### 2/5 — Why did this happen you can only pop one at a time

*2022-06-08, version 1.4*

Both of these circles did not change size. Now I cannot make my own sound you like best. I hope you enjoyed. 😞

### 5/5 — Cute and fun!

*2016-05-27, version 1.3*

Simple, fun and delightful. A must-have for the little ones, without ads and in app purchases. It created loads of giggles!

### 3/5 — Could be better.

*2014-12-30, version 1.2*

My daughter loves playing with this app, but the sounds aren't the only key feature.  Playing with the sound OFF is often what I need for her.  The app does NOT respect the silent switch so I'm unable to easily give her the app in a quieter location. 

The first time I launched this app at Church I was mortified when the app screamed out at full volume "Sago Mini!!!"  I wasn't impressed. 

Sure, now that I know that the app is incompetent I can hold my hand tight against the speaker and crank the audio down.

Respecting the mute switch would be a much nicer feature.  I would even change my rating to 5 stars for that.

### 5/5 — Great fun; son loves it too

*2014-08-16, version 1.2*

The Saigo Mini games are always entertaining and this one is no exception. With lots of fun sounds and balls bouncing around my little guy really enjoys playing with it and it doesn't drive me crazy (bonus!)

### 5/5 — Awesome

*2014-04-01, version 1.2*

My 2 year old is so good with it. He says a dog says woof. And other sounds!!😊 I'm felling really good with it!!

### 1/5 — Kinda boring.

*2014-03-31, version 1.2*

It's simply great for little kids, but boring for teenagers, because they quickly lose interest in this game. It's got nothing to do but tapping the screen, dragging the balls and tilting your device to activate sounds from car horns to musical scales of a vibraharp, a piano, a flute, or wind chimes. What a waste of money! Toca Boca is better than Sago Mini!

### 5/5 — Perfect!

*2014-03-13, version 1.2*

My little guy has been using this app and loves it very much. He is 7mo now and still living it.

### 5/5 — Sound Box by Sago Mini

*2014-03-11, version 1.2*

My grandchildren and other young relatives love it. They and even some grown ups are fascinated by it.

### 5/5 — Entertaining!

*2014-02-22, version 1.2*

This is so cool! Such a smart app. The balls after being created, will roll around the screen as you tilt it, and make all kinds of fun sounds! My 2 year old daughter loves this! I even will take a turn and see what part of the screen makes what sound. Oh, and no pop ups! A must have when looking for young kid apps!

### 5/5 — Awesome

*2014-02-10, version 1.2*

My son loves this app..he can play for about ten to fifteen minutes and it helps me to entertain him. It's great hand eye coordination. Awesome.
