Downloaded Dots for my 9 month year old daughter.She had won an iPad in a free raffle at the community night out. Was looking for things she might be able to play.She seems to understand the point of the game and will reach for and pop the dots herself.For as long as a 9 month old pay attention to anything she’ll play the game. So let’s say a solid 30 seconds before she starts chewing on or will toss her iPad to the side and find something new to do.The haptic response when she plays it on my phone might keep her focused a little longer but nothing the developer can do about that I don’t think. Come on Apple vibrating iPads please !
Need help

HiI work for early intervention and I have a kiddo who is severely disabled. She loves popping the bubbles on this app on my iPhone to get the vibration feedback and it helps with her fine motor control so I purchased a gift card and downloaded it to an iPad we had purchased for the family. For some reason the iPad version isn't vibrating when she pops the bubbles. She's not interested without the vibration. I've tried searching for a contact at Ellie's Games but find no support. Can you please assist me or let me know how I can return and be refunded to a gift card so I can purchase something else better suited for her? Thank you.
Developer Response
Hi Lnr103, iPads do not contain the hardware to make the device vibrate. That's why dot popping isn't vibrating on your device. Apple would be happy to refund your purchase if your not satisfied. Feel free to contact them, or search google on how to refund a purchase.Cheers, Erik
Great infant/toddler app

I’ve used this app once my little girl started the pincer grab. She was nicely stimulated by the colorful dots moving around and didn’t really try to tap at first because her touch was too light and not the pad of her finger. Now, at 16 months she uses her finger pad to touch the dots and her touch is strong enough to be detected. Her fun quirk is that she’ll grab my finger and guide it to touch the dots. It’s a fun game for both of us to play together.
My #1 Baby App

Little Hannah is 8 months, and extremely grabby right now. I have a good case, so I let her have the phone. But, before I do, I open up Color Dots and enable Guided Access mode.She has an absolute blast with this app. She smiles and laughs as she pops the dots by slapping the screen with her fingers and hands. The pop noise and vibration response makes this a perfect little game for an infant, and a must-have in any new parent’s arsenal.
Four new games this time.
Alphabet Dots: tap the letters in order, A to Z.
Counting Dots: one dot, two dots, and up from there.
Emoji Party: touch anywhere, faces everywhere.
Paint Party: color that follows a fingertip.
Still no ads, still nothing to read, still safe to hand over.
