App for Creating Flashcards: Sight Words - Record and Read

Icon of Sight Words app

I have been looking for an iPad app to create flash cards that allow for font size accommodation, as well as text-to-speech, in order to help my students do review work.

I did some research and found Sight Words - Record and Read, which works very well and is very simple. It allows you to add and record new words for free or buy pre-fab lists for about a dollar (we’re using it free). It does not allow for font size change or two finger zooming (I didn’t try it with magnification from accessibility, but it would probably work), but the font is already pretty big and clear (you can change the font style). 
 
Another feature I like is that it has no advertisements and the buttons are very large. I tried Quizlet, but they had ads every other screen with sounds and tiny escape “x” that showed up in different corners each time. 
 

Description from iTunes
