### 5/5 — Fun

*2023-09-02, version 1.4.7*

It’s so fun and cute👍👍

### 5/5 — Read the directions folks

*2023-07-15, version 1.4.7*

It seems like a lot of the people don’t understand this app, because they haven’t read the instructions or directions. You MUST print out the grocery items that include the bar code on them. For example, a box of chips. This app won’t scan something you have at home like a cereal box. After you print out all of the grocery items that zebra shopper has provided you, each individual item will scan. Go to, littlezebrashopper.com to read the instructions. It’s great for kids of all ages and works on an iPhone and iPad. I wish there was a way to send a receipt, a better “register” with allowed my son to delete an item, a total button that was easier to understand and the ability to add your own barcodes or print barcodes that could then be taped on items with a given price.

### 5/5 — It’s great but one problem

*2020-08-26, version 1.4.7*

This app is also for my uncles brothers daughters! They like to bother us but role playing makes them stay calm.But there is a problem. The problem is that the camera can’t switch into the back camera and the app can’t turn like if I turn my iPad, it won’t turn the way I want it to be. But this is an awesome app!

### 5/5 — ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

*2019-08-07, version 1.4.7*

I will rate this 6 out of 5 stars if I could. It is amazing and not a math game, but very fun! This deserves better than 3.8 stars! 
If you are looking for a grocery game, this is the way to go!
It needs a little bit of change but, it is a great game!!!

### 5/5 — LOVE THIS APP!

*2019-07-23, version 1.4.7*

I recommend this app to everyone who wants to pretend to shop. I’ve seen bad reviews where they complain there is no total or the opportunity to enter in the amount paid, but there is!  After entering each item you touch the green button labeled with a check mark.  When you’re done, just touch the green button a second time, then enter the amount the customer gives you and it will give you the change due on the receipt, which you can see on the iPad.  5 stars!  I love it so much I am giving an iPad to my great nieces just so they have this app!  They love pretend play in their little kitchenette.  I’ve played pretend shopping with my 10 year old granddaughter and she loves it too!

### 5/5 — So real
