## Most critical reviews (6 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Not true phonics

*2026-05-17, version 2*

The letters are scrambled for the user to drag into the correct order—somewhat like puzzle pieces. This discourages left to right eye tracking needed for reading.

The description should say “letter names” instead of “letter sounds.” The voice spells the words after the letters are placed in the correct order instead of sounding them out.

### 1/5 — Poorly Made

*2013-01-07, version 1.1*

Game locks up and goes to a black screen constantly.

### 1/5 — Ripoff

*2012-09-05, version 1.1*

Total rip-off should be sold as a packaged price, don't buy

### 5/5 — Cheerful graphics and voice

*2013-03-09, version 1.2*

Good spelling app. Most apps focus on one aspect, this one covers reading, listening, writing and seeing the image. For education, this repetition works really well. My little one needed some help with the writing, but was otherwise happily trying the words. I got her the animal pack as well, great graphics there, some of them are hilarious. Great overall package!

### 5/5 — Excellent App

*2012-12-08, version 1.1*

Vibrant visuals and perfect for kids

### 5/5 — Spelling bee

*2012-08-26, version 1.1*

Wonderful way to engage children in learning how to recognize letters and words as well as writing letters.  Excellent.
