We use voice recognition to teach your child to read!

Features & Capabilities

Reading Hero is the only reading app that makes a game out of sight-word reading, while providing real-time feedback! We use voice recognition to tell if a word was read correctly, and give feedback with audio recordings from a real teacher! The app uses DOLCH words, which is a research-backed collection of the most common words in the English language (used by schools across the country to assess reading proficiency). The difficulty of the DOLCH words increases as you complete each level.

It is ideal for children ages 4-8 (pre-K to third grade) who are learning to read, or English learners of any age. Best of all, it is completely free, and has zero advertisements! Created by teachers, for anyone learning to read.

User Reviews

This game needs work on speech recognition and needs a way to allow the child to try and sound out words. It also could be a little more forgiving with timing, as it only gives my son maybe 2 seconds to read a word sometimes before it jumps in and tells him he is wrong. Half the words he says right are recorded as wrong answers too. There has to be a better way to decipher whether the player is saying the word that is being asked of them or not. Could be good if they can figure this stuff out.

Awful. My daughter reads beautifully, no speech impediment and clear. And all she hears is wrong, try saying it like this. Talk about frustration for a young one.
