One thing to note: the app is super fun for learning new math topics and the placement tests are SUPER ACCURATE. Most placement tests I do in elementary school are kinda trash, while Iโm at home doing high leveled competition math, the test claims that I am at a 50*6 level. Tbh, after I got my base ten results, I was SHOCKED to see decimal division problems. The bugs are small and subtle, but they are still pretty annoying. In the math facts practice, the freckle keyboard pops up, but so does the iPad keyboard. The iPad keyboard blocks the way of the freckle one and itโs just overall trouble. Also, this isnโt really a bug, more of a suggestion: When a student does a placement test for a topic in math, they might score a really high level, thus, they complete a topic after 3 lessons. So Iโm just suggesting you guys to add more levels to each topic, but other than that, the app is a super fun game where you can customize your character and practice math.
Itโs good for its wide range of educational content, however most of that content is only available for premium members. And you cant buy premium unless you are a teacher at an actual school. Itโs currently not available for homeschoolers or parents in general. And premium would cost $2000 a year anyway. Another thing I dont like about this app is that the voice that reads the stories is a robot, not a human. So the reading sounds clunky and inauthentic, especially the โs/he saidโ parts. If they are going to charge you $2000, youโd think they could afford to hire a human to read the stories aloud. I recommend Starfall instead.
Scrolling through the ratings, Iโve seen plenty of reviews trashing freckles reputation saying all kinds of things from โusing real hair colorsโ to it not letting it log you in. If Iโm being completely honest, my freckle experience hasnโt been nearly as bad so far. I feel as if Iโve learned a good bit. The stories are a little too easy, the math is challenging enough I guess and I havenโt discovered any major inconveniences so far that would ruin how I view this app. Sure, it doesnโt go above and beyond but itโs a decent game that could help some kids learn a lot. I donโt think it deserves a 3.3 as an average rating. Maybe a 4.3? The main idea is: itโs not bad, but itโs not amazing.
