NLH56,
Great writing app!
I love all the different parameters you can create to suit the needs of the children/students that you are working with. I love, love, love that you can add your own word lists. I’m an OT who works with students of a variety of levels and this app will suit so many of them. I have just 2 suggestions that would make it just a bit better for me. When you trace the letters they are overlaid with pictures, but I think my students would be hard pressed to identify those pictures. If there was a single picture off to the side and if the “voice” labeled the picture that would be great. Second, when you make worksheets it would be nice to have an option to trace a yellow highlighted line rather than a dotted line.
Thank you for making this. I love it.
Thank you for making this. I love it.
CO Dyslexia Therapist,
Fantastic!
I am a speech-language pathologist specializing in teaching children with dyslexia and dysgraphia. All my clients love this app and are highly motivated, from my young elementary kids to middle school kids. It works even better when I added the TacScreen bumpy screen for touch screen products, e.g. iPad, iPod, Kindle, etc. The word list feature is great for helping kids practice their spelling words and for learning new spelling concepts. I just found the worksheets feature and use it to send homework home for extra practice. Thank you for making such an all-purpose app! My only suggestion is adding a sentence list similar to the word list feature so my kids can practice their writing in sentences. Excellent product!
Sweetswire,
Great learning to write App
I have had this app for about 5 years and it is still working great.
I like that I can customize based on each of my kids different level.
Also, even better with works with the IPad Pro series, which for us is an added bonus as now our kids get the chance to use a pencil while writing.
The fact that they constantly upgrade the app to allow it to be able to be used on various Ipad series says a lot about the company and their customer service.
As a teacher and a home educator, I highly recommend this App for children learning to write or even if they just need practice.

mm11:11,
Amazing!
My son is basically teaching himself to read with this app. He is on spectrum and considered non verbal but this app is acting almost like an AAC for us! Thank you so much for this app—I wish there was a free page though where we could almost use it like a blank piece of paper-he uses a cheap etcha sketch sorta thing but if it were built up in that would be amazing. I would love to help with this I absolutely love this app!!! I am not one to rave about anything and I am thrilled!
Nina1447,
Love it!
My kids 4 & 6 both use this, my youngest to learn her letters and how to form them and my oldest for spelling practice. Love that it allows me to creat my own lists and record the words! Great app, super flexible with lots of settings. We also have the cursive one which is also great. We’ve only had these a couple days but we are very happy so far. Kids enjoy using it and I love that they don’t complain about practicing letters and spelling.
Sorrindo,
Perfect for my Toddler and Kindergarten kids
I am loving this app! Being able to create different users and customize words lists is exactly what I needed for my kindergarten kids. I love that they can record themselves saying the word and hear it every time they are prompted to write the word. My toddler especially loves all the different shapes that get used while tracing the letters, words, shapes, etc.
linnea Mcclend,
Great app!
This app is so fun for younger kids! I downloaded the app for my 5-year-old sister one day while I was babysitting and she loved everything about it! She especially enjoys the little games after she traces something. This app not only teaches children how to write, but also how to write numbers and draw simple pictures and symbols. Best writing app we have tried so far!
Oldwest winter,
Exceeded my expectations!
I bought this for my 3 year old grandson. This is amazing. I don't write reviews very often. But the developers of this group of apps have more than fulfilled the promise of their apps abilities to both teach and entertain. Well done! Beautiful graphics, easy to navigate, endless features! Artistically designed.
Kmb300a,
Great for 3year old beginner
Grandson loves to “play” this. Helps with letter and word recognition as he traces. Made lists with variations of his name and one with all family names. He loves learning to spell and “write” their names too. Can see a perfect transition from playing on iPad to writing on paper as we practice. Thanks for the app.
Annealak,
Well designed!
This app is a favorite of mine wherever I go and meet young children. In my classroom it is adaptable for every learner from those needing to identify letters and sounds to those needing to write their names to those reading and writing sight words. It is Individualized with CORRECT practice!
