But there are no instructions on the games ### 4/5 — Bonne *2026-07-24, version 31.4.12* Très bonne apprentissage ### 3/5 — Study cat *2026-07-23, version 31.4.12* Good ### 4/5 — Crunchylife *2026-06-30, version 31.4.7* Love it! But there are no instructions on the games ### 4/5 — Pretty good *2026-06-09, version 31.4.6* Need more entertainment ### 3/5 — No support, especially from Apple (UPDATED REVIEW) *2026-05-30, version 31.4.6* UPDATE: Studycat was able to reimburse me, so they were extremely helpful and quick to respond. Apple still has to get its act together. I can’t give more than 3 stars, because we still do not know how effective it is as a supplemental aid in learning French. I can update again after we try it for a longer period of time. —————————————— Hate to do this, but after emailing StudyCat because I did not want to do a full year subscription, never got an email like Amazon or Spotify saying “your free trial is about to end”, and being told I had to request a refund through Apple, they make it impossible to talk to a real person. I went through the Apple link to make a request on day 7 (charged the morning of the 7th day, when I should’ve truly been charged the afternoon, since I signed up for study cat the afternoon of the first day) , and it doesn’t show up as eligible to request. No email, no phone number to contact someone. I was going to look into signing up for a month to see how/if my kids learned well with the supplemental app, but now I don’t even want to try it! ### 5/5 — Childhood *2026-05-06, version 31.4.5* I used it when I was a baby until I was a kid ### 5/5 — Fun *2026-05-01, version 31.4.5* Relaxing ### 5/5 — for kids *2026-04-26* they enjoy the games. **Developer response:** We are so happy to hear that your little ones are enjoying the games! Making learning feel like playtime is exactly what we aim for. Bon apprentissage! -The Studycat Team ### 4/5 — C?p *2026-04-26, version 31.4.5* Happy ne me ### 5/5 — Super good game *2026-03-01, version 31.3.0* You should try this game. It’s a super good game with no ads. ### 3/5 — Great at word level, I would appreciate more holistic approach *2025-12-22, version 30.8.7* I like this app so far, great for learning French for a 5 year old I like that it’s not too overwhelming, very friendly design It’s French only- no translation- I find it a plus! I don’t know French at all, and everything is very understandable- but I always ask my 5 year old what is she doing and she always can explain to me Love games when game records your voice and then you do the tasks voiced by yourself - so cute ( and my 5 year old was embarrassed at first - the fact no one like their voice when it’s recorded - and she said the same- but it’s great for building confidence and enjoying the voice then, now she is so confident in using her voice and changing it to different shades) Still I have some concerns I don’t think it has enough content unfortunately. It’s our first month and she is one quarter through it ( it shows the line of progress)- she spends not more that an hour a day( broken to 15-20 minutes throughout a day), and I am enjoying it as a great alternative to other screen time. I am not sure she will have something left to do in 3 months time.. if I’m right the price is not reasonable at all- but we are not at that poin yet - so time will show. Another concern is everything is only at 1 WORD level. No phrases, no sentences - no task other than 1 word. Kids will know a bit of words from each topic but not be able to use them in speech. And another concern is stories - there are so few of them ( and that’s where my previous concern can be solved, it would be great that they are added to each vocabulary section to practice - listen and then have comprehension tasks, and maybe again repeat and record some phrases and sentences). The ones that you have a good - they are short, dialogues, very understandable. But there are so few of them, and it would be great to have more vocabulary stories and social-emotional