High quality screen time!
I love Vooks so much, it’s the only thing my toddler is allowed to watch and I am constantly impressed by how the stories help expand his vocabulary and enrich his understanding of the world. We have several stories on our favorites list that he watches repeatedly, just like we read many of the same books over and over. It’s not addicting, so while he often asks for “one more Vooks book,” it’s easy to get him to move on to another activity. It has also really helped with transitions between play time and “wind down” time. I’m just starting to explore some of the books for older kids, and I can see that it’ll be nice to have as he grows. Criticisms: -I wish the Apple TV version of the app didn’t auto-play books that aren’t on my favorites list. -I wish filtering and the search function were more refined (by age, subject, etc.). It takes some extra effort/watching on my part to find books that my toddler will be interested in and that are age appropriate. Otherwise, it’s great!!

Love, love LOVE
Best App ever, we use it every night at bedtime and any time the kids need a break or time to wind down. So many stories and they always add new ones. Highly recommend.
Books Come to Life!
My daughter loves Vooks! She can watch book after book unfold and not lose interest. I love that each word is highlighted as it’s read. This feature helps my daughter to recognize more words. As a parent, I especially appreciate the fun educational stories. Vooks allows my daughter to feel like she’s getting a treat with some screen time, all while I’m also happy because it’s helping her reading skills. Vooks is engaging and entertaining while not being overstimulating. I recommend Vooks to encourage a love of reading and books for little ones!

Our Kids Love Vooks
Our kids have been using Vooks for the past three years and love it. It has exposed them to lots of great new content in subjects like science and history. My wife and I wish we had Vooks for our kids even earlier.
Best app for the kids
We found this app a couple years ago and it has been our daughters go to. She enjoys all the new books that come out and we enjoy the calm as she enjoys her Vooks. It has been one of the best apps we have found for her and our son has started using it a 1-1/2 years old.
Best reading app for kids
Great for inspiring kids and toddlers to enjoy books and encourage the habit of reading. My kids have definitely enjoys Vooks all the time, every day. It have definitely help tremendously to open up their vocabulary and learn new words. I found this app great because it brings ordinary books alive with its amazing illustration (and voiceover) and its actually boost kids’ imagination skill. The best thing about this app is that you are able to download the books and play it when offline- great for keeping my kids entertained on car rides, road trips and on plane. Another plus is the auto-play of books keep on playing one after another, which keeps my kids excited for the next book coming. Definitely is one of the top apps for kids of all time.

Best educational app ever
I love this app. It bring stories to life for kids that might find reading boring. My children love to read books on this app. I believe every parent or teacher should invest in such app if they want to encourage their children to read especially in this time of age where children are mainly focused on electronics and video games. I give it a five star because it true deserves it. Great job.

Things that are not working
This a really great app!!! Is beautifully made and so eye catching for my son.
But filter is not working even though im paying for the subscription. Is very disappointing. Not liking that at all. PLEASE do something about that. I opened and closed the app and also turned it off and on, that didn’t fix the problem. It would be Really Even more Amazing if we, as parents, could delete a book or, again, have the filters working. I dont want to delete it. Is really a great book reading app.

Great but recent issues
Wonderful product. I started using it for school, and soon my kids were watching Vooks and loving it. Recently though, the app has been having issues to the point where I can’t even use it. I get emails from Vooks and if I use a link in the emails I receive everything is fine (running it through the webpage, not the app) but every time I open the app, I can’t use it. It says that my subscription has expired which is definitely not the case. I’ve tried to delete and reinstall the app, but I still get the same issue. It just tells me to update my information, but when I do it says I don’t have a subscription. I’m hoping it’s just a small hiccup that passes, but it is a little annoying.

Keep logging out
The kids love the app, reading book is fun and animated. However the app is keep logging it out time to time, every time I signed in, it requested to confirm the payment again. (Which it has been paid for). It doesn’t bring us to the home page after login, It can be annoying.
