### 3/5 — Great, but have to reinstall

*2021-02-12, version 2.6.9*

The app is excellent for children but I have to reinstall it on iPad.

### 3/5 — Sound does not work on IPad

*2020-04-20, version 2.6.9*

Hi developers please fix the issue on iPad app the sound doesn’t work where as on iPhone app the sound works.
Thanks

### 2/5 — App needs vast improvement

*2019-09-20, version 2.6.9*

Skoolbo is brilliant, but the app needs a lot of improvement. It takes 10 minutes to load and then crashes frequently, so we have to use the browser which isn’t as safe as the app.

### 3/5 — Very educational

*2019-01-03, version 2.6.9*

Love this game it helped my son love maths, it competes with other pupils in his class and other schools, it was free registered through school but know they charge for it and when you have several children I don’t think that’s fair. Shame as it has helped such a lot with confidence in the subject

### 4/5 — Great helps to learn

*2018-11-01, version 2.6.9*

I really like this Skoolbo it’s kid friendly fun and  it has learning.But their is a problem I notice it’s the volume it
 sometimes cuts off and I don’t like how that happens. So please fix it thanks for reading!👋👋👏👏 🙃

### 1/5 — So many issues

*2018-06-28, version 2.6.9*

You have to log in with your email address and password every time you open app. No sound. Cuts out half way through an activity.

### 1/5 — SHAMEFUL in app purchases

*2018-04-21, version 2.6.9*

we were told by the school to log in to use the app as a homework activity, but from home we can't access games without purchasing a "family membership". Also, a subscription is needed to access certain other games. It is using the school classroom to market product to children. Shameful.

### 2/5 — Preferred the old Skoolbo

*2018-03-10, version 2.6.8*

The old version was so much better. A lot more game based and interactive. My students don’t like listening to the stories and skip over them. Please consider changing back.

### 1/5 — Bring back the old version

*2018-02-20, version 2.6.5*

My kids have to do this for school as part of homework & it's terrible, we've stopped using it & so have most of their school friends. Old version was way better!

### 1/5 — Aqui23

*2017-12-14, version 2.6.1*

This used to be a fantastic game, lots of challenges, fun, exciting. Now the updated version is boring, really bad teaching videos that don't teach, so boring to watch. Bring back the old skoolbo this ones really bad, I hear a lot of parents complaining how bad it is now. Why change it, was such a good learning app before :(

### 1/5 — One star

*2017-11-06, version 2.5.9*

I think you should go back with one Skoolbo for one country because this Skoolbo is really childish, glitchy and annoying.  I don’t like that there is no leader board and I liked when you could by stuff.  I also don’t like hoe you’re always a superhero.  Also can you please fix the art activities they won’t work.  So in my opinion you should go back to one Skoolbo per country.

Yours Sincerely

Matthew Lane

### 1/5 — Liked the previous version better

*2017-10-24, version 2.5.8*

Since the app was updated, my students don’t want to play it anymore.... Why change something that was working so well?....

### 1/5 — Disappointed in false advertising

*2023-09-29, version 2.6.9*

I was one of the original installers who were offered a lifetime membership. My download and reviews made the game appear popular. The developers then canceled our lifetime memberships and told us to pay per year. Disappointing as if us original people didn’t download, it wouldn’t have been able to advertise as this many schools and people were using. We got used for good reviews and then scammed. Nothing short of false advertising in my opinion

### 1/5 — Prefer the old skoolbo

*2020-08-26, version 2.6.9*

Honestly, Skoolbo is very Glitchy, Childish and annoying. When I started skoolbo, it started glitching very hard. I’m very disappointed and I prefer the old skoolbo because it was very fun and entertaining but you just made Skoolbo more worse. Please fix the glitches they are very disturbing. I hate the new Skoolbo. The people who like the new one, they are very mistaken.

### 1/5 — Couldn’t get in at all....

*2020-08-15, version 2.6.9*

The worst thing is I just couldn’t see how great the game is. I couldn’t even get in at all! My dad bought it for me and i deleted this app and downloaded it again. It still didn’t work. Please fix this!!!!

### 1/5 — Not loading

*2020-06-06, version 2.6.9*

Ipad app not loading at all

### 1/5 — Useless

*2020-04-07, version 2.6.9*

Absolute waste of money can’t even open up first screen after login says there are no active students in. I’m sorry but in these times and for the price and been offered through the school I expect a lot more. Fix or money back please

### 1/5 — No rounding +question error PLZ READ THIS AND FIX THE QUESTION

*2020-03-30, version 2.6.9*

I just started Skoolbo today and I noticed that the first question is an issue I definitely answered the question right!!this really annoys me since I think that there is going to be another error soon.

I think rounding would be a great addition to the math activity’s

### 1/5 — God awful. Remove from AppStore

*2020-01-10, version 2.6.9*

Are you serious, this is terrible. Educational games do not belong on the AppStore. first of all it crashes so much. My brother was playing against his teacher and he was so happy UNTIL RANDOMLY THE GAME CRASHES! So than he was a mess. Dam you and your pity company. I hope you go broke.

### 1/5 — Careful - takes your money without warning

*2019-01-03, version 2.6.9*

Tried out the paid product but it was overcomplicated. Gave up and found something else to use. Then, without warning, was slugged with an auto renewal fee a year later when we had not used the product for most of the year. 
They have refused a pro rata refund, and said that because I unsubscribed from emails (did not want spam from a product I have no use for) I could not receive my reminder. Apparently the penalty for not accepting spam is random charges from them.
Will not be going near this company again.

### 1/5 — What happened to lifetime membership

*2018-12-30, version 2.6.9*

When this was an unknown app they offered lifetime membership now memberships are cancelled.
Last time I checked I was still alive

### 1/5 — Old Skoolbo Was Much More Engaging

*2018-10-16, version 2.6.9*

Before the new update Skoolbo was actually fun! It would make me press on it because I actually knew it was going to be fun and get to do whatever I want instead of the daily activities! You also had to work a lot to be a superhero, and once you became one it felt so awarding not boring because you’re always one and it’s normal.
