I found a cheat on it and I really want you guys to fix it. When I am typing the answer I can just use the mic and say the word. ### 5/5 — Awesome ❤️❤️❤️❤️ *2023-11-14, version 2.0.9* My sister was playing volleyball and my mom was asleep and I no one to practice with for the spelling b so I got this app and it is amazing ### 5/5 — MY REVIEW… *2023-10-25* This app is very helpful to me, before this app I have had to have 10-12 questions wrong out of 20 on my spelling tests! Things seem so hopeless until one night I was studying with my peer. I heard the spelling words in the background of her call, “What is that in your background?”. “It’s this new spelling app I downloaded, I got myself from a C- to an A+!”, “What’s it called?” “Spelling B!”. When I downloaded it my life completely changed, now I have one thing off my list. Please download if needing help! Thank you Spelling B! 😀 ### 5/5 — Good app *2023-07-09* Better than other apps I have used really helpful ### 5/5 — The spelling bee review *2023-06-28, version 2.0.9* It is good ### 4/5 — Vsbshs *2023-03-26, version 2.0.9* Thinm ### 5/5 — Great app *2023-03-14* Create lists, learn words the best educational game ever! ### 5/5 — 👍 *2023-01-20, version 2.0.9* 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍 ### 5/5 — Perfect *2023-01-12* This is an amazing app. Super helpful and makes studying my spelling list so much easier. Pronunciations are great. It would be easier if you could copy and paste a list of words and have sentences using the words written for you. That would be awesome. ### 4/5 — Nice *2023-01-02* Good for practicing but inconvenient because you have to type everything single word in and if you have a 450 word list it will take a while. But it is the best app for a spelling bee out there ### 5/5 — Best app ever *2022-11-30, version 2.0.9* I have my spelling bee in 2 months and I got my study sheet and now I’m in the spelling bee thanks to this app! 😜😳🥵😍 ### 5/5 — Great app *2022-06-21, version 2.0.9* Great app Ivan…how can I upload new lists to the cloud? Can I upload pdf lists? ### 5/5 — Can’t navigate *2022-04-11* Unable to find the easy level ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Review *2024-11-10, version 2.0.9* Make it let me delete the mistakes ### 1/5 — Yes and no *2023-10-19, version 2.0.9* I can’t get my off line list when I go on line even though I made them public. ### 1/5 — 😷🤧🤒🤢🤮 *2023-07-11, version 2.0.9* auugh ### 1/5 — Bad *2022-11-18, version 2.0.9* Don’t know how to play the game with no instructions! ### 1/5 — Can’t see *2020-03-04, version 2.0.3* Can’t see any of the words you type out to practice ### 1/5 — Idiot *2019-11-22, version 2.0.2* I can’t even type in my words because when I check to see how many words I have the program puts me in a new list ### 2/5 — Could be better *2025-10-11, version 2.0.9* Make the font smaller and let us choose the voice ### 3/5 — Spelling B *2023-11-14, version 2.0.9* It wasn’t great you couldn’t quiz all of the words at once. It is really hard to put one word in. DONT GET ### 3/5 — Spelling bee *2020-04-13, version 2.0.6* It’s pretty good to use so you can test yourself and you can make lists but often it says words wrong ### 3/5 — Pronunciation quality isn’t great *2020-02-15* I used this app to have my son try out some words for his 2nd grade spelling bee at school and he couldn’t hear the words clearly. When my son mentioned the problem, I tried to listen in and yes it was very poor for some words and hard to understand what he said even for me as an adult. **Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback, im looking for alternatives to apple’s text-to-speech. For now we can go around the issue by adding sentences. Im planning on adding a way to automatically generate sentences for words, this way its not a hassle on your part. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Perfect! *2025-09-24, version 2.0.9* I’ve been looking for an app that not only tests you on the word also gives the definition and this does just that! It’s also very easy to use and genuinely helped! ### 5/5 — Ez learning *2025-09-16, version 2.0.9* So good app angel is doing so good ### 5/5 — Very good app so far (+ Suggestion to the developer) *2024-12-15* I have to study 900 words for some spelling thing, and so far, I have no complaints about this app. I would maybe like if it could make you repeat the words you missed, though. Also, I would like for there to be an option to check for capitalization as well. Some words on my list are required to be capitalized, but the app doesn't check for capitalization. Some words are also pronounced kind of weirdly, like some of the voices will not properly pronounce certain letters, making them sound like completely different words. Otherwise, this is a great app. ### 5/5 — Great *2024-01-26, version 2.0.9* Used this to cram before national spelling bee and won ### 5/5 — very good *2024-01-21* I’ve been using this app for some time. It’s very useful for spelling tests. I would highly recommend this app. ### 5/5 — Very good app so far (+ Suggestion to the developer) *2023-12-24* I have to study 900 words for some spelling thing, and so far, I have no complaints about this app. I would maybe like if it could make you repeat the words you missed, though.

I liked it. ### 5/5 — Very helpful app for spelling bee studying, could be improved still *2023-12-09* Easy to use, good text to speech, I learned all my words pretty quick, overall very satisfied. Bonus points because I can make the text to speech say anything in my study list. Would be super cool if I could add multiple accepted spelling for a single word though. ### 5/5 — Nice and cool *2023-11-21, version 2.0.9* Hice cine come ### 5/5 — Very Good *2023-11-18* Pretty good l like how you can make your own spelling quiz with this app. I use this to study for a spelling bee at my school and I think I might win. The only negative is that sometimes the voice is hard to understand so it makes me spell the word wrong but besides that it is pretty good. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
