HELP! THIS GAME IS GLITCHING OUT! TABTALE, FIX THIS GLITCH! DX

Great app

I remember that childhood app! Thanks to your developer who created this app

Doesnโ€™t work

Will not work with iPhone X. everything is updated. Still does not work at all.....

Adverts

Couldn't really get into this. The adverts are continually touched my kids making it impossible to use. Don't know what the solution would be. Maybe no ads for ten minutes so you could at least try the app out

Way too many ads

Seriously spammy.

Toddler loves it but too many pop ups

Our toddler (2 1/2) loves this game so we paid for the full version as the pop up adverts were driving him & us crazy. Paid the full amount - still pop ups. Even on opening the game the first thing it does is pop up an advert. Not impressed. Save your money

What gives? Ads?

What kind of program for clumsy toddlers has a ginormous ad bar across the bottom to kick them out into a web browser? I need something my kid can play with safely, not something that will easily send them out into the wilderness of the Internet. Worse than useless, dangerous. Uninstalled.

Stole my money

Way too many ads and everything was locked. I paid $3.99 to unlock and now there's still some ads and app won't budge from main screen. I've tried clicking everything to enter and can't figure it out. This is supposed to be user friendly for 2 year olds!!?

Scam app. Don't download

This app has boxes that pop up at random times and when your toddler touches this pop up it will subscribe you to premium SMS services.
It will cost you a lot.
Again this is a scam.

Too many ads, not worth it

My kid can't even play this for more than 10 seconds without hitting an ad & switching to Safari. There is a coloring book with only a few pictures; the rest are padlocked & are in-app purchases. Ridiculous!

In app purchase pop ups!

I installed this for my daughter. While painting it would pop up ad to buy things from the developer for $0.99. Then open the App Store for other apps to be installed, point the browser to financial websites, and it wanted to use my location. As an IT professional, I advise you avoid this app.

Kids love it, but they don't have to purchase it multiple times

It is clever to put the ads at the bottom of a game for toddlers - because they are bound to hit it repeatedly and parents may be inclined to go ahead and purchase just to stop the ads. But - why doesn't that carry over to multiple devices? I have twin two year olds. I have the app on my iPad - but yesterday both boys wanted to play it. So I downloaded it to my phone, only to find ads again. It's so disappointing to read the reviews and see so many people back to 2012 loving the app, but having the same complaint. I had started searching for more by the same company but it doesn't make sense to have to purchase the app for each separate device we have - so I won't purchase more until that is corrected. Very disappointing.

Cheated

My boy loved TabTale's apps, so I paid to upgrade quite a few of them to the full versions without ads. But lo and behold, the ads are back, bigger and more intrusive than ever! I feel really conned by this company.

Do not purchase!!!

My son loves this app. It was his favorite but he would often get frustrated with the ads and the fact that most of the puzzles and things were only available after purchasing the full version. I finally broke down and bought the full version and it was great! We were very happy until we got a new device and discovered that we must purchase the whole thing over again if we want it. I feel cheated, and my son is very upset. Upon reading reviews it seems others are having trouble with it disappearing when the app updates too, which we have not yet experienced. Do not purchase the full version!!! It is a waste of money and they will try and cheat you out if it again and again.

Junk

Downloaded full version of this app for my son and once the update was done on March 31, 2014. everything was locked on my iPad for him. this app is garbage. I'm so disappointed in this company I will never download something from them again.

Doesn't know we bought the previous version

This would be five stars (our 2.5 yo loves the TabTale games we've bought so far) except we bought the previous version before noticing there was an update. Right after updating the app is locked again and asking us to buy it again. Se never even saw the unlocked previous version so she's not as upset as her parents are about this!

Leave Alone.

Toddler loved it so we bought the full version, We then had update and now we have to pay again so leave alone.

yet another stupid game

The app store abounds with bad games. This is one of them.

It is further annoying to delete since the name listed in the โ€œAppsโ€ page of iTunes doesnโ€™t match the name on the iPhone screen.

Rubbish

I don't see why a game that is designed for toddlers has a banner for a slots app!! Whyyy??
