Description
This app is a must-try for parents, teachers, and tutors who teach reading to students of any age. It is also excellent for self-study to improve reading and English pronunciation.
Ultimate Phonics is useful in any situation where reading is taught:
* Beginning Readers
Did you know that many children never become good readers? Reading is the most important skill for education and success. If you have young children first learning to read, you can give them the gift that lasts a lifetime by teaching them with Ultimate Phonics. Just an hour per week can make a huge improvement in their reading ability.
* Struggling Readers
Do you have children or students who guess and skip when they read? Did you know that word guessing causes poor reading comprehension and terrible spelling? Relying on word guessing prevents students from becoming good readers and cripples their education.
A good reader reads by rapidly and accurately sounding out new words. That is exactly what Ultimate Phonics teaches. It develops your students into more accurate, fluent readers with good reading comprehension.
* Dyslexia and Orton-Gillingham
Ultimate Phonics is very effective for teaching dyslexics to read. The app can be used either by itself or as a supplement for Orton-Gillingham programs or other programs designed to overcome dyslexia.
If you are an Orton-Gillingham teacher, you will love this app. It has excellent word lists and decodable sentences, all broken down and sounded out. The app also has a Find feature that lets you look up lessons matching any phonogram in a matter of seconds. This app is a great supplement to any Orton-Gillingham program and is guaranteed to become a useful tool in your teaching toolkit.
* Adult Literacy
Adult learners love the design of the program because it teaches them to read clearly and directly, without insulting them. And tutors love Ultimate Phonics because it's easy to use and produces great results. Try it for yourself and see why Ultimate Phonics is an essential teaching tool for any adult literacy situation.
* ESL and English Pronunciation
ESL (English as a Second Language) students need to learn to read English at the same time they are learning to speak it. Ultimate Phonics effectively improves reading, spelling, and pronunciation for ESL students of all ages.
If you are a student learning English, you can use Ultimate Phonics to help with both your reading and your pronunciation. The app breaks down thousands of words and sentences by their individual speech sounds, so you learn in detail how to pronounce words more accurately.
*** CONTENT
The complete program consists of more than 4,400 words and 2,100 sentences organized into 262 lessons. The lessons are grouped into 12 levels, teaching the entire phonics system of English.
You get the first level (lessons 1 to 50) for free. You have the option of purchasing additional levels one at a time or purchasing all the levels at once at a discount.

Comments on Ultimate Phonics Reading App for Android
★★★★★Trish S· Aug 23, 2020
Amazing app to learn phonics! I use the desktop app in class/via Zoom lessons (it was a life-saver during pandemic!) with my students. They download the app to practice at home (first 50 lessons on phone/tablet-based app are free). It's hard to practice phonics solo if you can't check for correct pronunciation. This way, students immediately discover if they read a word correctly. Eliminates frustration, reinforces their efforts and builds in success! They love it. Great tech support too!

Best phonic learning app for kids and adults who are now learning to read.
★★★★☆Abraham Gumba· Aug 26, 2020
This app contains the material needed to teach reading. It has the sound, words and sentences. However, I think the full app possibly has too many lessons, as it tries to teach nearly every possible combination of letters that make a sound. Also, it is very dry. It is like a text book. For these same reasons, I think it would work quite well with an adult or older child who wants to learn to read. The trial version is free, though, so go ahead and try it.

Wast of time wast of data nothing to learn in this app
★★☆☆☆Alex Edgar· Feb 25, 2023
Paid after lesson 1. I'm sure it is great, but how would I know?
★☆☆☆☆dianna kenny· Jun 17, 2020
I can't imagine that keeping a kids' attention! Super boring narrator!
★★☆☆☆Czarina Manzano· Mar 7, 2026
Voice is too Ai generated, design is too plain
★☆☆☆☆K· Oct 14, 2020
Boring and only one free level then crazy expensive for what it doesn't teach. Needs to be more engaging.
★☆☆☆☆Rafael Gamboa· Sep 22, 2025
I paid about 4 dollars for a small section, but it just stole my money and didn't allow me to do any of the lesson s. This is not right 😕 I work hard for my money.
