Alphabet Adventure

What it is: an app for exploring and learning the alphabet with over 400 illustrations.

What you do with it: choose a letter, touch it to hear it's name. Touch the objects starting with this letter, see the spelling hear the name of the object. Swipe to get to another picture or letter.

What we liked: the concept, number and the quality of the illustrations, overall quality of this app. Sound features (names of objects are read aloud, there are additional object and animal sounds as well. Selection of words and high educational value.

What we didn't like: our major problem with this app was navigating around in a consistent way (tapping and swiping may get you to an unexpected place). We believe the producers wanted make the navigation 'easy' and 'fun' but maybe they put too much effort in this area. The 'rotate to change the case of the letters' is cool but we didn't find it particularly handy in real life. This app could do with some more entertaining features (swiping through pictures can get a little boring after some time).
