Abstract: This study presents the difference of children's reading comprehension by the relatedness of audiovisual feedback and the content in story applications (apps). Newly developed stories were published into three story apps. Story content in these electronic books were identical in all three conditions, but the type of audiovisual feedback (no-feedback, (content) related-feedback, (content) non-related feedback) varied in each medium. Results showed that users' reading comprehension was the highest when children used related-feedback app, and the lowest when they used non-related feedback app. Findings strongly suggest the significant effects of related audiovisual feedback for children's reading comprehension. Thus, story app developers should consider such findings when arranging audiovisual feedback in story application to help enhancing readers' comprehension.
