### 1/5 — App doesn’t work

*2018-10-20, version 1.1.0*

Never gets past first screen. iPhone X.

### 4/5 — Sound issue solved

*2018-08-16, version 1.1.0*

So, I don't know if this helps anyone else, but on the pbs website under FAQ Mobile, there is a section on what to do if the sound doesn't work.  The first suggestion is to make sure your phone isn't set to "mute" or for those who don't know where that is on the iPhone, the little button on top of the volume buttons should not be showing red.  I always have mute on, so I turned it off and my sound worked right away. Anyway, I think this app is great and downloaded it even though we have the pbs app because the one habitat available there was getting too easy since my four-year-old plays it so much.

### 1/5 — No Sound

*2018-07-28, version 1.1.0*

I have deleted and downloaded many times without success. Don’t waist your time and money on this. The sound just doesn’t work.

### 1/5 — Game freezes at startup.

*2017-12-21, version 1.0.0*

And please, devs, save us the copy/paste response. There’s no “details” needed. Your game freezes at the startup screen. The End. Bought this game thinking SURELY from the 1st complaint in Sep that this would be fixed in Dec. Nope.

**Developer response:** Hi there! Please be sure to provide the name and OS of your device which will help us troubleshoot. Without these details we will not be able to test the issue on our end. Thanks for your continued support of PBS KIDS!

### 1/5 — Doesn't work

*2017-11-22, version 1.0.0*

Same issue as everyone else. Doesn't open past the first screen. Waste of money!

**Developer response:** We're sorry to hear that your app keeps crashing.This is highly unusual. Any details that you can provide such as when the app crashes and the name and OS of your device will help us to troubleshoot.

### 1/5 — Waste of money

*2017-10-04, version 1.0.0*

Never got past the opening screen...

**Developer response:** We're sorry to hear that your app keeps crashing.This is highly unusual. Any details that you can provide such as when the app crashes and the name and OS of your device will help us to troubleshoot.

### 1/5 — Umm...

*2017-09-25, version 1.0.0*

Downloaded on my daughter's iPad. It freezes on the start screen. I deleted it and redownloaded it after a couple of days. It still won't start. That's $3 wasted.
