More than 1 million downloads for this app and also 9000 have reviewed this app as it is helping their children to enhance their skill using our own language. Almost everyone reviewed in a positive way that it is the best app to use.
Many people have been asking to include more number of languages in this app as it contains only eight languages. So people who know languages other than this will not be able to get their own language. But they can use English as a speech-language.
So as I personally downloaded this app and using it for a week. Actually, this will definitely help your children to improve their speaking ability in English and also they will have some fun by using this app.
I have found that it is designed colourfully to attract children, and also it is full of cartoon pictures to attract children. So children will be happy to use this app, and they will speak aloud. This will encourage them to spend more time using this app, and they will gain more confidence to read.
