## Most critical reviews (7 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Out dated app incompatible with iOS updates

*2017-08-02, version 1.2*

Immediately after purchase, I get a warning saying this app is out of date and will cease to operate (or slowdown my iPad) because it's too far behind the iOS development timeline. I have emailed the support address for a refund as there's no point engaging in a succession of app purchases with a developer that doesn't support its products.

### 5/5 — Awesome app for teaching sounds

*2023-11-17*

This app is great for teaching sounds. It makes learning fun! My daughter has learned all her letter sounds and loves using this app!

### 5/5 — Fantastic app for LD kids

*2016-02-13, version 1.2*

My daughter has ADHD and Dyslexia and this app has been one of the most effective learning programs we have tried, mostly due to the multi sensory features and the progressive nature of the app. I've purchased the sight word and blending app now and will be recommending she use them at school. My younger daughter in Kindergarten is now using it to learn her sounds as well.

### 5/5 — Dr

*2016-01-18, version 1.2*

Initially this app wouldn't work on my Samsung s3 but support have been absolutely fantastic and I have the app now working perfectly on the iPad. My daughter really enjoys it, it is still early days to know whether it will help with her reading but it is easy to use and most of the other reading apps, I can't get her to do. Great app so far and the app support has been exceptional.

### 5/5 — Flexible, fun and so smart

*2014-04-07, version 1.0*

My 3.5 yr old son and I have been using this app, together with letter sounds 2 for a while now and they are incredible.

It gives him so much satisfaction to realise that he is learning to read, and me lots of satisfaction to be able to customise his learning experience within the apps to suit his rate of progression.

My son finds them lots of fun and often he'll be the one suggesting that we open them up.

I can highly recommend both apps. You'll end up using them daily!

### 5/5 — Another awesome teaching tool

*2014-03-16, version 1.0*

I love the automatic scaffolding and the game based teaching approach. This is not your average app! It has become my favourite tool for teaching letter sound relationships. I have three apps from reading doctor and I would highly recommended them for anyone teaching phonics!

### 5/5 — Simply Amazing!

*2014-03-14*

I've been teaching grades (K-2) for 10 years and I must say this program is amazing! My students are so eager to use this app daily! Works wonders for my special needs students! This app is worth every penny!;)
