Pros and cons of Writing Wizard - School Ed. app for iPhone and iPad

Writing Wizard - School Ed. app good for

This is awesome! Perfect for my students who need extra practice. Love that it recognizes Handwriting Without Tears method.
I love this app! This is going to be my go to app that I use with kids who are learning how to form letters, develop motor control and write words. It is fun and engaging but most importantly, it has great features that can be adjusted to the users level. Letter size, line width, tracing speed, use of a model and allowing stops are a few of the features that can be modified to make the activity easier or more challenging for your child. This app allows for multi users and provides records of tracings that allow you to monitor progress. You can watch how your child formed the letters and then you can email a copy as well. No ads, IAPs and all settings can be locked. Just love this app!
We really enjoy the great sound effects and the activities that can be played after tracing each letter.
Such a fun app! So interactive and engaging. Love the check of font styles, and the variety of letters and words! Thank you!
My 27 month boy loves this already. He is especially interested in words he uses alot so we just make a custom list and have his voice recording it. There is no better way toward word association. After 10 minutes of picking and writing words by himself, he was able to point out words that we asked him to find. He hast really done that before!
Worth every cent and I love that it is so much fun, I have been playing with it since I downloaded this app - I just remembered it was for my boys :p. I have no doubt my son, who has autism, will be all over this because the animation is awesome!! Thank you!

Some bad moments

Great app! My little ones love the interaction and the beautiful music and colors created with every letter!
My 4 year old granddaughter enjoys the fun with letters and I appreciate the writing options- thanks for a wonderful product!
Great app for special needs kids. I love it, but my kids say not as much as they do! Thanks for your hard work, makes mine a little less hard. A lot of fun for my kids. A+++
Great app. Very motivational . The colors and animation are great . I really like the way you can make your own word lists.
The thing that I liked best about this app is the amount of data that is collected to see how your child is progressing. I also like that almost all the features have the ability to be modified to your own preferences. I just created a word list with family members names. This will make it more relevant and engaging for my son.
