Overpriced

This is only for 1 cycle and it’s very basic. Unimpressed and disappointed.

Should be ONE app with all three

.

Family Sharing: FALSE

This app says up to six people can share it. I’m the father of a large family and we share many apps. But this one will NOT work. It requires $10/child, for each cycle.
CC should do better than to make false claims.

Songs have terrible quality

Buy the cds instead, the quality is terrible

No song for each subject?

I have been with CC for a few years and me and my kids definitely enjoy it. But why isn’t there a song for each subject? We struggle with Science the most because there are no songs for it. Plus, it’s way too overpriced. I found out they have the songs for free on YouTube! Plus others who created their own songs. I feel scammed for paying my money when they were FREE! And I wish you could skip the intro at the beginning and just go to the song. Disappointed 😔

stop do not text me

reading is so much better than wasting your data?

No songs?

I was disappointed to see that there are no songs that included in the app. I was hoping that this would be a review option for us, but without music, it is not helpful at all. It basically just reads the foundations book to you.

Would be 5 stars

Would be 5 stars if we had the full timeline and presidents song. The spoken word is boring and we generally skip them. Would love that updated!

No Timeline Song, No Repeat Option

My husband is in tech development, so I know how hard it is! The features and items currently in this app work as they should, not glitchy, appears to have downloaded all content locally to my device, which in my case I prefer since I have the memory space and my internet connection is unreliable. For some people that could be a negative, if their device’s memory is already full.

I hope the developers listen to the reviewers for future updates. Until then, I won’t purchase any more cycles.

Some things parents would find indispensable:

We need the timeline song, as so many have already pointed out. Specifically, the timeline song as a video that flips through pictures of the history cards. Make sure it’s timestamped, and we can move backward and forward, and have a continuous play (repeat) option. I have seen this resource in existence on a resource PC disk I once had, so the content is basically there, just needs to be added.

Also, we need flexibility to create playlists, to play all the subjects from the same week on repeat, or to just repeat a single track. Also, most of us don’t want to listen to the talking/narration before the songs, so an option to turn that on or off. Most children memorize best with the music, and the narration only wastes our time trying to get to the song part.

Along the lines of playlists, also a feature that keeps playing, so we can listen in the car to a whole subject at once, or one week after another, without needing to hit the “skip” button to move on.

Keep up the good and difficult work—I look forward to these features being added in the future.

Sucky ducky

Sucky…

Some annoyances

You should be able to skip the narration before the history songs, or even not have them at all. It’s annoying waiting for a boring narration before singing the song.

Why can’t we filter by week?

Since the entire premise of CC is based on a WEEKLY system, the home page needs to have the information available by WEEKS. This shouldn’t be a revolutionary concept. So now I need to go into each individual subject and then scroll a ton of pages to get to the current week. How is this remotely helpful, at all? Ridiculous app.

Waste of money

All it does is read aloud the sentence. Complete waste of money. No songs like cycle 3

Helpful, but would be much better with songs

I found this app helpful, especially if we were out and about, but it would be a thousand times better if it had the songs. So a plea to CC / the app developer - please add the songs

Good but not Great

Disappointed with what did not come with the app. For the hefty price of the app, you would think it would include everything but unfortunately it hardly includes any of the songs, the timeline section doesn’t even includes words (just pictures), and no Presidents.

Disappointed

This App is disappointing to me. I though it would have all the songs with the memory work but it only has the Math songs. Major waste of money.

Needs Improvement

One of my favorite aspects of the CC memory work is the timeline song, which is NOT included?! What a disappointment. I sure hope that they listen to all of this feedback and decide to update.

Overpriced and simple

This is a cleanly designed, but very simple app. All three cycles together isn’t worth $16, let alone for just one cycle! If you want this app to earn such a price tag, it needs to do more than rudimentary menus and audio. And the spoken audio should be separated from the songs so that you can listen to the songs without having to listen to the spoken each time.

It’s okay

It really needs the Timeline song and the President’s song. My Challenge student said they changed the timeline tune. My younger kids can’t remember so they’re no help. Guess we’re just singing the old tune until it’s added to the app. I also did not appreciate being forced to buy the app again after changing from android to iPhone. I already paid for the material. Why pay again? Especially for such a pricey app. I’m willing to upgrade my rating if they add the songs

No Songs included

Unless they are hiding somewhere the app doesn’t include any of the songs that will be commonly used on community day.
