3. Review test scores 3.1 Each time you take a test, you see a detailed report with all the words you got right and wrong. 3.2 Next to each word, you see a green (correct) or red (wrong) indicator so you can quickly see what words kids tend to struggle with repeatedly. 3.3 Next to each Spelling List you see the test results of the last test they took
ADVANCED OPTIONS
Ace it - Instead of taking a regular test, when you click to "Ace it" you have to keep repeating words until you spell them correctly. Since feedback and repetition is the best way to learn, your kids will improve even faster and enjoy it because by the end they will have aced every test!
Practice - The practice mode does not track your score and offers a quick preview of each word when needed with just one click. Its a fun and easy way to get familiar with especially challenging new words.
Unscramble - The unscramble mode activates and develops a completely different part of your brain. Instead of instantly hearing the word and having to spell it, you see a scramble of letters and have to figure out what word they are for. It's fun and another great way to sharpen your kids spelling skills
Review mistakes - With each test you took, you can choose to quickly just retest any / all mistakes. In addition, on the main page, you can always click to review all the words that were misspelled on their last attempt.
Enhanced email submission - Can't remember your kids teachers email? No problem. Enter it only once on the settings page and each time you click to email out the test, the teacher's email address will be pre-filled in the TO field.
Clear Test Scores - at any time, you can delete all previous test scores from the settings page with one click or delete individual test scores one at a time.

8 of 15Honestly I can say this app is the best If they added the feature where the child could write the word with their apple pen I would gladly pay extra
This app is amazing I’m 12 and this is so fun I had a spelling test today and I got every single word right please download I let my sister use it she got an A on her test too you are amazing
I wish the playback worked! It is such a great concept. A review from 3 years ago reported the same issue. How is this still not working?
I have to say that I think you should have like some fun games on the app that will help kids learn to spell new words. So I hope sometime you will upgrade the app and add spelling games on there. But it does help me spell
The recording function in the app is not working so I can manually type in the spelling words, but when I go to hit the playback button after recording the words, nothing plays back
My son was having trouble with spelling. When I tried working with him it would cause frustration and end up not being helpful. I stumbled across this app and it has turned his F into an A. He is in 2nd grade, but the nice thing about this app is that it could be used for ANY grade level since you put in the spelling words. He runs through a “test” on here each day after school. Any words that he misses, he can just retake those words after looking them over. One thing I really like is that it keeps tally of which words he got right/wrong with each test. That means I can glance at the list and know which words he is struggling with. Then I can quiz him on just those two words in the car etc. Last night he was asking to practice his spelling words on here. It has really turned things around. I highly recommend this app for any parent trying to help their child with spelling, no matter their age.
Pro features do not work. Seller is non responsive.
This app is really helpful.
