awful experience and forced videos

it forces me to watch stupid videos that i don't want to watch and don't need. the quality is overall good, but i don’t like being forced to watch videos. also, i absolutely HATE the timed tasks. when i press the right thing, it makes me get the wrong answer. and one thing i hate most is the grammar. at first, i thought that the grammar set would be easy. plot twist, it's not. they literally gave me demonstrative adjectives and pronouns. i don't even know that stuff. and when i misclick, i always get a lecture on demonstrative pronouns and adjectives. i do not recommend using this app. so now, i just work on comprehension and word study. lexia powerup, CHANGE YOUR LEARNING WAYS. KIDS GET FRUSTRATED AND EVENTUALLY, THEY START TO HATE LEXIA POWERUP. 👏PLEASE👏CHANGE👏 YOUR👏 LEARNING👏 WAYS! 👏

This is making me lose brain cells

bro they say stuff like this is the sound button like we would not already know that. Like this is the worst fkn trash app I have ever laid my eyes and ears on. It makes me feel like I want to rip my ears off and then put them in acid, then bleach my eyes out until I can’t hear or see anymore. I had to get this for school and I am instantly regretting this purchase. ✌️🫩🥀

Its okay i guess

its alright but the two wrong answers in a row then going into this practice thing that we were already doing is a bit annoying. I like some of the content but i don’t think any student above grade 7 should do it because it isn’t so necessary.

One thing to change

I think PowerUp Lexia is actually an okay learning tool, I’ve learned much from it. But the reason people say it’s so bad is likely because of what it does when you get things wrong. If you’re struggling on one thing in Lexia and you get something wrong 2 times, it only has one lesson for helping you, and most of the time it’s not what you’re struggling with. If PowerUp actually had more than one lesson to help you than it would help me a lot more. Other wise it’s not that bad.
