So my review was removed. It worked great for the first month. A month later it stopped working for my daughter she would be in tears and got in the habit of shouting the word at the tablet. I tired on multiple tablets and phones with head phones. Now i the last week I sit […]

What an awesome application. It allowed the kids to build confidence in their independent reading and as a bonus my kiddo with speech issues really had to focus on his speech so the ai could understand him.

It I could give 0 stars I would. this app just frustrates struggling readers by not letting them sound the word out and despite them saying the word not picking up on it.

The app froze and would not let us in it kept asking for us to subscribe even though we have already subscribed. It seemed like it was going to be decent, but it did miss words that my son said correctly

My son struggles with speech delays that affect how he hears and forms sounds. He also has dyslexia. Reading has been a mountain he could not conquer. In just a few short weeks of using this app he has improved so much. Seeing his confidence grow and hearing him sound out the words and read […]

this app is bad on so many levels. max time for the kids to sound out a difficult word is seven seconds. The K level books are harder than they should be. When it has to help with a difficult word, it doesn’t sound out the word for the kid so they can learn how […]

My country uses the UK language. But despite choosing the UK tutor voice, the words are still being read using the US language. So i have to always correct my son. And sometimes when my son says a word, the app is unable to recognise his voice and kept asking him to repeat the words. […]

What I love about this app is that readability allows your child to read books and passages that are at a level that they are at. The book highlights the word you are supposed to be reading aloud as it listens to your words it will also help you along as well. For example, if […]

Need to boost the volume. The app is great for kids needing a little more help with reading in a fun quick way. The app helps them read with fluency and teaches words they may not know how to pronounce/ helps to correct their pronunciation. My child enjoys using this app however at times the […]

You’re supposed to repeat sight words to the AI, and it literally never hears you. It’s really hard to learn when you’re stuck on something the child already knows, and the AI will not let you move past it. Both my daughter and I find it very frustrating. Luckily, I didn’t pay for this, and […]

The app is okay and easy to use. The kids liked it but my issue is after the free trial I paid for 1 month to continue to try it with the kids. They were not interested anymore so I cancelled. It says I can continue to use until the end month but when I […]

This app has been a blessing! It has been very helpful in boosting my dyslexic child’s confidence in his ability to read aloud in class. The AI isn’t perfect, occasional problems similar to using voice commands on a remote, Alexa or dictating with Word or texts. Hasn’t been overly frustrating since he is used to […]

At the moment I’ll have to rate this app as a 3. I was really enjoying this app and all the information given. My children really enjoy using it as well and enjoy the books. I give it 3 for now because if the kids press buttons too fast, they can accidentally delete their profile […]

This app was ok. The concept is great. But it doesn’t understand or register the word “the” when either of us say it in either variation and then when my kid says “um” it counts like 3 words he didn’t say. The receptor needs work. After he read about 10 books the library jumped from […]

Waste of money and your kids time! The AI has a hard time understanding the children correctly and causes more frustration than help. If you talk with a foreign accent it will understand it better. The book library doesn’t narrow down the selection to the level you choose. It let’s them choose books that are […]

This app is a great idea and we were so excited to try it. I wish it worked better! As it is, it’s mostly just frustrating. It constantly freezes up and doesn’t pick up what my child is saying. It keeps correcting him when he’s actually reading the word, which just discourages him. Also, I […]

Best app for my struggling little reader! It is easy for him to use alone. I’ve tested so many apps, and this one my far exceeded my expectations. I dont have to be on standby to help him use the app. I can easily keep up with his progress and my 2 other kids all […]

I really want to love this app, but after 3 weeks, we are still having consistent issues with the AI recognizing/hearing many words my child reads. It is frustrating for both of us to have to wait for the app to move on from words that it doesn’t recognize. This seems like an issue that […]

I’m a teacher with a reading specialist degree. I was very disappointed in this app. I had high hopes for the voice recognition, but it does not work well. it also says the word too quickly, so kids don’t have the chance to try to apply decoding skills (which is what struggling readers actually need). […]

when it works, it is great. unfortunately that only seems to be about 30% of the time. the app has issues opening and is currently frozen on both my phone and my son’s tablet. when the app does open, it only understands my son part of the time. when it does, it is great and […]
