Excellent teacher of early reading skills – FirstWords: At Home Review

Simple to use. Pronunciation is very clear, and good volume. Illustrations are very inviting (though not entirely realistic). Some of the sounds are clearly authentic. Some may not be. The sounds are not as strong a motivator as they are in the First Words: Animals app. Animation of the illustrations is not realistic. (They all twirl and get larger. None do more than that.) There are five options available to tailor the app's difficulty. (See screenshots.) The "Get More Words" selection just takes you to a screen describing the other apps in the series. The "Send Us Feedback" selection presents you with a communications form to fill out, which presumably you can use to get support, as well as just commenting on the app. This series of apps is the best I've seen in the App Store for early reading skills. (But admittedly, I haven't looked at all that many.)
