Smart Phonics by Dyslexia.ai

I found the app brilliant to use with my 8 year old son who struggles with spelling.

Engaging platform to improve spelling and comprehension skills

There always a premium slide that pops up every time l try to play l can’t play at all and l can’t delete it at all it’s annoying

This app is very random and encourages guessing. There is a mixture of sight words and words that follow the rules. It is very clear that this app does not follow the science of reading. I am a Wilson Dyslexia Practitioner as well as Orton-Gillingham Classroom certified.

I love the idea of this app, hence the three stars. But for someone with dyslexia it’s very discouraging. My daughter correctly reads some of the words yet it tells her she hasn’t read any of them. I wondered if it had to do with her lisp so I tried and it said I read 0/6 correctly. We’ll use it for the spelling activities and hope that over time the mic issues are addressed.

I can’t do anything with this your premium Apple won’t go away I only did the first test

Mm

It only goes to 5 and I would love it if it would go to 15

The app has a lot of bugs and is very slow/does not operate properly. It completely froze my phone when I was first setting up the account, and during the calibration quit and there was no way to delete or restart the assignment. When we would hit the speaker to play the sound it would take over a minute for the sound to start playing, or it would play when already on a different section and we didn’t need the sound anymore. It’s a great concept and the branding is very cohesive, but the actual user interface does not function in an effective way.

They said that it wouldn’t cost anything but I only got to do one lesson and wouldn’t let me do anything else talking about premium and then when I tried to get it, it wouldn’t let me do it
