A free lite version of Pogg - a cute game for kids aged 1-8. It stars a little green alien who can do all sorts of things: run, hop, sing, go to the moon, and heaps more! "It is without doubt one of the best games for kids I have seen in the App Store. It is creative and useful, and just plain fun." (iPhone Footprint review) There are 2 modes in Pogg: Spelling Mode presents you with the simple question, "What should Pogg do now?", and allows you to type anything you want. Type in "hat", and you will get a short animated movie of Pogg putting on a hat. Type in "drive a car", and Pogg will do that too! Picture Mode presents all of the Pogg animations as little icons that you can play by simply touching the picture. This works well for kids too young to spell words, and also acts as a dictionary of the different things that Pogg can do. This free version of Pogg is fully featured but with fewer actions than the full version. The full version of Pogg currently has 34 unique actions, covered by a spelling dictionary of a bit over 380 word/phrase combinations. Enjoy :)

Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Pogg Lite at Free against Spelling Test & Practice PRO's $1.19. Pogg Lite also leads on review sentiment (33% vs 0%) and update cadence (every 5 months vs every 22 months). Spelling Test & Practice PRO's advantage is rating (3.5 vs 2.5). On ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Pogg Lite is free to download; Spelling Test & Practice PRO costs $1.19 up front. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Spelling Test & Practice PRO holds the better App Store score, 3.5 against 2.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Pogg Lite has 17 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 33% of Pogg Lite's written reviews are positive against 0% of Spelling Test & Practice PRO's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Pogg Lite ships an update every 5 months, Spelling Test & Practice PRO every 22 months. Both last shipped on November 6, 2026.
