### 3/5 — Needs Improvement

*2014-04-19*

I love foldify animals, but when ever I try to print an animal it crashes. I also think it could use more varieties of animals.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Online resources no longer work

*2019-01-11, version 1.8.5*

This used to be a great app until the online resources stopped working.  Do not buy.

### 1/5 — Some features do not work

*2017-09-09, version 1.8.3*

Unfortunately it looks like the developer has not kept up with the iOS releases. Some functionality does not work, including the stamps and the online store.

### 1/5 — Mmmmm?

*2016-06-06*

Cannot even get to the editor never mind use my camera gallery

### 1/5 — Great but please fix

*2014-04-24, version 1.0*

My daughter loves this app , spends lots of time colouring in all the animals and having lots of fun , but the app keeps crashing every time we try and print an animal out ! Please fix , if fixed the app would be 5 star and we recommend it to every parent !

### 1/5 — This game is 💀

*2014-04-19*

Thought was good but it stinks

### 1/5 — This had one Job...

*2014-04-19*

This app had one job... Print to my printer.  Instead it crashes just as the print dialog says 'connecting to printer'.  Now I have three upset kids instead of a fun art project.

### 2/5 — Disappointed

*2015-10-29, version 1.7.5*

After the last update the app just stopped working properly, it became a feat just to open a new animal and let alone paint on the pattern, this app was my daughter's favourite, please fix this bug!

### 2/5 — Crashes

*2014-04-27, version 1.0*

Keeps crashing when trying to print, just paid for this! Refund my money!!!!!!!!!!!!!

### 3/5 — How to get a 4....

*2014-05-11*

My first graders love this app....and so do I!   As a teacher, however, I would love to have more animals included!

### 3/5 — crashes when printing every time

*2014-04-21*

CONS:
App needs fixed!
Crashes when printing to HP photosmart series. From other reviews it appears to crash on most printers. The work-around is to email yourself a PDF of the animal and then print from mail.

App needs more animals! Only has 10, most are the same base shape.

PROS:
The app is smart enough to remember what you were doing and will recover your customizations after crash/non-print.

Customization of your animal is live. You paint on right side of screen and view the rendered 3d on 
left. Gives a true view of what your final folded animal will look like.

ANALYSIS:
Needs two or three more base shapes. The overall idea is awesome, but the content is underdeveloped. 

Must be able to print without crashing to justify current price. Until the printing is fixed or UI addresses workaround the price should be .99 cents or less.

### 5/5 — Looks great!

*2014-07-26*

Love the new theme!

### 5/5 — Great

*2014-07-17, version 1.1.1*

This is a great development of the original foldify. My daughter, who loves animals and crafts, is exceedingly taken by it. Thoroughly recommended.

### 5/5 — superb

*2014-05-29*

hi quality images that are a lot of fun to construct with the kids

### 5/5 — Amazing!

*2014-04-28*

Worked great, very fun. No crashes, bugs, or glitches. I like how they put facts about the animals, and how you can customize them, as well as print other peoples creations. Overall, a very nicely made app, no doubt about it. Even with an iPad second generation,it printed and worked very well.

### 4/5 — Almost 5 stars... Great but...

*2020-02-16*

First off, a genuine, heart-felt THANK YOU to the developers for a suite of apps that can provide immense fun and countless opportunities for learning and problem-solving. 

Now to what needs immediate —I mean immediate— attention:

The Zoo online library is not loading at all (We have a strong cable WiFi connection). The Guides for each app are not loading either. Wrote twice to the honorable developers. No response. This was a Valentine’s present (yes, I bought the whole package for $14.99, although I already had the free Foldify , which I love) for my niece.

The Guides (a how-to for each app) are very much needed. Why? Because it is not that simple to build an actual paper model. It looks self-explanatory when you review the models online. Just print, cut, fold, glue, you’re done, right? NOT SO AT ALL! What kind of paper to print on? What kind of glue is best? Which fold to glue first? Which fold to glue last? Should we score the fold lines first? 

Yes, I am a techie by trade (Apple expert) and have infinite troves of patience. But finishing 3 personalized hearts in time for a family Valentine’s Day dinner almost pushed me over the edge. How do you finish glueing-shut a heart-shaped box without disturbing or tearing other sides? Are some tabs tucked and glued inside the wall, and some tabs meant to be glued outside?

Now you see what I mean. Each model has its own challenge, which a well-made Guide must cover, with clear explanations.

A minor nuisance: the online library in Foldify shows 3 categories: “Best,” “Trending” and “Newest”. I don’t know what kind of algorithms govern those, but don’t expect “Best,” for instance, to be true to your expectations: some show plain blank models uploaded for some reason that defy the imagination.

All told, have fun! The possibilities are endless, hoping the developers can give us a much-needed help here.

### 4/5 — Great app for School Age Children

*2014-10-18*

Like app and I use it with my SAC job.

### 4/5 — Good idea

*2014-05-05*

E mail the pdf to yourself and print from there.
More animals, please.  Domestics, maybe?
Farm ? Fun for kids.

### 4/5 — Cool

*2014-04-21, version 1.0*

Crash also when printing. Did erase and re-install the app and close the ipad to reboot. And it worked.

### 4/5 — Cool app but....

*2014-04-20, version 1.0*

Cool app but when ever I try to print it crashes... Need update . Other then that it's great

### 4/5 — Excellent follow up

*2014-04-19*

This is an excellent follow up to Foldify. The info on each animal is limited but would be good for the target audience.

My one complaint is that the patterns you can use in "coloring in" mode don't tile well - they don't match at the edges.
