Does not work
Avoid this app. It doesn’t work at all
Doesn’t work!
This app simply does not work. I checked that I have the right type phone and everything. Totally wasted my money.
One reason it's not 5 stars!
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.

I love it
This a great app!
Real-like
I like that the pictures are real. The draw back is that it lack sounds and I have to read them for my son.
Great app
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.
worthwhile
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.

Great multi level learning
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.

Waste of money
This app is very simple and very limited functionality. Not worth spending.
Pretty good, needs work
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.

Great for kids on the autism spectrum
Simple, clean and real pictures. Positive reinforcement and summary page are helpful.
Parent
As a parent I really value this app for the opportunity it offers me to interact with my child at home.
Great app
This is a great app! Easy to use, love the real images and the audio feedback is great for the kids. This will be a great tool to use.
Fantastic App to teach emotions
As an SLP, I love that it has a variety of levels. It is hard to find an app that includes a variety of scenarios and real life pictures. It also makes it very easy to take data and measure progress.

Very nice. I like the varied levels. However,some pictures are overly theatrical and do not look realistic.
