Disappointing
My son loves reading eggs and I was pleased to see that they had created an app that he could play on the iPad. I knew it was different then the actual reading eggs but expected the same standard. The app is incredibly repetitive and the graphics of the eggs are blurred and hard to read for an adult, never mind a 5 year old when the speed in increased. There is no proper timing for the eggs and the bad eggs cover the good eggs and causes your already frustrated child to loose a life and the game when it is not their fault. Even as an adult I miss some of the good eggs do to this issue. The whole app is disappointing and unfortunately the original reading eggs name pulls parents in to buy it. A very disappointed parent and child.Show lessLJCDVS
Eye strain
Great game for kids to drill in quick word recognition - but please improve the smoothness of animations. 60 hz please, just like fruit ninja. Strains the eyes!hibreadious
Won't download!
My son loved the lite free version of this app so I spent $2.99 and purchased the full app. It wont download! I've tried several times and I have plenty of storage. An error message keeps appearing saying it can't load at this time!Blythe D.
Works for the littlies
Admit I was a bit skeptical at first but this app clearly presses the buttons for Mr Nearly Four. I was surprised how quickly he cottoned on to how it works and started recognizing letter patterns. A reminder of how important repetition is for kids, and why they love it. Apparently Mr Nearly Four's favorite bit is 'when you get to spell the word at the end.' The progressive solution of the jigsaw puzzle is obviously engaging as well. (We do have to 'dissuade' Mr Elder Brother from jumping in 'just to help him' ...)Show lessK Stephens
Levels confusing and child can progress to hard words without doing easier words first.
I love reading eggs but was a bit disapointed with the app. The levels in the beginning are unlocked and it is not clear which game contains what level of words. It keeps the kids attention but I don't think they are learning anything as they jump from one word to another without getting the three eggs and revealing a puzzle piece. It would be good if parents could go into settings and select words for the kids that they want them to learn or they had to finish one word before changing to the next. It would also be good if there was a parent screen where you could see what words the kids had done. It is also unclear to the kids that you have to get three eggs to get a puzzle piece. Love the game though, a bit like squash ant but with words, I would much rather the kids were doing this than mindless rubbish.
PS I just downloaded the free eggy 100 to compare and it is much better as the levels are locked! I should have just done that one first!Show lessLisaJane75

Fantastic!
Keeps my child entertained and learning at the same time. So glad to see Reading Eggs has an app out now!Henny80
Eggcellent!
App works well on our ipad once enlarged and games possibly easier to play as a result. Would be great to have the full reading eggs site as an app . My 4 year old has loved playing with it today and loves trying to learn the new words. Thank you!!Seasalt2012
