### 5/5 — Simple and straightforward

*2025-06-26*

No grade levels but easy to determine progression

### 5/5 — Love it

*2021-03-09*

I got this for my preschooler and he loves it. He always asks me to play his letter game. This app is awesome and I recommend it

### 3/5 — Has it's issues

*2014-04-15*

It never says the letter name "i" for some reason. Also, when you turn on Letter Names and Sounds, instead of displaying the letter it's supposed to match with, it'll just have the Play symbol. Kids aren't going to understand that. It should just display the letter.

### 1/5 — I would have to customize the whole app.

*2014-04-08*

There are some interesting graphic choices in this app: some multi-colored letters, some photographs, some drawings - this is so distracting to users and difficult for young children
( the ones I am assuming this app is designed for). Also, not sure if they added a play button to match to the letter j for a reason- but when pressed no video plays. Not sure if that is an error or if it has a purpose. All and all, not sure it has a lot of functional uses.

### 5/5 — C u s t o m I z e --- YES! 👍

*2014-04-03*

Truly created by developers after my own heart.  E V E R Y  app by these love able geniuses is SO fully customizable, and beyond adding your own 'stuff' you can turn on or off category options at any time. You can even record your own praise words for correct answers. What I like very much about this app is the ability to isolate the category to 'letter sounds' and then decide how many options will be displayed. For ex. I choose to have only a field of two display because my daughter has Down syndrome, and while we are beginning work on letter sounds, a field of two choices is just right.  So, the upper case letter is on one side and it's lower case match is on the other side. If you tap EITHER one you hear the sound. Object is to drag the matching letter from the left to the empty box next to the letter on the right side of the screen. Love it. Love almost ALL their apps. Check them out. 😀

### 3/5 — Good App but….

*2013-12-16*

It’s a good app for pre-schooler and early school learners to learn letter sounds and letter names, However I wish there was an option in settings to change the voice over to British English, Australian English etc. Maybe the developers will look into this for future upgrades.

### 1/5 — Disappointed

*2013-11-10*

No sound.. Download another app.

### 1/5 — No sound

*2013-09-27*

No sound. Very annoying. Useless without.

### 5/5 — My 2 year old loves this!

*2013-06-30*

I downloaded this app and put it in a folder because I didn't think my 2 year old was ready, but he found it and has been using it and really understands letters better.  I love that it has upper and lower case.

### 3/5 — Little Matchups ABC

*2013-05-10*

A very useful app but the sound does always work. VERY FRUSTRATING when I am trying to teach my students.
