They are way too busy for some little ones. ### 2/5 — Phone access!! *2017-02-07* MUST discover a way to "lock" it to where the baby cannot access the phone while using it. Much like you access the "info," before this app. is worth while. ### 2/5 — Soneppo review *2015-07-24* I work with visually impaired children and purchased this app. The sound no longer works. This app is really no good without the sound. Very disappointed! ### 4/5 — Lol *2013-06-21, version 2.0.2* This app scares the crap outta my 8 month old not sure why it is a very child friendly app lol goofy kids ### 5/5 — Best app to entertain baby *2012-11-25, version 1.1.14* My baby is 5 months old and loves this app, it helps when I'm busy and need to quiet her down, highly recommend trying the free version,then you can't resist buying it for your little one!!! ### 4/5 — Vibrate on iPad? *2012-11-21, version 1.1.14* I love this app and bought it for my daughter who has special needs! I got the free version on my iPhone which vibrated when you touched the sun which my daughter would live, I then bought the full version to put on her iPad only to Find that the iPad doesn't vibrate! Maybe in have a setting wrong and this can be resolved for me? :-) ### 5/5 — Fantastic Little!!!!! *2012-10-30, version 1.1.14* A very simple fun little app for my 8 month old baby daughter. ### 4/5 — Good app *2012-08-01, version 1.1.11* My son, 6 months old, loves this app but get frustrated easily with all the animals & noises that come to the screen when we touches it. ### 2/5 — No sound *2012-07-29, version 1.1.11* My niece loves looking at this, but I'm disappointed that it has no sound. My sister has the same version and hers works fine. I have checked my volume settings and they're on high :/ ### 5/5 — Baby rattel *2012-07-05, version 1.1.11* My grand daughter loves this app. She's 9 months and likes to shake it and dance to the music. I was wounding if you could make it have different music when shook. Thanks 5 star. ### 4/5 — Rattle I pad *2012-05-20, version 1.1.11* My sons love this app have downloaded it on to my I pad, which is great as the pictures that much bigger but on the I pad there is no sound. Is it possible to send an update that will allow sound please, my sons are 1yr and 2yrs old. ### 5/5 — My niece loves it! *2012-05-15, version 1.1.11* Great app! Problem is she's starting to press the home button on my phone and closes the app. Need a baby proof case. Something that can slip on easy and cover the home button. ### 5/5 — The best baby app! *2012-05-08, version 1.1.10* My daughter loves this rattle. She plays with it constantly & it keeps her attention. ### 4/5 — Game upgrade *2012-04-22, version 1.1.10* Awesome game but u need to be able to disable the round iPhone button my little girl pushes it and turns the game off everytime ### 5/5 — Excellent *2012-04-17, version 1.1.10* I bought this for my three month old and he loves it! We have been playing with it for a month now and it's amazing how he has learned what to do. He follows the sun with his eyes and loves tapping the screen and hearing the sounds. ### 5/5 — 18 month old LOVES it since 6 months old! *2012-04-14, version 1.1.10* My 18 month old has played with this app since he was about 6 months old on a friend's iPhone. I ended up getting the iPhone just for this app so that he could play it! Lol. It keeps him so entertained and gives me time to get things done! :) ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Not worth it *2012-09-28, version 1.1.13* Would be a good app except there appears to be not lockable feature. Every time my son puts more than one hand on it is goes back to the main screen of my iPad ### 1/5 — Baby rattle *2012-09-12, version 1.1.13* The rattle is colorful but unfortunately it does not rattle with sound at all. Rattle is supposed to make make rattle sound as per definition of the rattle. Overall bit disappointing and waste of money. ### 1/5 — No sound? *2012-07-28, version 1.1.11* Not so happy with this app, there is no sound at all?! ### 1/5 — Board *2012-05-07, version 1.1.10* My 13 month old daughter got board of this within days, needs more music and changeable backgrounds not just an info that does nothing but advertise. Have seen better apps for free ;( ### 1/5 — Want my money back! *2012-02-12, version 1.1.9* Scared my 6 month old ..she doesn't cry that hard that often..and gave me a headache..waste of money...to bad we can't preview apps before downloading.Wish I could give this one a minus no star ! ### 1/5 — Weak sauce *2011-11-09, version 1.1.8* Huge noisy mess. Then the sound quit working. Waste of time. ### 1/5 — Not the best *2011-11-08, version 1.1.8* Baby was bored in 2 minutes ### 1/5 — Won't open *2011-07-27, version 1.1.6* Worked great until the update. Now won't even open. ### 1/5 — Cacophonous mess *2011-05-29, version 1.1.5* Well that was a waste of $2. If you want to give your kid ADHD while at the same time giving yourself a migraine this is the app for you. ### 1/5 — Crash city *2011-04-14, version 1.1.3* New up date makes it crash on start up! fix this! ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Doesn’t work with IOS 11.0.2 *2017-10-05* ***UPDATE*** It works!!! And all of our kids love it!!! Thank you! We’ve been using this for years! No longer works with the most recent update 😭 **Developer response:** We've just released an update which supports iOS 11. Install the update and your app will work again. As a bonus the update includes new beautiful backgrounds! ### 5/5 — Still great in third baby! *2016-04-13* I bought this ap when my first baby was about 4 months old (had the free one first) and used it with her until she was about a year whenever she got really upset in the car. This ap still works today with my third child!! Seriously the best dollar I ever spent. Buy it. ### 5/5 — 6 month old loves it *2016-04-09, version 2.0.3* So distracting. So simple. Nice one ### 5/5 — Perfect app for babies! *2015-03-20* From all of my friends' babies to my own son.... Every baby loves this app! They are memorized! ### 5/5 — Huh? *2014-04-28* Now what drug are you taking in this app? ### 5/5 — The best *2013-11-03* Well, it's really the only baby app that works consistently for our daughter (from 6 to now 10 months). She absolutely loved it from the first moment. It's very easy to use for her. The trial version (if it still exists) gives a good idea. Btw: we usually turn down volume and brightness. ### 5/5 — Makes her laugh! *2013-09-07* When I take my 8 month old from her Mommy the first thing she does it take the TV remote. I end up watching some random channel with the volume either muted or blasted! I collect several toys to take her focus away from it but she loves that remote. Of course the only other thing she will play with is my expensive iPhone. I have other rattle apps but this one makes her get excited and giggle. Needless to say I can watch TV again. Love this app! ### 5/5 — Needs one thing... *2013-02-09, version 2.0.0* My baby can swipe to another screen and she does it constantly. Can this be fixed? ### 5/5 — The best! *2013-01-05* This app is extremely high quality. My baby loves it. The graphics are top-notch and the animation perfectly smooth. My baby is 21 months and is just starting to outgrow this. He still places with it, but has learned to hit the home button and open other apps. I recommend this for any parents as a way to introduce a baby to interacting with a phone and tablet. Love it. I'll always keep it on my devices just as a memento to remember when he was just a baby, and in case I am around other babies needing something to occupy them for a while. ### 5/5 — Best app *2012-12-22, version 1.1.14* My 3 month old will only stop crying in the car to this rattle app nothing else not even me, mom. It's a must. The Xmas one is cute too. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
