WordTotz is a nice flashcard app for toddlers. It features four main categories – animals, objects, food and numbers. The animals, objects and food that are shown on the flashcards are real. There are no cartoons or illustrations in this app and I appreciate the fact that photographs of the actual things are used. As you view the flashcards you can touch the word to hear it spoken out loud. You may look at each category separately or mix things up by shuffling the cards. WordTotz also has a terrific category called “My Cards”. Here you can create your own flashcards by importing a picture, adding in the name of the picture and then recording yourself saying the word. The process of adding personalized cards was very easy to understand and work through. You can also share your cards through Bluetooth with other iPhones/iPod Touches. I wasn’t able to snag my husband’s iPhone long enough to test out this feature.
I really enjoyed seeing the real photographs in WordTotz and having the ability to create my own flashcards is a big plus.
WordTotz is designed to work on both the iPhone and iPad. I tested it out on my iPhone.
