Wish they added in new ones

I like their puzzles but wish they added in new ones. Feels like it’s the same old puzzles.

App no longer loads

App won’t even load. Not going to keep paying to subscribe if the app isn’t working.

One picture

I got the app and deleted it. I realized there was only one picture to do per category, you have to pay to get more.

It is a blast

Iudrhfyehfurhfehfuehfuehfuehfuehfuefhefnuenfeuhfuehfunfeufn love it so much because. Iijnufhehfbeufh3ufhuhf3uhffu

Best hidden object puzzle

No one does hidden objects like Highlights. These objects are integrated into the picture which makes it fun and hard but not too hard.

Tips

I love it but you only get one or zero puzzles to do and then theres bugs with the stars and i just keep on getting annoyed by it

Downloaded for grand child

I got exactly 1 puzzle without paying. Can’t even tell with 1 puzzle if we like it. Not worth taking up space on my iPad. Deleted

Put some pictures were locked

I DID not want to pay bad app if you don’t want to play I don’t want to pay for a stupid game I HATE PLAYING THIS GAME !!!!!

Not in-app purchases

14 days free then a pay wall, that is not in-app purchases.

Then a get a canned response because of this review that makes it sound like they’re going to charge me and that I have a subscription.

“ Oh no! We hope everyone will want to try the Hidden Pictures app! You can use the app for free for the trial period before the monthly fee begins. If you want to “Decide Later” you still get puzzles to play while you think about it. A lot of hard work and creativity, based on years of experience and research, goes into each batch of Hidden Pictures puzzles so they are not only fun, but help kids learn and grow! You can stop the subscription at any time if you don’t like it, but we hope you’ll feel the Hidden Pictures are worth the price."”

Good App

This is a fun app that brings back memories from my
Childhood.

Not for me

1- Your puzzles don’t fit my iPad screen, they are smaller.
2- When you zoom in, the game thinks an item is being selected, which is kind of annoying. And sometimes it would find an item, which is more disappointing.
3- The hidden objects are not the same size as the ones to be found.
4- It should allow for screen rotation.
Sorry, not going with the subscription.

Poor customer service

I contacted customer service via chat to find out how to get to the easy puzzles for smaller children. She did not help, said she didn’t know, gave me a link to try to look it up myself, and the link did not work. When I told her it didn’t work, she said she’d let them know and closed the chat.

Music

I like this application I used to get so relaxed with doing the image search

The music used to relaxed me. I downloaded it once again and I see it has no sound background no more.. it makes me sad.
My kids use it now. I wish some music background would be added once again

Nowhere near as good as the previous version

The previous version of highlights Hidden Pictures had awesome music and made cool sounds when you tapped on different parts of the screen. The previous version was much more interactive and entertaining for the children. This one is very boring and drab.

Subscription seems to provide no added features

I have always loved doing the hidden picture puzzles in the Highlights magazine and really enjoy this game. However, I paid for the subscription thinking I would get additional puzzles, but no. So what am I paying a subscription for? Also, several puzzles have pics just outside/at edge of screen that you can’t see without using the hint button. Reading other reviews and response from the developer this was supposed to have been fixed 3 yrs ago but it has not. Additionally, there were several puzzles where when you tap on the hidden item it wouldn’t register. It took a while but I eventually discovered that if I tapped up and to the left (so not at all on the pic) it would register. Very frustrating. After multiple reloads (where each time I lost my progress), it finally fixed itself. Love the puzzles that are there, but will be canceling my subscription.
Edit: I did exactly what the developer suggested below MULTIPLE times prior to leaving my review. It did nothing other than cause me to lose my progress each time. This is not a user issue. I have since canceled my subscription.

How we like this game?

We like this game but it this game we have to buy which is kinda off the charts, but we love this game and it’s only for like four dollars a month

This game is sooooo nostalgic!

I’ve been doing “Highlights” since I was little, and I still do, today, but, I’d really like it if the developers kept updating the game, I’d love some new Racer Puzzles! I already did most of them! They’re probably my favorite puzzle! So, if your reading this, please do your best, just like you always do! Keep up the HIDDEN work! (Get it?;)) Sincerely, anonymous “Highlights lover.

Thank You For All My Languages, It’s Makes me So Happy!

Almost No Free Levels

You get a few free levels and have to pay for a subscription after that. Ridiculous rip off!
