I've personally seen the impact of Book bot in my social work in South Africa. It's gamified interface is an amazing experience for learners of all ages. Well done guys, we need to support & grow this.

We tried it without paying. But there can't be any other background noise, or it gets the answer wrong or right. Also, I didn't like how it read the sentence first. My child would just say one of the last words he heard instead of trying to read. When it would read "Steve is the cod hot?" (Or something like that), my son would say, "cod. Hot. Steve. Not." When I would correct him by saying, "That's not what it says. Let's try from the beginning." The bot would think my word was the correct ones.

Soooo very frustrating!!! My kids had trouble with it, so I tried it myself it says your stuck on a word but can repeat it over and over, and it still won't register. I have even changed the sensitivity settings. I can clearly say the word "look" and it won't register. It is so slow it wants you to slowly read one word at a time. None of my kids can read that way. Not to mention they are so angry that they don't want to read anymore. Lots of upgrades needed here!!

This app does not work. Multiple issues. In the conditions of service it says if you want to cancel you click a link in the footer... THERE IS NO FOOTER. Round and round we go, still trying to cancel, and they still keep collecting my money. It was an epic mistake to download this app.

A big tidy-up in the Bookbot burrow!
- Squashed more crashes. They just keep coming back for more.
- Offline reading is sturdier — Bookbot no longer sulks when the Wi-Fi takes a nap.

- A fresh coat of paint here and there, so things are easier to find and nicer to tap.
