I haven’t been getting any of the issues that other reviews complain about, and I actually had the chance to use the app for our child. The app comes with many books for children in it, and it encourages you to read aloud to your child or for your child to attempt to read the words. The text on the app is perfect and it isn’t too small nor too big. One thing I would like improved is the loading times and more features. It could use more GUI elements and more organization. Great app, and I will use this app and hope it’ll get updated and releases new features!

Great free reading app for kids!

I downloaded this app for my son and daughter. They are required to read at least 20 minutes every night and I've found instead of buying books constantly using online reading is a nice option. My daughter had really enjoyed the variety of books, and it will take her quite some time to work her way through them all. The app is super easy to use for the kids and so far we haven't had any issues what do ever. We will continue to use and I highly recommend it for other parents! Available great kid safe app in today's world!!

A Great Reading App
KhanBuddy
We’ve downloaded the Bookbot app recently and been happy how it helps our 8 year old daughter when she reads. We did sit with her at the start and noticed that it took a few goes for the app to understand what she was saying. Also the room has to be quiet while it is used. We’re pretty happy with it so far.

Hi KhanBuddy,We hope that the app adapted so that your daughter had a smoother experience. We've made a lot of changes over the years. If you have any friends or family of this age now, we would love it if you send them our way.
Best kids reading app!
