I could not create Mt own list. That's the only reason I bought it.
Game would not let me create a new spelling test
I like the concept of game but goodness labor intensive setup. I wish you could import list and didn't have to record each word .. couldn't they preload with grade/age level lists with cute alien voices?
Its a great app. I have input my daughters spelling lists from school and now she loves playing to learn her spelling, instead of finding it a chore. My only request would be that the lists could be backed up and then restored to other devices. This would mean my daughter could use my smartphone when she can't use my tablet. Thank you
but I am not able to create new lists. Everytime I try to select that button, nothing works after that. I only have one list p/kid, but just spent a couple hours researching lists to make, & Now, I can't add them. I see now this was designed for tablets. I am using a Galaxy Note II.
Fun app for my grandkids learning to spell, and they really like it. But there is a big ERROR - the only thing I don't like is the program will not let me make new Spelling Lists for the same child. It says I can but that feature doesn't work. I would like to keep previous lists for review and add the week's new list.
I actually teach first grade now and this is more than wonderful. I am very picky. I love I can turn off game mode , record sound, create lists, and that it shuffles. I tried for hours trying to do a PowerPoint to shuffle. This app made my year. I only want to see now the word show up much bigger when typing and verifying right answer. I love it.
I really like this app. It makes learning spelling words more fun for both me and my kids. I searched for an app like this for a while and am so glad I picked this one. Would love it if more game types were available and if there were more ways to test like word searches or hangman. But still a great spelling app. Could not do without the option to create my own word lists for multiple kids. Thanks guys. You've done a great job!
My 9 year old was struggling with spelling so I downloaded this app. I love that I can customize the words so that he can practice the words for the week. It is a bit labor intensive because we break up his list to only work on six words a night and then have a list that combines everything, so 4 lists a week, but it's worth the work to see him succeed and he loves playing it because he earns astroids to shoot at spaceships for each word he spells correct.
I absolutely love this app, as my kids do, however when I type up a list, some of the words seem to lose their letters to the next line. This is frustrating. Also, when the kids get to blow up the spaceships, it doesn't always work, even when the bombs are a direct hit. The kids do find this disappointing. When these problems are fixed I'll rate this PAID app a 5.
The game that is meant as a reward after practicing the spellinv words is boring and not very motivating.
You have to record yourself saying the word, which is fine but then when it says the word to spell you can't distinguish between a t and a p sound so they get it wrong and discourages them. Great idea but not what it could be
Wish I could create more than 1 list, it makes me delete it and make a new one! I would like my kids to be able to go b back to previous lists to continue to study...
I am a teacher and a mom and I feel this is a great app. I would, however, like to be able to write sentences which would require punctuation and a space bar. My 1st grade son adds his weekly spelling on his own, which is a great way for him to learn too.
I think this looks a good app but it is not working properly. Having created an account it won't let me create the word lists so it is useless for me. Please fix this as I have wasted my money now.
pls add some new features like “space bar ” on keyboard and able to reedit spelling list .thank you
Each child has their own account with their own personalized spelling list! I created their accounts, for the lists I typed in all the words, then I recorded the words using the voice recording featured in the app. I say the word and then a sentence with the word in it to be sure they heard it in the correct content! After your child gets a few answers right they get to play a mini game, at the end of the "test" it tells them what they missed and saves their progress so they can retry the difficult ones!
My son enjoys practicing spelling words, because he can shoot space ships in between.
I really like it, works great to program his words in from school. The only thing that would make this more awesome is if it would use speech recognition to add and record the word at the same time!
Am unableto create a list. Also it is just atest quiz/game- no real practise exercises
I can't add my own spelling list, nothing works on that screen at all, need to arrow back. I tried reinstalling it = same problem. I would like the app,but i bought it for my daughter to have a fun way of studying. ( Verizon , LGG2 )
Fun way for my first grader to practice his weekly spelling words
This spelling app is awesome and makes the kids want to play which in turn they are learning their spelling words and having fun. It's worth the cost. My 3rd grader loves it. You can put in your words and they can record the words or you can. The take the test, earn a grade and earn game time to play. Thanks for this awesome tool.
My 7 year old son loves playing this game. It is great that we can add in the list of words he gets from school each week. It has helped him learn them for his weekly test. It is easy to use and we have had no problems using it on our Nexus 10.
I purchased this, this morning for my kids. When they got home I tried to put in their spelling words but it keeps freezing. Uninstalled 4 times, restarted tablet, nothing is working. Waste of my money saddly this seemed like a good concept.
Thus Sucks cant het this to work!!
love it
Fabulous for my second grade class. This app fills a need for fun quality games. I have a few requests for the programmers: finding how to add lists was difficult to find after the first one. Please pass code the settings. Faster explosions. Game results or leader board.
I used this app with my children successfully on a nexus 7. Now with a new tablet, Samsung galaxy tab 4, I am unable to create lists. Please advise.
Brought this app for my 7yr old and really like the ability to create your own spelling lists with your own voice recording.
Couldn't add any list of words. Uninstalled app and reinstalled it with no difference. Disappointed with it as paid for this particular app.
MUCH better with the bigger keys!! Makes it more smartphone friendly. My kids like playing this game and I'm watching their spelling scores improve. I agree that more games for practice would be nice... or even just different games for the game breaks. But for now, my kids still like it. I like that I can record the words myself rather then having tts read them.
I love that I can create my own spelling lists with unlimited words & multiple accounts to accommodate several kids. However, game play is very simple. The child hears the word and must type it in. That's it. After a few words they get to blow up spaceships w/asteroids. This gets boring after a while. Needs variety. I would love to see different ways of presenting the word (letters scrambled, word searches, etc). For a basic way of quizzing your kid this does the job, just don't expect it to be exciting.
Seems like a fantastic idea! But im already having problems with this app. Game wont let me speak the words and my son cant figure out which word he needs to spell. If they fix that, and if there were a larger screen for typing in letters, this app would be very beneficial!
When I go to create a custom list the app gets stuck. This defeats the purpose of paying for this App. Also, the keyboard is a bit small but still functional. If they fixed the glitch I would give this app 5 stars.
My son is in there right now practicing his spelling words ON HIS BREAK!!!!!!!
This game would be great except that I was having problems with being able to select things. Buttons were not working. If they fix the glitches I might consider buying it later.
Awesome app makes learning fun for kids
You are able to put in own spelling lists !
