“It’s really quite good. The AI doesn’t always get my child’s voice but it’s great overall. I do wish we could change what books he could read because the first few were like overloaded with cats and that is fine if you like cats but it got old”

“The concept for the app is fantastic. The app itself works decent, but does have some hiccups. My daughter is so excited to read! Ello is a supportive, safe reading friend who doesn't judge if she misses or struggles on a word. She loves asking Ello for help.”

“Granted it has only been a few days but my 7 year old is really enjoying it. He is reading loudly which was a struggle we had with him. Hoping the excitement continues.”

“This app is amazing within the first day of one of my son was asking me to give him sight words so he could tell me the words he was very excited..”

“Great App for children struggling to read. The Application needs more setting options accessible to the users. The text message customer service is great, but would like to make the adjustment myself. I dislike that I am not able to edit interest in the child account once it's been created. Interest change and will like more variety.”

“My 7 year old loves Ello! He looks forward to reading, which has been a struggle. It doesn’t follow his voice as well as I wish, it expects him to read faster than he does, and it picks up background noise advancing to the next word(s). The videos at the end of each book are exciting for him. He does look forward to getting stars but that has fallen short when there are limited options to use the stars on. He gets discouraged when most clothing items are so far out of reach (etc. 1000 points).”

“Ello is an amazing tool for an emergent reader! It would be great for any child that is not able to read full chapter books without help yet. The option to click on any word and have it not just read to you, but sounded out and blended, is useful not only to help the child finish that book, but to actually teach them to sound out and read new words. We really enjoyed using the app, but had some issues with the instructional videos. The biggest issue was volume - no matter how high I turned my iPads volume we couldn't hear the video well and when the app came back on the sound was so high we would both jump. And I wish the videos weren't on YouTube, but actually in app. Might not be a realistic wish, but it would be nice. Overall it is a really great app and I believe it will help any child learn to read better.”

“So yesterday was the first time my son and I used Ello. And I say it was a hit with him. Hearing the app listen to him and at times ask questions was very cool. He loved the points he earns after completing a book. So much so he actually read 3 books in one sitting. This from a soon to be 7 year old, who dreads reading time. He's struggled with reading and sight words since pre-k. Because of some delays, he did not start speaking until months before the age of 4. He's already talking about finishing the next 3 to get more books. I love the videos and the end of books that relate to the stories. So, far we're off to a great start and I couldn't be more proud. I'll be sure to update.”

“My daughter really enjoyed this program. She felt comfortable using it on her own. She was always excited to show me how many stars she had earned and the new outfits she could unlocked! She loved the stories and wanted to read more often because of this app!”

“We were not sure how well Ello would work with our son. He was a little behind grade level before we started, but now he is reading between 2 and 3 book a day and is actually beginning to enjoy reading.”

“Sometimes my child is just talking and the app thinks he reading and we are not able to learn the words. Also the app kept freezing. I love the concept and will keep trying the site for a couple more weeks.”

“I love the idea. I just wish the app wasn’t so glitchy. It’s had my son read the same book 3 times for no credit and then gave him 2x credit for a book he read only once. Seems inconsistent with guidance. The elephant is glitchy when talking at time. I literally reset the tablet and bought a headset to make sure it wasn’t on our end—definitely the app. Would love to see updates happen. Not sure how long I’ll keep it.”

“I wish there was the ability to get more than 3 books a week. I love how the child can click words and it breaks it up and reviews the sounds to help in the future. I wish there were lessons almost on sounds or the AI picked up on letter sounds the child may be struggling with. Also, if there was something that the child was struggling with would stop and sound it out.”
