### 2/5 — Sound stopped working

*2014-07-06*

My daughter, 17 months, loved this app. Until the sound no longer works.

**Developer response:** Hello. We're sorry about the problem with the sound. We've now fixed the problem. Many thanks.

### 2/5 — My toddler loves this

*2013-09-17*

Nice graphics and sounds with good interactivity. My 18 mth old has learnt quite a few words from this. We have not experienced the bugs other reviewers mentioned.

### 3/5 — Difficulty with peekaboo

*2013-06-13*

Hi I'm not sure if there are some bugs needed to fix, but my app continues to freeze and it won't allow me to scroll up between sea creatures

**Developer response:** Hello. We've now solved all performance problems. Many thanks.

### 3/5 — Cute but slow

### 1/5 — Can’t get a refund. Absolute garbage

*2023-01-05*

Too big for iPad screen. How can you keep selling this? AVOIDLIKE THE PLAGUE!

### 1/5 — Doesn’t draw properly

*2020-11-19*

On iPad the screen doesn’t draw properly, so you can’t return to the home page by pressing top left button. To change animal I had to quit the app and restart. Really poor

### 1/5 — Miss

*2016-10-18*

No sound- very disappointed little boy

**Developer response:** Hello - we're sorry you had a problem with the sound. We've now resolved the issue. Many thanks.

### 1/5 — No sound!

*2015-01-15*

Very disappointed to have paid for this and there to be no sound!! You are charging people for this app yet you haven't fixed the problem? Where is the integrity?

**Developer response:** Hello. We're sorry about the problem with the sound. We've now fixed the problem. Many thanks.

### 1/5 — App doesn't work

*2014-04-13*

The app will no longer work. App won't move to the next animal after touching the sky. It stays on the same page no matter which one is up when you start the app.  My son used to love this app too.

**Developer response:** Hello. We've now solved this problem with an update. Many thanks.

### 1/5 — Was great

*2014-03-07*

I used to use this in speech therapy all the time, now you can't change animals without exiting and restarting the program every time.  Boo!

**Developer response:** Hello. We've solved the performance problems. Many thanks for your comments.

### 1/5 — Bugs in paid version

*2014-01-11*

Can only view one animal at a time after update

**Developer response:** Hello. We've now solved this problem with an update. Many thanks.

### 1/5 — Peekaboo Ocean HD

*2013-01-27*

Warning.  This app would not open for me.  Enjoyed the free version with grandson.  Should have stayed with that.
Rate it minus in stars.

**Developer response:** Hello. We're sorry about the problem with the app not opening - this has now been resolved. Many thanks.

### 1/5 — Won't open-

*2011-02-12*

Want my money back-got the opening page and then it fades to black-what a rip off!

Update-it worked for awhile.  It's a beautiful app-but got stuck on the submarine.  A friend said to delete it and re-install.  I did that, but now it's back to opening the first page and fading to black.  Again, I want my money back!

**Developer response:** Hello. We're sorry about this problem. We've updated the app and all is now working fine. Many thanks.

### 1/5 — Peekaboo Review

*2010-12-19*

My son only got to play with it once. The app would not load up again. I cleared the cache and space. Nothing. Hopefully someone can help.

**Developer response:** Hello. We're sorry about this problem. The app has been updated and is now working perfectly. Many thanks.

### 5/5 — Lovely

*2020-05-01*

Perfect for my daughter of 2. Cute graphics. Fun interactivity.

### 5/5 — Adorable

*2014-02-09*

My baby sister loves all the peekaboo apps. She never played this one until i got it and she loves it!!!!

### 5/5 — Captivating for baby & toddler

*2012-01-11*

I musthave downloaded at least 50 free apps for my baby (who is now a toddler of 15 months) to play with and this is by far tye favourite.  He likes to see how each picture reacts as he touches the individual elements.  He gets very annoyed when the telly doesn't do the same!  The only small issue with it is that he often touches the wrong part when the object is hiding in the waves and so it skips to load the next one instead of the hiding object in the waves.  This can get very annoying when it happens multiple times in a row.  I have to wrestle it off him to move it onto the next scene properly.  Apart from that its a really well thought through app!

### 5/5 — Fantastic app

*2011-08-08*

This is a great app.  My child has special needs and it has expanded his understanding of where to touch the screen to make something happen.  The graphics are clear, their animations interesting and the sounds appealing.  The mermaid one is a little slow to react as it says something first, but the others are really fast to react, so it gives great feedback.  Thanks for an excellent app and I look forward to seeing more like it.

### 5/5 — Brilliant

*2010-12-16*

Nice to see an app aimed at younger children.

My 18 month old loves it. The funny sounds. Bright colours. I now have a very grubby iPad! 

Buy it. You won't regret it.

### 5/5 — Charming little app...

*2010-12-16*

... with sweet & simple illustrations and a lovely concept. Perfect for pre-schoolers.

### 4/5 — Perfect for my 2 year old.

*2011-04-21*

I just down loaded this and my two year old loves it.  I hope more sea creatures are added with maybe a little more interaction.  At 99 cents it is a cute app.

### 3/5 — WHEN ARE YOU GOING TO FIX THE SOUND??!!!!??!?!!!!

*2014-11-07*

Enchanting graphics and interactivity...great potential...but no excuse for not addressing the sound issued that were noted in a review posted months ago. Get it together, guys. If you're going to charge for this app, you'd better fix your customer service and development issues.

**Developer response:** Hello. We're sorry about the problem with the sound. We've now fixed the problem. Many thanks.

### 3/5 — Goes forever

*2014-05-10*

I like the app but would prefer that it finished after all of the animals have been seen.

### 3/5 — Fun, but not quite as good as the others

*2014-03-12*

This one works differently than the other games in this series. You have to press the arrow at the top right to move to the next animal. This is hard for the intended target audience to understand (my 18 month child). I think the animals are cuteand do some cute little moves, such neighing seahorses, crabs scurrying, and sharks zooming.
