Didn’t work. The app is bad developed and the sound is incredibly low. I delete it after 10 minutes ### 1/5 — Fake *2024-05-13, version 1.2.633* I had downloaded it through appadvice. And it said i can download it for free for lifetime with code gonefree2024 but it didn't work. Total fake ### 1/5 — Audio doesn’t play on the speaker *2024-05-12* You have to listen to stories like you are on a phone call holding the phone to your head. ### 1/5 — Promo code not working please fix *2024-05-12, version 1.2.633* The redeem code to claim as advertised for life time $0 subscription didn’t work hence disappointed & will delete ### 1/5 — Bossy weirdo *2024-01-12* After two pages it stops and says I have no connection every time 😡😡😡😡🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬 **Developer response:** We apologize for the inconvenience.

She hates every other attempt of mine to get her to read. I think she loves hearing her voice upon playback. My 3 year old also “reads” by repeating after me. I love how I am able to instill a love to read at such an early age!! ### 5/5 — Looks excellent and really nice offer so thanks for that! *2024-05-12* Yet to really use the app so shall report back with feedback but from what I see it appears to be very good with different skills from reading out loud to having g the books do all the talking. Can see this being a great help to little ones learning to read. I grew up in a time where I was labelled naughty and spanked a lot (how times change eh!?) with a cane and a big Dunlop trainer they called a slipper but it hurt a lot more than any slipper would. I learned very early how to read so just taught myself reading books on subjects I liked,my adhd had me in and out of many schools but I was always so happy that i had learned how to read. It is so important in life and even tho book reading isn’t as big as it was I think it’s very important for kids to learn what books give to us in terms of education and knowledge not to mention just pure joy and entertainment etc This looks like a super way for kids of today to learn the skills needed for the life ahead of them… 📖📚 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ ### 5/5 — My kids learn to read!!! *2023-07-29* I use this app to motivate my kindergartener to read. She hates every other attempt of mine to get her to read. I think she loves hearing her voice upon playback. My 3 year old also “reads” by repeating after me. I love how I am able to instill a love to read at such an early age!! ### 5/5 — Great app for anyone who enjoys reading *2023-07-25* The way the music and sound effects match the story when you flip through the pages is just awesome, especially for kids. Plus, they have got a bunch of stories to choose from and they are always adding more. Thanks for the app! ### 4/5 — Would be great to have other language *2024-05-13* The app looks great, would it be possible to add French language please? ### 4/5 — Great way to read with your kids *2023-07-29* I love using this app to read at bedtime with my kids. My kids love recording their own voices reading the pages. I read it aloud and then they record themselves reading it after. And then the app mixes in sound effects and music to make it more fun. ### 3/5 — No switch music button off *2024-05-13* Please add a button to switch the music off. It would be great if you added the French language. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
