### 1/5 — Kein ton

*2021-09-16, version 1.2*

Kein ton schade

### 1/5 — Kein Ton

*2019-10-19, version 1.2*

Habe Heute das Spiel gekauft, aber Töne kommen nicht aus meinem iPad. Wie kann man ein Spiel spielen, welches man nicht hören kann?

### 2/5 — App funktioniert nicht mehr richtig

*2016-12-13, version 1.1*

nach Update sprechen Emil und co. nicht mehr, daher nur zwei Sterne

### 3/5 — Schön gemacht aber Touch Funktionalität buggy

*2015-12-16, version 1.1*

Die App ist thematisch gut umgesetzt, aber technisch recht unausgereift. Die Buchstaben lassen sich auf dem iPad kaum nachziehen (die Linie ist für den Finger zu filigran) und beim Pusteblumenspiel reagiert das System häufig gar nicht. Zumindest hier auf dem iPad2.

### 3/5 — Schöne App mit ärgerlichen Fehlern

*2015-11-24, version 1.1*

Das Positive zuerst, die App ist sehr schön kindgerecht gestaltet und pädagogisch aufbereitet. Schade, dass einige Kinderkrankheiten auftreten. Die Gegenstände lassen sich häufig nicht ins Krokodilmaul ziehen. Viel ärgerlicher ist jedoch das Nachziehen der vorgespurten Buchstaben. Zweifel bereits an meiner Schreibfähigkeit. Habe es als Erwachsener beim zehnten Versuch, den Buchstaben A nachzuspuren entnervt aufgegeben. Den Buchstaben M habe ich beim achten Mal geschafft. Ein Kind hat hier keine Chance. Wäre schön, wenn es ein Update geben würde. Dann würde ich sie gern weiterempfehlen!

### 5/5 — Sehr gute Kinderapp

*2014-02-13, version 1.0*

Derzeit das Lieblingsspiel von meinem Sohn ("obwohl es mit Deutsch zu tun hat"). Gute App für alle Kinder, die gerade mit Lesen und Schreiben anfangen (in der 1. Klasse oder auch schon früher).

### 2/5 — Kaum Inhalt

*2014-02-09, version 1.0*

Finger weg, kaum Inhalt! Drei EUR nochwas viel zu überzogen ...

### 1/5 — Enttäuscht !!

*2014-02-08, version 1.0*

App funktioniert nicht !!!
