Not enough dinosaurs
I would give this a 5 star review but there is one major problem with this game and that is that it doesn’t have all the animals ever on the show and I want all of them
Not a game
I was under the impression it was a game for education, sorting, and more but it only tells you the names of dinosaurs.
In-app purchase not working
We purchased additional dinosaurs in the app. Every time my child closes the app the purchased dinosaurs disappear. Even when I do restore purchase and they show back up, they disappear when I go back to turn off access to the store.
Should be free or $.99
Not worth $2, it's cute and have a Dino for each letter in the alphabet, with a fact from each but that's all it has nothing more.
Freezing up
My son loves this app, but it freezes up constantly and he cries and cries. I ended up deleting the app because he got so frustrated. If they could fix that, I’d get it again.
Sporadically closes and restarts
The app has a glitch where it will just randomly close and restart. Very annoying.
Not very good for reading.
My son loves dinosaurs and it's ok to learn about different dinosaurs. However it's not effective for teaching letters and sounds (which is why I got it). Not a lot to do in the app either
Only crashes
So far cannot get this to open at all. Just crashes. Angry to pay $2 (really?!) for this garbage. Already annoyed about absurd in app purchase costs and initial cost. To have it not load as well adds insult to injury. Demanding a refund.
Poor design and poor value
Though our little one likes the show, there is very little to actually do in this app, and the extra $4.99 cost to access all the dinosaurs will annoy most parents. Some people might consider selling an educational dinosaur app that forces the user to pay extra to access show favorites like triceratops, tyrannosaurus, and stegosaurus as clever marketing; I consider it a rip off.

Great encyclopedia & exploratory app!
This app is a vibrant, fun and great exploratory experience. (If you’re expecting a game, this is not what you’re looking for.) My kid LOVES Dinosaur Train and has fun playing with all of the dinosaurs on their pages, and spelling things on the screen with Buddy. The Ultimate Dinosaur pack was well-worth the money as an in-app purchase.

Great for Grandkids
Still loving this app... My grandson loves feeding those dinosaurs and he is still learning new facts! We love it.
Terrible
What is this? There is nothing to do in this app. Only a random voice giving information about Dinos that is way too detailed for kids. And some letters ... That you can look at... I guess...
Disappointed
My kid loves Dinosaur Train and most of all the A-Z song. So of course I bought this app (and the other two DT apps) however the A-Z song is NOT on the A-Z App!!!! Are you serious? Please do something about this!!! PLEASE ADD THE SONG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
iPad 5 star/iPhone 1 star
Works great on our iPad and my almost 3 year old loves it and really gets a lot out of it (she loves the tv show). However on my iPhone 6 it is a completely different story: the buttons and commands don't work for many functions and the iPhone app does not recognize the extra dinosaur in-app purchase from our iPad.

not iPhone 6 Plus compatible
I noticed there are a number of reviews for older versions saying it won’t run on the kid’s old iPad or old iOS or whatever. We had a similar problem the other direction (with the current version). It works OK on the iPads we have around, but when I had to loan my iPhone 6 Plus in a pinch (using Guided Access to protect my stuff!), we discovered it doesn’t work. The image is about 60% of full screen, and then the buttons don’t seem to work.

Great learning tool for kids!
This app is one of the best I've found. What a perfect app to teach my child letters and dinosaur facts. So much educational information in here! Thanks PBS KIDS!
Best dinosaur app for kids!
My kids love Dinosaur Train and they've had so much fun with this app. So many dinos to learn about. They love feeding them!
Disappointed
My daughter is almost 4 and loves watching Dinosaur Train. She was excited about this app but was fast disappointed that there wasn't any actual game to play. The app is basically an encyclopedia, not at all what we were expecting.
Great app!
My son loves this app. Hate that a lot of the more common dinosaurs you have to buy in a pack (lost a star) AND we've been waiting on the marine pack to release for awhile (lost a star). Hurry up already!
Great app
The reason why this app does not get 5 stars is because we have been waiting for the water animals for a long time. Other than that is amazing!!!!
