### 1/5 — Does not work

*2023-07-02*

Avoid this app. It doesn’t work at all

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work!

*2023-03-29*

This app simply does not work. I checked that I have the right type phone and everything. Totally wasted my money.

### 4/5 — One reason it's not 5 stars!

*2016-02-05*

This app is very good for getting toddlers to learn about emotions. I love that  there are stages and it grasps different ways to ask questions. The reasons why I didn't give it 5 stars is because sometimes the pictures can be confusing even for an adult to distinguish (sad from mad and scared from surprised based on some of the pictures). Also some scenarios can possibly have more than one correct choice (ie: "...getting all answers right on a test" could be surprised and/or happy). I might also suggest trying to use more gender specific names if the scenario calls a person "she". While a lot of contemporary names are now unisex,  for toddlers I would leave the Parkers and Pats out and stick with more Angelas and Michelles. Other than that it's really good.

### 5/5 — I love it

*2015-02-14*

This a great app!

### 3/5 — Real-like

*2015-01-27*

I like that the pictures are real. The draw back is that it lack sounds and I have to read them for my son.

### 5/5 — Great app

*2014-09-08*

I love using this app with my speech and language clients. They real faces help more than other cartoon-type faces, I have seen and used. I love the clean and easy to use format.

### 4/5 — worthwhile

*2014-01-10*

As a learning resource teacher, I like the multiple options this app has for assessing a child's knowledge.  The score at the end is also a nice feature.  Having photographs of real people is a definite plus!  My main criticism is about the exaggerated expressions of the people.  As a previous reviewer (Gigi) mentioned, they are too theatrical.  I would prefer more natural looking expressions.  In the real world, no one will look like Macaulay Culkin, from Home Alone movie, when they are scared, so why would I want to teach this.

### 5/5 — Great multi level learning

*2013-05-15*

Teaching children how to not only recognize an emotion on ones face, but to also recognize what someone might be feeling in a situation (empathy) are great skills to teach all children. I found this app to not only do just that, but the photos of real kids and adults along with real life situations for them to depict was someone might be feeling is a major plus for this app. 

Having an app that starts with the most basic of skills and then continues on a hiearchy is another plus for this app. Very customizable. Worth the purchase.

### 1/5 — Waste of money

*2013-03-10*

This app is very simple and very limited functionality. Not worth spending.

### 3/5 — Pretty good, needs work

*2012-10-23*

I like the varying levels, but I hate kid "games" that don't show you the correct answer when you guess wrong (or let you guess again, even if it's technically marked as incorrect). **This is how all their apps work.** Also, surprise and scared seem to look a lot alike, though they never appeared on the same screen (yet?) so I guess that's good. Overall a neat app but it's not perfect.
