Response from developer

Please check your phone/iPad as no sound is likely to be a hardware issue. Is the Lock Screen button on or the ringer off?

Gorgeous app and kids love!

I love this app and so does my seven year old! It’s a great way to help her keep up with her reading skills when she gets tired of books. ☺️

Very helpful

This app is great practice! My son has a speech delay and really dislikes being told to repeat himself or practice sounds he tries to avoid it being the visual learner that he is, and this app helps give all the visuals while helping him practice.

Amazing!

This app is fun, and very helpful for my 8-year-old with articulation problems. She’s interested in it and follows along. Deff worth the price! We “play and practice” every day for 15 mins with this app. Would absolutely recommend to other parents!
