### 1/5 — Got this to homeschool

*2022-08-20, version 1.0*

Got this as a fun way homeschooling my kids about animals and it doesn’t work. Flashes very fast. Super disappointed

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2022-01-17, version 1.0*

Doesn’t work!  Good book but bad app.  Will never buy again.

### 5/5 — Great plus I know how to fix the glitch

The spinning glitch is annoying but just reset ur phone and then it’s fixed 😮 also it TELLS you how to fix in description 😑

### 1/5 — Crap

*2021-08-13, version 1.0*

Screen just flashes

### 1/5 — Screen Flashes iOS 14

*2021-06-26, version 1.0*

Terrible screen flashing when using with my son. I’m on iOS 14 and the screen flashing is incredibly intense and nauseating.

### 1/5 — Disappointed

*2021-04-24, version 1.0*

My son is disappointed. Won’t buy again

### 1/5 — Very sad with this app

*2021-02-11, version 1.0*

Not very good. It keeps flashing. When we first got it, it was fine. Now its just flashing. 

   Also, the app overall is fine, its just the flashing

### 2/5 — Not working in iOS 14

*2021-01-02, version 1.0*

This was working great when I bought the book last year, but after I upgraded to iOS 14, I found the image is keeping flashing after I entered the app! It’s so disappointing that my son cannot play this anymore.

### 1/5 — Huge bugs in these apps!

*2020-11-14, version 1.0*

Received the books and VR viewer as a gift and can’t even use it. I can download the app and scan the QR code to calibrate the viewer. One of two things happen. 1.  Hitting the arrow to go back (exit viewer calibration) the app completely shuts down, therefore you can’t access the VR camera mode. 2. If I reach the the VR camera mode, the visuals are completely scattered and chaotic! Great idea in theory but very poor UX execution. Disappointed.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2020-10-17, version 1.0*

Just quickly flashes images over and over. Enough to give you a migraine or a seizure.
