### 1/5 — Bad app

*2024-03-23, version 3.1.0*

I thought you get the entire song for free but it turns out, you only get one verse of the song for free and they make you pay to get the rest. Besides, the only free thing you get is the animal quiz and the rest of the games make you pay after one level. Parents, please skip this app. I would recommend the free app by Duck Duck Moose or the paid app by LoeschWare which contain no ads or in-app purchases.

### 2/5 — Bad app
