User reviews

Error in the app with no support

The app is great if you want an incomplete experience. My kids got to level 31 out of 40 on two different iPads and the app won’t progress. I sent an email and there is no response so now I’m back to looking for another option.

Response from developer

Sorry that we missed your email. We can help you unlock the app and move to the next module. Please email info@FUNetix.org for a quick response. Kind Regards. ~Team FUNetix : )

My 6 year old loved it!

My daughter was having trouble learning to read because the letters were too ambiguous. The phonetic approach was great and she made clear progress right away. She finished all 40 lessons and is super happy. She still needs to check the phonetics (funetix! 😃) but it helped her confidence a lot. She likes it much better than Duo ABC and Funetix also has a better focus on actual learning

Response from developer

Hi Scott, thank you for the feedback and so happy that your daughter enjoyed and learned from the app!! Please send us an update on her progress to info@FUNetix.org. We love to hear how students are progressing with their literacy skills after using FUNetix! ~Kali

Extremely Useful

As an educational tool this app works wonders for early readers! I can attest to that fact because I used to teach the Funetix curriculum to struggling young readers, in person, and now I can use the app as a tool — which makes the whole learning process more interactive and fun with the student! I highly recommend this app!
