Awesome app but makes accessibility features act funny

I stand by what I have said in the past. This is an awesome app. The problem I’m having now is since I use it to work on skills because I came from an institutional environment. I went to try and work on it on my iPad and when I try to login through Apple, it’s saying server error try again. It does not do this on my iPhone 11. Please fix. Issue was only on the iPad.

Sad to say that this app is making a ton of money with over “200,000” subscriptions yet they can’t refund me the yearly subscription automatically selected when you download the game, something you might not even notice if you’re not paying attention, so BEWARE. I told them that my 11 year old downloaded the game for my 2 year old with out my consent. After just a few days that she downloaded this app I noticed a $97 charge on my account with out my knowledge I desperately tried pleading with apple multiple times, and they said the app company rejected my request, even wrote the app company and after more than a week never heard anything. Sigh, I am really having a hard time financially at the moment and they refuse to refund me cuz they’re a greedy company.. had I downloaded this game my self I would have chosen a cheaper option not a yearly… who has a non refundable policy on a virtual game, that’s just money hungry.

Hi, thanks for reaching out to us. Unfortunately payment and refunds are managed directly by Apple and the decision is entirely up to them, there is nothing we can do about it. In addition we do not have subscription at $97 so I'm not sure if the charge is from Smart Tales or another app. Again, really sorry about it, I wish there was more we could do.

I got it and paid the year subscription because that was cheaper over long run and because reviews so good raving reviews. Terribly dissapointed. Not even getting a response from the company. I got it for my 9 year old son who is just a little behind in school. I purchased it so I wouldn’t forget which one it was and then finally got around to testing it 2-3 weeks later. I tried it for about 15 minutes and then got to a new section and a female character without proper clothing showed up. I understand going to the beach or pool, which my son has never been to a beach, but I refuse to expose my son to improper attire with an app on my phone, that’s ridiculous!!Well, needless to say, we won’t be using the app. Waste of money and the company won’t respond. Unable to get a refund through Apple. Really disappointed.

Hello here we are. Not sure how you tried to reach out to us, or on which day maybe it was on a Sunday? We're sorry to hear that a female character with a slightly short t-shirt and yes, her belly button visibile might upset you so much. Appreciate it is not for everyone. Feel free to reach out to us on support@smart-tales.freshdesk.com for further support. Thank you!

Update: The app refers you apple for your refund. Apple WILL NOT issue a refund! I’m now out $99. Looks like a BBB report being filed. They have no problem taken you money but can’t give it back.I have tried multiple ways to reach out to the creators of this app and through the smart tales website. None of the emails listed are working emails. There’s no contact information and no way to get help. I had a child install this app and I didn’t know. I am now trying to be charged $99 for this app. I have canceled the subscription and deleted the app and it’s still trying to charge me $99. Someone help me and get this charged removed! I can’t afford it and WILL NOT pay it.Edited: was charged for this app and CAN NOT get a refund!
