I still use Early Language regularly but needed the other ones back. I paid for Pronouns, Actions, and Describing AGAIN and still can’t access them. ### 3/5 — Won’t let me restore purchases *2026-02-20, version 5.4* Big bummer ### 5/5 — Brilliant app *2025-11-10, version 5.4* It great app for kids who don’t like to engage long. I m having problem is it not allowing me to buy and how to report that. ### 5/5 — Great App! *2025-06-20, version 5.4* Really helped my granddaughter :) ### 5/5 — This really helped! *2025-06-06, version 5.4* Thanks Splingo 😊 Our daughter was struggling in some areas of school when she started and this has definitely helped keep the usual mundane stuff much more fun! ### 5/5 — Great App *2025-06-06, version 5.4* Fun way to get kids to engage, the mini games make them want to play and learn! :) ### 5/5 — Love this! *2025-03-06, version 5.3* This gives me memories of my toddlerhood!!!👍👍👍 ### 1/5 — Overpriced *2024-01-31, version 5.3* I find it hard to grasp that not only do you have to pay for the app but then you constantly have to pay over and over again for the rest of the app. ### 1/5 — Limitations without spending extra money *2023-11-09* The app only has 2 learning categories available after purchase. To access more you need to keep spending. ### 3/5 — I like it but… *2023-10-04, version 5.3* I wish there were more ways to customize the games. The kids hyper fixated on the reaction of the alien to their answers making it difficult to know how much they are understanding and how much is just to get a reaction from the alien. Make it so we can turn that off please!! Love it outside of that. ## Frequently asked questions about Splingo ### What does Splingo do?
