It needed to be restored, but it won’t restore, it says my subscription is expired. That’s a ripoff! ### 3/5 — Puzzles never work *2022-08-28, version 5.2* This app is ok. But every time you have to put together a puzzle, none of the pieces go on. It always says ‘try again’ even when we are putting the pieces in the correct spot. Super frustrating. ### 1/5 — Bad *2022-03-23, version 5.2* So far I really do not like it ### 2/5 — Not much fun *2022-03-03, version 5.2* You can do a little better in making it more fun for kids to learn . ### 1/5 — Only works on one device *2021-06-09, version 5.2* $20 is expensive to only work on one device. ### 1/5 — Terrible app *2021-05-16, version 5.2* Paid the 19.99 “upgrade” so I could unlock more than 2 states and the app doesn’t recognize the purchase even though my card was charged. ### 1/5 — Purchased full version, now asking me to buy again. *2021-02-26, version 5.2* I purchased this for my son. He was using the trial version on my phone and when I purchased it, the payment was taken but the app would not let me use the full version, until I contacted Apple. I bought an iPad for my son to use and now this app is telling me my subscription expired and I have to buy again. I did not pay for a subscription, I paid for the app. ### 3/5 — Fun but... *2021-01-10, version 5.2* It's fun no but ### 1/5 — Wish I would have known... *2020-09-24, version 5.2* I downloaded this app to help my 4th grader with geography. We were able to use the app to learn about TWO states, not FIFTY. Apparently after the first two states you have to pay $19.99 for a subscription (they claim this is discounted from the usual $29.99 fee). It’s disappointing because she enjoyed the game for the two minutes she was able to play it 😒 ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Puzzles don’t work *2026-01-02, version 5.2* When my son clicks on the different states and navigate through all the learnings, it provides him with a flag puzzle to complete. When he picks up a piece and places it over the correct spot, it tells him to try again. I even tried it and it didn’t work. This app is NOT worth $19.99. Fix the user experience because this is ridiculos ### 1/5 — Garbage *2025-10-03, version 5.2* I wanted an app to help my son study the 50 states. This app is glitchy and gimmicky. Not good for studying or learning. ### 1/5 — Unclear *2025-07-13, version 5.2* Payment seems unclear, I thought this was a free app. ### 1/5 — Worst app ever *2024-06-26, version 5.2* The game only lets you play two states and then you have to pay nineteen dollars for the rest Worst app ever ### 1/5 — This is terrible *2024-05-11, version 5.2* Guess what I downloaded it without even doing anything it made me pay terrible game don’t play it should be 0 stars ### 1/5 — Unable to restore purchase *2023-09-20, version 5.2* Honestly this is the best kids game I have seen. It has it all - coding, spelling, math, and small fun things like dress up and pet hygiene. Unfortunately I’ve had to RE-purchase the LIFETIME subscription 3 times so far. It seems every time the app updates I have to buy another lifetime subscription. Very frustrating. ### 1/5 — No Sound?? *2023-09-06, version 5.2* I literally JUST paid for this and the sound isn’t working. Help me fix it or give me my money back ASAP. Thanks ### 1/5 — Took my money *2022-11-20, version 5.2* Took my 20 dollars and everything is still locked!!!! How do I resolve this?? ### 1/5 — Took my money, but won’t let me into the full version. *2022-05-17, version 5.2* The app support button doesn’t work either. No way to contact seller. ### 1/5 — Won’t honor my purchase *2022-05-04, version 5.2* I purchased this on my iPad for my son and on the same apple account on the kids iPad it won’t install it says subscription expired. I paid $20 and it was supposed to be for a lifetime use. Very annoyed ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — 50 states *2024-07-10, version 5.2* Love this ### 5/5 — FIFIFKFKVKFIIVIVVIScam! *2024-01-27, version 5.2* I paid for it this morning and by this evening it’s telling me to subscribe or my subscription has expired. I thought i had found another educational game for my kids, so was very excited. Buyers beware ### 5/5 — Scam! *2023-12-05* I paid for it this morning and by this evening it’s telling me to subscribe or my subscription has expired. I thought i had found another educational game for my kids, so was very excited. Buyers beware ### 5/5 — I am so happy *2023-03-30, version 5.2* The bottom line is that if you’re going to get into ### 5/5 — 50 state capitals *2022-05-25, version 5.2* United states ### 5/5 — No sound *2022-05-20, version 5.2* Purchased the full version for my son and there’s no sound nor does the main screen pop up for me to change any settings ### 5/5 — Not what the previews show *2021-03-06, version 5.2* Should say that it charges you 2.99 for NOT all the states like it makes it look in the preview...very disappointed since it wants to charge $20 for all to be unlocked. But of course prolly a scam to make money off parents since you guys have another app that shows all the states for 2.99 which now my son wants since this doesn’t have all of them👎🏽 which I’m worried to spend more money to find out you get 2 states only for that price... ### 5/5 — States and capitals *2021-02-09, version 5.2* Making the state seals is the hardest ### 5/5 — States and capitals *2020-10-01, version 5.2* I love the game and my sister likes it and I am going to make lipgloss so I am texting you so you can see the lipglosses I make and maybe you can get some ### 5/5 — Surnomme *2020-07-16, version 5.2* Hmmm tet was --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
