### 2/5 — 不怎么样

*2022-05-03*

不好玩，不怎么样。

### 2/5 — ???

*2020-03-08*

I think this should be more like your coral reef game... I can barely play this.

**Developer response:** Hi! Thank you for your feedback! We'd love to hear more about what you would like to see in Plants. Please email us at support@tinybop.com. Thanks!

### 4/5 — 그러나 이런, 있는?

*2020-01-14, version 1.2.1*

하지만 아직 실감이 난다 이런 상황에서 벌어진 일이다 이렇게 생각하실 것 같다 등의 반응을 보였다 사진. 그러나 그는 마치 인생을 살며 그런 적이 없다 이렇게 이야기를 하면서 너무 욕심을 봐.

그러나 이런 짬뽕 무대가 펼쳐졌다 날 너무 주변을 의식하지 않고 있는 것으로 나타났다 사라진다 있다 이런 생각이 들었다 내렸다 하는 동작을 할 것이다 이렇게 확신을 가지고 있다 .

### 2/5 — Limited content for four years

*2018-05-03, version 1.2.1*

This app has a “four year” age suggestion but at that stage, BLOCK CAPITALS are not useful. Took me a while to see Alpha Alpha is the only plant to SEE growing- needs simple explanations and appropriate font.

### 2/5 — Please add spoke audio when tapped

*2018-04-24*

I bought the first bundle based on Apple’s nice feature of their apps. I agree with the other reviewers, not intuitive enough for kids. Even if intended for use with parents, spoken responses labeling things is crucial for kids still learning to read. I do appreciate the sophistication level but their is a way to make the base level interactions more fun/responsive as well.

Also, I’m so sick of apps having a big link on the homepage to buy more of their apps. Apparently developers have no idea how often kids get stuck trying to buy new apps and not knowing what to do. Even worse after buying 10 of their apps the ads for all the apps I bought link to the App Store rather than the app I already bought.

As a designer I give the app design a B+, the app icon design maybe the weakest link.

**Developer response:** We're sorry to hear that you're disappointed. I have shared your concerns and requests with the rest of the team! If you'd like, you can record sounds in the app. To record sounds, hold your finger in place anywhere on the screen within the app. Once you see a red recording symbol appear, you may begin to record sounds. To finish your recording, simply lift your finger. To listen to your recordings, simply tap the spot that you tapped to make your recording, then tap the play button. If you have any additional feedback, please feel free to email us at hi@tinybop.com. Thanks!

### 4/5 — 我不能换一款APP？无法发送信息？

*2018-04-06*

我购买了植物，但是我不是很喜欢里面的内容，但是又看见开发者的用心尽力！所以我想方便一点换一款游戏，我想玩太阳系这款游戏！我觉得它的内容应该不会差的！假如开发者愿意可以赐我一款银河系这款APP！谢谢

### 2/5 — Good idea

*2016-09-22*

It's a good idea and I like the concept, but for an app geared towards kids "5 and under" it's disappointing the plant and tree names can't be spoken/read to the child. My 4 year old certainly can't read these big words. It's a little confusing also to navigate and figure out what exactly you're doing. Hope it gets better, I do like the concept!

**Developer response:** Thanks for the feedback! We're always listening. We design our apps with the hope that parents and kids will play together — so that children can explore and discover lots on their own but ask parents questions when they have them. Did you see our free handbook (in the dashboard or parent's section of your app) with interaction tips and more information? If not, you may find it helpful: http://tinybop.com/handbooks#plants

### 3/5 — 구매목록 삭제 부탁드립니다.  좋은데 쓸일이 없네요.

좋은데 쓸일이 없네요.

### 3/5 — Not my favorite but still very good

*2016-01-17, version 1.1.9*

This is not my favorite tiny bop app, nonetheless it is quite detailed and well developed. I think that if your kid is interested in plants, nature, weather, etc I think you might like it, but my 5 y/o prefers the more technical apps over this one.

### 5/5 — Great app for kids

*2016-01-09*

It teaches kids to care for plants , my kids love it they have so much fun with it, I recommend it to everyone to check it out

### 3/5 — Least favorite of the tiny bop apps

*2015-11-29, version 1.1.8*

I am a huge fan of all tiny bob has to offer. This is my least favorite app because I feel they missed an opportunity to teach about photosynthesis and plant life cycles.

### 5/5 — Great game

*2015-11-03, version 1.1.7*

Love the Lightning!

### 2/5 — Not my favorite of their apps.

*2015-10-06, version 1.1.6*

After purchasing The Body app I figured we could try this one. Not nearly as interesting, and not as much fun.

### 2/5 — Schöne idee

*2015-09-29*

Aber etwas wenig was man machen kann.

