I loved this app a long time ago and even played it everyday! 2: What’s the frickin point?! It’s really low exercise and you can get more exercise just by doing jumping jacks or getting a fitness video game such as ring fit adventure! In that game you have to run in place to move and do intense exercises to attack your enemies such as 15-second long chair poses and squeeze your ring to break boulders!!!! And in this game you just move your hands just to play and duck to avoid threats! How simple is that? If you don’t want to get skinny like me I would choose ring fit adventure! 3: It’s actually kinda boring… that’s kinda why I deleted it quite recently… the other reason why is because I’m 10 now! I liked it 3 years ago! Thx and happy gaming! -DogeBread64 aka CowBuster48 ### 4/5 — I like the game *2021-07-03, version 4.0.0* I like the game but there should be a game were you ave to repeat the music with your hands ### 3/5 — So so *2021-03-12, version 2.0.0* My only complaint was that the login was really hard to access and to this day I still haven’t been able to do it so that’s my only real complaint I guess but I still do recommend this game it’s just really hard to login **Developer response:** Thank you so much for your feedback! ### 4/5 — I HATE IN APP PURCHASES *2020-12-07, version 2.0.0* Please remove the in app purchases I’m 7 and my parents won’t let me get them but overall i love this game ### 3/5 — Ok but you there is a lot few problems *2020-10-03, version 1.2.1* I like this A bit game but really needs more characters beacause the game only has five sections wich is not the best and just plz make more sections I been playing this game by may 🙄 🙄🙄😠 and I prefer go noddle better and make a few things in the game by the way I am a seven year old telling you this ### 5/5 — Amazing Brain Break *2020-10-01, version 1.2.1* I’ve been working with our school’s childcare program (during the day) since we started hybrid and have about 8 kids at a time. They absolutely LOVE this app. It’s such a great incentive between working sessions. I hook it up to the smart board and have my iPad sitting right in front and they even take turns like champs. I love it. ### 5/5 — Wonderful Resource for Remote Learners *2020-09-30, version 1.2.1* This is a fantastic app, especially for little ones. I use this for quick movement breaks when my kids need to get the wiggles out and get their focus back before continuing school. ### 5/5 — This app is the best! I HIGHLY recommend it! *2020-08-13, version 1.1.0* Ok first of all this app is really fun it’s good to get exercise but I think it needs more fun games! But also if possible maybe make some games involving moving your legs or feet? Mostly because the games move your arms, which is great! But maybe to get your legs moving. Other then all that this app is amazing I highly recommend it! **Developer response:** Thank you so much for your feedback! We think you'll be happy with some updates coming soon :) ### 5/5 — Highly recommend *2020-07-25, version 1.1.0* My brother is always hyper and energetic, but he always gets bored . When I downloaded this game it was the perfect solution, it never gets old. He loves it so much . I recommend it for 4/11 year olds. But although I would truly appreciate it if you had more games on the app. I think that to most people that is the main problem, there are only 4 games in the app . Thanks for your time **Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback! So glad your brother enjoys the games. More games coming later this year! :) ### 4/5 — It’s ok 👌🏻 *2020-07-18, version 1.1.0* I wish there were more games there’s only 4 but the rest is good ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Very loud noises *2023-10-26* When I first downloaded the app it made my child feel scared then he play a game when you finish the game it made the kids shouting yay sound this made my son cry I immediately reinstalled it made my child feel safe again immediately delete that sound!! P.S. (same thing on the gonoodle website whenever you level up your champ) ### 1/5 — Problem *2021-02-07, version 2.0.0* It won’t let me move in one of the games ### 1/5 — No DO NOT GET THIS! *2020-12-03, version 2.0.0* I downloaded it for my little brother and I had to pay to get the new games such a rip off! ### 1/5 — It doesn’t work! *2020-09-15, version 1.2.1* I downloaded this by a friend’s recommendation. My 6-year-old got a kick out of the videos and the games looked perfect for him. I downloaded this app on my iPad pro (most current iOS) and gave it permission to access the camera. There is no sound ever, and once we launch a game - get the iPad set down, it recognizes the face and waving hands - it then just shows my son on camera with nothing happening. No bubbles, no soccer balls, nothing. I tried deleting the app and reloading, as well as restarting my iPad. Nada. Would LOVE to get this game working and give it a proper review! **Developer response:** We'd love to help you troubleshoot this issue if you're still having trouble. Please send us an email at support@gonoodle.com so we can follow up. -GoNoodle Support ### 1/5 — Find a better way *2020-07-14, version 1.1.0* The app concept is good but using the hand