Bug fixes and improvements.

User reviews

No sound!

The sound worked for exactly three minutes. How on earth can they spell the word if they can’t hear it?!

Doesn’t work

There is no way to adjust the volume within the app and even with the volume on my phone turned ALL of he way up, we could not hear the words. It’s a waste of time and money.

Response from developer

We are unable to replicate this problem. Thanks for your feedback.

Almost perfect

Love this app but really don’t understand why there isn’t a way to clear stars on mastered lists so kids can have additional practice

Response from developer

You can do this. Go to edit the list and then you can reset the list (which will clear the stars).

Bonne app mais ne fonctionne plu.

App géniale mais pour une raison que j’ignore, l’importation des listes de mot a cessé de fonctionner.
J’ai tout tenté : redémarrer mon appareil, réinstaller l’app, installer le dernier iOS , rien n’y fait.
J’ai écris pour avoir du support, je n’ai aucune nouvelles depuis... 😕

Response from developer

Please try again. The importing feature should be working correctly now.

Good

There are NO instructions on how to use the app!

But they did answer my email asking for help and I have figured out how to use it now.

Still they need better instructions.

Response from developer

Thank you for the review and feedback. While we want the app to be as intuitive as possible, we are always happy to help, and also have demo videos available on our website. Thanks for using and rating Spelling Star.
