

### 4/5 — Awful!

*2018-09-09, version 1.2*

I can’t get most of the games to even work!

### 4/5 — Like it!

*2016-07-05, version 1.0*

Soon to be first grader enjoys practicing her spelling words with this app. Fun way to reinforce spelling and reading words.

### 4/5 — Wow, spell well:-)

*2016-07-02, version 1.0*

Once again, absolutely love the awesome variety especially for challenged learners! The only fix I'd recommend is, when 4 letters are presented simultaneously, the "tail" letters are cut off & therefore unrecognizable. Otherwise, so much fun, Akeelah would love this bee and so do I!!

### 5/5 — Spelling games with list from school!!!

*2018-03-05, version 1.2*

We were looking for a new fun app to help our daughter (7) practice spelling words from school, this is IT!  After trying a few others that were all deemed “not fun” this app is a HIT.  When you add lists you can check pronunciation and add a picture (find your own if you don’t like theirs).  It is completely customizable, and even gives you the option to turn off any lists (pre-loaded, or custom), and/or any games for each (or all) lists!   We are thrilled.

### 5/5 — First grade list

*2017-03-29*

Excellent for making the children think - not too simple!

### 5/5 — Awesome!

*2017-02-17, version 1.0*

How wonderful it is to be able to build custom word lists by which my son can study his words! He can play a variety of games which help him build words in a variety of ways. I'm grateful for this app!

### 5/5 — Best!!

*2017-02-09, version 1.0*

This is the best app that I have found.
I really hope that you continue to maintain and upgrade this product. It's at a very good price for the quality of the app.

### 5/5 — I love it! Wish they had grade 5-12

*2017-01-10*

Maybe a little restructured so they had no tracing but I would love this for SAT words and myself.

This app is excellent! I love the many activities provide.The audio is wonderful .....clear to understand!

### 5/5 — Great for AAC

*2016-07-08, version 1.0*

It is fun using this app to practice the spelling page on my grandson's PRC device!

### 5/5 — Child game, even for dad

*2016-06-21, version 1.0*

My 4 year old loves it, no longer tired of spelling, prefer it over car race at least when I am around, used it even twice since I load app when she could watch songs, great game for her dad too. Few times though my daughter answers correctly but app gave her wrong report. Over all still excellent.

### 5/5 — Wish I found sooner

*2016-06-03, version 1.0*

I love how you can add your child's spelling list from their school. I just wish I found this earlier in the school year. It has helped my child with their spelling words greatly.
