They say interactive screen time is much much better than passive screen time, so use this app instead of having your child passively watch movies. It's well made, fun and educational!

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Keeps crashing

*2019-12-20, version 1.7*

Whenever I hit the + button on the home page, the app crashes. I couldn’t purchase it even if I wanted to. I have it installed on a new iPad.

### 4/5 — Lovely app, but marred by inappropriate ads

*2017-02-24*

The app itself is beautiful, well designed and great for educating kids in a really fun way.
The problem is the ads: there are several ads inappropriate for children - e.g. Advertising casino/gambling games, and the ads appear at a very annoying time and too often.
I suggest one ad at most every 5-10 words, and the ad should appear between words, not after we start placing letters.
It's good that the in-app purchase removes all ads and unlocks all levels.
Also, the hard level is supposed to be free but doesn't seem to work.
I would give five stars if the ads were made more appropriate for kids and appeared less and at better times.
I'd like to recommend this to other parents but would be reluctant to do so until these issues are resolved.

**Developer response:** We are very strict about showing only kids safe advertisements in our apps. However sometimes advertisers play different tricks to get their ads approved. We will try our best to hunt these advertisers and block them altogether.

Your request about the ads placement is noted and we'd surely incorporate the changes in our next update.

Thank you very much for your time and for the feedback :)

### 4/5 — Zu viel Werbung

*2017-01-13*

Eine wirklich sehr gut gemachte App. Aber die fullscreen ad ist sehr oft. Sonst toll für Kinder. Sehr empfehlenswert

**Developer response:** We have plans to limit the ads to the word completion only. We'd make the changes in the upcoming update.

Thanks a lot for your time and feedback :)

### 4/5 — Good app for young kids

*2017-01-12*

For kids just learning to read and spell, this is a great little app. Simple and easy to use. The graphics and animations are all quite cute. The pop up ads are a bit distracting.

**Developer response:** We have plans to limit the ads to the word completion only. We'd make the changes in the upcoming update. Thanks a lot for your time and feedback :)

### 4/5 — Good word game.

*2016-12-29*

The animation with the train is really cool and creative. There are multiple levels of play, from easy to champion. You can earn more coins by spelling each word correctly. Give the company some money and you'll unlock the more advanced levels. Or, you can opt to play and earn enough coins to unlock those levels and remove ads. 

I did manage to find a minor bug: How many coins are required in order to unlock the Hard level? This is not provided in that popup.

I am the second person to rate against the choice of displaying the ads. I wouldn't have displayed the ads between the letter selection. That's a turn off.

**Developer response:** We have plans to limit the ads to the word completion only. We'd make the changes in the upcoming update. If you tap on the coins on the upper right corner, a dialog box will appear that will display how many coins are required for each level. 

Thanks a lot for your time and feedback :)

### 4/5 — Easy to use

*2016-12-06*

Good app to learn spelling. Ads popping up in between the words is annoying though.

### 4/5 — Good app

*2016-11-03, version 1.6*

Alternative voices would be nice

### 4/5 — Cute educationally app!

*2016-11-01, version 1.6*

Good animation, cute design,
Easy to use.
It's good app!! :)
But ads little annoy... :(

### 5/5 — Add some suitable fonts

*2020-04-17*

I appreciate that you’ve provided multiple fonts with capital and small options, but there should be more suitable fonts.

### 5/5 — No match for spelling improvement

*2020-04-17*

There are other spelling bee apps but this is the only one that my 6 year old son keep using. Although there were some ads and I had to buy but much more worth than the cost.

## Most praised reviews (8 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — Improving the spellings

*2020-04-10, version 1.7*

My son has improved spellings of several common words and I noticed he keeps using this app. A message appeared to ask for my comments and I’m telling everyone that this is one heck of a great app.

### 5/5 — Well done developer!!

*2020-04-09, version 1.7*

I’m surprised to see that this app is available on a one time fee and that too is very less as compared to everyone else who’s selling subscriptions nowadays.

### 5/5 — Just reinstalled it

*2020-04-08, version 1.7*

I uninstalled this app accidentally but my daughter kept asking for for this. Hardly found it on the store and now I believe you guys deserves good words.

### 5/5 — Instructions are missing

*2020-04-05, version 1.7*

There should be some voice instructions for kids about what they’re expecting to do it.

### 5/5 — Almost uninstalled it

*2020-03-30*

I saw the ads and I had almost uninstalled it on the spot but then I thought to give your app some time to evaluate. It is one of the best apps no doubt but ads are terrible.

### 5/5 — Better than many other spelling apps

*2020-03-27*

I used around 10 spellings app and finally found this one. This is a certainly an excellent app which keeps my son involved in the learning process.

### 5/5 — Better than shooting in PUBG

*2020-03-20*

My son was getting interested in PUBG and I was afraid that he won’t use any educational app. I downloaded few apps and finally he’s using this one now. Much better than shooting people on PUBG lol

### 5/5 — Review

*2019-12-30*

Great learning app for kids...
