I uninstalled and tried it again same issue. No clue how to fix it when there is no error report to troubleshoot with. ### 3/5 — Huge file! *2020-03-30, version 1.9.7* Why the hell does this app need 1.7 GB? No other apps I have come close to a 10th of that! ### 2/5 — Good idea, but buggy (no pun intended) *2019-08-19, version 1.9.6* The buttons on the activity board games are non responsive. So despite my son selecting the correct letter nothing happens. He enjoyed the story games how but the racing and snowboarding were just frustrating. I know he’s hitting the buttons correctly because I started trying it too. Please fix this, otherwise it seems like it could be very a very helpful app. **Developer response:** Thank you very much for your feedback. We have made many updates and optimizations to the program in our latest release, version 1.9.7, and hope that you and your son find it easier to use. The game modules you mention are enabled for gyroscopic responses as well as tap interface. He may find those controls easier to use as well. ### 1/5 — Many problems *2018-03-27, version 1.9.2* I bought this App and it seemed to download but won’t allow me to login.

I only hope that all the games and activities available online are added into the app. Thank You! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