stories. That’s some reasoning about 3 stars- but we only started - I think I will have something to share later. ### 5/5 — Beautiful app *2025-11-29* Really loved this app. It is perfect for visual learners. It’s really effortless to learn a new language with this. Please can you make one for Japanese and Korean too? Thank you 🙏 **Developer response:** Thank you for the wonderful feedback. We are always looking for ways to grow, we hope to bring more adventures to our learners in the future, so stay tuned! -Studycat Team ### 5/5 — Muito bom *2025-11-25* Meu filho tem 3 anos e já está aprendendo várias palavras no idioma por meio de jogos e diversão. Ainda tem pequenas histórias em vídeo para fixar o conteúdo, com cenas tranquilas e de baixo estímulo visual. Pelo menos assim a tela é aproveitada de maneira útil. Achei caro, mas pensei que vale o investimento. **Developer response:** Obrigado pelo feedback tão gentil. Boas aprendizagens! ### 2/5 — Excellent Learning App *2025-11-14, version 30.8.4* I only speak/read a bit of French with my daughter at home and this app has been a lovely compliment to our learning. Playing the games has consolidated her vocabulary and many of the games she can play independently despite only being 2.5yrs when we first got the app. I do assist her with some of the trickier elements e.g. spelling, writing and the jigsaw puzzles but all the others she can figure out and play on her own, so well designed! It’s the only iPad game I let her play for now and she absolutely loves it! We would love to read more Studycat stories or play more games that will help with forming full sentences. I have in mind some kind of interactive story with activities where you use the vocab you’ve learned to help Studycat on an adventure? A musical element would also be fantastic e.g. Studycat and friends singing "comptines" or other, potentially original, learning songs. So fun for young kids and great for learning! Thank you/Merci Studycat and team! ### 2/5 — They changed it *2025-10-30, version 30.6.3* It was great until we suddenly went on the app today and they made it so you can only play about 5 games out of about 50 games and the rest you have to pay for. Would have been nice for some notice. ### 5/5 — Amazing! *2025-10-29, version 30.6.3* I never pay for apps but this one I have. My 4yo is learning so fast and it’s not overstimulating. Love it! “Parfait!” ### 5/5 — Great resource. Alphabet should be optional *2025-10-28, version 30.6.3* This was recommended to me as a great resource for a 4 year old to start learning French, and it really is. My son loves it, but all the alphabet and writing games are starting to make him lose interest. These games should be optional to younger kids. Also, even though the app is wonderful, a child won’t be fluent just by using it, so we should be able to see which words they have been learning so we can practice them and share with their instructors. Overall, this is probably the best resource out there to help kids learn French! ### 5/5 — TO GOOD *2025-09-26, version 30.6.2* My child wants to be on it 24/7 thank you so much ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Free trial not free *2026-02-22, version 31.3.0* They offered a free trial to use Studycat and as soon as I accepted it, I was billed. Just a warning to everyone out there. ### 1/5 — Ripoff *2025-09-25, version 30.6.1* some kind of temu nock off of Duolingo or something ### 1/5 — Good but can’t get on the browser, only on App or Google Play *2025-03-11, version 29.9.0* Can do on a browser? ### 1/5 — Rip Off *2025-02-17, version 28.4.14* Typical trickery of signing up for a free trial but making you opt out or they charge you even if you’ve never used the app. ### 1/5 — I don’t have any more pictures 😡🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬 *2024-12-23, version 28.4.14* 1 Yyyyy ### 1/5 — Got charged ..customer service never replied *2024-06-23, version 28.4.9* I got the app to try it, my card was charged automatically for 60$ which is high for an app. I emailed customer service right away trying to cancel and they never got back to me. I wanted to stop the charge or switch for another plan. So far bad experience. ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work… *2024-06-02, version 28.4.8* Have this app on Android and it works fine. Doesn’t ever successfully load on this iPad Mini 4 running iPadOS 15.8.2 ### 1/5 — Ripp-off *2023-12-27, version 28.3.1* Trial version was good, so I paid for a 1 year subscription $73.99. My 5 year old only had 6 months of use before she got locked out. The app request for another 1 year payment. Total rip-off. ### 1/5 — 非常差的一款应用，当订阅了免费试用一个星期，但是根本就不能免费试用，老是不停的跳转到让你订阅的画面，让你不停地订阅 *2023-04-03* 我在别家还没遇到过这种问题 **Developer response:** 得知您感到失望，我们深感遗憾。 请发送电子邮件至 help@studycat.com 与我们进行更详细的讨论？ 此回复是自动翻译的，我们希望它是可以理解的。 ### 1/5 — 有料版が使えない *2022-02-24* 有料版を購入してすぐ使えなくなりました。 サポートセンターに連絡してもなんの解決もない。お金返して欲しい **Developer response:** この問題が発生しているとのことで、ご不便をおかけしております。 help@studycat.comまでメールでお問い合わせいただければ、これを解決するために最善を尽くします。 私たちはあなたに返信するために翻訳ツールを使用しました、それが理解できることを願っています。 ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — オススメ！ *2026-07-30* 9歳と4歳の姪っ子楽しくやっています♪ **Developer response:** ★5の素晴らしいレビューをありがとうございます！😸 9歳と4歳の姪っ子さんたちが一緒にお楽しみいただけているようで、とても嬉しいです！これからもお子さまたちが楽しく学べる体験をお届けしてまいります。 楽しく学べますように！ -The Studycat Team ### 5/5 — Great app but wish it had writing as well on the side-if it is a bird then it should show spelling *2026-07-26, version 31.4.12* Just wish there was spelling next to the word then I would Have definitely subscribed ### 5/5 — Prima! *2026-07-19* Meiner Tochter (6) hat es sehr geholfen einen Einstieg in die französische Sprache zu bekommen. Parallel dazu habe ich angefangen außerhalb der Wohnung Französisch zu sprechen. Natürlich nur wenn es passt und wenn sie es will. Sie hat so spielend einen Wortschatz aufgebaut. Begonnen haben wir am 30.11.2026 mittlerweile kann ich in vielen (regelmäßig wiederholenden) Situationen, in einfachem Französisch sprechen. Sie antworten inzwischen öfters auf Französisch mit 1-3 Wort Sätzen. Man darf keine wider Erwarten, aber ich bereue keinen Cent. **Developer response:** Vielen Dank für diese wunderbare 5-Sterne-Bewertung! 🥰 Es ist einfach fantastisch zu hören, wie tolle Fortschritte Ihre 6-jährige Tochter beim Französischlernen macht! Dass sie nach so kurzer Zeit schon einfache Wort-Sätze auf Französisch antwortet und Sie sie im Alltag so toll unterstützen, begeistert uns sehr. Weiterhin viel Freude beim gemeinsamen Lernen! -The Studycat Team ### 5/5 — Incredible *2026-07-18, version 31.4.7* My 3.5 year is learning French and this has single-handedly been the most effective resource we’ve used. Merci Studycat! ### 5/5 — Holy moley! *2026-07-15, version 31.4.12* We absolutely love Studycat! My daughter started using it when she had just turned two, and now at 2½ years old she’s able to work through it surprisingly well. It’s been amazing to watch how much she’s learned in such a short time. One of my favorite parts is that it’s not just teaching her through games—it has helped her learn her alphabet and even begin writing her letters. The lessons are engaging, age-appropriate, and keep her excited to learn without feeling overwhelmed. If you’re looking for a fun, educational app for a young toddler, I highly recommend giving Studycat a try. It’s been a wonderful addition to our homeschool routine! ### 5/5 — So fun *2026-06-30, version 31.4.7* My mom and bro know French but I don’t know it but I learning very fast on here thanks to Studycat and his helpers ### 5/5 — Great App *2026-06-11, version 31.4.7* Fun and thorough French practice for beginner kids! My kids love it! ### 5/5 — Gentil Chat *2026-06-09, version 31.4.6* I’m learning with my Grandson he thinks it cool that I’m using the app. He keeps checking my progress to stay ahead of me. ### 5/5 — Learning a new! *2026-05-25, version 31.4.6* Amazing way to stay on track for goals to learn ### 5/5 — I don’t like it i love it *2026-05-10, version 31.4.5* Same thing!!!!!!
