Two games rebuilt — a bigger, brighter Snake and Letter Catch Letter Catch, reimagined — a smooth new net scoops each falling letter into the boat with a splash. New sea friends wander in: a playful octopus that inks the water (wipe it away with your finger) and a shark that chases the boat off — plus a surprise disco dance-party when the fish light up the sea. Every round opens with a 3-2-1 countdown, and each catch has its own sound. Snake, redrawn — a brand-new glowing look with real depth, sparkle, and a satisfying burst every time the snake eats a letter. Unlock a big new roster of snake skins — tiger, bee, pirate, robot, ghost, galaxy, hearts and many more, each with its own little animation — and grab a power-up that transforms your snake mid-game. Confetti celebration — a joyful confetti cannon fires when your child finishes, tuned to stay smooth even on older devices. Plus a round of behind-the-scenes improvements for a smoother, more reliable experience. Happy spelling!

Introducing Written Test — a real spelling test at home! Spelling Stream now reads each word aloud (and repeats it) while your child writes it out on paper, just like class. It advances on its own and keeps the screen awake through the whole test and the check-your-answers screen — no taps, no interruptions. We've also slimmed the app down so it downloads and installs noticeably faster, plus a round of behind-the-scenes improvements for a smoother experience.

Your family's English — and a whole new soundscape Your region's English — spelling, read-aloud, and games now follow your device's language: "colour" and "favourite" for Australia, New Zealand, the UK and Ireland, your local voice and accent for spoken words, and "Noughts and Crosses" in place of Tic-Tac-Toe. A brand-new soundscape — a full set of gentle, playful sounds brings tests and games to life: soft correct and try-again chimes, a countdown into each game, and little celebrations when rewards and stickers unlock. Also in this update: • One switch for sound • Read-aloud and voice entry match your region Plus a round of behind-the-scenes improvements for a smoother, more reliable experience. Happy spelling!

This update focuses on underlying reliability, smoother performance, and a better gameplay experience for younger learners. Gameplay Updates: • Smoother Snake Game: Based on feedback, we’ve reduced the density of "wrong" distractor letters in the snake game. This makes it less punishing for younger kids (ages 5-12), allowing them to focus on reaching the correct letters without constant collisions. Performance & Reliability: • Smoother Animations: Optimized our Ocean and Galaxy theme graphics to eliminate a brief stutter that could occur when opening a level. • Profile Stability: Cloud sync and profile management are now much more reliable. Your custom profile names are kept exactly as you set them, even if your subscription status changes. • Under-the-Hood Diagnostics: Added advanced, silent crash reporting. This helps us catch and fix "out of memory" or freezing issues that were previously invisible to our crash tools.

What's new in 1.2.7 • Faster cross-device sync (Pro). When you close the app, edits get one last chance to push to the cloud before iOS suspends — so your other devices see them sooner. • Backspace haptic on phone & tablet portrait. The leading press now fires the same subtle tap as every other key. • Reliability. Profile screen no longer shows "NaN%" in a rare edge • Bug on emoji waterfall where it can trigger twice.
