All the app does is say the name of the letter. It doesn’t even give you the sound of the letter. I don’t let my kids on technology without me, so it’s really not worth the extra step of having the app involved. ### 1/5 — Waste of time. Not working *2022-11-14, version 2.6* Doesn’t work ### 1/5 — Entirely pointless *2022-10-24, version 2.6* When held over a page in the workbook, it just brings up an image of an animal. No audio. No additional learning games or context to the workbook provided. ### 1/5 — Disappointing *2022-08-16, version 2.6* I found the previous review robe accurate for the preschool alphabet book as well. You could scan the page but all you got was for example is a icon of an apple and you heard a is for apple. That’s it ### 1/5 — Book List Not Updated *2022-08-16, version 2.6* The workbooks are fine, but why include references to the app if you aren’t going to include the book? This app hasn’t been updated for 2 years, so no new books are added. ### 1/5 — Can’t use it. *2022-08-02, version 2.6* Sounds do not match the objects. The app isn’t updated to the book version we have. Our book has B for banana but the app is for butterfly. Literally every other letter we couldn’t use the app. And when we could use the app it crashed every 65 seconds. No use. ### 1/5 — Spanish book not listed *2022-07-15, version 2.6* Summer bust! The Spanish book that I got for my child is not listed. I tried to use it without success. :( ### 1/5 — Terrible *2022-07-15, version 2.6* This app only says to items on the page & they’re not in a specific order. It was a waste of our time. If I could give it zero stars I would. ### 1/5 — Hi *2022-06-30, version 2.6* This is the worst I don’t know how to do this do not waste your time on this ok? This is horrible ### 1/5 — Disappointed *2022-05-10, version 2.6* You are only able to hear a couple pages of the book. App needs a lot more work. ## Frequently asked questions about See Hear Read ### What does the See Hear Read app do?
