### 3/5 — Good but not the best

*2021-08-04, version 3.0*

See I like this app as I started today but only 2 activities are free and the rest cost money so it would be great if you could make more free cause I am just an amateur

**Developer response:** Thanks for your review.Free content is for you to try out and get an experience of the look and feel of the app. The rest of content will be unlocked with an in-app purchase.

### 3/5 — Needs payment

*2020-12-22, version 3.0*

The free content is a fraction, and it makes no sense if you do not know any Tamil going in. A child would have to have an adult helping while they use the app to learn anything, because there is no direction or help.

**Developer response:** The free content is just an intro to vowels and few other basic words in Tamil. This is just an introductory app. Picture gives an idea of what the word means. And for other sections ,corresponding English meaning is also shown for people new to Tamil.

### 5/5 — I love this app!

*2018-08-14, version 3.0*

This app is very useful to introduce Tamil to kids. ன,ண,ல,ழ,ள pronunciations are clearly differentiated. Kids get related to the word easily by seeing the picture and hearing the sound simultaneously. The quiz section (like game) is also good. More such games can be added to make it more kids friendly.

### 4/5 — Needs enhancement still a good one

*2017-03-23, version 2.1*

Good one but needs enhancement. 
Numbers - Add 1 - 20
Shapes - Introduce shapes
Vehicles - Definitely most of them are in English. Try to change it to appropriate Tamil terms. E.g. Bus - perundhu, cycle - medivandi 
Sea animals, birds and flowers - can be added in future 
Interface - is simple & good for toddlers 

Pavithra good job.. it would be good to have all these in your future versions and toddlers will love it

**Developer response:** Will definitely keep that in mind in my next version. Thanks for the review. Will work on it.

### 2/5 — Introduces few letters and asks to get full version

*2015-03-17, version 2.1*

Unless interested in buying this app, free version doesn't have anything complete. It is like sample pages which could not be used for kids. Wish they could at least make introduction to letters completely free!
