### 1/5 — Waste of money

*2025-09-15, version 6.0*

I paid $65 to have the full unlocked version and it’s completely a scam. The app has many glitches and frustrates my toddler excessively. It’s like everything is off centered and doesn’t match up with the screen. It constantly is making errors and glitches. Wish i never payed for it I want my full money back. I have tried deleting the app and redownloading it and it still doesn’t fix the many glitches. This app is a scam.

Buenos días.

### 1/5 — Subscription product and I can't see how to cancel.

*2021-03-23, version 5.0*

I'm extremely disappointed in this product. Last month I looked and I have a charge for $4.99 on my credit card from this company for "updated content". I went to see if I could cancel it, but I don't see anywhere where I can be canceled. When I looked more closely at several of the reviews for this product, I saw many grammatical errors which indicate to me that maybe these weren't authentic reviews. Now I'm sitting here trying to figure out how to cancel this thing so I don't get more charges On my account. I would avoid this product like the plague because there are many more that you can buy for the same price without having to get dinged monthly.

### 2/5 — No Sound

*2019-12-28, version 5.0*

Looks like a great app from what I can.  However I can't hear a thing.  Any ideas?

### 5/5 — No sound.

*2019-02-10, version 4.0*

How can this be helpful when they don’t tell you the words or letters. The sound icon is off but no sound.
