Great app but is not working with Apple OS7!
For now 1 star only.

Response from developer

Dear Sped.Teacher, While this review is now over 3 1/2 years old, Apple is now giving developers the opportunity to respond so we wanted to check in with you to see if the app is now working well for you...? When they update the IOS there is often a brief period of time where developers need to fix the code and submit a new version, and this takes some weeks to do. Let us know if it's working well now. It should! We hope you will consider updating your rating if so. Thanks, Justin @ Hamaguchi Apps

First words international home version

My daughter loves this app and it seems to be a good tool for improving her receptive vocabulary BUT it locks up frequently. I have to delete it and reload it at least 3-4 times per week and sometimes more than once in a day! I lose all of her data each time I reload it. :( Please fix this problem!

Neat app

I like this app and think it does a great job teaching objects through repetition and with different representations of the objects. My kids enjoy this one.

Response from developer

Dear WinterSLP, While it's been nearly 4 years since this was posted, Apple is now allowing developers to respond to them, yay! So we just wanted to thank you for your kind review of our app.

Great

This is a great app for learning vocabulary. I love that it presents the object in various pictures and it keeps my kids engaged. Overall, very entertaining, educational and well made.

So we wanted to just say thank you for taking the time to review it and we are glad that you like the app! We've added some cool features and updated it, so hopefully you are enjoying it even more.

A great first words app

This is a great app. We love the ability to listen and say each word and the recording feature works really well. It is also great that so many different images are used for each word. It really helps certain children categorise what can be represented by each word. Really well done. Thanks.
