### 5/5 — Got overly complicated...

*2020-01-18*

This app used to be nice when it came out some yrs ago, it had an appealing straight forward intuitive feel to it. For some reason tho someone has changed the way it feels, into a clunky overly complex interface. Hence this version is difficult to set age ranges for younger children, lots of silly multiple choice options, and has just become very unappealing
