## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Won't work

*2015-12-13*

Crashes every single time I try to open it. Wish I could get a refund.

### 1/5 — Does not work

*2015-11-12*

I am unable to use this app as it crashes every time I try to open it.  Do not purchase.

### 2/5 — Rip off

*2016-10-08*

Great tool, but way too expensive. They charge $2 for every few words.

### 2/5 — Poor Options

*2016-01-14*

You get far more with free apps than with what I paid for with this one. What you do get is decent but not worth paying for.

### 2/5 — In app purchases

*2014-01-29, version 3.4*

The basic app only includes a relatively small number of words - 30 animal names, 1 vehicle and 1 colour word. The other 21 vehicles and 25 shapes/colours have to be purchased as two separate in app purchases.
The speakers voice is very clear.
The game play is very simple.

### 5/5 — *****

*2017-10-10, version 5.0*

Great app my daughter has learnt loads from this xx

### 5/5 — Well used app

*2017-01-18*

I may have bought this when I was a new grandmother... so I don't see the $2 charges.  I do know that it has gotten two plus years of good wear for my English speaking granddaughter.   At 3 1/2, she just left the house and once again, I had to close this app.  That's what it's about, right?

### 5/5 — Worth the $

*2013-11-02*

My 20 month old loves this game! It's definitely a great for her to learn spanish other than us speaking it to her!!

### 5/5 — Excelente

*2013-02-19*

### 5/5 — Good app for first Spanish words

*2013-02-01*

This is great app to help my kids to learn early Spanish words. It's good enough to keep my kids busy.

## Most praised reviews (5 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — Glad to see a Spanish version

*2013-02-01*

I featured the English version of this app on my blog last week because I was so pleased by the sharp graphics quality of the app, along with settings for educators to customize. High five on the privacy policy too - happy to see more developers describing how their app works upfront in the description.

### 5/5 — Amazing

### 5/5 — Great app

*2012-06-21*

Awesome app! My daughter loves it just wish there where more words. I like the settings and how you can change how much assistance your child gets. The graphics and sounds are great.

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2011-09-28*

The phonics and the speaker's voice in this app are simply amazing, worth every cent. It would be great if more words were added.
