  • don't show levels

    I would love to use these books with my older students who are struggling to read. However the big, bold level number on the front cover is very discouraging for them. I will not have a 12 year old read a book that states "level 1" on it. it is very disheartening for the student. Please remove the level of reading from the front cover! I would recommend this app to many if that one feature was removed.
  • Great App.

    Thanks to booksy developers. My son likes to read books on the app and I can read and hear my son's voice and reading progress through mail.
    I bought all level 1 books and waiting for the new book. I hope booksy publish new book soon.
  • Amazing app!!!!!!

    I love this for my son it gives him the encouragement he needs to be a successful reader, the recording is great, the options of books is fantastic!!!! I absolutely love this for my first grader. Must buy if you have a small child.
  • Awesome app

    Great program! My daughter loves the books & I love the educational aspect. We had an issue downloading books and contacted customer support. I promptly received an email back with tips to fix the problem (I didn't have my iPad up to date) and the problem was resolved. I am so happy with how respectful and helpful they were. Can't wait for more books!!!
  • Excellent!

    This app is leading the pack on leveled readers. Statistics for parents/teachers, plus recordings emailed in the background are valuable tools. My kids love the nature based books. (Update seems to have fixed download problems.)
  • Great app! Downloads work for me

    This is a great app. My 5 year old really gets into reading. He loves the science books. He likes that he can read on his own.
    We had download problems earlier. These were solved by the new update. We also needed to update our iPad to the latest iOS 5.1 So far so good.
  • SCAM!!! Run run run!!

    I bought the books and they never downloaded but tipitap sure as hell downloaded my money!! I've tried on numerous occasions to contact them regarding this and all they've said is to retry, thay they're sorry for the trouble it's giving me. They aren't sorry for taking my money though. DO NOT buy the app OR the books!! The only reason I gave it 1 star was because the rating system made me put something, otherwise it'd be 0 stars.
  • Do not buy

    Books purchased in the bookstore do not load. Contacted site and was told to follow steps to reload books but, after several tries, it still does not work. This app is really just the three books in the trial version and the other books in the bookstore are like ads for books that do not really exist. DO NOT BUY THIS APP
  • App broker as of 2 weekend

    It's been 2 weeks that this app keeps crashing on me on the iPad. I even updated the iPad to 5.1 to day hoping that would fix the issue but unfortunately nothing. If this does not get fixed soon I'll ask to have my money back, I bought 5 books from the internal store I cannot access.
  • Amazing app

    My 5 year old daughter loves this app. She grabs the iPad and goes off to read on her own. Great books. We had a download error with a book that showed up empty and the developer walked us through restoring it. Very simple.
