This makes me want to crash out so bad that when I got 10 wrong on tone and mood, I got a power up. But when I got 5 wrong on informational text, it didn't give me a power up.
I just hope I finish power up.

This app is terrible
This app is terrible! i rather stare into a wall for 10 hours then do this trash. It has a ai voice which caused me to mute since it is painful to listen to. When you get a question wrong they act like you just started the whole lesson. I do not recommend this app, if you are a teacher your student wont learn anything.

Its so bad :(
Lexia is often marketed as a powerful literacy tool, but in practice it can feel frustrating, ineffective, and poorly designed for real learning. The biggest issue is how rigid and repetitive the program is. Instead of adapting to how students actually learn, it forces them through the same drills over and over, even when they already understand the material. This doesn’t build skills — it builds boredom.
The pacing is another major problem. Some lessons drag on forever, while others jump ahead too quickly, leaving students confused or disengaged. The program rarely explains why an answer is right or wrong, so mistakes don’t become learning opportunities. They just become obstacles.
The interface feels outdated and clunky, especially compared to modern educational tools. The animations are slow, the audio cues get annoying fast, and the overall experience feels more like busywork than meaningful instruction. Many students end up clicking through just to get it over with, which defeats the entire purpose.
Teachers often report that Lexia’s data looks impressive on paper but doesn’t reflect real reading growth. The program measures how well students can navigate Lexia, not how well they can read in the real world.
In short, Lexia tries to be a one‑size‑fits‑all solution, but ends up fitting almost no one. It’s repetitive, unengaging, and often ineffective — a tool that creates more frustration than progress.
It is so annoying when you click on the wrong thing it blabs about how you should do better for like 50 minutes. Please do something or make the interface more exciting 🙏

Can someone fix this corrupted software? It's even worse than Spanish class
I see that Lexia is trying to help people, and I respect that. This app is not particularly the one I would choose. Here are the reasons why:
- The endings and themes seem to really focus on cartoons and illustrations. This is especially in the beginning, showing 30 seconds of animated animals, and I feel like you are trying to make me feel like a 5 yr old
- The instructions and explanations take FOREVER to explain. The narrator just talks too slowly
- If I mess up, it requires me to do 8 extra exercises. That is EIGHT EXTRA EXERCISES!!! Then imagine messing those ones
- I have to do the same thing over and over and over. The other day, my friend was saying that he got the same question five times in a row
- It takes nearly 90 days (amount of time it took me to get through level 19) to finish one level. And there are 21 levels. My teacher boosted me up to level 19 after I took a test (thankfully 😫). The amount of days: 90*21 = 1890 days. Please, for our sake, lower that amount significantly
- I know everything here and all of the levels are exactly the same. It even has the same lessons. Only thing different is the background theme. Sometimes I feel like an AI in training
- My friends always complain that this is the most frustrating app at school. I literally LAUNCHED MYSELF OFF A STOOL while doing this app.
If you have any questions or feedback, please feel free to ask me or reply to my comment (if that's even a thing).
Just try to avoid this software. Please.

This stupid app teaches me nothing and…
This stupid app teaches me nothing and if you get actually only 2 questions wrong, you have to do like a 5 year side quest that teaches you how to do the questions, and the stupid expressionless voice is unskippable so you have to wait 5 years to actually do the problems again.
