Some children need more time to process before being given the answer. ### 5/5 — Wonderful program! *2013-02-05, version 2.0* My entire class LOVES this program! K-4 ### 5/5 — Great scanning and quick learning *2013-02-01, version 2.0* Good way for kids to practice scanning and improving speed. ### 5/5 — Love this app *2013-01-15, version 2.0* This app has helped my daughter so much with her spelling. I can turn her loose on it and she actually studies. ### 5/5 — Great app *2013-01-08, version 2.0* Lovely learning app. Beautiful pictures. Makes learning fun. ### 4/5 — Fun app *2013-01-02, version 2.0* Fun for the whole family. My girls love this game ### 5/5 — Great fun *2012-12-24, version 2.0* Good to play alone and together. One fun educational game app ### 5/5 — Great Fun! *2012-12-11, version 2.0* Clear, colorful photos. Great challenge with learning embedded. ### 4/5 — Little finders *2012-11-27, version 2.0* Our two year old adopted granddaughter only speaks Spanish.

Can’t get the sound going! ### 1/5 — Black Screen *2016-10-19, version 2.0* I downloaded this app because of the great reviews and usefulness, but there is only a black screen when I open this app. I'm not sure if its because this app is not supported on iPad pro or not. No reply from company when I emailed them about the issue. ### 1/5 — Big BKs Finest *2013-03-18, version 2.0* No iPhone 5 support ### 1/5 — Love the concept, but keeps crashing! *2012-01-13, version 1.0* I have played three times and each time the app has crashed. I love Alligator Apps and I think my kids are going to love this game - please, please fix the crash! UPDATE: Crash problem continues. Also, when playing in two player mode, twice the "target" tile appeared on one player's side of the board, but not on the other player's side. Please fix - my daughter and I really like the game. ### 2/5 — Music is annoying *2014-02-07, version 2.0* I'd like to turn the music off,but keep the voice to label pictures...please make this possible.... ### 3/5 — Good app *2012-04-23* As a teacher, I will give this 5 stars if the visual hint could be turned off and if there was a record keeping/email option for the app. It gives the kids a score, but there isn't any value to it for an educator. I can see it being a fantastic app for auditory processing. Thank you! ### 3/5 — Good for two little ones *2012-01-19* Not too shabby ### 4/5 — No bad ！ *2018-10-30, version 3.0* I like it. ### 4/5 — Yah *2017-06-13* I like it so much that I play it all the time ### 4/5 — Great except for 5 second response time *2015-12-30* Great app! Love the pictures & customizations. One suggestion to broaden the game's appeal: For any child or kid who cannot respond in about five seconds, this app would be very frustrating. I am thinking of a young child or a special needs child/kid who simply needs more processing time and cannot respond within the five seconds. Please consider adding an option to make the selection time longer, perhaps picking up to 10 seconds (5 default, change to 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 seconds.) A lot of games in the App Store would be much better for special needs kids if they were slower and did not expect a quick response. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — A-MA-ZING DARLING *2023-01-02* I L O V E this game!!
