## What is Animal Sounds Explorer?

Explore 6 beautiful animal worlds with your toddler — no ads, no distractions, just pure learning fun!

Animal Sounds Explorer turns screen time into quality time. Your 1-4 year old taps animals and objects to discover sounds, animations, and hidden surprises across farm, ocean, arctic, forest, savannah, and dinosaur scenes.

WHY PARENTS LOVE IT:
- Zero ads — completely safe for little hands
- 2 scenes free forever (Farm + Sea Creatures), 4 premium scenes to unlock
- Works in 11 languages — perfect for bilingual families
- Teaches animal sounds, counting, cause & effect, and early ecology concepts
- Designed for parent-child interaction, not solo screen time

WHAT MAKES IT SPECIAL:
Every tap creates a reaction. Touch animals multiple times for different animations. Find hidden interactions your toddler will squeal over. This isn't passive watching — it's active exploration that builds curiosity and observation skills.

LEARNING THROUGH PLAY:
→ Vocal development: Encourage your toddler to imitate animal sounds
→ Memory & recognition: "Can you find the octopus?"
→ Environmental awareness: Talk about where animals live
→ Counting skills: "How many times should we tap the cow?"
→ Language building: Name animals together in your native language

A GAME MADE WITH LOVE:
I created this with my own child when he was a toddler. Many interactions came from his ideas. I promised him kids worldwide would play our game together — which is why it's translated into 10 languages. We're honored to be part of your family's learning journey.

### 5/5 — Título

*2025-05-09*

Reseña

### 3/5 — It’s the best.

*2023-02-21*

I downloaded over 10 other animal sounds and only this one and another fit what we were looking for. 

This app is beautifully designed with a variety of scenes and adorable animals. We love that it handles the quick tough movements/touch that toddlers have while learning to point, and zero adds even before buying it. I would support this developer again and again.

Only wish there were more animal sounds but the fun sounds are engaging and our 2year old is happy playing on the app, she has learned to switch through different scenes all by herself, it really is toddler friendly throughout.

**Developer response:** Thank you so much for your delightful review! I put a lot of thought into this game, with a focus on making it as user-friendly as possible for toddlers. I do plan to add more scenes in the future.  :)

### 1/5 — Sound only works with headphones

*2023-02-12*

Sound only works with headphones

**Developer response:** I'm sorry to hear that you experienced an issue. Your enjoyment of this game is important to me. It’s a very odd issue, as no other user has reported anything similar. I can understand the frustration, as having to put headphones on a toddler would be far from ideal. Question -- are you certain that this was occurring with the Animal Sounds Explorer app only, or were other apps having the same issue? 

Sometimes iPads can get stuck in "headphone mode" due to issues with the headphone port (debris, grime, or damage). If the issue wasn’t specific to this app, please consider updating your rating/review. If your speakers are working with other apps but not this one, try deleting then reinstalling the Animal Sounds Explorer app and seeing if the issue persists. If so, please contact support@wowium.com and let’s see if we can troubleshoot.

### 5/5 — This is adorable!!!

### 5/5 — So cute!

Adorable artwork and fun, age-appropriate gameplay for littles. Mine loves to find the animals!
