This app is perfect for my 8 year old grandson learning cursive. He hated printing and we had a hard time getting him to write at all. This app is so fun he loves learning the letters and seeing all the great animation thank you for putting this together. I did not mind paying for the extras either as it is very much worth the price and not expensive compared if we had to purchase with a book oh and the ability to print out worksheets with our own words is great! Just wish we could repeat the words a few times for practice on the punted copy.
Developer Response
Thanks for your review! If you want to repeat words, you can just add the word several times in the word list. You can contact us at support@lescapadou.com if you need more help.
You get the first five letters
MyUnbreakableSpirit2008
I really had hopes that this would be a fantastic app for my kiddos. You get the first 5 letters unlocked after that you MUST pay! They give you a multiplication problem to answer. So I’m thinking you must have to answer a math question to unlock the letter. So we answer, then it pops up showing you have to pay. Sad. It’s not good enough for me to want to buy. Think before you download and allow access to your information only to delete soon thereafter.Like I said extremely limited on what they offer you. I did find another app which is way better allowing you to see YOUR actual placement of your writing. Not something you slide your finger on and it ends up perfect looking. I downloaded a totally free no restrictions app called cursive writing. Much happier.Side note for the developer..... isn’t the point of being able to review apps so that others can leave their own feelings? Rate how they feel? To help others? You don’t seem very nice with your responses. Twice now. Please don’t feel so attacked and feel you need to attack. This is just how I feel. Everybody has a right to their opinion. Please accept mine for how I feel.
Developer Response
Hello, there is a setting to show the actual placement of your writing. Actually, this app offers a lot of settings to suit every child's needs and showing the tracing only on the model or not is one of these. Sorry, we don't offer an ad-supported version. Our policy is to not use ads and user tracking, but we need to make a living like everybody. So we offer free stuff (all shapes, 5 letters, 5 numbers, and 5 words) and if you like the app, we ask for a one-time payment (no subscription) to add your own words, unlock all letters and create worksheets to print
Very well done with entertaining animations
MyyyyyyNickname
This is perfect for teaching children cursive (I paid for the full version). I have my kids use it with the Apple Pencil so the skill will transfer over to real life writing with pen and paper, and it does. The instructions are straightforward and simple enough I didn’t have to explain to my five-year-old—she didn’t need my help at all. And the animations are dope. They remind me of those bubble things you buy for your desk for people to play with or old Windows screensavers. They are interactive and oddly satisfying.
Great app!

Just was I was looking for to help my 4.5 year old. I homeschool 6 children and needed a good app to serve as a second “teacher” while I work with his older brothers and sisters. This app is perfect! Very flexible, customizable for whatever level he is studying and virtually hands free for me. I love that the cursive is more traditional and has the beginning under curve strokes for the lowercase letters. Well worth the $5! Thank you!

Thanks! We are also a homeschooling family creating apps for our kids :-)
• New sight-word lists: We've added the popular Dolch and Fry sight-word lists, the most common words children meet in early reading and writing.
• Smoother tracing: We've improved how tracing is detected and drawn, so letters and words feel more responsive as your child writes.
• Bug fixes and stability: We fixed several crashes and a number of smaller issues to make practice time more reliable.
Thank you for using Writing Wizard! If you have ideas or run into a problem, we'd love to hear from you at support@lescapadou.com
