ABC Genius - Preschool Games for Learning Letters

I got the free version for my 3 year old grandchild. She spent about 30 minutes tracing her letters. She has tried all the free sections so this Grandmother will be purchasing this app for her little ones. She had no problems navigating the app or understanding what to do. I think I will also buy some tracing paper and pencils! Never too early to learn..or too late for that matter.

I own and operate a learning center, and I am very particular about details. I really like this app for learning and practicing stroke order of letters, but I found some discrepancies. Letters should always be written from top to bottom, and left to right, without picking up the pencils unless necessary. The "t" in this app is crossed correctly, from left to right, but the "f" is crossed right to left. The "z" shows a restart at each angle, but the pencil should stay on the page. Other letters continue properly. The "p" shows the first stroke down, then picks back up to the top for the circle. Other similar letters are correct. The "y" shows to make a "v" then track back down the same line for the long line. I believe that letter is usually taught and more neatly written by little ones as two strokes. It's hard for them to neatly write over the angled line. I would recommend this to my parents, but the discrepancies would be too hard to explain.

Compared to many other free letter learning apps this one is more helpful. My 4 year old struggles learning letters, but likes this game and I can tell it’s helping her learn after only a few uses. I am impressed!! Definitely try this one!

I was pleased with this app until I purchased the additional content. It works fine on my iPhone but doesn’t register on my iPad. This is after reinstalling, logging out and back in, and other typical troubleshooting techniques. Alligator Apps says they have “heroic support” but this must be a joke because they’ve ignored over 6 emails from me over the last month. Beware of this app if you want your kids to use it across multiple devices.

Great app. My child liked it a lot. The graphics are fun. The games get more challenging as they progress and that keeps her interest. She is motivated to keep going and excited for the next games.
