Our Expert Score

95/100

Hooked on Phonics has successfully transitioned from the 'gold standard' of TV infomercials to a powerhouse digital learning tool. What makes this app stand out is its 'Learn-Practice-Read' cycle. It doesn't just throw digital flashcards at a child; it builds a foundation using high-quality music videos that introduce sounds, followed by games that reinforce them, and culminating in actual reading success with ebooks.

The user interface is incredibly kid-friendly, allowing even preschoolers to navigate their lessons independently, which builds immense confidence. The variety of content—over 250 activities and 100+ ebooks—ensures that the material never feels repetitive. From a parent's perspective, the ability to sync progress across multiple devices and add multiple child profiles makes it a practical choice for growing families. It’s more than an app; it’s a comprehensive curriculum that actually delivers on its promise to get kids reading.

Practice Packs Mailed Home:

Catapult your child's progress by purchasing Practice Packs as an add-on to your App (available on our website). The workbooks, storybooks, and celebration stickers work in tandem with the App to help children develop a deeper understanding of literacy (and mathematics!) concepts. Built by educational experts and reinforced with feedback from our customers, the Practice Pack program includes 5 Pre-reader, and 15 Learn to Read packs that include workbooks, stickers, storybooks, and in the first Pre-reader pack, flashcards that are sent to the home, monthly. Subscribers can customize how often they receive these shipments through their account dashboard to tailor the pacing to each family’s needs. Created in conjunction with the App, the Practice Packs allow children to engage in different modalities of learning, review the skills they’ve gained in the App, and practice hands-on skills—like writing and tracing—that are best mastered in a non-digital environment. The result is an immersive program of learning experiences that keeps kids highly engaged in learning to read.

Start your child on the path to becoming a confident lifelong learner, and download Hooked on Phonics now!
