Not easy to use and it's glitchy plus it's a subscription so it's a no from me as there sre better free and one off payment writing apps. The other letterschool app is awesome so I'm a bit disappointed.

Not worth $45. It's very limited for costing so much. All there is to do is trace upper and lower case letters, 1-10 and cursive. I really would like a refund.

It's an amazing app. My 6 year old has been using and loving it for years. It's one of the reasons he learned his ABC'S at an early age and now he enjoys using it to practice writing them! I'm impressed with how easy it has for him to learn writing his letters and now he's starting to write them in cursive!

I purchased this game several years ago. I am now unable to restore that original purchase because it's been converted to a subscription format. This is insulting beyond words to people who supported this app early in it's development. Why isn't there any option for me to use only what I've paid for?

Paid €7.49 to open the letters only to find the special offer on the next part of the game to unlock all for €9.99. Please refund my payment and i will buy the full access. Also the testing stage there are some questions which dont have the correct answer as an option in the sequence section to choose. Please fix this

I like this app and so does my son. Hes been learning alot of letters. My concerns are I have emailed the support team about why we cannot use this on the family link and why its not working on a Samsung tablet that we have. I havent heard from anyone either. I would like to get a resolve for our issue.

I have paid full price for this app more than once. Why do I have to keep paying over and over to download on the same tablet and the same account? 10-23-19 I sent you an email 2 days ago and no one has chosen to respond. I added the review and sent the email the same day. 10-24-19. I appreciate your ignoring my email and my posts. Thanks for the great customer service!

Bad my son does exactly what it shows him. You shouldn't make it so hard for the child to draw. He start drawing like it shows him and what ever design is fallowing his finger will bounce back. Seriously, it just leaves him frustrated and he doesn't even want to do it.i don't blame him I was getting annoyed too.

Zero stars for being charged twice ( £43 for yearly paid in November 21 and recently £4.59 monthly) . Support team have been ignoring my emails asking for refunds. I think it is a rip off for a parent to pay a subscription for the service as it is the same thing all year round . To make it interesting my 5yr old son who has ASD uses 2 phones . One of them has letterschool on YouTube and the other the actual game. Gave it 1 star so that it lets me post this.

My kid adores this game but unfortunately I can't buy any subscriptions on his phone because it's not compatible with Family Link and family payment methods. I've tried everything to disable those controls but it doesn't work. Please fix this, my kid was introduced to LetterSchool via YouTube and he was over the moon when I installed it on his phone but it's such a let down not being able to give him the full game.

This app seemed to be exactly what I was looking for. I did the free trial and planned to spend $45 to buy the annual subscription. However, it isn't Family Library enabled, so I can't even install it on my son's tablet. The "workaround" in the FAQs says to log in on the child's device with your own Google account but that doesn't work for me because the entire purpose of this app was for my son to practice letter formation independently at times when I cannot give him my full attention.

App was great at first for the first 30 minutes. I intended on purchasing it to unlock the alphabet, but was soon disappointed when it started to freeze on the second portion for my child and I. When you go to tap and drag to form the letter it freezes and won't proceed.

My son is 8 yrs old and has autism and my daughter is 4. They play this game together and love it. I think a stylo pen would be a great recommondation for this app so they can learn to write with a pencil and not there finger. They have learned so much from this app. It can be challenging at times but isnt that the point!. Love it! I wish the Virtual Schools had apps like this.

The app is great but i paid for content and I can not access it without proving im an adult. I'm grateful for the security step but the main screen goes lateral on my phone and it cuts off all the numbers I need to press in order to access the settings or my profile. I can only see the top half of 1 to 5. When I select an activity the screen rotates so when I click on settings the same question appeares but I could see the whole question. Suggestions?

I absoultely love this app. It is fun and engaging and helps students to learn their letter sounds and how to form their letters correctly in a fun way. I love that you can choose the handwriting style as well. I recommend this app to many of my students who are struggling with their handwriting.

This game could not be better. The guidance, gentle nudges and the animations make the experience truly engaging. My son loves writing letters for 30 minutes at a time. The fact that it includes different styles of letters is impressive. I have my son use a stylus pen so that he can get used to holding a pencil correctly. This is by far the most useful educational app we have. Fantastic job!

As a former Early Childhood Special Education teacher I am admittedly picky. The animation after tracing is fun, however this felt more like an exercise in frustration tolerance. It often did not work when I pushed on a point and tried to move the the line to the next point. It took me several tries with each letter to get it to actually trace the entire letter. I'm not even going to have my kiddo try this one. I have no room to share the other things that I think could be better!

Kids love app so we purchased full version. Every time app starts the purchase disappears and it tries to make me buy the full $9.99 version again and again. I contacted support & they haven't been much help yet... The graphics are good, the animation keeps kids involved but if they can't go past E or 5 it gets frustrating for them & thus mom & dad. The sensitivity for tracing letters is very exact, it might be better to have a bit more tolerance based on child's age & skill level?

My son loved Letter School & always looked forward to "playing" it, especially once he'd gained a little more confidence with tracing the letters. The themes, animations, sounds, it's all so cute & fun! We recently returned to this app to help my son learn cursive & it was just as awesome as I remembered. We purchased it for a one-time $3.99-ish before they went to subscription model. That didn't include cursive so we had to grab a subscription for that & I was shocked at how $$ it is now! ☹️😯
