The app has a good selection of books and the image quality is good on an inexpensive fire tablet. My one request would be to have a summary of the books read and possibly the date the book was read on the Dashboard section. It currently only shows how many books were read, not the titles/dates. We are asked to report to the teacher which books my child has read and it is difficult to go through each section to find which ones are marked read and figure out if those were already communicated

I had a competition in my school to ise this app and read and get as many points you can get . But there are really some issue with this app- # if you read a story you will get to read it again #you can just move and scroll and the app says you read it even though it isn't possible that some reads 2 pages in 4 secs #in the quiz even though you take the correct ans still it says it's wrong

The app works great for us. We use it through my son's school. I like how it quizzes the students after each book and some give the option to listen to it vs. just reading it. Also, it changes the level once you have completed all the books in the previous level.

This app works well at times, but other times it is very frustrating. My child will be going through an exercise and then the app will freeze up and not let us proceed any further. This is frustrating for anyone, let alone a child trying to learn. The work is, at times, far too repetitive and again makes for a frustrating experience for the user.

Books are informational and interesting. However, their award system for reading books is so disheartening to young readers. For example: To get a badge of accomplishment you need to read 4 books in a row, (1 per day) get 100% on each test. My granddaughter had 3 books at 100%, on the 4th she missed one question, they allow you to correct , BUT!! Everything was wiped out, NO recognition of reading 4 books, getting 3 100% tests, NOTHING!!!! This company is so concerned with perfection!!!!!

Seems alright after I figured out change the settings to keep it from logging out. Unfortunately it doesn't allow multiple accounts which demotes the stars for me. Have twins and I'm forced to go through the browser to login with student numbers and other painful stuff to swap. Unnecessary! Should be able to swap quickly in the menu.

The app keeps crashing on my high performance tablet. This is extremely frustrating for children who then have to read the whole thing all over. It doesn't record the activity that was just completed when it crashes. We've had 3 crashes in the last 4 days, 2 in a row. My child was very upset at the wasted effort that keeps getting discarded. Please fix the stability of your app! This never happened previously.

Great reading app! I love reading and this is one of the apps my school provided with! The app is fun and there are some cool stories! But the thing is that the app keeps updating and keeps on expiring codes/rooms and I don't really like it. Although the app is good and I definitely recommend children to install this app cause it makes them learn and the app actually gives off great vibes! You did great with this app actually!

Android version lacks features of the iOS and desktop. Specifically the rocket is frustrating; magnifying glass, glow in the dark, telescope and window don't function. General complaint is that you don't unlock all items some are purchases frustrating for the expensive ones and the ones where you don't realize you'll loose other items. Planets, desks, chairs, and some other stuff are being rebought again and again difficult for my 5 year old to understand

Ok. But the kids quickly find a way to fake the system. They listen to books then flip through reading quickly to get the points. While it seems they are progressing well they are just messing around with it. I became disappointed for purposes of independant work. It required monitoring. Also, the teacher does not have access to assignments, setting reading tests, listening to recorded books and sending messages to tbe students. This still requires a computer. Disapointing and negligent.

The app works pretty well. But I do see a little bug. In listening when pausing a book kids get a huge button that covers up the whole text sometimes. And it's a big deal for my students as I encourage them to read the page right after they listen to that. It would be nice not to have that big button at all when pausing in listening mode. Can you fix it? Thank you. Elya, English teacher

My son loves the app, he loves working towards changing his character. For him this app is perfect . It is very disheartening that lately it has been crashing a lot. I would hate to lose this for him it makes him so happy. His reading has improved so much due to the help of this app.

Wow. This is such an good app. My son loves this app so much. But the problem is sometimes, if my son has an Assignment, sometimes if she presses it, it comes back out. This app is also sometimes Error. That happened for a very long time. But its still good app. Thanks for reading!

Has been very glitchy recently. My child's teacher assigns this app to use it for spelling test and spelling word practices, but it has slowly declined from having to refresh several times to complete games to not being able to complete games due to it freezing up. Now, we can't even get into the games at all. I give it a 3 because the reading activities work well.

I have to say, from the teacher end the app is pretty good. It saves me a ton of paper when doing running records with the kids because they can take the quiz right on the phone. The only thing that I really wish they would fix is that when doing a running record the scroller wouldn't jump to the end everytime you mark the passage. Otherwise I always recommend the app to other teachers.
