Pleasantly Surprised
Jul 2

I am honestly pleasantly surprised! I have 3 kids who look forward to using this app everyday. It is fun, friendly and very engaging. The app is simple and easy to use. I like how the curriculum is broken down. It follows the appropriate grade levels. I appreciate the “Smart Path” function that adapts to each of their learning needs. This has made homeschooling a little bit easier. I have to switch between resources consistently because they learn best through gamification. They love the games, so I’ve been able to use these as incentives and rewards. The only gripe that I have at the moment is that it does glitch sometimes. My son’s coins didn’t update properly at one point, and the profiles didn’t switch. It would freeze on a particular profile. It’s not a deterrent though because the profile issue happened once. I will continue to use the app because it has helped, and my kids enjoy it.

Great math practice for my kid

I wanted something that covered a wide range of math topics for my kid to get some extra but fun practice. He has set some goals for himself as he progresses through the app. Each correct answer results in earning a coin. He was determined to get to 2000 of those! He recently did that after months of ~45 minutes a week in the app. His next goal is to acquire all of the stars in his grade level and then the next grade after that.I have noticed some syncing issues between devices as mentioned in some other reviews. This probably has to do with the servers or something. It would be nice to be able to see this improved.

This app is one of the best app available on the App Store. It’s is brightly coloured, interactive, and safe to hand your device over to your child to keep them busy while learning. I recommend this app to all parents of young children and look forward to using it in the future for children in my life. It’s hard to find educational app that children want to play, but this is one. For once, I don’t have to worry much about the screen time or suitable games. I bought them the app and they are learning without even realising it. And best of all they can’t get enough of it. I also feel like my child has grabbed ahold of the math concepts more quickly than some of the other kids of his age. The games are very appropriate for kids and keep them occupied. The graphics and sound are better than other I have seen. Job well done!!!

Ok, so I’m only giving this 2 stars because I’m not sure if the problem is with my daughter’s phone or the app it’s self. I got the app for my daughter to brush up on her math skills a subject she has been struggling in since we switched to online learning. We went to start the app. It should a loaded screen and then the page went blank. I tried restarting the app 2 more times and the same thing happened. Now my daughter has my old phone an Apple 6S. The only think I can think of is maybe this app is not compatible with such an old phone. But all the other apps we have gotten her on the App Store work just fine. I think it’s really odd that this one did not. If the makers of this app would like to reach out to me and offer advice on what we can do to fix the problem I would be happy to change my rating.
