Of all the apps that SHOULD have universal access or unlocked text for the voice over to use it should be one on dyslexia. To really expect someone to take a quiz to see if they may have dyslexia and then not to have the option to be read aloud is a bit odd. Please either add an audio feature or use unlocked text for VoiceOver to work and I'll change my rating.
Great idea, but I stopped reading as soon as I saw that colored over-lays were recommended. Too many parents and teachers waste their time on methods (e.g., overlays, vision-therapy) that have been shown to be not effective for improving a child's reading, writing, and spelling. They are wasting their time and money, as well as potentially adding to a child's feelings of discouragement. Read a basic book (Understanding Dyslexia by Sally Shaywitz) and/or follow the recommendations of the major researcher centers.
VoiceOver or an internal text reader should be included, espeically for a quiz on dyslexia. Rating would be 5 stars if this were included.
I'm dyslexic and the story described my life perfectly . Lots of tips for parents and teachers if curious about dyslexia get this !!
