Main review

ABC Color serves as a guide for children learning the alphabet - kids can select a letter and an object he wishes to associate with that letter. The child can then begin practicing writing the letter patterns using the device's touch-enabled screen.

For every letter, arrow marks, guide the child in learning the patterns in writing the letters by allowing him to trace the pattern using the accurate directions. Several font colors are available and the thickness of the pencil may be modified.

The application also lets users send the alphabets or letters as images through Bluetooth, email, or text. The images may also be shared online or used as wallpapers.

A minor gripe about the application is the size of the eraser it is too small. Erasing text using the dot-sized eraser is a hassle. There is also no option available to erase all the scribbles on the screen; the scribbles are not removed even after closing the application.

Pros
Several font sizes to choose from
Several font colors
Excellent for keeping kids busy and entertained.

ConsThe size of the eraser is too small.
Cleaning up scribbles is difficult; no feature to clean up all scribbles

Pricing
