Elephant Learning Math Academy 4+

I did have to sign in with a credit card but there is a three day cancellation. So I canceled same day after allowing each of my three children to try using this app. The application has many different levels but they are marked with cartoon characters rather than a description of the math function that is taught at that level. The voice is robotic and has a British English accent. It is also very very slow to load each level. And every time you back out of the level it changes back to the first child’s profile. It doesn’t adapt to the expected level of the child based on the age but starts even my older child off at a five-year-old level. Then again my five-year-old had access to what would probably be third or fourth grade mathematic which she selected based on the cuteness of the cartoon character that represented it. I wanted to love this app and I hope they make major improvements such as adding a repeat button for children who cannot read the very tiny word problem Text. The problem should be presented in numeric format and read to the students several ways. I believe this app has great potential but it is not ready yet. I did like that they allowed for sliding fees based on income so that is very helpful as a single parent who does homeschool.

Really not that great please reply

There needs to be a way to seperately set or mute the volume for extraneous sounds (the bells, whistles, clapping , etc) when there is a correct answer. The volume needs to be fairly high to hear the questions clearly (for some reason they are read in different accents). However, this makes the other noises, music, sounds seem VERY loud. My noise sensitive child covers her ears every time she gets an answer right and I get annoyed with these sounds when they are doing the program in the car. Also, the “affirmation noises” (especially the clapping one) seems to go on far too long. A nice little ding, or a voice saying “correct” should be sufficient. I will adjust my review as these issues are addressed.
