The app is poorly structured and frustrating for kids. It begins quite well, with a friendly bee prompting the child to create a new personalised flower pot, which my daughter really liked. The flowerpot has a number of flowers, with a petal for each letter, that the child can unlock as they progress. That's where it falls down though, because it won't unlock the next set of letters until the child can blend, write and spell words with the current set. For example, the app introduces the child to S, A and T and expects them to be able to blend them into syllables and write words with them before it introduces them to P, I and N. I like the way the letters are introduced in groups but this could be done as subsets of multiple stages; pronunciation, blending, spelling and then writing.

My little can't use this, in fact I have tried and it is impossible to trace the letters the app doesn't allow for the slightest discrepancy and it is near on impossible to trace a letter. I can't comment on the rest if the app because we gave up. I'd like a refund please. I'll try and repurchase for ipso and see if it is any better.

I love jolly phonics however on inspecting the app on purchase even I was struggling to trace the letters as you're not allowed to miss the slightest bit. For children learning to write it is just not going to be good enough to be accepted by the app, and I can see it causing frustration rather than encouragement. Sorry jolly phonics but I am in process of getting a refund as I type. I would repurchase if the app is more suitable for beginners as intended **refunds are in my account click app name n refund

My daughter loves this app however the letter formation is only for right handed children and she is left handed. For that reason I have only given it 4 out of 5. I would give it 5 if a LH letter formation option were added later.
