Starfall ABCs App Reviews

Wish I had read the reviews before buying :( My girls love the website but this is not worth $3, should be free!

My kids are older and like the more advanced activities. This app is only good for two year olds learning their alphabet. Website is much better, was very disappointed with app.

We love the website. I thought this app would add more learning options but instead I bought this limited version of what I can get for free on the website. This is not worth $3 and I hope there is a free update in the future which adds more options than what this app has to offer. I do feel like I have been misled.

My coworkers and I use this program regularly with high needs with great results!

My 3 year old daughter loves it. I also installed snowman and gingerbread apps, they are great too, fun and educational. Very happy with the purchase

Great app!!! My son knows some of his letters and sounds bc of this app.... Great bright colours and very educational!!!

I would say that when it comes to buying apps Im actually pretty laid back with what I expect from them. This app has me rethinking that. I am very disappointed with this app and would greatly appreciate getting my money back, although I do understand it doesnt work that way. With not a single free app on our iPad I cross my fingers and hope that we buy apps that are worthwhile . . . $250 later and weve encountered our very first purchase that weve regretted. Truly.

My 4 year old loves Starfall on the computer so I was very excited to find this app when we bought an iPad! It is a big hit and more user friendly for her on my iPad then it was on the computer..

I almost didnt buy this app because of all the negative reviews, but i did and i am happy that i followed my gut instead of the reviews. I bought this app for my 2.5 year old and she loves it. We use the starfall site and this app is exactly the same as the ABC section on he site only better since its more user friendly for my tot. It is important to note that the ABC app is better suited for 2-3year olds (maybe 4), any older then you should consider the reading app. Also its important to note that this app is not the entire starfall app just he ABC section (I think its pretty clear from the name but looking at the reviews I think it should be stated again just to be clear). If you acknowledge these 2 points i think you will be happy with your purchase.

2.99 and nothing like the starfall website. What a waste of money.

My 14 month old loves and can fully use this app. It would be 5 stars if it werent so glitchy - lots of crashes and sometimes it wont rotate around, or changes rotation when you restart it which makes it an issue if you are using a stand. Otherwise, very awesome.

There are better apps than this one. Not very interactive.

I dont understand all the complaints. It states clearly that this is the ABC portion of the site only. Maybe people should read the details carefully before purchasing an app. instead of complaining afterwards. As far as the app. being boring, maybe people just dont understand how it works ? There are a lot of little games and songs, you just have to touch the screen wherever you see the little white "stars" appearing. They appear on the green arrow at the bottom of the screen and also on the letters themselves. Almost every letter has a little game or song at the end. It is a very interactive app. and my kids love it. They love the Starfall site too, which is why I decided to purchase this app. It is much easier for them to play the little games on the iPad. All they have to do is touch the screen. This is the most expensive app. Ive purchased up until now, but my kids love it so much that I consider the cost worth it. We used to go on the Starfall site daily, but then we had a new baby and our laptop started malfunctioning, so we havent been on in a while and they have missed it. They were so excited when they saw this app. and so was I. It will be so fun to get our Starfall time in daily again. :)

This is the best educational ap I have found yet. A teacher had it for her students. ;)

We have an autistic 3 year old grandson who is ALWAYS playing this game. It is a winner!

If you have used the Internet version this will let you down. Its only a first level version.

My son is crazy about this one. Get it if you want your child learn english.

This is absolutely the best app. My 2-year-old loves it and has learned so much from it while playing. Best of all, we like it, too. It doesnt get annoying. There are so many diverse activities and songs it never gets old. Whoever made this put a lot of love and effort into it and they not only understand kids well, but they are considerate to parents. Best toddler app, hands down.

I LOVED this app. It was 5 stars for me. My toddler was learning his ABCs, and his letter sounds. He was singing the alphabet song in the car, and doing the motions to go along with the letters. I recently downloaded the update because the app was "freezing". Now, on the right side there are three new icons (not shown in the picture of the first screen) that link to samples of other paid StarFall apps. Now my toddler goes to those activities first. They are not as interactive and he has lost the letters and sounds he knows. I wish there was a way to go back and download the old version. I am sad about this change, but my little guy would be even sadder if I delete the app, so I guess we will deal with it.

The new advertisements make the app unplayable for my 15 month old, she cannot escape the ads after clicking on them.
