No sounds. ### 4/5 — Make sure your ringer is on. *2019-10-25* I tried and tried to get the sounds to work, even writing a bad review about how they don’t—until I finally realized that unlike podcasts and other audio, your ringer has to be turned on for them to work. So I changed my review. ### 2/5 — Used to be great *2017-02-19, version 4.1* This app used to be great for my toddler. However with the recent changes it has several bugs, including a white box that pop ups and doesn't let you do anything. And I bought the full version. ### 1/5 — Disappointing *2016-10-14, version 4.1* This is my son's favorite app but when it updated it froze an no longer works. ### 3/5 — App hangs *2016-08-17* This is a wonderful app. But if I close the app & open it again touch screen doesn't work. But today the app completely stopped working. My daughter has special needs, and she was enjoying this app. Please fix. Is it not working 'coz I downloaded in India? ### 1/5 — Sounds don't work on iPhone *2016-07-19, version 4.1* This app must not be maintained. The sounds won't play. ### 1/5 — Won't work *2016-07-06, version 4.1* The app was great for a few days. Now it won't work at all ### 1/5 — FREEZING UP! *2016-06-05, version 4.1* I have paid for app twice, because it keeps freezing up on me and my granddaughter, so I deleted it and started over, and instead of saying it's paid for I paid for it again! ### 2/5 — Wish it worked *2016-05-31, version 4.1* My little one LOVES this app, but unfortunately it just stops working. The only way to get it to work again is to delete and re-download. The big catch here is that you lose your in app purchases. I have actually repurchased this more than once, but I just can't do it again since apparently the issue is not going to be resolved. It is a big disappointment. :( ### 1/5 — Stops working *2016-03-25* Just jams. Have to delete it and reinstall weekly. ### 4/5 — Nice photos ands ounds. *2016-02-12, version 4.1* My toddler is enthralled. A little basic, would like to see more animals added. ### 1/5 — Too many problems *2016-01-19, version 4.1* Not worth the headaches. My son loves it when it works which is rare. It freezes and you can not open any of the animals then I have to constantly keep deleting and reinstalling to make it work but then my purchases are gone. ### 4/5 — Was great but stopped working *2015-12-12* Sounds and pictures are great and interesting to my one year old. Disappointed that the app suddenly quit working completely. Re-downloaded to get it back from the cloud and of course the in-app purchase of unlocking the rest of the cards was gone. Continues to stop working. Hard restarts and exiting out of the app don't help, only deleting and re-installing. ### 3/5 — Needs update *2015-11-22, version 4.1* This app needs an update my daughter loves it, but it freezes and now won't even make the animal noises...help! ### 1/5 — Avoid add-on *2015-11-01, version 4.1* I already bought the extra add-ons over a year ago, and it was a 1-time (lifetime) purchase Now the app locked me out, and wants me to pay again! ### 1/5 — Broken App *2015-10-26, version 4.1* App is nice when it worked. Has been broken/bug for a good portion of a year now ### 3/5 — Great app *2015-10-04, version 4.1* We love this app. But it keeps freezing. I have to delete and redownload it which is frustrating. The animal pictures and sounds are a lot of fun for my toddler. ### 4/5 — Needs updating *2015-08-20, version 4.1* Used to be toddlers favorite app. Well worth the $0.99 to unlock. It needs to be updated, it no longer allows to add sound and pictures to your own flash cards :( ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Error *2020-03-02* Can’t unlock animals ### 1/5 — Sound *2019-04-12* No sound !! ### 1/5 — Worst service experienced *2019-02-05* I had purchased the full version, but after the update everything has disappered .

Will never recommend to purchase! ### 1/5 — No sound *2018-12-21* No sound ### 1/5 — Junk App *2018-07-14* The sound doesn’t work. Agree with the other criticisms. Total garbage. ### 1/5 — No sounds, poor instructions *2017-09-13* Read the instructions, tried again and deleted. ### 1/5 — Poor update *2017-09-09* I had the full version, and when it updated, I lost all of the animals I'd previously bought. What a ripoff! ### 1/5 — Locked items won't open!!! *2017-09-02* Nothing worse than showing a toddler animal sounds and then the next one won't open because it's locked?!!! And the so called three finger tap doesn't work!!! Can't open settings, because of the so called three finger tap!!! Very disappointing and worse for a toddler ### 1/5 — Ripoff *2017-01-23, version 4.1* Paid for full version - app stopped working - a white square appeared and blocked access to app. After rebooting IPad it still didn't work. Deleted app and reinstalled and lost access to full app. Went to website for a fix but could not gain access to the website. Developers like this should be banned from being able list their apps! ### 1/5 — Crashed *2017-01-05* Crashed after 5 days. Had to delete and reinstall. Works but they want another .99 cents to unlock all the animal sounds.

It was such a hit with our 12mo old we decided it was worth the $0.99 to buy the full version. Our daughter loves animals and this keeps her entertained while we're out!

I do have to help her, but I expected that. ### 5/5 — Sounds *2014-08-15* Great app my 2yr old loves it ### 5/5 — Nice app *2014-06-14, version 4.1* Our toddler likes this app, so we bought the additional animal sounds.

What other 2 year old knows hyena! :) ### 5/5 — Great learning app *2013-12-06* This app is amazing for little ones! Learning time is so much fun! ### 5/5 — Great App! *2013-08-16, version 4.1* You can easily add your own pictures, name them and record a sound in your own foreign language! Great for families speaking more than one language at home;) ### 5/5 — Works without problem *2013-07-17* This app has really nice realistic pictures and sounds. My 18 month old son loves it. I like how you can put in favourites or add your own pictures and sounds. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
