My daughter loved the Ello monthly book subcription but since we switched to Ello Digital, she loves it even more. I love that she can read more than 5 books and has a variety of books to choose from. And I love that she can use her points to dress her "Ello."

For my kindergartener it keeps glitching and skipping forward before she finishes sounding out the words.

Best decision I made, my daughter has confidence in reading alone and has gotten so much better as she is reading more.

My son used Ello and loved it. He was confident and read more than he had before and really enjoyed the books that were available. I love how it listen to him and helps him sound out words that he struggled with. We love it.

My children are really enjoying Ello. They are willing to spend more time per session working on their reading than with a paper book because of the novelty of using an iPad, and the fact that it utilizes voice recognition software makes it more useful than many reading apps. My only complaint is that I feel bombarded by emails from Ello.

My children are enjoying the app very much. They are more likely to work on reading for longer than if they have a paper book because using an iPad is a fun novelty for them. The voice recognition software is pretty good, but not perfect. My only complaint is that I receive too many emails from Ello.

Overall it’s a great app wish there were more book selections to choose from. The library isn’t huge and for a reader like my daughter we may go through all the books !

Hi Dana! Thank you so much for your review. There are over 700 books in the Ello library. You will notice that Ello puts forward specific books for a child to read at their specific level that focus on a particular skill. However, once those books are complete, the next set unlocks. This controlled journey assures that your child is mastering specific phonics and literacy skills in an evidence-based progression. You can always access other books in the library outside the quests by scrolling down on the home screen. I hope this helps!

My child age 9 loves the books. She's more independent in her reading and the prizes help motivate her to read more. The only small problem she's having is the app doesn't always understand her because of her speech differently.

We've just started using Ello with our 6 year old. It appears to catch reading & pronunciation errors and helps our child to correct. It does state in the app that it will not correct every single error, instead opting to help the child little by little. That sounds like a good plan to me, and when I listen to reading sessions, I think our child is being challenged appropriately, and corrected appropriately. We will continue using Ello!

Ello is a vibrant and creative social platform that offers a space for artists and creatives to showcase their work and inspirations. Free from ads, Ello's clean and elegant design allows users to focus on the content itself. I particularly appreciate their commitment to privacy, as user data is not sold or used for advertising purposes. The community on Ello is very supportive of creativity and expression, with many artists and designers finding like-minded friends and collaborative opportunities here. If you're looking for a platform that values art and creative expression, Ello is definitely worth exploring. Visit oilpresssite.com for detailed information and the latest products!" flaxseed oil

Ello is the only reading app I’ve found that lets an emerging reader read out loud and provides feedback/assistance immediately and via subsequent email. Just struggling to keep my 6 year old grandson engaged and reading regularly without making it a requirement/task.

Ello has been an amazing tool for my little reader. He has shown a huge improvement since we started and he actually gets excited to read. It used to be a battle to get him to read, now he asks if we can please read one more book! It has been such a relief as a parent to see my little one enjoy reading and to see such amazing progress. Thank you, Ello!

We been very lucky that we had found an awesome software such as Ello to help our son in his reading journey. After being out of the country for almost two years his reading, and English in general, was a bit rusty. We struggled to find a way for him to hold a book and start reading. We found Ello online and we were amazed how fast he got engaged with the app and how excited he gets each time new books arrive with his little present. He keeps counting how many points he has so far which makes him feel rewarded. This app of a top notch quality, which was a surprise for us especially for an educational app. Really smooth software with great feel. The customer experience has been superb. Dr. Elizabeth and the rest of the team are amazing. I had wrote them emails over the weekend expecting a reply on the following Monday to be surprised with a reply within minutes. You can tell the people behind this company are trying to build a great company right from the start. One thing we would love is if the app would work on others tablets besides the iPad. Currently the e-subscription only works on the iPad and my son’s iPad is really old and has many technical issues that it makes using the app on it very frustrating for him. We bought him a new Samsung tablet awhile back but he can’t use Ello on it. Another thing we noticed about the app is that once in a while it recognize a word as being pronounced correctly when my son didn’t really pronounce it properly. It does not happen often but we notice it sometimes. Thanks Dr. Elizabeth and team for this great app. I hope this company really succeed.

My child enjoys using Ello. Her favorite part is receiving help when needed at her fingertips. She also really enjoys the rewards. I’d love to have better tracking as a parent. For example- knowing how much time was committed to reading each day would be helpful.

The AI system listening to our kids is a game-changer. Really smart setup. Obviously there are some bugs (prompts a little repetitive or computer mis-hears a kid with speech issues etc). But lovely and our kids have been using it off and on for two years and love it (I can't speak to its 'results' since our kids are in a Spanish immersion school and therefore their English reading skills are lagging anyway, but Elli feels like a great support for that gap)

It does seem like it will be helpful but there are some glitches in the app where it skips ahead of what he has read or when he touches a word for help it closes it out before sounding it out and we have to touch the word over and over
