### 2/5 — I don’t know how to get shapes. Maybe I’m in wrong update

*2026-03-25, version 2.0.3*

Guys help i can’t find shapes in this app i am in version 2.3

### 4/5 — Very good but

*2024-05-29, version 2.0.3*

I got this for my son and he loves it alot :) But there’s some things i wanna talk about: can you add different languages please? My son loves other languages. Also can you add shapes and cursive letters to it please? Thats all overall the game is very good thats why i gave it 4 stars. :D

### 4/5 — Not bad

*2023-11-06, version 2.0.3*

This is good but slight glitches to fix 
The HWT H 
and the fact that the golden level glitch out on me as I was recording

### 4/5 — Bad

*2022-11-15, version 2.0.3*

Annoyinigggg ahhhh

### 2/5 — Why are the lines diagonal!?

*2022-09-06, version 2.0.3*

I was using an older version of this app on my friends iPad, which is why I decided to purchase one for myself. I am surprised that all the block letters start with diagonal lines. That is so confusing and for it being the same app, I feel like I wasted my money. Not happy.

### 4/5 — Great app - letter H glitch

*2021-08-20, version 2.0.3*

This app is really great for teaching to write letters independently  and I would give it 5 stars but there is a glitch with the letter H where sometimes it freezes and you have to do each part twice and my son gets really frustrated. I saw a comment from two years ago that reported it and it’s a little disappointing it still hasn’t been fixed. I would still recommend!!

### 5/5 — Wow

*2021-03-13, version 2.0.3*

I love this game because it has new styles like the uk style and Australian style!!

### 5/5 — Letters misformed

*2020-04-04, version 2.0.0*

The letters are slanted very strangely. It’s
odd because we also had the other version of this same app, and it didn’t have that problem. Waste of $10 because I don’t want my son to learn the wrong way. Ugh!!!

### 5/5 — Best printing app!

*2019-02-25, version 2.0.0*

As a K teacher, this is my go-to app for supported latter formation practice. Kids love it. I like the way the support is slowly withdrawn as the kids practice.

### 5/5 — Great app to teach letter formation

*2019-01-25, version 2.0.0*

I use this app every day with my special education students who need help learning letter formation using the Handwriting Without Tears formation guidelines. This app reinforces a developmentally appropriate approach to learn letter formation. It provides engaging visual cues to enhance independent formation. The kids I work with along with my grandchildren really enjoy this app. Thank you Letter School!

### 4/5 — Great app small glitch

*2018-12-25, version 2.0.0*

Love this app for my preschooler. I love that I can pick the font to learn so it matches up with what she’s learning in school. All the different animations keep my daughter engaged and motivated. My only complaint is that the letter H gets frozen after the first animation. My daughter is so sad she can’t get all the stars.

### 5/5 — Bro thanks

*2018-11-16*

Cool app but it crashes no letters.

### 1/5 — Not worth money

*2026-01-18, version 2.0.3*

Ehh does not hold interest not a game

### 1/5 — Crashes every time now

*2024-06-20, version 2.0.3*

My kiddo loves this app but now it crashes every time he opens it on his iPad. His device is updated and it still works on my phone. Super hopeful that there’s a simple fix.

### 1/5 — Only 3 Pages

*2024-03-10, version 2.0.3*

This is only 3 pages for 10 pounds!!! Gangsters :(

### 1/5 — It kicked me out

*2023-04-08, version 2.0.3*

Right as I almost finished 1 in the golden level it kicked me out and made me start all over again UGH!

### 1/5 — Can’t turn off irritating music

*2022-05-16, version 2.0.3*

Why can’t I turn off the awful background
music?

### 1/5 — Horrible app I want my money back

*2019-02-10*

Horrible app and I want my money back, keeps popping up this answer to show you are a grown up then I answer and keeps asking the same question, annoying

**Developer response:** Hi,

The reason we have a Parental Gate is that the app is for toddlers and preschoolers, and we don't want them to mess with the settings. Therefore, the pop-up to access them, as well as any sort of purchases is necessary to stop kids from unwanted activity. 

If that's the only reason you think our app is horrible, then we are sorry. You can request a refund directly from the App Store. If you have any other inquiries or need any additional explaining, please feel free to contact us anytime at support@letterschool.com

### 1/5 — This app is dumb

*2019-01-24, version 2.0.0*

Why are u asking me questions like what numbers is visible by 3 and when I select the answer it doesn’t work ? I want my money back

### 1/5 — Can’t get app to work

*2018-10-04, version 1.2.1*

The app won’t face the correct way when the iPad is laying in landscape. So frustrating!

### 1/5 — No sound no support

*2017-09-10, version 1.1*

Downloaded two versions of this; none have sound on iPhone. Followed the steps for troubleshooting still no sound. Emailed company twice and no response! I want my money back!!

### 1/5 — Waste of money

*2017-08-04, version 1.1*

It draws most of the letter for for the kid so he's not learning how to do it , and app has no sound at all so my son doesn't even know what he's looking at.

Did you like letter school?

### 5/5 — Wow.

*2025-10-23, version 2.0.3*

Great I love and appreciate it!

### 5/5 — Thanks

*2024-09-01, version 2.0.3*

It’s up to you

### 5/5 — Great app

*2024-02-22, version 2.0.3*

This has been an amazing app where my son enjoys writing all letters and numbers. He is autistic and this has helped him a lot. The levels and guidance seem very appropriate. There are few requests.
1. It would be good to add more number support like 2 digits, to understand the concept of 2 digits.
2. For giving sensory input adding vibrations as they trace the letters or numbers would really help.
3. Would be good to have some words added to tracing or Would be nice to have customizable words or numbers
4. It would be nice to adjust the size of letters and numbers. It is good to have them large in the beginning, but once that is practiced, would be nice to work on smaller font size.
5. Tracing in shapes would be good as well.

### 5/5 — Outstanding independent teaching Resource

*2023-08-22*

This has been one of the most engaging tools I used in the classroom. 
I highly recommend it to anyone that has a child learning the letter names of the alphabet and the correct formation.
