### 1/5 — Bad purchase

*2025-03-24*

App worked completely fine for the first couple of month, after 4 month the app completely stop working and I paid for it. Do not recommend.

### 1/5 — Only emotion flash cards.

*2023-11-18*

I thought it would be a bunch of flash cards. It’s just a bunch of emotions. Most words I never even use.

### 1/5 — This is junk

*2022-07-03*

Refund, misleading five year olds can’t understand these

### 3/5 — I only see English, French, and German in “change language” options

*2021-09-17*

Where are all other languages?

### 1/5 — Not What I Expected

*2021-09-13*

It’s just random pictures (not very diverse ones) and audio of descriptive emotion words...that can be interpreted or read differently than described. Unfortunately not helpful in trying to help a child on the spectrum understand reading/ understanding emotions as recommended. How can I get a refund?

### 1/5 — Not working

*2020-11-11*

Cannot open. Crashes.

### 3/5 — It's ok

*2019-03-24*

Not every function works but it's okay.

### 5/5 — Wonderful app

*2017-04-04*

Great for helping those that have difficulty reading facial expressions!!! Love!!

### 5/5 — Thank you! Thank you!

*2017-04-03*

This is a wonderful ap to help teach those who have difficulty identifying human emotion.

### 5/5 — Emotions

*2017-04-02*

Love this app! All the kids I work with gain so much from it.
