For children who have dyslexia, this app helps with common letter and number reversals. There are a number of activities based around the common b-d reversals, the p-d-b reversals, and two games, where you can select from other letter or numbers and how they can be reversed (vertical or horizontal).

Discouraging ending to ballon game
Apr 25
Anonymouswhydoineedaname
My daughter was discouraged by the ending of the balloon game that gave “wahwah” sound instead of an encouraging message to keep trying. She was in tears- hard to get her excited about the game w that discouraging message and its 1/3 Gabe options available. Should have an encouraging message to keep kids engaged and to keep trying.

Can't turn off timer

I bought this to help my son with his letter reversals. He also has a processing speed issue. This would have worked great except the timers can't be adjusted or turned off and he can't process fast enough to work that way. Instead he hates the app because all it does is frustrate him. 5 stars if you make it so the timers can be turned off at will for practice. It has potential. We need to focus on accuracy of letters - not speed.

We just redid the app that hopefully addresses your concerns. Please give it another try and let us know how we did. Also note that many of the games have a pause button so that a child will be able to take his or her time, or a teacher or parent can add instruction.

Poor programming

This game could be decent in theory…but it’s clear that the programming is REALLY poor. It’s incredibly glitchy and unusable even for adults. They added a timer off button…doesn’t work. All of the games are very difficult to respond with touch screen. This absolutely should be a free game…but I would t use it even if it was free at this point

Half of the games don’t work or recognize any interaction. Literally a video, not an interactive learning tool. And, they won’t refund either. The two games you can play don’t correctly interact either, lagging when writing or not recognizing any touch. Ridiculous, it’s definitely a scam.
