Great concept!
This app can be invaluable to my special education students with language difficulties to help them spell words correctly. HOWEVER, it needs to have audio!!! My students can spell phonetically, but are not able to recognize the correctly spelled word from the list offered. They need to be able to touch the words and hear them pronounced in order to choose the word they are trying to write. Please add this feature, even if the iPod has to be online to get the audio! I am finding that the app does a great job offering the word they are trying to spell, and with audio to help them find it this will be a fantastic tool. With audio it will definately get 5 stars!

not helpful
I tried two phonetically spelled words, akshul and boteek. Neither one gave any suggestions. (actual and boutique). When I tried buk, I got a long list of words that started with b so my conclusion is you get lots of suggestions or no suggestions.....not very helpful to a struggling speller.
