Greedy
I cannot access even one story unless I pay
App
Really cool!
Can’t log in
Tried setting up the account using my AppleID passcode. An in-app browser opens to get set-up but after entering my passcode nothing happens. Browser stays blank and when I close it I’m not logged in. Unsubscribed and uninstalled. If it’s a hassle to even get set-up I’m not going to bother with the rest.

Can’t even log into to set it up
Tried using the logon with Apple option. It just goes in a circle of death opening a web browser logon in the app then back to the app that doesn’t work. It’s unusable. You also have to agree to pay before it’ll let you even get to that point. No thanks.
Beautiful and crazy effective for pronunciation - my kids love it
My Spanish is bad, but my 5 yr old and 7 year old started playing the game on a recent road trip, and their Spanish accents are so good now. I’m shocked! Plus, they still want to play all the time 4 months later. They are motivated by earning tons of keys as they read the stories and do the little games. CopyCat is their favorite.

Functionality
Not very user friendly it’s a kids game and I can’t figure out how to play
Requires purchase before even seeing the app?!!
Scammers wants money before you know what the app has to offer , don’t fall fir it
Trial requires credit card
I downloaded the app because the description said you can try a story for free. I was able to click the button to “explore”, pick an avatar and a nickname, and then it went into a looping ad (that you can’t back out of) to promote their 7 day free trial - just put in your payment info so they can charge you automatically when the trial ends if you didn’t cancel it first. The app might be great, but I won’t be finding that out.

Response from developer
We understand the hesitation around free trials that ask for a payment method. Apple requires a payment method on file to start any subscription free trial, but you can cancel anytime in your App Store subscriptions before day 7 so you are not charged. FabuLingua does not receive your card details. Apple handles all billing. We also hear you on the “try a story for free” wording. We are updating our store copy in our next update and improving the trial flow to make it clearer and more parent friendly. If you have any questions or want help confirming your subscription status, please reach us at support@fabulingua.com.
Glitchy and not great for little learners
App is very glitchy and doesn’t consider natural development for little learners in the length or content of lessons. There is also too much freedom to bounce around to different lessons and no real cohesiveness.
The best Spanish app for kids
This is the best thing out there! Fun and easy for kids to use!
Perfect
5/5
Scam
I signed up for a 7 day free trial and was charged the full annual subscription fee on day 2. I submitted a refund request but have not heard back.
Awful Customer Service
I bought this app on Monday as I had high hopes on starting my kids on it as part of our homeschool curriculum. I am very disappointed as I am having issues with logging into the app from our tablet so we have missed this “lesson”. I have email customer support and I have yet to received an acknowledgement that they have received my e-mail. I have been checking my junk mail on a daily basis and even that has no emails from them. I even went on FB and sent a message on the messenger and I still haven’t heard from anybody. I was really looking forwards to using the app but at this rate that excitement has dwindled.

Hi, we are so sorry that we never received your email at support@FabuLingua.com (it's important to check the spelling for fabuLINGUA.com since we can't receive emails not sent to the correct address).

We always want to make things right for our customers, so please do write to us at support@fabuLINGUA.com and we'll make sure to look after you!
Why not just be upfront about it being a subscription service?
I was setting it up when I got the ad interrupting me to tell me is was a monthly subscriptions service. No thanks. Deleted.
THE BEST!!!
I LOVE IT
Wow - love this app for my kids
There are not many educational apps that my kids beg me to do … this is one of them! They just love it, and it works just so well. I love that they’re spending their spare time reading stories and I’m so impressed with the pronunciation they’re developing! Seriously recommend.
Love this app!
As a Spanish language educator who utilizes an acquisition-driven approach in my classroom, I am so excited this app exists. It is a great addition to my teaching tool box and my students love to play. They don’t even realize they are learning since the stories, mini-games, and rewards keep them engaged. I highly recommend FabuLingua!

Am I missing something?
Homeschool mom here and I love the teaching method this program uses so I thought this would be great. I quickly subscribed after the trial and I regret it. Both my children completed all the levels on the island in under a month and there is nothing else to do now except repeat the same 12 stories and collect stickers. Please tell me I am wrong and didn’t waste $70 for a year long subscription. Extremely disappointed.

Fun!
My seven-year-old daughter has been using this often on for the last few years and it’s been fun and helpful and we have had great customer support!
