Fantastic!
Not a game, not an effective learning app
Good reading apps give kids control over the phonemes - letting them drag to scrub audio, highlight words as they go. This has none of that. The spoken text screens are weakly thought through. My preschooler would just randomly swipe for a bit and cast it away.
I couldn't find any game element at all. Disappointing.

Thanks for trying Little Wheels and for taking the time to write a review. Little Wheels is a calm, speech and vocabulary app for vehicle loving toddlers. It is not a reading app or a game app, so you will see real vehicle words like “cement mixer” and “mobile crane.” Those are in there on purpose for kids who want to name the vehicles they see with objects they already love. You are right that some parents may want more direction. I am adding clearer parent tips on how to use the “Hear it → Stretch it → Say it” flow and how to sit and listen to the vehicle stories together, repeat the action words, and then let your child explore on their own. If you were looking for tap to highlight reading or more game style mechanics, that is a different type of app than what Little Wheels is trying to be right now. I still would like to hear what your preschooler liked or did not like so I can keep improving. You can email me at sean@recordcreativeco.com

Thanks so much! I'm adding a way for parents to record soon that may make it even easier to practice on her own!
BEST APP EVER

Awesome to hear it’s helping during speech practice. Reviews from parents like you really help other families find tools that work, and they guide what I build next. Email me: sean@recordcreativeco.com with any ideas you have! - Sean

Thank you so much for sharing this, I’m so glad your little one is enjoying it! I built Little Wheels to make screen time simple, safe, and genuinely educational for toddlers. Feedback like this keeps us building new ways to make learning fun for families like yours.
Fun + engaging app for littles!
Response from developer
This means a lot - thank you! Seeing kids light up while they play and learn is exactly why I built Little Wheels. If you have any favorite moments or ideas for new vehicles or sounds, I'd love to hear them!
Best App for young kiddos

Thanks so much for sharing this! I love hearing how families are using Little Wheels in different ways. While 7 months may be a little early for full play, it’s awesome that she’s already responding to the sounds and visuals — that kind of shared attention is a great first step toward early communication. Appreciate you taking the time to write a review!
Great App!
