Not happy

This app is very limited and it lacks options. There seems to only be one game and no ability to control the level of difficulty. Definitely a waste of a dollar in my opinion.

Response from developer

Hello Jxn Parent Review, this app has four modes; Play, Save, Learn, & Quiz. The game/play mode isn't the main focus of this app as I'm guessing you thought it would be unfortunately. The main focus of this app is to help kids learn identifications, values and counting of coins. I'm sorry that you weren't happy with the app. Thankfully a lot of people have enjoyed it and it's even been used in classrooms too. However, I do know nothing pleases everyone. If you'd like I can easily give you a refund. Simply contact me through my website and I would gladly give your dollar back. Take care!

Very little information

The coins are too small to see on iPhone6. Only has one game to collect coin and in game coins are too small to tell the difference. Info on coin is insufficient. Not recommend.

Response from developer

Hello, sorry that you didn't enjoy the app. The iPhone 6 was one of the devices it was tested on, and results didn't yield any problems with coin visibility, but I do understand that could vary depending on the user. Also, this app is aimed at specific levels of coin knowledge, so it could be that its too simple or introductory for you. Again, sorry that the app wasn't satisfactory for you. Have a great day Hey there, have you had the chance of playing the app on an iPad or phone with a bigger screen? Also the app has since been updated with more questions on the coins and coin amounts.
