I love the Rebel Girls app! The interface is beautiful and all the story artwork is stunning. The stories are so inspiring and I would recommend for girls (and all kids really) anywhere between 4-10. Also really appreciate the high quality production value, which is hard to come by. The stories are so immersive and the sound design is 👌🏼 👌🏼. Well worth the subscription cost to have access to everything - keep it up Rebel Girls!!

I downloaded this for my 9 year old a few days ago. She loved it and asked for the full subscription. No problem! Or so I thought…She has an iPhone. Even though the app is rated 4+, if your kid is trying to use this on their phone and are under 13 with an AppleID, it will not work. You continuously get an error message informing you it’s not allowed. It’s listed as good for family sharing. That would be great if that worked. It shows up that it is family sharing, but on the sign in page, there’s NO other option to do a sign in except through that phone’s Apple ID if you’re using an apple product. If you try to sign up or use a Gmail account to work around it, it just tells you that you don’t have an account yet and to sign up…with “Continue with Apple.” Back to square one. I can’t even pick to sign in with my own AppleID on her phone because it will only automatically accept the one being used on the phone itself.The free content is great, but the absolute nightmare I’ve now spent way, way too much time on is trying to get this to accept any sort of sign up or login for a shared subscription for a child has been impossible. I’d be happy to fully subscribe if we could just get her phone through the login phase. It’s not 4+ if you can’t create an account. Perhaps you should make Google signup an option or literally any email. Or add a parent login. But as long as it’s someone under 13 trying to login with their own AppleID, it’s not going to work if that’s what’s required.

Calming stories of inspiring women - perfect for bedtime

My kids and I adore this app. I’ve never seen such a well curated collection of stories for children, all about inspiring women. They’re read in soothing tones that calm my little ones bodies at night (without fail!). As a parent I love that the messages they receive right before bed are of empowerment, and they can go to sleep dreaming of all the possibilities in their own lives. Five stars! Thank you Rebel Girls, you’re a life saver.
Hey Rebels! We’ve added a brand-new video player to the app, so you can experience Rebel Girls stories in a whole new way. Prefer to keep things screen-free? Our audio-only stories are still ready for you. Stay bold, stay curious, stay Rebel!
