### 1/5 — What happened after iOS 13 update?

*2019-10-27, version 2.0*

Ever since the iOS 13 update, your app crashes when opened.I have used this app for several years and it has been fabulous. HOWEVER, since the iOS 13 update, now the app CRASHES when you open it. If this is not fixed, our school will not buy this app for students anymore. Also, my students and parents feel ripped off since I made them purchase it for Biology classes.

### 5/5 — Ed. Consultant

*2016-11-19, version 1.16*

SO impressive! Well thought out app! Thank you!

### 5/5 — Marvelous Content Creator

*2014-12-18, version 1.12*

This app combines the best elements of creation and innovation. It is a brilliant concept and the best use of app smashing that I have seen so far in the apps store. The integration of several cloud platforms is another area where this app rise above others. The way it allows resources to be brought together from several platforms into one place is another bonus because it maximizes the options for content creation. This is their first version, so I imagine it is only going to get better over time. I look forward to seeing where Tony Vincent's imagination take us.

### 5/5 — Fantastic App for All Content

*2014-12-17, version 1.12*

My students (1st & 2nd grade) appreciate the improvements of each new update. The puzzles are easy to create and the app is versatile enough to work with all content areas. It is so easy to use my students have created puzzles themselves and then swapped to solve. I like finding new ideas via Twitter and Pinterest.

### 5/5 — Great app for all ages

*2014-12-16, version 1.12*

Love using this app for education. I have used it with 6th and 7th graders. We use it for quick checks of understanding, for taking quizzes, and have students create their own puzzles to share with others. Limitless possibilities!

### 5/5 — Excellent!

*2014-12-16, version 1.12*

The versatility and efficiency of this app make it a powerful tool to have in your classroom.

### 5/5 — Be creative with it at any level!

*2014-12-16, version 1.12*

My favorite thing about this app is how you can make it your own. You get to be the creative genius behind your own learning. Make your puzzles really simple or as complex as you want. Every puzzle I make I end up finding a  new and different way to teach. My puzzles become very different from each other and I end up educating myself along the way. Sharing puzzles is great and making puzzles using my own graphics and ideas is terrific. What a great tool for any age any level!

### 5/5 — A Core App for Teaching and Learning

*2014-12-16, version 1.12*

Stick Around is one of our Core Apps for our #ipadacademy.  Students love to create Stick Around Puzzles over curriculum topics, share them via Google Drive, and play one another’s creations as a review.  Stick Around allows for creativity and collaboration which are key to taking learning to deeper levels.

### 5/5 — My favorite App

*2014-12-16, version 1.12*

I've been a follower of Tony Vincent for some time and I love creation apps for learning. Stick Around is that app. It incorporates puzzle creation, Explain Everything and Pic Collage all in one. But it doesn't stop there. I love using Stick Around for mind mapping, blue prints and more. Especially with my students who love using this App. It is one of the best Apps for 2014 going into 2015.

### 5/5 — Still nothing like it

*2014-12-10, version 1.12*

Students love using this app! It has helped so many kids learn and practice content. A 5th grader asked me why he would play his own puzzle after creating it because he knew all the answers. I told him that’s exactly the point! The process of making a puzzle is where the learning happens. 

And thanks to MorrisCooke for keeping Stick Around updated and squashing bugs!
