The easiest way to screen

I love how easy this app makes the developmental screening process. It removes a lot of guesswork and worry that came with monitoring my first child’s milestones.

So useful!

So much useful content! My kid loves the play activities and it’s so much easier to check on her development than using those paper forms.

Awesome idea, but super buggy

I love all the resources and it looks fantastic, but I clicked on the assessment and now when I try to answer the questions, it comes up with an error message that literally doesn’t make sense for my response OR the question. And this glitch locked me out of the app— I can’t go back or access anything anymore.

Glitchy

The app was mostly working when I downloaded it. Now it closes when I try to get into the “play” section
