Sound and fonts

Can’t turn the music off without turning all sound off. For use in classrooms that’s annoying. None of the available fonts have a 1 or 4 the way students write it (4 - straight not slanted).

You can add words but you can’t record them

I was excited to see I could add names of our family members and record my voice saying them. While the app does in fact offer this, there is no sound after I have recorded myself. Until this glitch is fixed I would not recommend paying for this app.

Unstable and buggy.

Don’t waste your money.

Sound issues

It is hard to get the sound to work and stay on. Other than that it would be a 5.
