Best app for my struggling little reader! It is easy for him to use alone. I've tested so many apps, and this one my far exceeded my expectations. I dont have to be on standby to help him use the app. I can easily keep up with his progress and my 2 other kids all different ages. It doesn't rush them to read the passages and helps when they can't say a word by simply clicking the word. I love this app!

when it works, it is great. unfortunately that only seems to be about 30% of the time. the app has issues opening and is currently frozen on both my phone and my son's tablet. when the app does open, it only understands my son part of the time. when it does, it is great and a huge help for him. however, he ends up so frustrated because it doesn't hear him correctly and won't move on.

Hi! We're launching a brand-new, more powerful AI next week to enhance the reader experience, boost accuracy and performance. In the meantime, try restarting your devices if it's been awhile. Readability is resource-intensive app, fully closing background apps helps. We’d love to help directly too reach us at support@readabilitytutor.com. šŸ’¬šŸ“š

I'm a teacher with a reading specialist degree. I was very disappointed in this app. I had high hopes for the voice recognition, but it does not work well. it also says the word too quickly, so kids don't have the chance to try to apply decoding skills (which is what struggling readers actually need). The supposed reading levels are way off as well. The firsr grade level had WAY too many words that weren't decodable and the 4th grade level was WAY too easy. it was maybe 2nd grade level.
