Is developer responsive to feedback?
Hi, I am just looking into decodable reader apps so only have samples from L1 and L2 at the moment. My initial impression is good, however I have questions and do not know how to get in contact via the app so hope this finds you - I noticed in “hear the sounds” on level 1, /p/ is pronounced more like a puh sound, whereas on level 2 it is the correct soft /p/ sound. Will you be reviewing things like this and updating the app for consistency? I am not the decision maker at our school but know that our school leaders were clear that we need to be very mindful of our pronunciation of sounds to ensure children are not trying to apply over-emphasised sounds when decoding. Now is the time for your app to be “schmick” as there is a big shift coming (at least in the region of Qld that I am in) towards using more decodable texts. Great to see some nice Aussie apps with Aussie accents to support kids. My advice would be to just check that you have things like your foundation sounds spot on and consistent across your levels. Cheers!
