### 1/5 — Don’t waste your money

*2018-06-13*

Can’t enter kids names. It looks like you can from the preview. Emailed developer and have heard nothing. I expected more from Kagan branding.

### 4/5 — Great but...

*2018-02-18*

This is better for my class then the spinners. I started with the spinner app. I have had many awkward, repetitive team selections using the spinners. This awkwardness can be programmed not to happen with this app. I teach secondary and my students fist pumped and shouted ”yes!” when I announced that we will not have repeats! The spinners made a more playful atmosphere, whereas these selectors have a formal vibe.  

Downside of this app is the programs do not save.  The sounds could be more intense. The colors could be customized.  An analog face would be welcomed.  Also adding an a / b / c / d would be a great addition.  Additionally, the app’s poor graphics on the iPad are noticeable by secondary students.

### 1/5 — Nokia POS lookin jawn

*2017-04-05*

App has the graphics equivalent to snake on the Nokia brick phone.. And none of the fun. Doesn't even randomly select teams like it says.

### 2/5 — Missing some features

*2014-02-18*

I use Kagan Cooperative Learning Structures so I thought this app would be perfect. I specifically wanted the team AND student selector feature to replace my spinner. Unfortunately, I don't think I'll use the app now that I've purchased and tried it. To me, the display seems backwards (shows the student selection first, then the team selection). This seems odd for structures I use a lot, like Numbered Heads Together. Also, the noise is awful and not customizable. If these issues were resolved, this app would be a daily part of my classroom.

### 2/5 — Ouch

*2013-07-23*

The sound effects need to be improved to something that is easier on the ears

### 4/5 — Good but needs to be a tiny bit better

*2011-09-23*

With this app you can pick both the team and the team member with the push of one button (exactly what the Kagan Selector Spinners app needs) to reduce the instructional time used to operate the selector and to keep the flow of the lesson and classroom going. To that end, the app would be perfect if it saved the last student size and team numbers used. Also sound options would be nice but not necessary for practical use. 

I find the Kagan iPhone apps very useful. I also have the selector tools program for my PC. But sometimes its easier just to zoom in on my iPhone with the overhead projector, and the app is helpful to walk around the classroom and use. Also, this app somewhat one-ups the Selector Tools program because this app has the ability to select students and teams simultaneously WITH NO REPEATS. Very useful when performing a team
Activity and you want to give each table a turn. Very nice.

### 3/5 — Similar in function to selector spinners

*2011-05-31*

Great idea to move Kagan's spinners to mobile devices! However, I don't really see the need to purchase both this one & the spinner app (prefer that one). Also, the selector sound is high pitched & can get old quickly. I'd like to see options for sounds.
