Developer refuses to assist or refund. *2016-05-16* I bought this app because an article said it was great for toddlers. But it doesn't work. No music. Freezes 10 seconds in. Emailed the developer three times over 3 weeks asking for assistance or a refund. Still no response. Do NOT waste your money on this or any other app by this developer. ### 5/5 — Extremely entertaining book *2015-07-21* Love this app!!! Can't recommend it enough. Such a sweet story, beautiful graphics, with educational interaction for kids. All three of my children have been captivated by the movie section of this app from 3-4 months old. As they grew older they loved the story section especially tapping and counting the bees as they fly out of the hive to music. It's been a winning app in our family for years. Love your work and would love to see more apps like this one. ### 1/5 — Terrible *2015-03-17* Absolutely awful! Payed for this app.. Zero stars!!! ### 5/5 — Omg- can't believe this is not 5 stars!! *2015-02-25* This is such a good app- I've been waiting for this developer to come up with another one! I started my son on this app when he was 6mos and he STILL loves it at 3! Great idea with word recognition, graphics, counting- it really encompasses a lot and I can't believe it doesn't have more recognition. :( make another please!! ### 5/5 — Great app *2011-05-05* My 18 month old son loves it so much. Every time he see's the iPhone, he's got to play with the Bee Book. ### 5/5 — We love the movie *2011-05-05* I originally got this app for my daughter, now 5, about 2 yrs ago she played with it a bit. However, my 9 month son REALLY enjoys it. We play the movie for him when he's fussy and we cannot get him quiet... immediately he calms down and even gets upset when we try to turn it off when it is over. An auto-replay button would be nice ;) ### 4/5 — Bee *2010-11-09* My IPod is named " bee" after this app. My 2 year old loves it and has for a year now. The movie was entertaining for her when she was too young to follow the words and utilize the interactive reading features. Now she knows how to navigate through the entire book and will say some of the words along with the story. I would love to see more apps. like this but a little longer. ### 5/5 — My son loves it!!!! *2010-10-20* I purchased this app for my 5 mth old son. He is absolutely fascinated. I thought there would be a bit more to it but for the price, it's excellent. Thanks. :-) My son is 11 mths old now & he still loves watching it!! It has been the best $0.99 I have spent so far for him. It calms him right down when he's getting difficult or irate. Unless you're really cheap, I don't know why you wouldn't buy this app. Thank you!!!! I hope another app similar to this is made soon. Now, at 19 months, he still enjoys it!! The movie portion is still his favorite but now he's starting to show interest in the book portion where he can learn the words & count. $.99 folks!!! Simple and fun for your kids!! Worth every penny!!!! So now my son is 2 years old and he is more interested in the audio book portion and is learning the words on this app. Folks, you need to get this app as it will truly entertain and help the kids learn. A steal at $.99!!!! ### 5/5 — Brilliant Child Pleaser *2010-10-05* My daughter loves this app! Shes only 6 months old but the video keeps her entertained and the book amuses her no end. Great app :o) ### 5/5 — It *2010-08-24* My 2-year-old son is learning how to read with this app and sometimes it cracks him up. He loves reading along and touching each work. He even enjoys the short movie. Please create MORE touch books like this with longer stories. We'll be waiting... ## Frequently asked questions about Bumblebee Touchbook ### What is Bumblebee Touchbook?
