What’s new
Version 3.5.2 · Updated August 30, 2026
• New sight-word lists: We've added the popular Dolch and Fry sight-word lists, the most common words children meet in early reading and writing. • Smoother tracing: We've improved how tracing is detected and drawn, so letters and words feel more responsive as your child writes. • Worksheet fix: A new worksheet layout for iPhone makes the font size control much easier to use on smaller screens. • Bug fixes and stability: We fixed several crashes and a number of smaller issues to make practice time more reliable. Thank you for using Writing Wizard! If you have ideas or run into a problem, we'd love to hear from you at [email protected]
