What Users Love About the App

“Excellent. Engaged my almost 3-year-old from the start. Educational in all the right places, coupled with fun graphics and sounds. Entertaining games that offer good practice of phonetics, spelling, etc. Recommended.”

“By far the best app for early learning of letter recognition, sound association, and beginning of writing basics and sight words that I have found. My 4-year-old learns faster with this app.”

“I just bought this app for my son and he loves it! This was the most absorbed I have seen him in any reading activity. His favorite aspect is recording his voice and hearing himself. My son is not very interested in video games, but everything about this app is very engaging for him.”

“My three-year-old LOVES this app. I check back weekly from this specific developer to see if they have made another app because we love reading raven and reading raven 2 so much! Please make more games!”

“I’m a teacher and used this app with my oldest daughter 6 years ago and it still works with my 4-year-old. It’s best if you sit with your child and complete the levels.”

What Users Dislike About the App

“This is a reading app that teaches kids the wrong sounds. Pronounces R as “eeerrrr”, L as “eelllll”, and a few other sounds that set our child 3 months back. This is a dumb game to keep kids occupied without as much care to learn. Deleted it and now reworking with my daughter to remember correct pronunciation.”

“My only complaint is that there seems to be a bug in a new feature designed to prevent kids from changing the settings. The program prompts for the answer to a simple math problem, but it’s not possible to pull up a keyboard to provide the answer.”

“It would be nice if the voice recording feature improved, coz I can’t really tell when is it recording. Also, letter tracing using the finger is not commonly used in smartphones yet, so I think it is hard to do for a kid.”

“The problem is that there is not and I cannot seem to find a multiple player option. I have a four and five-year-old and wish I could set up different users for each (I would even pay extra for this option!).”

“This app was promising but in a couple of days we’ve already seen two big mistakes. It asked my daughter to find the “sat” and shows a picture of a cat. Then it says “cat: S-A-T”. At another point it asked which letter makes the “O” sound and the letter “o” was not one of the choices- very confusing for my daughter.”
