## RED Writing Reviews in Australia

### *---- "No sound when using the iPad"
No sound making most of the app useless.
-- lauracck, 2022-03-17

### ***-- "Help please"
What happens when my child has finished all letters and activities. Is there other rooms??? Or some extension??
I have tried to send this via email from app and it says the email doesn’t exist. 
Thanks
-- Tash 1978, 2021-05-19

### ***** "Awesome!"
I loved this game as a child it was really fun and u would play for ages.although I haven&#039;t played in three years the time I did was fun. My brother now uses it for helping him learn which with he struggles but this helped Him learn.                 

Stay safe
-- awesomemimikp, 2020-04-22

### *---- "Choose Carefully!"
I just spent $4.99 on an iPhone only app, as this developer has two separate listings for its iPhone and iPad apps! Not happy. Make sure you check which device the app you are purchasing is compatible with. Should definitely have a universal app!  Ridiculous.
-- Jeremy Gale, 2020-04-19

### ***-- "App shuts down"
This is a good app but having trouble with it shutting down when you try to open certain pages.
-- celebrateblue, 2020-04-01

### ***-- "Screen Size"
I use this app at school for handwriting and letter formation, the old version worked beautifully on an iPad but the screen size has been reduced and it’s nowhere near as good. Sad news for such a great app.
-- sezza007, 2019-09-21

### *---- "Inaccurate"
Victorian Modern Cursive handwriting is designed to be written on dotted thirds with the body letters sitting on the solid line, tail letters dropping below the solid line, &amp; head letters touching the second dotted line. Many of your numbers and letters do not truly reflect accurate beginning and ending points on dotted thirds. This app does not accurately reflect the lines our Foundation students should be learning to write on. Also... there is no provision that I can see that caters for left handed writers... as some of the starting points and directionality  differ from right handed writers. I agree with previous reviewers that writers should be given less margin of error when tracing on the line. I imagine many parents think this is a beginning handwriting tool....Tracing on lines is not. Perhaps channeling activities could be designed as a precursor to tracing on the line within your app. Also...traditionally...when learning to write letters ...they are not taught in order of the alphabet. Body letters should be taught first in order to embed the correct &#039;tear&#039; shape.

### ***** "Exceptional"
As a teacher and mother of a pre-kinder child, I cannot recommend this app enough. Easy to use, supportive and fun
-- Dot McMahon, 2016-08-28

### *---- "Disappointing"
Students are rewarded for scribble as long as they are in the area of the letter/number. Also, no instructions for how to correctly draw the letter/number. Won&#039;t be using with my class.
-- EduKATEr, 2015-11-19

### ***-- "Pretty good but I deleted it"
It&#039;s really good apart from the fact that it lets you get away with messy writing. For example my 3 year old son was doing very messy writing and the app let him get away. I am outraged and I think you should think twice about getting this app. &quot;rED WRITING&quot; what a dumb thing that letter of the day is too be careful
-- Ex nickname, 2015-05-16

### ***-- "Was great before the upgrade..."
Overall this app is brilliant, but after the upgrade, the state became set to NSW and can&#039;t be changed. I have emailed their support address and asked about this on the facebook page but with no response. As the style of writing varies between the states, it really needs to be fixed.
-- Bellsie321, 2015-01-21

### ****- "Screen quality"
This app is designed for an iphone screen. Screen quality needs updating for the iPad. Fantastic app in all other areas.
-- Prep1212, 2014-10-19

### ***** "5 stars"
Great app for Australian Preppies!
-- RelFos74, 2014-06-24

### ***** "rED writing"
Excellent app for Preps and preschool children who need to learn to form their letters and numbers.
-- Mark 4 Gerri, 2014-06-18

### ***** "Excellent app!"
I have been an early childhood teacher for over 20 years. This app is excellent. I have had enormous success in both pre school and primary settings. Well done and thank you. We love &#039; letter of the day&#039;!
-- Principal &amp; mother, 2014-04-05

### ***** "It&#039;s as easy as A B C ....."
Wow very nicely made app that engaged my daughter. Really like that it shows how to do the letter correctly and gives feedback. Great to keep the kids entertained and learning at the same time!
I love this app it&#039;s the best. When is the next one coming?
-- Martyauslander, 2014-03-05

### ***** "Good one!"
Very appropriate and great Aussie accent. No problems crashing for us. Both 3 and 5 year old love it and can trace easily on iphone. We want more now, maybe some little words to trace.
-- SmilingWinghamMum, 2014-01-13

### ****- "Great idea!"
I love the fact that it offers the correct font where other apps do not but I do wish it was available for landscape iPad as I do not use an iPhone in the classroom and my iPad is always on landscape.
-- Chequer, 2014-01-03

### ***-- "Update please!"
I&#039;m rating this app three stars because it&#039;s a great tool.  It would benefit from custom word lists and in need of an update that is a year over due.  Thanks.
-- amagale, 2014-01-01

### ***** "My son loves it"
Great App
Good value and excellent to be able to have it State specific
-- JRSnC, 2013-08-14
