### 1/5 — Worst app ever

*2020-07-04*

I don’t like this app It is SO bad

### 1/5 — Deleting app

*2019-02-06, version 4.0.0*

How do I delete this app? The advertisements are completely in appropriate and I do not want my child clicking through on something that is not meant for their age group.

### 1/5 — Adult Content in Ads!!!

*2015-07-24, version 1.4.0*

A very young student using this app discovered that it serves up explicit adult content in the advertising at the bottom of the screen.  Avoid until this is fixed!!!

### 1/5 — Horrible ads!!!

*2014-04-03*

This game was good in the beginning until I found that instead of normal ads, they advertise PORN on a kids app!!!!

### 1/5 — Good idea. But not working

*2013-11-12, version 1.4.0*

Not working..

### 1/5 — Horrible app design

*2013-11-11*

The design of this app is awful. The blank letter boxes cover up the whole top row of the keyboard, so you just can't use any keys on the top. Really frustrated my 4 year old. I just deleted this app.

### 3/5 — Teacher

*2013-06-04*

App is great but alphabet order is incorrect and needs to be changed.

### 4/5 — Reward Please

*2011-07-21, version 1.3.0*

Could you please update this game and add a reward 'cheer' or 'applaud' when the word is spelt correctly. Otherwise a great beginners app!!!

### 5/5 — Awesome

### 5/5 — Best spelling app

*2011-03-10*
