Okay READ THIS

So,
You guys need to fix the trial why not teach for free a lot of parents don’t have enough money to provide this!! Please fix it it is extremely bothering a lot of my friends I thought it would be so fun for a free educational app I am really not happy with it my expectations are not high so this is very low I really think you should change it for kids and adults

If this was too harsh or mean I am sorry but it is true and also my child and me will be waiting for a response well only me but still!

A download disaster!

This app won’t let me set up a child’s account on a device with parental controls set and I’ve run into similar issues trying to register through the web. Now out of pocket to the time of $36 per month with no way of logging in as a parent to cancel. Poorly thought out use case where child protections in place. Combination of poor developer planning and excessively restricted Apple regulations. Developers have to grip Apple to get this resolved and present parents with remedial routes of address. Would give zero stars if could.

It is okay but not the best.

This was not what it advertised to be. Yes, it may have all the activity’s it said it would although, you need to pay for most of the activity’s. Therefore, I don’t understand why this is advertised on my little girls favourite game Gacha Life. She was playing this game like how her favourite you tubers do. And a add for this app popped up. My daughter loves unicorns and slime and when she heard unicorns and slime in the add she asked me to download it. First I looked at the add to see is it was child friendly, it did meet more then my expectations therefore I downloaded it for her. But I then noticed my first point. You need to pay money. And I knew money would be involved somewhere but I thought it was like he apps were you have an option to pay but you don’t need to. But o you need to pay to use this app. The only reason I am giving this two stars is because if you were had mor money than my family this would be a good app for your child to use and even yourself. But I will not download this app again.

Even great for my 3 year old

Some of my three year olds favorite things are legos, machines, and science experiments. We watch the videos together and even though he’s not old enough to make the slimes by himself or build the cardboard machines he loves the videos and then he loves me setting up the projects for him to interact with. I love the LEGO, strange science, and invent your own machine courses and I’m excited to check out a few of the others. I’m so happy to have such well done lessons for him and I to both enjoy when we need an activity. Even after one week I’ve seen his inventiveness with his toys multiply.

A little bit disappointing

It is disappointing because it costs 20 pounds per month that the only problem but except that it looks really fun but I couldn’t try it out because it is to much money. I mean why does it cost money for a fun game for kids. I saw this in a advert and thought awwww this look fun but I downloaded it and it said 20 pounds so I didn’t play it so I hope one day it will be free but nothing is free nowadays. (I really wish this was free then i will be on it for ages!)

Disappointing.

Jam is a scam! Firstly, it is clearly stated in the advert that it is free and no in-app purchases are involved. I am a child myself and I am very unsatisfied with the amount of unsatisfactory there is right now. I asked my parents if it was ok to sign up and they said yes and then I signed up and it said there was a free trial but I’m not aloud to purchase free trials. So I asked my parents whether or not there was any chance they could let me off just this once so they agreed. Secondly, after the fortnight you get on Jam the monthly subscription is WAYYYYY too overpriced! And finally, the overall learning experience and education is DEFINITELY NOT from the greatest teachers. I am a child who is very interested in art so I clicked on the catagory and guess what, there is no videos, pictures or instructions it just said draw a person (I was trying to draw a side portrait of someone’s face). I am not trying to be cruel or critical to the company (or trying to get you as a reader not to buy it*)but it is just the experience of a child that came across jam and thought this could actually be a good app but in my opinion I was OBVIOUSLY WRONG! * the reason I said this was because it is simply your decision whether you want this app or not :)

Yours Faithfully,
A very disappointed, unsatisfied child.):

Lie

So I was happy to Learn but Then I Realized you have to pay! But it says this app is free?!?! So, That’s When I Deleted And Reported

Jam is a scam!

In the advert it clearly stated that it was, ”absolutely free!” Well, guess what! It’s not! I am a child myself and asked my parent if I could get it. They said yes, so I got very excited about this. Sadly though, after I made an account, I was offered with a free trial. As I said earlier, I am a child, and my parents don’t allow me to use free trials. This was an utter disappointment. Also, the free trial was only for 14 days! I was going to use this app for a long time-or so I thought. Jam is just a scam. Remember that! Don’t get the app!

I have to pretend to be a kid?!

Yes I'm an adult (barely), but I thought it would be cool to have a look at some of the crafts (i saw an add with some more difficult ones for teenagers) but you can't even get into the add without having to pretend you are a kid. Should have an option to join as an adult (but if there's a chatting option disable chatting between adults and children because that's creepy!) for parents and people who just like craft

Money Required

I don’t like this because I am parent myself and I do not like this because It requires money and when it comes to money, I think it’s a waste so I never pay, and therefore this is a horrible and fake ad and I would not recommend this.

One of those reasons are my daughter was very excited by this app and wanted to learn so many new things about DIY and Art (Because she loves anything to do with her imagination!) and when I found out that this app was a absolute scam, my daughter was very disappointed, therefore it also brings unhappiness.

A second reason is because when my daughter saw this ad, it said it was “Completely Free!” So I was excited for my daughter, turns out you can never trust ad’s.

So parents out there, would not recommend it, even kids or teens seeing this, don’t get it! I would not recommend it, I already warned you like 5 times in this review. I really hope you can change it to free.

Thank you, ( A victim of a Scam )
