this has to be a joke. this is literally the worst reading app I've ever seen in my life
app got some updated lessons and open stopped opening. its stuck at white startup screen. i wouldn't uninstall and install it again because then app will lose my kid's progress
Prompts through the entire setup before the big reveal of $75 annual price. I hate it when they bury it like that.
Very slow and laggy
need to pay
not good
videos play nothing. don't buy! I am a real mother of three! not an AI
Did not like it at all!
worst app ever
I thought the app was going to let me read out loud and help correct my reading, but instead it was mostly videos and questions. It also needed a parent next to me for some parts, so I didn’t really like it.
because you have to pay 139.99 for a month well ain't that ridiculous
none of the videos play. it's not available on MacBook, or kids tablets. waste of money. not impressed at all.
Videos don't work and it doesn't read the words to your child. the interaction buttons are cosmetic only... my kid asked why everything was not working.
i don't like this apps, and it want let you unsubscibe
app not consistently working
This app is only useful if you are going to sit with your kid and read everything from every lesson to them. If I wanted to fo that I would just teach my kid how to read instead of this.
i chose the monthly option and got deducted the yearly subscription :( Emailed and still waiting for a response
I purchased a full year's subscription, but a month later, I'm already regretting it. It turns out that this direct method of instruction, in addition to requiring extensive parental intervention (which I'm not averse to), is not suited for learners with attention issues. I'm working with identical twin three-year-olds, one who makes steady progress with help and the other who cannot sit through even part of a single lesson. It is painful to watch. Also.. the audio prompts are WAY too quiet.
I'm not willing to pay for something until I see how it works
well my daughter is never going to learn the end of the alphabet with how the song always glitches near the end. we get to about P everytime then it stops working. otherwise she's doing good.
