### 1/5 — Not impressed

*2014-06-16, version 1.0*

I wanted a tool for building words with students.  I wanted students to be able to put one sound into each boxed area, but you can only split it into three columns.  Each time you use it, you have to set the sound tiles you want.  I would like to have the option of setting up profiles with saved tiles for specific students.  My biggest complaint is the set up.  Instead of having all the tiles on the first screen, students have to scroll across making it hard to find sounds, and the digraphs are after the vowel teams.  It is not worth the money, and I can't find a way to return it!!!!

### 4/5 — Love It But....

*2012-12-19, version 1.0*

I love this app. . The one thing I would like to request is the option to make and save your own word cards within the app.. That addition would make this the PERFECT tool.

### 5/5 — Fantastic Teaching Tool

*2012-11-26, version 1.0*

Link-It is the best teaching tool I've come across as a learning specialist.  There is so much to take advantage of and it's a time-saver as well.  Moreover, not only is it convenient and easy to use, but it's engaging.  Link-It is undoubtedly a useful app on so many levels and I highly recommend it!

### 5/5 — Great Resource!

*2012-11-09, version 1.0*

This app is everything I have been looking for to use with my students as a tool for intervention and whole group instruction! I use this app in my 5th grade classroom and for one-one intervention. It is easy to navigate and I have everything I need right at my fingertips! No more sorting through letter cards and fumbling through word cards during lessons! 
   My students have no problems using the tools within a large group and love to use this app for independent practice and review. When I am working with students individually my other students can review word lists in pairs or individually at their level.  It is amazing how engaged they are!  I am able to meet their individual needs by choosing from the basic or or advanced level when teaching morphology.  My students are already applying strategies to their reading thanks to this app.
 This app is WONDERFUL!!

### 5/5 — Very useful tool!!

*2012-11-08, version 1.0*

I couldn't disagree more with the previous negative review.  This app is perfect for instructors using a multisenory language program, and the students love using it.   As an educator, I highly reccomend it!

### 5/5 — Thank goodness for this app!!!

*2012-11-08, version 1.0*

I teach and reading and tutor students in the area of literacy. I have found this app to be the perfect tool to include in my small group reading and spelling instruction...I no longer have to lug around my letter cards and/or tiles AND the kids love using the drawing tool on the IPad! I highly recommend this app to educators who appreciate morphology and the essence of word building.

### 5/5 — Teacher

*2012-11-08, version 1.0*

I was trained years ago in Orton. This app understands the value of a multimodal approach to teaching literacy and the need to incorporate technology in today's instruction.

### 5/5 — parent

*2012-11-08, version 1.0*

My kids have been using this app for their spelling work. They actually like working on spelling at home during the week.

### 5/5 — Reading Teacher

*2012-11-08, version 1.0*

I love this app! Until now, I have yet to find an app that works well with my direct instruction reading lesson! It's so easy to use and my students just love it. In addition to the tiles that the kids can manipulate, it also has important words that the students are learning, which makes it easier for everyone. So worth it!!!

### 5/5 — Learning Specialist

*2012-11-08, version 1.0*

A wonderful app and very easy to use.  My students ask to use this app every time they come into my room.
