This app is a good one! The pictures are realistic ones and for the most part it's easy to identify the correct 'location'. One suggestion would be to allow for correct answer/tap to be 'in the general area' …what I've noticed is that you must be very precise in your tap/touch on the photo. For example if you touch the photo of the flowers in the vase and happen to touch the vase vs. the flowers the incorrect buzzer sounds. To get around this I disable the sound and make a judgement of incorrect or correct and then I touch the actual area so we are able to move on to the next screen. Love the app….just a minor adjustment would make it better. Thanks Smarty Ears!


Crashes way too frequently

This app would be amazing but it crashes all too often and buzzes as if an answer is incorrect when it actually is correct. When you're working with a very young population this really takes a toll on them.


Amazing app!

I have been looking for an application that targets prepositions with a field of objects to determine if the students understand the different concepts. My speech kids love the picture and like to comment on them (i.e. the woman "in" the shopping cart). The app calculates the percentage correct making it extremely easy to document. Thank you Smarty Ears!


great job

I love this using this app to work on prepositions. You provided great customization tools by allowing us to choose what prepositions to work on, what type of audio reinforcement, and if we want written cues, which are very handy at times. I like that data is taken and shown at the end and that you show us overall accuracy and specific data on each preposition targeted. There is a nice info page for anyone that needs to review how to use the app. I would like it if there was a skip button, but it's not that big of a deal. To the people complaining about bugs/not accepting answers, I use to think there was something wrong with it as well, but there isn't. When it gives the directions, ex. "Touch the cat in front of the bucket", you have to touch the cat to get a correct response because that's what the directions asked for. It would be different if you were presented with two separate pictures and asked, "Which picture shows the cat in front of the bucket?", but this app is not set up like that. I like that the developer made it so that the child has to completely follow the directions and select the target that is under, on, etc. and not just the general area. When I had the audio set to 'buzz' my younger kids always thought they got it wrong and would go for another part of the picture so I set it to 'no response' and I would praise them and guide them to touch the correct spot. So far, many of my kids, even the younger ones have learned to pay closer attention to the directive and touch the correct target and not just the general area. I hope this helps. Great job Smarty Ears!


Great speech app

This app is a great addition to my therapy tools. I like the fact that it keeps overall accuracy as well as specific preposition accuracy. The only picture I have not been a fan of is the "find the glasses out of the case". This is because the glasses are on the case and the case is black so it looks as though every pair is in a case and my kids usually get it wrong. I like the different customization options as well. Please be aware that in order to get an answer correct you have to touch the specific area and not just a general area. For example, if it says touch the man under the stone, then you need to touch the man and not the stone if you want a correct answer. I can see how this feature can cause some people to think the app doesn't work, but i like that Smarty Ears set up the app this way. Great job!


Love it!

Love this app...especially for my younger kids and special needs kids. I do wish there was an option for picking which prepositions to work on for the session and they weren't just randomly assigned. Some of my kids need work on certain prepositions, but I'm not able to select which ones they do or do not work on in this app.


Just what I was looking for!

Great app for working on prepositions.


I want to love this app

The children with whom I work are multiply handicapped and for the most part don't have great fine motor skills. My frustration with this app is that they are deemed in error if they don't touch the target item exactly. This in turn renders the data collection totally useless. I also wish there was a way to turn off the comments that are generated when the kids choose the correct item. My kids are visual learners and the auditory reinforcement isn't always helpful. The other thing that I wish I had control over is the time between each new page; I'd like to be able to discuss the pictures more.
