I purchased the essential math bundle years ago, which includes counting town. The app will not let us do anything other than the free trial. There is zero way to contact Osmo because the support link on their website leads to a broken page. Save your money, it’s disappointing that a once amazing product is now just stealing money. ### 5/5 — Ghost *2023-04-06, version 4.0.0* The best ### 1/5 — Expensive *2022-12-05, version 1.3.5* £21 when we have already purchased the hardware needed is extortionate imo!! ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work *2021-02-03, version 1.1.2* Once we create a tent, it gets to the camera and freezes. Luckily my 4 year old took it well. What a waste of money ### 1/5 — Camera freezes every time! *2021-02-02, version 1.1.2* Glad we only tried the trial. Super frustrating that it won’t go past the tent and picture part at the beginning . Please solve the issue. ### 3/5 — Osmo Counting Town Freezes *2021-02-01, version 1.1.2* We’ve had problems from the start with this app. We were able to make the tent and bird then it would freeze. After deleting the app and reinstalling, we can’t get passed the tent without it freezing. Tech support didn’t help! ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work *2021-01-31, version 1.1.2* We can’t even get past making the tent. The camera counts down but doesn’t take a picture and the game freezes so we tried again five times until finally my daughter got frustrated and we found another game ### 1/5 — App Freezing *2021-01-31, version 1.1.2* My daughter was excited to try a new Osmo game. We are very disappointed to find that the app has such serious issues that it is useless. It’s unacceptable for a $25 app to be nonfunctional. Please update to resolve issue ASAP. ### 1/5 — Buggy *2021-01-31* Started a trail. Could not get past taking a photo of the tent (first task after starting) the app just hung and did not continue. Tried on multiple iPads ### 1/5 — Freezes! *2021-01-29, version 1.1.2* We have only tried the free trial and can’t get past the first game making the tent cause it freezes while taking the pictures ## Frequently asked questions about Osmo Counting Town ### What does Osmo Counting Town do?
