## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — The quality of the app is horrible

*2024-09-22*

The app rarely gets the orientation right and the AR video jitters like crazy when playing, which is really bad to kids’ eyes, so I deleted the app after a few tries.

### 1/5 — Why?

*2023-06-05*

When it dose not work that get me aggravated I was so excited to do the secret code and then it didn’t work very disappointed

### 1/5 — Did not work

*2023-02-19*

Does not work at all, tried with an iPhone and ipad

### 1/5 — No audio

*2021-12-26*

Audio doesn’t work - disappointing.

### 1/5 — App is glitchy. Audio has never worked.

*2021-09-20*

App is glitchy. Audio has never worked in any of the books and some of the graphics are unresponsive

### 1/5 — It didn’t work at all!

*2021-08-11, version 1.5.1*

I’m really disappointed because the idea of using the seems really until it doesn’t work which happened to me. So I am quite disappointed but it does seem like a great idea.

### 3/5 — Cool But Doesn’t Always Work

*2022-03-25*

I love this app when it works, but it takes me a long time to actually get it to scan the page.

### 3/5 — Not great execution

*2020-03-06, version 1.3.1*

Only about a third of the AR instances work on an iPhone 11pro on ios13. The idea is interesting but fiddling trying to get it to work really detracts from the bedtime reading experience. The voice acting could also be stronger.

### 3/5 — Worked well but why only the cover?

*2017-07-16, version 1.0.8*

Great idea. Needed to occur of every page.

### 4/5 — Works fine

*2026-03-13*

Worked fine for what it is when I tried it. 🤷

### 5/5 — SO AMAZING!!

*2023-06-12, version 1.5.1*

I read every book and it’s so awesome! Lots of twists and turns, and they never make you bored. It’s thrilling, and really keeps you on the edge of your seat. It’s my favourite book series ever. I love it more than Harry Potter, and that is seriously saying something. The AR Reads app really helps it bring it to life. So I strongly suggest you stop reading and download right now.

### 5/5 — Zoe.w 10

*2022-10-14, version 1.5.1*

I can’t stop reading. There’s so many really good adjectives

### 5/5 — Awesome! Totally awesome!😀😀😀😁😁😁😁😁

*2020-11-15*

The best! Please if you have a dragon brothers book please download

### 5/5 — Awesome

*2019-06-03, version 1.2.1*

I only heard of the app because the author came to the school I tried it out and it’s amazing!

### 5/5 — Feedback

*2019-02-28, version 1.2.1*

Why can’t it work on Samsung tablet?

### 5/5 — The dragon defenders (book one)

*2019-02-28, version 1.2.1*

This book is so interesting I’ve been reading it for about an hour

### 4/5 — More dragon adventures!

*2022-06-16*

Great freebie app to bring the dragon books to life a bit more, my toddler loves it and likes repetition so this is gab for him. Works fine on my iPhone.