### 1/5 — 打开就闪退

*2024-03-30*

打开就闪退

### 1/5 — 5 minutes max of gameplay

*2022-06-17, version 1.2.4*

I’m pretty upset to have spent money on this. There is next to nothing to do. I was expecting much more out of Tinybop as we have Everything Machine and the entertainment and exploration is endless. 
It also moves at an incredibly ponderous speed. So slow that I’m not sure anything will ever happen.  Will it? 
Only about 3 clickable information panels per screen, and 3 screens? Either it’s moving too slowly, UI is not intuitive enough, or there is actually nothing to do. 
Sorry for the scathing review, guys, but this app was a total waste of my money.

### 1/5 — 恶心广告

*2018-08-14*

硬不起来怎么办？收费12块竟然还有广告！小朋友玩的做这种广告真没底线

**Developer response:** Thank you for the feed­back. Our apps cost mon­ey be­cause we are a small com­pa­ny, do not have any third par­ty ads, or re­quire any in app pur­chas­es to keep play­ing. That said, your re­sponse has been not­ed. Please email sup­port@tiny­bop.­com with any ad­di­tion­al feed­back. Thanks!

### 1/5 — Никчемная игра. Пустышка

*2018-07-01*

Даже нет инструкции, гвайда и прочего. Просто три локации три семечка и скудное описание по растениям. Выкинутые деньги на ветер. Кстате в игре можно водить пальцем по экрану, типа ты ветер).

**Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback. Our apps were designed using a discovery based approach. For a more guided interaction, please check out our handbook: https://tinybop.com/assets/handbooks/plants/Tinybop-EL2-Plants-Handbook-RU.pdf

### 1/5 — モバイルデータ通信

*2015-10-10*

モバイルデータ通信の設定をオフにしていても、勝手にオンになるのところが不愉快です。
アプリは面白く、子供が楽しく遊んでいます。

### 1/5 — 老是退出

*2015-09-29*

玩不了

### 1/5 — This app does very little

*2015-09-29, version 1.1.5*

This app is not worth your money. It comes without explanation and does so very little that it is barely worth four minutes of anyone's time.  I would be ashamed to show this to my kids as they would be instantly bored and get nothing from it.

### 1/5 — Не открывается! Верните деньги!

*2015-09-23*

Купил игру для сына, а она не открывается! Айпэд эйр. Снес. Установил опять. Все так же не открывается!!! Верните деньги!!!

### 1/5 — Bland

*2015-05-24, version 1.1.4*

I regret buying five of their apps all at one time without trying one out first. First off they're so poorly laid out that you need a "manual" (best part about kids apps is they can explore and figure them out with little to no instruction. Not with these. These come with an instruction manual.) but even after reading the manual they make no sense. They are of little to no interest to children and even I can't find enough interaction in them to  be any less than bored. I'm hoping to see updates in the future that make these more enjoyable.

### 1/5 — Waste of money

*2015-05-09, version 1.1.3*

You can't interact with the plants at all

*2023-03-07*

Nice app

### 5/5 — Great educational app

Beautiful and smart

### 5/5 — PLEASE ADD MORE FEATURES

*2020-04-29*

**Developer response:** Hi! Thank you for these awesome suggestions! We will definitely keep them in mind when making future updates to the app. Please email us at support@tinybop.com with any other ideas. Thanks!

### 5/5 — Они лучшие.

*2017-11-14*

Tinybop крутали. Прорабатывают каждую свою игру до совершенства.

### 5/5 — Love it

*2017-03-22*

Gorgeous, meditative app shows kids different biomes, flora and fauna and how seasons change. Very unique app- not sure I've seen anything quite like it. Recommend!!

**Developer response:** Thank you so much! 🙌

### 5/5 — Great app

*2016-08-11, version 1.1.9*

I love how excited my niece get with this app. There are so many animals to interact with and you really get to learn a lot.

### 5/5 — Great for teaching

*2016-06-17*

Plants is great! Much is made of its free-exploration setup, and I've introduced a lot of my young cousins to it. They figure it out pretty much instantly. I'm an ecologist, and I also regularly use the app during educational presentations.

I'm a big fan of this app, and I'm looking forward to future biome additions (especially the mangroves)!

### 5/5 — Tolles Spiel

*2016-04-16*

All die Pflanzen sind sehr schön und es macht spaß es zu spielen. Das einzige was ich nicht so gut finde ist, dass es im Handbuch 4 verschiedene Biotopen gibt und es bei mir nur 3 sind.... Ansonsten super Grafik und toll gestaltet

### 5/5 — A very unique app

*2016-02-03*

Our favorite part is planting acorns and watching them grow through the seasons. I highly recommend it for anyone with a childlike curiosity.
