Too quick to finish

This app seemed perfect for my older child who can’t spell very well but within only a few sittings, she completed the whole lot. She didn’t get them all correct, but it was enough to move on. I know she can redo the activities, but particularly for a paid app, I really thought it would have more words so the whole app wouldn’t end so fast.

My comments

I really like this app!!!!! I like the voice of the person reading the words. I like how this app designs the level, and that made me a truly good speller! Thanks!

IOS7

Every since the upgrade to iOS7 my app has not been working! I'm wondering if the app needs to be upgraded as well! I liked it before but until they fix it I am only giving it 1 star cause we can't even open it and we just bought it a few days ago.

Response from developer

Thank you Ruthie74 for taking the time to leave your feedback. We identified and fixed the iOS7 issue that you encountered and we were able to release an update that fixed the problem within a few days of your review.

Great app

This app is really good it refreshes and also remind you how to spell ultimately learning how to write and read better! Which we all know is a good thing

Can you add the test of completed topics? I.e. mixture of different rules

Response from developer

Hi Tat1233, Thank you for taking the time to leave a review with your feedback. We have since released a large update to Simplex Spelling Phonics 2, in which we added two new modes that have the hints disabled. These two modes are great for evaluating a student's progress and work more like a "test". The new modes are: 1. A student assessment mode that gauges a student's current spelling ability. Based on how the student performs, the app will choose an appropriate starting spelling list for them. It can also be used later as a review/test, to evaluate how well the student has mastered their spelling skills and if there is a list that the student may need more practice with. 2. Review mode that allows students to review each spelling section that they have already completed to evaluate how well they have learned the concepts and spelling lists.
