Sight Words by Photo Touch for Negative User Reviews
✓ Sound?Volume set to the max but the sound was so soft that it was barely audible, which, at least in my chaotically loud house, makes this app useless! I was really excited about using it too because other than that it’s the perfect app for learning sight words but you can’t play if you can’t hear the prompts..Version: 3.0
✓ Trying to customizeI just want to create and customize sight word lists! No response from customer service. Hours wasted trying to do this..Version: 3.0
✓ Doesn’t workCustomised the list but then it didn’t work. Total waste of time..Version: 3.0
✓ Three touch tapTo get to the setting, the three touch tap does not work most of the time. I have downloaded other apps by the same creator and am having the same issue. Please fix!! I love the app other than that. But if I can’t change the settings, I can’t use it..Version: 3.0
✓ No soundWe can not get sound..Version: 3.0
✓ I purchased this app due to customizable wordsI purchased this app due to customizable words. This does not work..Version: 3.0
✓ Good idea?We just got it tonight and while going through the first time the voice sometimes says nothing. Also every other time the words are missing and you have to click randomly on the page. It still accepts the answer. Then there’s the times it says nothing and there’s only one word on the page so you just guess until the check mark shows up. Very odd and disappointing..Version: 3.0
✓ GlitchWe love this app but it keeps shutting off by itself while we are playing. Please fix this! Otherwise I love it!.Version: 3.0
✓ CrashesSpent ages customising my lists and then every time I try to run app it crashes So annoying and frustrating.Version: 3.0
✓ CrashesWould be great if it didn’t crash every time.Version: 3.0
✓ Sound?I can’t get sound to work.Version: 3.0
✓ Huh?Can not hear the words even when the volume is turned all the way up..Version: 3.0
✓ No soundNo sound at all. I did delete and upload again and had the same issue..Version: 3.0
✓ Constant over-the-top praise is annoyingI like the app except for the constant overboard praise after each word is successfully chosen. I'm using it for a student of mine who has Autism. He chose two incorrect answers before he got the correct one. The voice response was a bubbly, "You're GREAT!" He thinks so literally, and asked, "Am I great for getting the answer wrong twice?". A subtle signal like a bell, or whistle would be much less distracting, and more realistic. Cheering, compliments, etc. would be more appropriate at the end of the list, but ONLY if a minimum of 70% of the words are correctly chosen the first time. Please stop building up a false sense of accomplishment with this app. Kids need to know when they're wrong and need to re-think their choices. They will not break, they will learn! I'll re-visit it in a few weeks and see if anything has changed. Until it does, other apps will get my attention for sight word practice..Version: 2.9
✓ Would LOVE but....I just spent WAY too much time customizing a list for daughter and now the app will not open (opens/closes out) if I have that list selected - super bummed!.Version: 3.0
✓ Completely annoyingThe sound keeps turning off, despite resetting factory settings over and over. Deleting!!!.Version: 3.0
✓ Not greatWhile the app is supposed to teach recognition of the word, anyone can use process of elimination to get to the right word. The "foils" (other words listed) are not anything like the target word. This means that if a child can recognize the first sound of many of the sight words, they can use that to identify the word. This is also ONLY a recognition task. It does not require the child to read the word aloud and it allows an overly long amount of time for recognition of the word. While they offer a hint, giving the word itself as a hint seems a little too obvious. Yes, there are some nice features like the ability to change the "reward" words (the current ones make me want to poke my eye out) and the ability to adapt the list; however, I don't believe they makeup for the drawbacks. As a clinician making recommendations for students with learning disabilities such as dyslexia, this will not be on my go to list..Version: 2.9
✓ Custom Voice Recorder Not Working/Unable to see the review text?‘‘Tis app needs to be updated. The custom voice recorder isn’t working. When I play back the recording is cut off..Version: 3.0
✓ So much potential...But no sound. My daughter has specific sight words for her test and I thought this would be my answer to the boring index cards. I took out all the words except the few I needed and added them in, complete with a picture. Go to do the sight words to test and when it gets to my customized words, no sound. A few quarks to record your voice, as soon as you hit record you have to say the word right away or it cuts the word you say off. So I figured that out. Later playing the app/game, my customized words don't have sound so when it's time to select the word, no sound is read and therefore you can't figure out the word. Also if there isn't a picture for the customized sound, it's blank and you won't know a card is even there to select! Totally bummed..Version: 3.0
✓ Love it, BUT...I love all of the apps like this and have been using them for years, however, the customize your items feature has been very "glitchy" lately. It is difficult to record audio for new items and, when it records, it doesn't hold the recording to be used when playing the game. If this could be fixed, you would be right back up at 5 stars..Version: 3.0
✓ JackiePProbably ok for free if you are happy with the very heavily accented pronunciation. I downloaded and deleted and was pleased I hadn't paid..Version: 2.9
✓ Sound stops workingSound stops working.Version: 3.0
✓ No soundThree words are shown. Apparently you are to tap the word that is said but no sound came. I went to settings multiple times to turn the sound on. I could not get it to work - so it was useless.Version: 3.0
✓ This app is exactly what my child needs...I can create custom sight word lists to re-inforce the learning at school ... Just a shame the damn app crashes every time you hit "play" :-/ support please fix this issue!.Version: 2.9
✓ SoundEven with the sound turned on & volume all the way up, there is absolutely no sound.Version: 3.0
✓ Great appLove it. Very easy to use and is inline with what my daughter is learning at school..Version: 2.9
✓ Make them guessNo teaching at all. It just prompts words and the kid guesses with no context..Version: 3.0
✓ Recording Malfunction :(This app is great! The only issue I have with it is that the record feature (to add new words or to create your own list) does not work! Which is really frustrating because I have words I'd like to add. The only other thing is that I wish there was a point system, so then my child knew how many she got right and how many she got wrong. Otherwise this is a great app!!!.Version: 3.0
✓ Tjtkfkrkrk LlLLLllLlThis is stupid.Version: 3.0
✓ Sound VolumeVolume is too soft..Version: 3.0
✓ Custom picture don t workI m not able to customize picture from the camera roll. Very disappointing....Version: 1.8
✓ SettingsI’m unable to reset it to second grade instead of it being on preschool, very frustrating.Version: 3.0
✓ No sound?!There is no sound. Only words..Version: 3.0
✓ SoundSound stopped working.Version: 3.0
✓ Does not workWaste of time, allows you to customise list and then app won’t “play”.Version: 3.0
✓ CustomizationIt will not save my added sight words.Version: 3.0
✓ Good for existing sight wordsIf the word is part of the pre-existing list, it works well. I like that you can delete some of the list words to focus on certain words your little may be working on. However if you would like to add a new word, the word does not appear in the flashcard- only at the top. You end up having to just click a blank space. I agree with other reviews that it would be a nice addition to have a sense of right and wrong words selected to focus on for the future and a timer or signal for kids to know it’s ended..Version: 3.0
✓ Can’t access settings or info on the appCan’t access the settings or info on the app as the parental code of pressing 3 fingers doesn’t work. Shame really as I was looking forward to customising it to suit my child as the other reviews suggested..Version: 3.0
✓ Too many glitchesCan’t get past three phases without the app shutting down. No sounds. Setting on “customized” words keeps changing..Version: 3.0
