### 2/5 — photos distorted

*2016-09-13, version 2.0*

I can always use another artic app for my students.  Sadly, this one has many photos that are distorted in terms of aspect ratio.  It is quite a distraction for my students. Please fix this annoying problem!

### 4/5 — quick artic

*2015-07-31, version 1.5*

I love the pictures but wish this app had sound so my artic lab kids could use this in a group situation when I have several kids that work independently

### 5/5 — Great Artic app!

*2015-07-08, version 1.5*

This is a great way to change up artic therapy for my students. The pictures are great. Love it!

### 1/5 — Worthless

*2013-01-16, version 1.3*

Does not open. Wants you to keep registering.  Got one star bc I had yo do this to submit review.

### 1/5 — SLPA

*2012-12-11, version 1.3*

Does not work now, even after an update.

### 4/5 — Quick Article

*2012-05-06, version 1.1*

This is a wonderful app with beautiful photos, however, there are those of us who work exclusively with preschoolers.  It would be so nice to have the early sounds included (b, d, h, m, n, p, t, y, w)!  Also, I was wondering why there are blends, such as /gr/ included in the sections with the single phonemes...?  My little guys can't handle blends just yet, and they know their productions don't sound quite right, even when they get the target phoneme correct (they say the /g/ correctly, but think they've said it wrong because of the /r/ comes out as a /w/).  All in all, however, it's a great app, it just needs a few additions and some deletions (that's why I didn't give it a "5")!  I know I am one who would be willing to pay for more phonemes...say a bundle of the bilabials for one (low) price.  ; )

### 1/5 — How do I get it to work?

*2012-03-19, version 1.1*

I did all the registration and received an e-mail stating that I was registered. Could not log on. Even went back and deleted the app and did it all over again. Still could not log on.

### 1/5 — Registration required

*2012-03-17, version 1.1*

Okay, so I didn't want to take the time to register, but I did anyway. Got the confirmation with name and password and then it would not let me click to confirm, nor let me login.  Serious waste of time...it wasn't worth the $0.

### 4/5 — GiGi SLP

*2012-02-18, version 1.1*

Lovely bright pictures.  Simple and straightforward.  Good for drill. It would Hebrews if it had the option of adding photos.  Thanks, I've needed an app like this.
