Please resolve immediately or I will obtain a refund from the Apple Store and then delete. I have the receipt of payment yet the locks still appear despite paying £4.99 to unlock everything. Very poor i deed. This happens on no other app I pay for.WHY IS THIS NOT PRINTED??????

Hi, Please use the "Restore" button to restore your purchase (sorry, there was surely an issue with the Apple billing server, and the app didn't receive the payment confirmation).The "Restore" button is located in the same dialog you used to unlock the full version (top left button). Unfortunately, I can't do it for you and if you need more information please contact us at support@lescapadou.com. Thanks
Best rating game ever
Miss Bigby
All of my students that found it hard to write progressed in in a month to be brilliant rated like the rest of the class this game helps a lot for people that are very good at writing and it upgrades the writing skills from one to 100. Team game another scene please you are the best writer in the world Bigby from Bigby. If you know develop and you see this, please tell him or her all them they’re amazing developers and they should keep making games like this except like you have to buy stuff to get the locked letters words and sounds it’s quite annoying but yes bring game brilliant sounds brilliant shapes brilliant design as well. Activity at the end amazing like you can use it like moving foot moving stuff down taking the letter apart and putting it back together it’s really cool my class really like it last time we did it they said wow amazing how did you get it? What is it called to download at home? I told them it is called Writing Wizard handwriting practice they loved it they adored it. They didn’t wanna stop playing for hours and hours because then they would get so many points and the more points you get the higher in the league would be in the highest and the league at the end of the month term/whatever you wanna call it would get a big prize chocolate or something like that if they have an allergy to any of that they might be able to get toy you get a prize and if you’re in the school you get really good. This is the best game ever developers you’re amazing that’s enough from this thing bye

Absolutely amazing!

Such a wonderful app! We have used for many years from helping my little one with letter formation to now using to help with the spelling of words. I love the option to create your own word lists and record your voice so that my little one can hear me sound the words out as he is forming the words. Being able to them create your own spelling worksheets to print, at the click of a button is fantastic! Such a super easy to use app with really fun animations to make writing exciting!
Great app
Hobber
Not often I leave a review but this app is great. My granddaughter loves it. I paid the £4.99 I app purchase for everything and as it is a one off payment it is well worth it. It teaches her the sounds as well as showing her how to write the letters (choice of upper and lower case as well as style), numbers, shapes and words. I haven’t explored the worksheets yet.
