Reading Eggs

Horrible Cancellation Process

another disappointed clieng

Buyer beware - A simple click to sign-up but the monthly charge is not easy to cancel. Good luck getting a refund for the months of 0 activity on a subscription that was supposed to be cancelled.

I have an 8+, it is fully updated. I have a membership through my children’s charter school that is valid. The app would not load. Said something about no connection to host server, and wouldn’t load. So I deleted to reinstall and now it won’t even download. I have over 3/4 storage left in my phone so not that.

Love the content, hate the bugs

So often the sound quits working in the app preventing us from doing lessons. Also the button that says the words is too close to the picture and when the child tries to hear the word he ends up accidentally choosing the picture and often getting it wrong.

No sound

I love this app but for the past week it has played no sound for my son and constantly logs out to were I need to login. I have deleted and reinstalled is with no success.

Great program needs to be better localized for US market

This is a wonderful, phonics based reading program that has done wonders for my 6yo son’s reading in a week. He wakes up asking to play it and I really amazed at his progress. I would absolutely recommend this program to other parents although it does need some updates to really work for a US audience of children. I believe that this program started in Australia and many of the voiceovers are still in an Australian accent. This can be hard for a young American child to understand when they are already concentrating on matching spoken to written words. This issue strikes me as particularly easy to fix as other voiceovers are already in an American accent. The other thing that should be localized is that the program repeatedly shows a picture of “chips” or, as we call them, French Fries and calls them chips. This is confusing especially because in the very next lesson a bag of potato chips are called chips so they did make that change (probably as it didn’t require reanimation) instead of still calling them crisps. I had to keep telling my son what they meant by “chips” in each picture. I have a feeling that the American version of this program is a work in progress being updated on a rolling basis.

Excellent Product....when it works

I have been using reading eggs for 3 years now and I absolutely love it because there are so many activities both easy and challenging. However, it doesn’t work well. I downloaded app and 99% of the time there is no audio. Now what sense does it make if there is no audio? My child has been using this for 3 years now and of course she tired of reading eggs so I have to coerce and bribe her to use, only to open the app and there’s no audio!!!!!! Now that was a complete waste of my time to bribe her!!!!! Using it on laptop is much better, but child wants to use her iPad to do her activities, even though there are glitches there sometimes too. I have been having this issue for over a year now. Support sent a response which was not helpful when I contacted them. Please address this issue, as this is one of the best educational app on market today. After this issue is rectified, then it will be a definite 5 star, but for now I have to rate as 2.

unspeakably fan

Great game but the sound needs to be fixed in the app

We love this game for our kids they are 3,5, and 7!! The app is terrible it will play sounds for somethings and half the time it won’t make any noise at all. We try closing out of it and that doesn’t make a difference, I end up having to use the computer and it’s to hard on the computer for my 3 year old!

Best learning app ever by cooper titus

I have been teaching for years and I finally found a app that kids love first I thought It was just reading but then looking at it I was like let's give it a try and it turned out it was learning there learning things above there age I teach pre-k and some of them are learning how to read and count to 1000 it's more than a pre-Ker could ever know

I love this app ( when it works)

This is a great app but ever since downloading it and subscribing I am having constant problems with it loading properly and moving through pages. It seems to get stuck quite often and several times I have gotten and “uh oh” error page. I’ve had to uninstall and install several times. There must be some bugs need the app that need fixing. If it worked seamlessly I would give it 5 stars. My son- who dreads reading- likes playing this and doesn’t feel like he’s being taught a lesson by a teacher. Please fix the bugs in this app and I’ll be happy!
