Kids love it
Our kids love watching these stories during their quiet time.Loz759
Not what I expected
Didn’t care for this app at all. I thought it would be like a simple virtual read along only. Instead it’s more like allowing my child to watch TV, just with subtitiles on.
First, there is music in the audio that you cannot lower or mute. It is way too distracting. Every single of their books had music in it that I could not turn off.
Secondly, too many movements in the illustrations, unlike a still picture book. It distracts the child away from focusing on the words on the page.
I wish this app provided more of a non over-stimulating experience. Or at least gave the option for a “low stimulation” setting or something.
It felt the same as any other passive zombie-like screen time to me, not something calming or educational as I thought. Therefore I deleted the app and didn’t allow my children to use it.Show less1Deanna

This is amazing!
I have three boys (7, 6 & 2) and this subscription is an absolute delight in these times! We all LOVE this app and when my free subscription runs out I will definitely purchase as it’s completely worth every cent. Thank you for your generosity Vooks, it is absolutely appreciated 😁Lissa0428
Wonderful for Homeschoolers
My elementary aged kids love this app. I love it also but what else is wonderful is there are activities that go with the animated story books (on their website) so it’s more than just enjoying a good story. There is a large quantity of books with the subscription compared to other apps and services. The quality of the books and animation is stellar. The organization of the books by age, topic and etc make it easy for you to supplement with the theme you are teaching. App runs smoothly and no bugs I have experienced yet. I feel confident in the safety and quality of the materials. You could let your child use this app on their own without worry. I’m especially looking forward to delving into some of the biographies next. 5 well earned stars for Vooks app.Show lessFrowny Car

Wow! You make us blush! Thank you so much for entrusting us to offer a safe, educational and entertaining platform for your kids! We hope you are enjoying Vooks to this day!Good
My son really enjoys these video books! It would be better if the app allowed one book to start automatically after one finished. I went into settings and turned on this feature but it still doesn’t work. Also I see Christmas and Easter books but I can’t any Hanukkah or Passover books. It would be nice if this site would represent other religions and holidays that people practice.Show lessAllikit
Reminds me of when I was a kid...
I used to go to the library and watch stories on cassettes and microfilm. Also had little records that I loved that came with books. Vooks reminds me of that time. I hope these will be available in a variety of languages, especially Spanish. I also hope to hear a wide variation of voices. I loved hearing the regional dialect of Farmer John....and the reading by John Lithgow is why I signed up. Thank you so much for this inspiring work! As an ESL tutor/teacher who loves stories, language, and art —-I am grateful for the inspiration.Show lessYomogiBlue

This review warms my heart so much! Those nostalgic ways in which we have enjoyed reading in the past our so special, and we are so grateful to be compared to such treasured storytelling methods! We hope to provide a wide variety of stories in other languages just as soon as possible. Thank you so much for all the love!
