### 3/5 — Where is Curious George?

*2024-12-04, version 2.39*

I don’t see him on the app anymore

### 2/5 — Fun when it works

*2024-07-23, version 2.38*

We've had a subscription for sometime but now the app has stopped working on my daughters iPad. We receive the error "access token denied" and I have tried to contact the company twice but received no reply. I am paying for the subscription but can't use it!

### 4/5 — Nice game but

*2024-07-21*

Hi I really love this game but after like only a few months I have to subscribe again and I tried to subscribe again and it just kicks me out of the whole app immediately and I can’t even subscribe without being kicked out to be honest I really do like this game but the hacks and bugs just make it frustrating please fix this

### 3/5 — Good game …..kinda

*2023-07-23*

It’s a good game but you need to buy most of the games and stuff so if u don’t want to pay u can only play 1 game 0 videos + arts and crafts ect but u can also read 1 book sooooo Yh

### 1/5 — Can’t unsubscribe keeps taking money

*2022-10-23*

Can’t unsubscribe keeps taking money.

### 1/5 — Not worth it.

*2022-04-21*

The kids found it boring and it seems somewhat pathetic. Dont bother downloading it is not worth the price.

### 1/5 — Don’t get

*2022-03-28, version 2.37*

This app doesn’t work at all, you have to enter in your payment info first before you can do anything and after you have done that the app doesn’t load anything. And now I can’t even get my payment info off.

### 3/5 — Hi

*2022-01-23*

Does it have in app purchases if it does then I might delete it because everyone needs to learn so why should we pay for it

### 3/5 — Good when it works

*2022-01-01*

My child is constantly frustrated that some of the videos don’t play.  There is one fireman Sam video he has been trying to watch for days and gets very discouraged it won’t play. We’ve tried it on multiple devices but nothing.  Happens with others too

### 1/5 — DO NOT PURCHASE!

*2021-11-22, version 2.37*

App hasn’t worked in 3 months. We want our money back for the months it hasn’t worked, but we haven’t heard back. Support tried to fix the issue to no avail. There is no way to talk to a person. You have to email and wait for someone to get back with you.

Still waiting on a refund!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

### 1/5 — failure

*2021-08-21, version 2.36.2*

why could i the only reason is that my first name is in feild! 😫

### 1/5 — Don’t waste your money

*2021-08-15*

Payed for a subscription and it worked well for 6months. The last three months I keep getting the “whoops you entered an incorrect email or password.” I’ve contacted the company through their company email several times with no response. There is no other way to contact them and any attempts through emails is fruitless…..

**Developer response:** Hello, We are so sorry to hear that! Please send us an email at  help@curiousworld.com and we will gladly help resolve the issue.

Thank you

*2026-03-03, version 2.39*

POOR

### 1/5 — Cancelled 3yrs ago, still being charged

*2025-07-30*

Getting charged $64 per year after cancellation for 3yrs now, and customer service has been impossible to get ahold of thus far.  Multiple emails & numbers listed but haven’t been able to reach a representative yet.  Figured I’d save another family the hassle if anyone reads these.  My kid liked it for a year then aged out. Now we pay because it won’t let me cancel any of the ways they’ve recommended on their page. It’s absolute insanity

### 1/5 — A worse app experience cannot be had

*2025-02-28, version 2.39*

Swipe to turn the page and also to close the book. Delete. Cancel.

### 1/5 — Subscription needed to say it!

*2024-06-06*

It looks like a very fun game however, you need a subscription monthly or yearly to planDo you have to set up account and names and emails and verifications to play a curious George game?Learn after you already paying to play the gameThey still ask you to make more  purchases, and want more money and advertise it for kids to see andAnd tell them you have the cheap version. If you really want the upgraded version give me some more money here let you play it for a little bit no times up go get some more money., it’s teasing them and a money making scheme. I wish these type of apps would say, and be in their own group subscription needed. That’s different than an app purchases because you’re not forced to pay you can pay if you want to. I’ve gone through apps and download it several apps at one time and delete every one of them immediately because they don’t mention anything about a subscription, they say free, free, free all over it.

### 1/5 — Terrible app support

*2024-04-05, version 2.38*

Purchased a year for $64.95 yet I am locked out and no one will unlock the app. Was great until now.

### 1/5 — Bad

### 1/5 — Doesn’t even work

*2023-05-20*

### 5/5 — WOW!!!!!!!!!!!

### 5/5 — Very Engaging Content

*2021-10-09*

We had ABC mouse for over a year and for my kids it wasn’t that engaging. They mostly spent time on dressing up their avatar, cleaning aquarium or entertaining their hamster. Which they like it. It had a nice educational content but somehow not that interesting for kids. Mostly not for 2 years old.
From day one using Curious World my two years old son absolutely loves it, now almost three years old. He does so much with it: Stories, learning games. He even watches kids doing crafts! He enjoys learning Spanish words. It is absolutely wonderful app. My 5 year old daughter enjoys it too! Definitely worth to try and see how your child would like it.

### 5/5 — Ok I can do that for tomorrow afternoon and I can come over later if

*2021-09-28*