control in the beginning of each game is a challenge for me and my child. Please find a better way to sense the player. Getting through the set up was hard making the child frustrated. ### 1/5 — Worst game ever *2020-05-21, version 1.1.0* I was playing this game but it doesn’t have sound ### 1/5 — Crashes constantly *2020-04-01, version 1.0.0* Can't play any of the games, the app crashes before it starts. Every. Single. Time. Stick with regular Go Noodle to ease frustration. ### 1/5 — No sound *2020-03-15, version 1.0.0* Sound isn’t working unfortunately ### 2/5 — Only soccer game works *2020-11-26, version 2.0.0* Can someone tell me how I can access the other games in the pack? When we open the app, we only see the screen for the soccer game. I created an account, but don’t seem to know how to do it. I have this on my phone with no issues. **Developer response:** If you're having trouble playing the games, we'd love to help. Please have a grown up send us an email at support@gonoodle.com so we can follow up. -GoNoodle Support ### 3/5 — It’s ok *2022-08-28, version 5.1.2* It’s great in all but I have only been able to get on it once it just goes to a dark green screen and takes it 3 hours to load ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Cool App. *2023-08-16* Hi I’m just a 9 year old girl and writing a review on my Dads account. So I love GoNoodle Games! It is fun and addicting. I use GoNoodle at school and I love it! Btw, so I got GoNoodle on the tv and I saw the GoNoodle games app so I got it on my iPad. I love playing all the games! My favorite game is the Space Race game. In class, we watch GoNoodle videos and we sometimes play the games. This game is super fun oh and btw my dad said he has to leave a parent note this is what we do when I rate apps. Bye! Parent’s Note: Hi! We’ve been using GoNoodle Games for 4 years and we absolutely love it! Bye ### 5/5 — I LOVE GONOODLEGAMES OMG MY CLASS LOVES IT *2023-03-04* Ok first oval this game is the best!!! And very entertaining!! I have a kindergarten class and every time we need a movement break we do gonoodleGames about 5-12 minutes a day!! My kindergarten class just loves it!! They are extremely into it! (It’s like the only thing the listen to!) they let the People on there talk but they never let me talk when I’m trying to teach lol! They do it all the time at carline and when we have recess if it’s a raining day!> one of my students drew me a character from gonoodegames! That’s how much they like it! And parents have reached out to me and said “my kid is telling me about this go noodle app that they do at school and we downloaded it!” Thank you guys keep up the great work!! ### 5/5 — Amazing *2022-12-23, version 5.1.2* Truly a great game ### 5/5 — 1st Grade Teacher gives an A+ *2022-12-14, version 5.1.2* I’ve been looking for short games to fill in those extra 5-10 minutes in between subjects! (The online version of GoNoodle is amazing as well!) This is a MUST for all teachers, but especially for new ones like myself that don’t quite have a regular routine set. So if you are in need of some fill-in activities or for regular daily lesson plans, try these games (and the online “GoNoodle” as well) I am using this now, pretty regularly but I will be incorporating GoNoodle into my day-to-day routine starting with 2023! Thank you guys for sharing this with us! ### 5/5 — I am sweating to death because this game is amazing !! *2021-08-18, version 5.0.0* Hi there I was usually really bored so I found this there was a GoNoodle and a go noodle games app!! I didn’t seem to love the GoNoodle one because it was just videos I guess but I did download this one I tried out the free games since I am six but seriously I didn’t even have to download with the password I know the password but it’s private!!(don’t share it my thing) so um I was trying at all the games and I was sweating because it was so much fun but I was thinking how to get back yard scramble!It didn’t say on the chart where you pick the games so I was wondering to say a review but this is highly recommended! ### 5/5 — DOWNLOAD THIS NO QUESTIONS ASKED!!! *2021-06-07, version 4.0.0* My fam loves electronics, and we needed exercise so I showed them this app and we were moving like deer in hunting season! One question though, can you make avatars? Me and my sisters NEVER agree, so we need our own personal list of likes and dislikes. This will benefit because everyone has different interests and opinions. This game is awesome otherwise, and thank you for bringing fun and consider this in the next update. ### 5/5 — Best app ever *2021-02-17, version 2.0.0* I love this app me and my cousin use it because were so hyper it is really fun. ### 5/5 — GONOODLES THE BEST *2020-12-22, version 2.0.0* I love it just tried it thanks for making it but next time don’t make anything you have to buy it I want to do party pack but it. Cost money I don’t like that part ### 5/5 — Hana Ahmed *2020-11-29, version 2.0.0* I love the GoNoodle Games app because it gets me moving my body and stuff that is why I love it sooo much ### 5/5 — Awesome *2020-11-17, version 1.2.1* It’s awesome My sisters love to play after school and they make me play too I love to play this once in a while.
