I have uninstalled and reinstalled the app with no fix. There is also no support available for help or questions. ### 1/5 — Disappointed *2019-06-05, version 1.1* No sound, please fix. ### 1/5 — Joke - don't purchase or other Osborne apps *2018-11-24, version 1.1* As per other comments sound just stopped working and has never been fixed. ### 2/5 — Great app needs updating *2018-08-20, version 1.1* My toddler loved this app but it needs updating to work with the new iOS. Sound is no longer working. Please fix it, it was a great app! ### 1/5 — Unhappy *2017-01-23, version 1.0* Won't open. ### 1/5 — Terrible, don't waste your money! *2017-01-17, version 1.0* This app does not even work. I have downloaded it multiple times and it will not open. I love Usbourne books, Usbourne should not have attached their name to this app as it is crap. I want a refund! ### 1/5 — Doesn't run on iOS 10 *2016-09-25, version 1.0* This app no longer opens since upgrading to iOS 10. Please fix! Old review: We bought this as our first app for our 11 month old daughter on the strength of some of the Usborne books. The app did not disappoint! It's as great as expected for tiny children with lots to press on and explore and nothing to accidentally mess things up for them. ### 5/5 — Superb *2015-06-12, version 1.0* As with every Usborne book I've purchased this app is superb and doesn't disappoint. Far superior to other baby apps we've tried. It is designed for multi-finger, excitable touching and my daughter adores the variety of actions, beautiful scenes and thoughtful animations. Responds to quick touch, touch and drag, and lingering touch in different ways. Kudos to the developers. ## Frequently asked questions about Baby's Very First Play App ### What is Baby's Very First Play App - Animals?
