*2025-02-01*

Hi guys, I’m trying to tell you about on this app. I forget it really quick. I’m so sorry and that this is very great for me and that’s very nice. I got a create everything and I can’t tell you my name or anything because I would go out to the Internetapp this app just because of this you love it

It’s great

### 5/5 — Magic!

*2025-01-09, version 0.9.11*

It truly is magic steps! My 5 year old daughter, who currently refuses to use the bathroom by herself, did her entire morning routine today on her own, including going to the bathroom without me! She was so proud of herself.

### 5/5 — Game changer for grumpy mornings

*2024-11-14*

This app has truly saved our mornings! Literally all I have to do is turn on the phone and lay it on my grumpy 6 year old’s pillow and go back into my room. 30 seconds later she will come walking in, phone in hand, to use the bathroom. It’s also no longer a fight to get her to brush her teeth because “princesses need clean teeth 😀). Highly recommend this to anyone with young kids to get ready in the morning.

**Developer response:** Thank you for your honest and priceless review. We are so encouraged to hear that it has helped improve morning routines in your household.

### 5/5 — Love the app

*2024-10-15*

Ok so I love the app, but the only thing I wish you could do is change the picture of the ones of the taps you could create like when you create like if you theme is unicorns and you wanna add your morning routine you wanna add do my hair and put my claw clip in you can’t add like a hairbrush. You have to keep it with that little face. That’s the only thing I wish you could really add but I love the app five stars.🩷🩷🩷🩷🩷

### 5/5 — Best app ever

*2024-10-05, version 0.9.5*

IT HELPS SO FREAKING MUCH I LOVE IT

### 5/5 — Like the name of the app, it’s magic!

*2024-08-08*

What a fun way to get my kids to get ready for bed at night. As we are gearing up for back to school soon and wanting to get back into a routine, this app has helped make nighttime smoother. I just hit play and let the app take over helping my kid brush her teeth, get her PJs on and get ready for bed without my constant nagging her about every step. She loves that we can customize the adventure theme each time and hearing her own name. Just wish it had some more music options but otherwise it’s great!

### 1/5 — Not working

*2026-07-26, version 0.9.15*

Pretty disappointed with this app since we’ve really liked the original Huckleberry app for both our kids. 
I set up a morning and night routine for my toddler and when I went to use it for the first time it was just a blank white screen, nothing ever loaded. I’ve tried reinstalling the app and still nothing. 
So, it seemed great and I was excited to use it but haven’t even gotten the chance to really try it.

### 1/5 — Stopped working and no help

*2026-06-21*

This app was great until it stopped working (won’t load, just a white screen) and support hasn’t replied to our request for help - it’s been 5 days). We have this on two phones and neither works. Both have the current iOS, we’ve restarted the app several times, uninstalled and reinstalled a couple times - nothing makes a difference). This is a real disappointment because it was working great and super helpful and now it’s completely unusable and we are receiving no support).

### 1/5 — It now doesn’t work

*2026-06-16*

It doesn’t let me go on I have been waiting for it for 15 minutes and it’s just not loading fix this bug now

### 1/5 — disappointed it's ai

*2026-04-11, version 0.9.15*

it's ai slop sadly

### 1/5 — Won’t be Using Again

*2024-10-30, version 0.9.7*

App was kind of a letdown: every routine is basically the same, the voice is very fake. Thought it would be something fun and helpful but my daughter thought it was a robot and was very uninterested.

### 1/5 — App trash

*2024-10-30, version 0.9.7*

Lots of bugs and bad story lines that don’t make sense

### 3/5 — Love the idea…needs work

*2024-08-16*

I absolutely love the idea of building fun into a bedtime routine - the kids love it too! However, when I try to create a new adventure from a set routine, I’ve been unsuccessful in having it work. Also, if there are multiple children in the home with the same routine, it doesn’t make sense to have two different adventures. It would be nice if there was a way to have both kids automatically reflected into the routine/adventure rather than an account for each child. Will definitely continue to use and looking forward to the updates as things are ironed out.

### 4/5 — Awesome..for a week

*2026-07-23*

Omg, this app is (well, was…) a massive game changer, I wanted to do my routine, until It stopped working! I’ve been so cross ever since! Sort out this major bug so that I can like my routine again!
By a 10 year old.

