### 5/5 — Review

*2016-12-31, version 1.9*

Wonderful app

### 2/5 — Only lets you play for a minute

*2016-08-04, version 1.8*

Until it asks you to buy full version, if you don't it kicks you off whatever you're playing and sends you back to the main menu. Blah!

### 2/5 — Ruined the game

*2016-04-09, version 1.8*

Deleted the app. Update greatly reduced all the games and now it is constantly asking for you the purchase. Not worth it.

### 5/5 — Excelente

*2016-04-03, version 1.8*

Los niños la aman

### 4/5 — Good

*2016-03-30, version 1.8*

Nice apps!

### 3/5 — Okay😐

*2015-08-25, version 1.8*

The game is fun but it keeps asking you to buy the full version. Also, after you exit the ad it goes back to main menu.

### 5/5 — 2yo goes to this app repeatedly.

*2015-04-26, version 1.7*

Daughter is 2 and I've had this app for like over a year but didn't pay for extended version until about 6months ago Or so. Couldn't be much happier unless was free and had more options but deff worth money and certainly well worth the space for app too

### 5/5 — All time favorite toddler app!

*2015-02-02, version 1.6*

My 2 year old started using the free version of this app when he was only 10 months old.  He loved the itsy bitsy spider song.  It was such a great app with so many colorful and fun games to offer that we purchased the full version.  It's still one of his favorite apps and he's now a pro at the puzzles.  Even his older cousins love this app for the bug race.  This app has options that appeal to a wide age range and is very good quality!

### 2/5 — No

*2015-01-08, version 1.6*

### 5/5 — Really good

*2014-12-23, version 1.6*

### 1/5 — This game is a freaking nightmare fuel

*2025-07-24, version 2.3.2*

At night appear as a normal cute spider guy, but it’s actually a nightmare game which is just really creepy the spider I’m not sure I’m surprised by that spider make it 17+ not 4+ make it 17 to make it adult game, not a baby game will get nightmares if that was Tommy nightmares do I would not recommend this game? And this game is so evil it literally just does he did they do it to be spiteful and it’s a lot. It’s a low budget. I never want to play that game really creepy. It’s like Elsa 3.0 and it’s so scary that I could even cry at one-year-old two-year-old three—year-olds will get nightmare year-old and this is trauma

### 1/5 — Not the Best

*2022-04-08, version 2.3.2*

Unfortunately, it would not let my child play the games more than twice and asked my child to buy something. This is fine because you need to make a living, however, if your going to have a kids game let them play it, and maybe don’t have something to have to play for in front of them.Thank you have a nice day! 😁

### 1/5 — 😳😳😳

Bought the app 2 yrs ago, and now having a problem restoring the full version in our iPad.

### 1/5 — Screen turns black

*2015-10-29, version 1.8*

My kids were enjoying this app but now when it tries to load the screen turns black. They can still hear the app and it still responds to taps but it doesn't show anything. Please fix.

### 1/5 — It's all about in app purchases

*2015-10-18, version 1.8*

Don't waste your time, it's all about in app purchases & the games aren't that great.

It’s a great app

### 5/5 — Another renegade of childhood

*2023-03-21, version 2.3.2*

I can’t believe I remembered playing this when I was little

You developers had such a good job on all the concepts and I f I rate this a five, I would. This game is lovely, especially the song itself. Thanks all of you, I definitely love all of this!

That’s all from me, bye!

### 5/5 — Game needs changes

*2023-01-23, version 2.3.2*

I love this game but l kinda don’t like that it doesn’t come with a full version like some games they already have a full version.

### 5/5 — I love the app I got all the games my mum love

*2020-02-23, version 2.1*

I won’t more games xd

### 5/5 — Grrrrrrrrrrreat app

*2019-06-07, version 2.1*

This app is so cool 😎 the song has lots of buildings that have water spouts for the spider to climb the games are so fun but a bug is hiding in the song sometimes there is no sound sometimes Tap tale please fix this bug.

### 5/5 — Lots of variety!

*2018-01-03, version 1.9*

My daughter loves this app! She’s 17 months and has been able to operate most of the games herself for a few months now. There are so many different things to do, that it actually holds her attention for several minutes at a time!! A+

### 5/5 — So much to do!!!

*2017-11-29, version 1.9*

My granddaughter just absolutely loves this app. She has been playing the itsy-bitsy spider song for two years and she is just four years old.
I believe children of all ages under five will find some portion of this app just right for them.
 My granddaughter, as well as myself, really like the way you can tap on different Objects during the Itsy-bitsy spider song.
She loves to tap on the trunk of the car and watch the balloons come out or when she taps on the bird it lays eggs. Signs swing, windows open and close and characters wave and say hi as well as the animals do too.
The older kids like the race between bugs? My niece who is five likes the puzzles and of course all of them like the coloring portion.
I really think this app is a winner in my eyes as well as the eyes of four different aged kids who fight to play on my phone and my iPad.

### 5/5 — No sound

*2017-03-07, version 1.9*

My grandchildren love this. I purchased the full version and for some reason I now have no sound on it at all. Help please.
