Parents love us:
"I love this app so much. My granddaughter is struggling with reading. I heard about this app, gave it a try. We both love it so much. When my granddaughter gets stuck on a word, she just taps the screen and the elephant helps her. For those who don’t have patience with helping kids read, this app will help and be patient. I highly recommend this app. The books are also very interesting. She’s eager to read them all." – Kathy J.
"She is 6 and has struggled with reading, but Ello makes reading fun. Coupled with us encouraging and making reading fun, it becomes a great partnership and now she comes to me and asks if she can read one of her Ello books. This is a great thing after only one month. Definitely recommend. Give them a try. Our daughter has really flourished this month and made some real progress in her reading." – Jamie M.
"My daughter struggles with reading but since we downloaded Ello she enjoys reading, and it has helped her build confidence in her reading!" – Brandie D.

Great for both my 6 and 4 yo…wish reading rates where assessed instantly
nrenee00
I started using this app for my 6 year old who just started 1st grade and tested “high risk” at the beginning of this year. This book has really helped with fluency. I have another reading app we use with this one that is great at working on blending but not so much fluency. That combo of the two apps is great. Since my 6 year old tested behind, I decided to start early on my 4 year old. That of course is way harder than my other son because he does not know all of the letter sounds yet. I also have him on the other app, but this one he has taken to so much better. He loves to tap the word and have Ello help. The only downside for this is my older son is outcome driven and likes to see his reading rate increase. I don’t understand why you have to wait overnight to see a change. I wish the app let you test their reading rate on demand so you can really assess where they are as that’s how the schools do it, a moment in time assessment.

1st day but so far we love it!
Abasinger
Update after Day 1:So far I really like it. It is day 1 and I feel like most things are fun the first day so I will keep everyone updated! First thoughts! I love how it listens to him read. If he misses a word the word bounces, if he misses it again it highlights the word, then he can click on it and it helps him sound it out. Love that! Also it works on comprehension! Not with questions at the end but with comments about what you are reading as you go along and such. It is also very encouraging as he reads giving lots of positive feedback. And as he goes along he earns stars to buy outfits, hats, shoes etc for his little elephant guy. Day 1 was a success. I set a timer for 20 min and he actually stayed on for 35 minutes total. Note: it is definitely more of a reading app and less of a game app. But for us, that is what I was looking for. Just an interactive fun way to read more.

The best app I’ve ever tried
Saraluvszozo
My daughter has tried tons of apps, pointless subscriptions she would only try out for a day and not get any interest or that much interaction with. This is hands down the first app she loved. I was surprised with how much interaction there was with her and how carefully it actually listens to the correct letter sound to move forward. Also the help if she needs it. I told her if she kept going I’d promise to get her the elephant she so badly wants on the site. Hopefully she keeps it going. Her goal was only 10 minutes today and she herself stayed on for 45 minutes. Couldn’t be happier. I did see one possible issue, if she says a word midway past the beginning of the sentence it jumps forward which I told her was cheating so I have to watch to make sure she goes word for word in order.

Great for engagement and fluency, but needs some major fixes
Olivssss94
My son genuinely enjoys using Ello and it keeps him fully engaged with reading. I’ve already noticed improvement in his fluency and confidence after just a couple of days, which is exactly what I was hoping for. The stories are fun and the app does a great job supporting early readers.However, there are a few things that need improvement. The app glitches often and sometimes doesn’t accurately track all the books my son reads. I also wish there were stronger parental controls. My son can log himself out, and once he does, it becomes difficult to get back into the app. It would help a lot if there were a secure parent login or lock feature. I’ve reached out to support and am waiting for a reply.Overall, the concept and benefits are great, but the technical issues make the experience a little frustrating. If those bugs get fixed, this would be a 5-star app.