### 4/5 — Awesome

*2024-09-18*

I have been a big fan of the other huckleberry app, so was excited to see an app of this type from the same company. I love the available options and the customization of the steps. I would like to be able to name different routines. For example, morning routine for weekdays and another for weekends. I know I can save different ones, but without opening it I cannot tell the difference because little guy is only into dinosaurs right now. I also noticed that the voice says “dino” very oddly, so much so that my child doesn’t recognize that that is what they are trying to say. It’s like “deeno “ rather than pronouncing it normally. These are minor nitpicks, and overall the app functionality is great.

**Developer response:** Hi there, thank you for your feedback! We are so glad you are overall experiencing the magic of MagicSteps. This is great feedback we will share with our product team.

### 4/5 — Great Idea - Just Needs Editing Features

*2024-08-05*

This app is great!!! I just think it’s missing a few things to make it even better: 

1. a way to edit a routine that’s already been created - specifically the amount of time each task takes - without having to generate a new one entirely
2. the ability to choose the routine’s title
3. a way to delete routines instead of only keeping the most recent 3
4. a better way to scroll the page up or down when dragging/readjusting the order of tasks (or the ability to click in between tasks to enter a new one)
5. ability to choose icons for custom tasks
6. making the task suggestion section at the bottom smaller so more of the list can be seen

**Developer response:** Hi there, Thank you so much for your review! We appreciate your feedback and will share it with our product team! We are continuously working to create the best app we can so you can keep experiencing the magic!

### 5/5 — The best app

*2026-04-17, version 0.9.15*

100/10

### 5/5 — Yas

*2026-03-19, version 0.9.15*

So I’m an older kid and I use this app. I love it so much.

### 5/5 — Ended bedtime battles

*2025-09-07*

Truly lived up to the name— it was like flipping a magic switch from endless standoffs (“put your pjs on NOW! 1! 2!…”) to a fun adventure. I like being able to tweak the content with custom steps and edits to the stories. The text-to-speech pronunciation isn’t always perfect for some character names, and I’d appreciate some more music choices, but other than that it’s worked pretty perfectly!

### 5/5 — I love this

*2025-07-27*

I love this app it helps me with my routine and I’ve Improved with my routines for the day I give this app a 5 star

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2025-07-17*

I love it it helps me so much  we need more apps like this 😍

### 5/5 — I absolutely love this app!

*2025-05-13*

It’s great and free and very creative. I love how you can make your own custom theme. I just wish the adventures were a bit more like a story so the kids don’t get bored while it’s just music playing. Overall, great app! It’s free and has no ads so the kids can relax. Just maybe make the adventures a bit more but not too intriguing. 😊

### 5/5 — The Magic App

*2025-03-28*

This app is a game changer! My 4 year old struggles to sleep at bedtime but I used this for the first time and it was magical. My daughter slept without any struggle. I wish more parents knew about this app.

### 5/5 — Routines

*2025-03-03*

I just got this app two days ago and my 2 year old daughter loves it. I had a hard time getting her to do her night routine and I set this app up for her and now she does it with no issues. It does a little adventure story and she wanted babies for night time and dinosaurs for mornings. And she just loves the way it says her name and everything.

### 5/5 — App is great

*2025-02-25*

It is a great app it helped my daughter so much it as all was been 
hard for her to get to bed on time

### 5/5 — Game Changer

*2025-02-07*

I’ve only used this twice so far, once in the morning and once in the evening. My 7 year old son LOVES it! Getting ready for school in the morning and going to bed at night has been challenging to say the least. Last night he was asleep before his sibling came into the room, which he usually waits for and stays up talking to. This morning he was the first one ready in the car when usually he is the last one making everyone late. It was awesome to see the thrill in his eyes as the app said his name and explained the next step in his mission. I created Minecraft and Pokémon versions, I was impressed with the AI to pull names of characters and details from the game and tv show to put in the prompts. To put it simply, this morning when dropping my son off for school he told me, “Mom, you know the Minecraft and Pokémon thing? I want to do that every day. I loved it!”
