Ratings and Reviews
So far not impressed
Unfortunately the app has several issues. One is the disjointed login process where App Store purchases are not recognised via the website - although this might just be an issue while setting up? IDK. However, I was immediately worried when the login section capitalised the first letter of my email address -while this has no affect on the login process it’s a sure sign that the app developers are not very experienced. The other issue is the inability to set the age/experience level - you have to slowly work your way up - which leaves kids feeling board and unchallenged. My son has also gotten himself stuck in the app with no way out - requiring a full app reset.
Basically the app offers little incentive (aka its not fun), its overly repetitive (repetition is great if the incentives change) & its over priced at $11.95 a month. I don’t understand why so many app developers think they can charge more than a streaming service and offer so little in return. Maybe my feelings will change - in which case I will update my review.
I would love to see an educational app that offered proper incentives to children - say a 30/70 or 50/50 mix of games and education. Your child does well and then gets to play a game that’s actually fun…. Repeat. With this sort of setup you might not have to force your kids to play!
