User reviews

Fun app, new version

The new version is great! Much more responsive to my 6 year old. He finds the games entertaining and enjoys the rewards.

Noticeable improvements

I played this with my 8 year old niece and she was hooked! She enjoyed the positive reinforcement and found the stories entertaining.

Great new app!

My five-year-old started reading racer during the pandemic. He really enjoys it and I truly believe it helps his reading skills. It is actually very accurate and easy to see when he makes mistakes and progresses him well. This is one type of screen time you won’t mind your child using!

V 4.0- accurate and awesome!

We have been using v 4.0 and are pleased to see the level of accuracy esp. with my kiddos mixed accent! (We speak multiple languages at home). This app is such a great idea esp during this pandemic times when parents are juggling work and school at home. The app helps complete the needed reading time with minimal parental intervention! Also my kiddo loves the daily jokes! I love that the app allows the kids to make his independent choice of asking for help or trying to pronounce a word! Thanks for making kids better readers!

Awful!!

The app doesn’t even give you 2 seconds to say a word before it dings you. It also doesn’t recognize speech half the time. Horrible app!
