SplashLearn: Kids Learning App 4+

Splash Math

My son who is 5 years old love Splash Math. Both parents here love everything about this app. This is a great game. The animation and the graphics are super fun, rich and vibrant. All the characters in the app are cute and charming. To do all of this with keeping learning as the primary focus is not and east thing. This reminds me old school learning tools and the likes. My son needed help with number recognition and through the apps algorithm, it gave more repetitive ways to learn and master the skills. The system know what question should be the next so its perfect.

The progress report dashboard also helps us to know how the child is doing and tailor the program accordingly

The pricing kept us unsure but after checking them out and watching our son counting numbers and doing addition, we were sure that it will be totally worth it and encouraged us to purchase.

We wish we’d gotten to learn math like this. The characters are super fun and the fast mini games that secretly teach math foundations. It covers from kindergarten to grade 5 and we are super sure it will be a great program for our son.

Recommending to all our friends 👫

Many Issues and Inadequate Customer Support

This is a great program, especially if you are homeschooling. There are unlimited activities and you do have some choice as to which activities to do. The price is also great. However, there are problems. First, my experience with customer service was poor. The response was inadequate and apathetic. I asked a question about following the curriculum because I could not find information for parents on the website. Next, the spelling activity is cute, but it lingers on the same words and doesn’t progress forward, and he has mastered the words. I need this fixed. My child was placed in special education and he needs a flexible curriculum. We are doing 3rd grade work primarily. For the 3rd grade Reading Comprehension, the program provides the answers after about one minute. This needs to be corrected. Some children need a lot of time for this. There are no grammar activities, at least in the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd grade sections. The program crashes at times. We rarely use the App, it’s used on a desktop computer. Finally, the daily/weekly summaries are not accurate. For example, it states we used the app for 3 days when we used it for 5 days. It’s wrong about how much time is spent daily as well. We do Math first and usually receive an email stating that a certain number of minutes was spent on Math and English when we did not do English. Hopefully these issues can be corrected.

Canceling Subscription

My daughter loves this app and she is learning incredibly fast. She’s 1 but she is super focused on the content and always eager to learn, so much so that often times the first thing she says when she wakes up is splash learn (in her gibberish talk) I’m not kidding about that. I also like the app, how I was able to build her profile based off of her level of skill, the progressive challenges and the creativity. However, I have two issues that are big for me, that is leading me to cancel my subscription: The constant bugs, and the constant witch craft stuff. My phone is fairly new so I know it’s not my phone acting up when the app stops tracking her progress in the curriculum process. It stays stuck on lesson 1/5 and repeats the lesson she just completed over and over, it goes mute randomly, or it won’t register the screen touches. My issue with the witch craft stuff, my family strives to follow Christ and the Word of Truth. Witch craft is not something to joke about it’s very real and very evil the last thing I want to do is teach my kid that witch craft is harmless by putting it in her learning games. That’s something that might be worth looking into if this company is looking to cater to a wider range of parents and their kids. Other than that the app is lovely, I’m sure my kid will miss it.
