Couldn’t add my own site words
I downloaded this app because it said I can add my own site words but every time I go to the settings it has me use the parental lock and then shuts down on me. Also the app to add stuff just keeps circling. Definitely has a lot of bugs to fix and I wouldn’t have paid for it if I knew that
Great app
I used this app years ago to help my little patient who was unable to write. She could use an iPad. In researching and trying to help find an app that could help her with spelling and sight words, I came across this app. Now my first grandbaby is on the way and I hope this app is still available for him to learn spelling and sight words.

Love this game
Great app
I am a school OT and use and recommend this app. It is easily customizable between students. I work with the kids on spelling theIr names. Some need to match and the next student may need to sequence, some need all caps and another with lower case-- This app lets me quickly change it as well as have their picture on the page ! You can add spelling lists or use the lists provided.

It does the job
The app has helped my kindergartener with spelling sight words. My only complaint is I wish I could move around the words and not have to re-record the sound.
Wonderful app for kids
I searched for an app to help my son learn his sight words and went through several horrible apps. I’m so glad I came across this one. It’s ad free!!!! That was very important to me. The functionality is perfect. I changed the voice to his and mine. I read all of the letters and words. I also made up some new encouragement sounds and let him make up some self encouragement sounds like “yay! I did it”. He loves seeing pictures of himself and the family as he learns to spell words like brother and sister. This app is amazing. My son learned 7 new words in just a few hours and was able to recognize them in a sentence later on that night several hours after learning them. So he retained what he’d learned and I was so happy for him. He was actually able to read a sentence with all the words he’d learned. He wasn’t able to do that before!

I Absolutely Love This App
My son has used this app since he was 2yrs old. He has learned his sight words and now spelling in 1st grade. I absolutely love that you can customize the words for their growth. I highly recommend this app for beginner reading and spelling.
Add your own words!
You can add your own word list. I can put my kid’s weekly homework sight and spelling words in a list. You or your child can record your voice saying the word and add your own pictures to represent the word.
A suggestion rot the developer: provide a blank list named “Your own list 1 “ so you don’t have to spend 5 minutes first deleting each word manually out of an existing list to add just your own.

Intervention
I am new to this app and so far like that it can be customized. I am using it fair intervention with an emerging reader.
Impressed, Worth the Money
This is a great app. It is super easy for my 5 and 3 year old to use. It’s also very simple to add your own words with pictures and recording. Worth the money for sure.
Just what we needed
This is a great app to help little ones with their spelling, especially the lists of words they bring home from school. The ability to record all content makes it fun and relevant. We can emphasise particular letter combination sounds, making it good for remedial work. Brilliant!
Sight words
Love how you can change the words, how you say them and what they look like! You can set your own sight word list! Amazing app!
Amazing!
So configurable, love it!
Easy to set your child's sight words from school, then you can take pics of the word, and have your child record themselves saying the word, and replace all of the other spoken instructions with your own voice - so amazing, so personalised, and exceeded our expectations of what we were expecting to find!!

Confusing
This uses letter NAMES at a time when children will be using sounds so can cause confusion. Change this and you might be closer to an age appropriate app. Check the list of words used too....
Perfect! Absolutely Perfect!
I finally succumbed to modern technology and this was the first education app I downloaded for my toddler. This app is exactly the simple, no frills, lowercase-word-recognition program I was seeking for my two-year-old. The recorded voice sounds like an encouraging kindergarten teacher who gets just the right amount of excited when a kid achieves a goal. Our daughter likes this one better than the “Endless” series that a friend recommended. I can see her enjoying this on special occasions for at least the next year. I wish this developer had more apps available!

Problems!
Newest iOS update messed up the sound. The game no longer says the letters as the child spells them. This is happening on the 5 iPad minis & an iPhone 6 with iOS 8.1, so I know it's not my settings. Please fix soon!!
This is by far the best spelling app I've found. And I've not had any issues on the 7 devices I have it installed on.
There is one (more) thing I would like to see in this app. In the near future, I would like to see the option of adding extra letters for choices, making it a bit of a challenge. For example, if the child is to spell the word "them" the letters to spell 'them' would be on the board as well as a few extra. Of course, how many extra letters to add should be up to the parent/teacher.
Thank you for a great app!!

Great spelling app
The best spelling app I've found for my students! Much better than Bitsboard.
Thank you for the update. It now works flawlessly on my classroom iPads.
I would like the option to have extra letters (choice of 1-5 extra) to make it a little more challenging, of course with the option to turn it off.

Love it!
The new lock for the settings is great! Now, I don't have problems with my kindergarten students changing anything. I love being able to create my own sight word lists. Thank you for the "as entered" choice on upper or lower case letters! Now, I can have cards with students names and other words! Awesome update to a fabulous app! Thank YOU!

Won't open
I can't get by the dumb 3 finger top to open parent settings.
