## Most critical reviews (6 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Limited, expensive upgrade

*2018-02-14, version 1.4*

There are only 4 free levels which took my 7 year old daughter less than 5 minutes to complete. I’m guessing it would take her about 30 minutes to complete the next 26 levels and the upgrade costs $8.99. I would consider the upgrade if it was $.99 or offered a couple hundred levels for the $8.99. Not a good value!

### 2/5 — Okay, but could be better

*2019-08-14, version 1.5*

My 7 year old likes the app, but It won’t save her stars for the levels after 4. It’s very frustrating because our goal is for 3 stars on each level and now we have to just remember what level she’s on and how many stars she got. Please fix this! I feel like we paid for nothing!

### 2/5 — Good in theory

*2016-07-20, version 1.3*

I am a 20 year veteran special education teacher that found this at a reading seminar. It looks great and isn't decked out with too many "whistles and bells". However, the stories are incomplete. The read aloud goes further than the actual viewed passage, but both end without a complete story. Disappointing. Enough so that it makes me hesitant to upgrade to the paid version.

### 3/5 — Great app

*2018-06-20, version 1.4*

Great app but I wish the upgrade was cheaper or that more levels were offered for $8.99.

### 3/5 — Okay

*2017-06-10, version 1.4*

I really like this app and it helps with my reading skills but there are only 30 levels and when I got to the end I didn't know what to do and I don't know what to do with my coins either

### 5/5 — Wonderful!

*2017-02-13*

When my son came home with a notice saying that he needed extra assistance with his reading, I turned to Happy Frog and they recommended this as a good starting point.  It's been fabulous!  Within one sitting, I saw an improvement with his reading, confidence, and speed.  It was also engaging - he kept on wanting to work with the level until he got the top score.  I had to force him to put it down until tomorrow!
