This app is the worst it should be one star no fun games kid broke the phone

multi user doesn’t work

I paid for multi user, but can’t return to the game once a user is added. Really frustrating!

Use after stroke

Very helpful in relearning fine motor skills after a stroke.

Not Worth The Money

Write It is useful. Pinch It is just a game, while the biggest disappointment is Tap It which is totally useless for someone with adult sized fingers.

Only 1 out of the 3 games functions in a usable way

The crab pinch is the only game that works. The numbers game keeps repeating that we start at the arrow dot (there isn’t one?) and the other game that starts with fingers - I don’t even know what he’s supposed to do for that. He puts his fingers on the screen and then nothing else happens. It clearly isn’t functioning the way it’s intended.
