We have tried closing the app and restarting but it always happens in the same spot. ### 3/5 — 😬😬😬 *2026-08-17, version 5.3.23* Ok I love the game! Or... I did. So these games are fun and educational but recently almost all the show games are gone and the ones that are still there there isn’t very many games to play. If they come back I’ll play again, but until then I won’t be playing because all my favorite games are gone. Sooooo yeah bye🙂 ### 4/5 — The laggy game *2026-08-12, version 6.10.0* There was a laggy game on PBS called puppy quest on the odd squad. Can you please fix this issue in the next update? ### 5/5 — Waiting… *2026-08-03, version 6.10.0* LOVE IT it’s great, but some games are frozen or black ex: Hal’s big dig, Nature cat’s adventure, Sean’s rescue quest, splash dash, and jet’s rocketship creator. There’s probably more so plz inspect all of your games. but otherwise I love it 😍 ### 5/5 — BEST,!!!! *2026-08-02, version 6.10.0* The BEST THING EVER FOR ME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ### 5/5 — Now has download, download it offline *2026-08-02, version 6.10.0* Now that they have downloads, you can download games. After they downloaded, it went offline! You can view the offline games after completing downloading ### 1/5 — Do not recommend for households with young kids *2026-07-31, version 6.10.0* I do not recommend this app! My daughter has been playing this for a few weeks, but recently she has been learning some inappropriate language. I thought it was her friends or older kids who have been influencing this language. After she called my mother the B word, I told her that this language was unacceptable. She responded with a shocking truth which was that Daniel Tiger has been calling these derogatory terms. As a parent and guardian of multiple children I am very disappointed in this app after this incident. Do not attempt playing this game with your child or downloading it at all! ### 1/5 — Learn your audience *2026-07-31, version 6.10.0* Kids have old iPads and need offline play. This won’t even connect to my WiFi at home. Every other app works fine. ### 5/5 — Aaliyah *2026-07-29, version 6.10.0* 5-5 ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Bring back the games! *2026-08-27, version 6.11.0* When you removed the Design squad, Plum landing, and splash and bubbles games, I freaking cried myself to sleep! You are now making corporate games! You Think the unnecessary is necessary. I swear if you say “We ArE uNaBlE tO uP tHeSe GaMeS To SoME Of OuR NeWeR PrOdUcTs” you are just calling the shows I mentioned in the start, trash and too old to maintain! You need to bring back this games, instead of making excuses and think that the games you currently have are all kids want! ### 1/5 — Qwuety *2026-08-26, version 6.11.0* It is so bad I hate it ### 1/5 — Do not bother if you are over the age of two *2026-08-24, version 6.10.0* Now the shows can be entertainment basically any age some of those are fire, but the games are incredibly boring. A small selection are decent entertaining for a few minutes and that is it. Do not let the all ages entertainment of the shows for you. This is not for anyone over the age of like two or maybe five at most ### 1/5 — The update is ruined 😡 *2026-08-22, version 6.10.0* I play pbs kids my sister loves word girl she love the princess games and the update ruining it because it removed word girl now my sister is sad now bring word girl so my sister is happy 😡 ### 1/5 — This is bad. *2026-08-21, version 6.10.0* So when I go to the pbs kids app but when I try to play a game in the app it isn’t letting me play a game, terrible experience and update for that app, fix it because I’m not in the internet and I deleted safari and it isn’t letting me play.
