Ich kann keinen Account erstellen

Können Die mir helfen, ich kann den Account erstellen Vorgang nicht abschließen. Ich klicke auf die Sprache und dann kommen 4 Buttons, warum ich diese App für mein Kind brauche. Und dann geht es nicht weiter. Was muss ich tun?

Good concept, needs improvement.

My 7 year old enjoyed the app until it required him to read the words out loud, the app did not pick up him saying the word which was frustrating to him. He then lost interest in the app quickly. We attempted several times and used the full trial period before giving up.

Nearly great

I really wanted this to work for my son but he keeps getting frustrated as often the speaker doesn’t pick up what he is saying. I have cancelled the subscription for now but I am hoping to come back at a later date and try again as I do think this could be really helpful for my son if it wasn’t for the speaker issues.

So schade!

Die Aufmachung der Übungen und die täglichen, kurzen Einheiten motivieren unseren Sohn sehr. Leider wird er - da das Lesen und Schreiben ihm wirklich schwer fallen - absolut durcheinander gebracht vom Nennen der Buchstabennamen (statt der Lautnamen, die das Zusammenziehen erleichtern) sowie von der abweichenden Anordnung der Buchstaben auf der Tastatur. Das ist so schade, weil wir dringend eine gute, motivierende Übungsmöglichkeit für ihn suchen. Wenn eine App, die für Kinder mit LRS beworben wird, das Lesen und Schreiben noch zusätzlich erschwert, ist das wirklich frustrierend.

Improved sons confidence

I got this for my 6 year old who we strongly suspect has dyslexia and have been working with school to put support in place. This app is really helping with his confidence and enthusiasm for writing and spelling. Would highly recommend

Speaker function

Anyone else having problem with the speaker function? When my grandson has to say the word the app just doesn’t hear it ….also doesn’t seem to be any different levels to start from or am I missing something?

Charged £38.99 for a free trial

I have just been charged for what I thought was a free trial, an absolute disgrace.
Sadly it is not right for my child.
I would like a refund as soon as possible please.

Good contents but need technical improvement

I think the content is great for kids with dyslexia, and the concept of making a spaceship really motivates my son. However, the app doesn’t consistently recognize words correctly. I noticed my son pronouncing the words accurately, but the app didn’t highlight them in blue, which usually indicates a correct answer. This could be confusing for dyslexic kids, making them uncertain about their reading accuracy. As a result, I always need to sit beside him to confirm his answers. Please consider improving this technical issue. The content is excellent, especially for families who can’t afford extensive intervention programs.

More info

Also it didn’t pick up on voices either a lot of the time, so frustrating for a child who has learning issues to start with,

Gut, aber mit Fehlern

Diese App gefällt uns eigentlich ganz gut. Leider scheint sie aus dem Englischen übersetzt worden zu sein. Daher finden wir immer wieder kleine Fehler oder ist einfach schlecht zu verstehen.

An absolute saver for kids with dyslexia

I’m use this app with children for a couple of months and it really full fills it’s promises. I hope the more people start using it and add more language is become available in the future thanks to health team for the development

Sadly not for us

I liked the science behind the app but the timed elements did not work for us. There was no way to pause the reading activity and whilst my daughter was still trying to work out the word, the highlighted bit had already jumped to the next word. This left her feeling dejected that she couldn’t do it correctly or within the time required. I wanted to use the app to help build her confidence reading but she is now even less keen. I would recommend an option is added to pause the activities so the child has a chance to work through in their own time. I would give them a sense of achievement rather than failure.

Gute App, wenig Einstellungsmöglichkeiten

Liebes Team,
Ich habe die App heruntergeladen, um meinem Sohn eine Alternative zum lernen zu bieten. Er arbeitet fleißig jeden Tag an der App. Schade ist, dass man nicht mehrere Accounts für mehrere Kinder anlegen kann. Ich hätte die App ach gern für meine Tochter genutzt und fände das für den Preis auch gerechtfertigt. Zusätzlich finde ich es schade, dass ich keine Einstellungen vornehmen kann. Am Anfang wird man einmal gefragt, was geübt werden soll und wenn man dann nicht alles angeklickt hat, kann man es nicht mehr ändern...höchstens alles Erarbeitete löschen und von vorn beginnen?
Ansonsten würde ich die App bisher weiterempfehlen.

Horrible

This app doesn’t work or is really unintuitive. It is either accepting wrong voice input, or doesn’t indicate when a child says a word wrong. After listening to my child fail to read a single word correctly in one of the initial lessons the app says something like “You aced it!”. Also, there seems to be a bug preventing us from continuing to the next lesson. We have completed the word maths today three times but cannot continue to the 3rd of 4 daily activities. I’m very disappointed and a bit angry that this app has managed to further confuse my child.

Tolle App

Meine Tochter übt sehr erfolgreich mit der App. Sie mag die Rechtschreibübungen sehr und es scheint ihr zu helfen, die Buchstaben und Laute zu unterscheiden.

15 minutes isn’t long enough

I think you’ve got something epic here I really do.

However fifteen minutes isn’t long enough, and should be adaptable to age/needs, specified by the parent.

And fifteen minutes each day for £10 per month equates to seven hours use per month.

As a therapist with two kids with SEN, I’m excited by the potential but not by the limitation on a paying app.

I’m afraid I’ll be deleting this, such a massive shame.

Doesn’t work on iPad

Downloaded this for my son but we can’t even get past the first test as the drag and drop feature doesn’t work. I’ve downloaded the app to my phone and it works on there so think this must be an iPad issue. Help please

I don’t understand

So I have herd about this app. I can’t even get past the modules overview page. Is needs to be improved

Hängt sich ständig auf

App ist wenn sie dann funktioniert super aber hängt sich ständig auf. So ist die Motivation schnell dahin sehr schade

Response from developer

Es tut uns leid, dass Sie mit der App nicht zufrieden waren - aber danke, dass Sie uns auf das Problem hingewiesen haben. Wir haben den Bug gefunden und behoben.

We can’t get past the verbal vowel section

And on asking for help through the website support it says I can’t ask for help. Please help
