Lexy Reviews

Lexy is very random and encourages guessing. There is a mixture of sight words and words that follow the rules. It is very clear that Lexy does not follow the science of reading. I am a Wilson Dyslexia Practitioner as well as Orton-Gillingham Classroom certified.

Lexy has a lot of bugs and is very slow/does not operate properly. It completely froze my phone when I was first setting up the account, and during the calibration quit and there was no way to delete or restart the assignment. When we would hit the speaker to play the sound it would take over a minute for the sound to start playing, or it would play when already on a different section and we didn’t need the sound anymore. It’s a great concept and the branding is very cohesive, but the actual user interface does not function in an effective way.

Mm

Good app except for the fact that several of the letters are upside down. For an app that’s meant to help kids with phonics and reading, having upside down e’s and r’s is ridiculous!

There always a premium slide that pops up every time l try to play l can’t play at all and l can’t delete it at all it’s annoying

I love the idea of Lexy, hence the three stars. But for someone with dyslexia it’s very discouraging. My daughter correctly reads some of the words yet it tells her she hasn’t read any of them. I wondered if it had to do with her lisp so I tried and it said I read 0/6 correctly. We’ll use it for the spelling activities and hope that over time the mic issues are addressed.

It only goes to 5 and I would love it if it would go to 15

They said that it wouldn’t cost anything but I only got to do one lesson and wouldn’t let me do anything else talking about premium and then when I tried to get it, it wouldn’t let me do it

I recently started using Lexy with 3 of my young therapy patients. At first, I wasn't sure if it was helpful enough to continue using. However, the recent updates have pushed me over the edge...I really like using this! I especially like the new option to choose the level of difficulty, as each patient requires a different level. I am super excited to see what updates the developers have in store for us. I wholeheartedly recommend Lexy!
