Just installed to try it out. I don't like it. Tried the number 0 And was forced to go the arrows way AND on the trace or it doesn't count. Kids aren't perfect and this application isnt right for special needs children.

We find your apps very easy to use and very flexible as they are customizable. We would like to suggest creating and enabling Arabic writing and fonts into the apps. Good luck and thank you very much!

Everything I said for its sister app (cursive) applies here. Also applicable to both: please give option to order parent's word lists alphabetically, as well as words within the list. Again, love, love, love this app!

Poor navigation. Unusable. Forced landscape mode makes navigation difficult. App options are locked by math problems but there is not a number 1 on the keypad offered! It gives 0 then 2-9? Dumb. I just wanted to print my child's name in tracing letters.

Edit: as per advice given here, i pressed restore. It didn't work the first few times, but eventually it did. I have paid to unlock all features, and it promised - pay once, use forever. But once my chromebook restarted, it forgot that I had paid and gave me the locked version again.

This app requires keen and delicate skills to finish tracing its shapes /numbers/alphabets. Doubt that not many toddlers are able to do it. Developers should know this is not for adults, it is for 3 to 5yrs old toddler who has weak finger muscles. Even adults (including me)fails to trace its lines at once. What is this app for then..?Kids get frustrated easily since they fail all the time to finish the lines. I was annoyed by the fact this is not even easy for adults.

This is a great app for little ones and also big ones practice and improve the handwriting for letters and numbers. I suggest you to use a pad pen instead your child fingerprints so it can feel like using a real pencil. That way they practice the way to hold your pencil too. Love it!!!

Good but just lacks the option to specify whether the letters are read out in their phonic format at only, e.g. "Buh" alone instead of, "Bee... buh". Our child is currently learning lowercase at school with phonetics only so it's a bit confusing hearing both varieties. Would definitely buy if this was included.

Perfect for tremors. I have MS and lost my ability to write. Thank you for creating an app that gives me the convenience of not always having to sit down with a pen and paper to practice. I can practice anywhere. Sometimes adults have to improve dexterity too. This is great. Much appreciated! 👍

It's worth paying the small fee to unlock all options. Great app for practising letter formation. I would love to see more built-in word lists such as the "1000 most frequently used words." It would be great if all the built-in word lists from the Word Wizard app were available in the writing wizard app as this would help practice spelling and writing, especially using the 5 stars setting.

I think this is a wonderful app for kids to practice letter formation and to also learn words. I upgraded from the free version and bought the premium. I did have an issue trying to open the unlocked letters and numbers so I emailed the app creator. I received a quock reply and the problem was easily solved! 🤗

I have updated my review. An issue I had with Family Link which is resolved, thanks to a tip from the app author (on a weekend no less). Thank you to them for that. Regarding the app, it is quite simple and both my kids have enjoyed using it. I would say that the default word lists are a little simple for my daughter (7) but for my son (4) its great. Would be nice if it came with more "built in" word lists. There are some customisation options, so you could add some word lists that include his names, his favour words, etc. It is nice that there are options to export custom word lists, although appreciate any tips on doing this directly to the kids devices as it looks a bit clumsy.

Absolutely best app for teaching writing and spelling. I use it for my 5 year old's Kindergarten sight words and I use it for the words my 8 year old spells incorrectly. I create lists for everything. You can export the lists to import them to the app on another device or to share those lists with friends. Can customise almost anything to make it do exactly what you want it to do. I just wish I didn't have to keep paying for it each time to be able to use it with different accounts in my family.

The best app for teaching letter formation! Is engaging, rewarding, and the formation guides match what is taught at school. Customisable parameters and rewards are amazing for students with support needs. Full version is expensive, but because it was the only app which offered the exact AU font I am trying to teach, and functions I needed, (and it was cheaper than a therapist)...I paid the $7.49. App could do with inbuilt tutorials and improved translation in a few places.

This app has great features for early learning and teachers, specifically during distance learning. However, as a virtual teacher, I'm disappointed that the app hasn't done more to make it user friendly for students to use at home and teachers to collect data. Handwriting is one of the most challenging things to measure via distance learning. I would love for the app to have student log ins so my students can use it at home. I reached out to the company and was just told they don't offer that.

This is a fantastic app. It would be even better if there was an option to include the audio recordings when exporting word lists.

This app is effective, simple, and clean. EDIT: kudos to the developers for helping out with the family share function. Due to how Google functions, this version (with in-app purchase) doesn't support family share, so make sure you purchase and download their EDU version if you want the full version that will also support the family share function. They should probably rename this with demo, don't allow payment but instead just a link to full version if people want it. This would save headaches
