First Words for Baby

Entirely too many ads! I understand ads but this is a children's game and ads pop up full screen as soon as my child hits start! The game is only pictures and sounds! Its 80% ads and 20% game! Not worth it! My child gets frustrated and cries because of the amount of interruptions from ads! It's a really mean thing to do to a child's game! Instead of buying the "no ads" version, I will be teaching my child to avoid the ads and press the "X" button!

I love the app. The pictures are very clear. And the sounds are great. It helps babies understand the words better. My kind suggestion is, to just use shaking motion while we touch the pictures instead of rotation, since the rotating motion causes confusion. For example, trucks do not make rotating motion, same as a duck or a cow.

(6/29/2019) This app has been wonderful up until the last update. I have paid to have the ads removed, but after the last update they have reappeared. I have restarted the app multiple times and the ads are still there. (Updated 7/1/19) The developer quickly updated the app to address the ad issue. Thank you.

I am a speech language pathologist who works with children. these are great realistic pictures and they move period past research I've read indicates children with autism do better if pictures are animated, where I would think people are just more interested in animation in general period it makes sounds and is interactive period also acts as a good switch toy and away for children who have difficulty with mobility they just touch and it makes a sound and or moves.

My daughter likes this app so I paid to have the ads removed as they are full screen ads which can be clicked on very easily. The ads are not baby friendly. Then there is the fact that the app automatically adjusts the volume when it is launched. It's way too loud.

I use this app with my now 11 month old grandson. He especially loves the sounds on the animals and vehicles and likes to see them flip upside down. It would be nice to have one section with basic body parts to teach, i.e. face, eyes, nose, mouth, ears, hand, fingers, tummy,feet, toes. Thank you for this fun learning tool for our children!

Too many pop ups, ads, very confusing on how to choose a section. Baby is 3 and can hardly figure out where to press and usually it's easy with other apps. Very dumb app. Rather just buy the book no poo ups and ads every 5 seconds if you get the book. Deleting asap

Children hold devices with both hands. Selecting items should work while the touch panel is simultaneously activeated by the hand holding the device. Currently, no selections can be made if the child"s other hand is activating any other part of the touch panel simultaneously. Does that make sense. My $.02.

Full of ads, my child gets very upset by the amount that pops up, gets fed up and closes this. Should be ashamed. The amount of effort put into cutting and pasting still rotating images through turning pages doesn't warrant this many ads, so other apps of higher caliber display way less and this is the comparison

This is the perfect app if you want your child to learn words, my only problem is the ADS! Its UNACCEPTABLE! When you press a word catagory it intstantly takes you to an ad, INTSTANTLY! Any child can press it not knowing the dangers of an unwanted website! So, if your looking for a GOOD first word app DO NOT install this one, if you dont whant your child on unwanted sites.

Nice app i've found so far. One thing I wish the app could offer is a video like presentation where kids were younger kids were able to just watch the whole thing as not very many toddlers are able to click next each time. But other than that, nothing to complain.

My kids enjoy the pictures and words but there is no button to exit the app and when my child uses this in kid's mode we have to restart the entire tablet to exit. The back button will not close it either. And the ads are a distraction that ruin everything else.

This app is incredibly loud. Once the app is opened, it opens at full volume regardless of what you have your volume at. I wish there was a way to set an appropriate volume for this app (especially as a parent) .

I just installed this app and there is no sound for my baby. I thought it was my phone so I tried other apps and music to see if I'll set any sound and it worked which makes the app this problem. Please fix or I'm uninstalling it. The app looks really nice but what's the point with no sound?

would be a good app but so many pop up ads that i deleted the app within 24hrs, my 2 year old cant even "flip" the page without another ad popping up and he doesnt understand how to get rid of them. very annoying and frustrating. dont recomend downloading at all!

I love the program very useful & stimulating, but im very mad at the commercials are unbearable!im trying to keep her focused,the commercial comes on,oh &half the time it's hard to get it off.please play the commercial in the being & at the end.remember your app is for babies!thanks.

Except for the ads (it's free, what do u expect) I love this app.....i wish there were more words, or there were levels, but as soon as my daughter started playing, she started picking up on words better, and she can almost say all the words on the app, she knows the different between a dog & a puppy, cat & kitten, etc.

Not baby friendly. I have another app that plays a slideshow automatically which is much better. This one you have to manually do it which my 1 year old can't do yet. I will just stick to the other app.

It would be 4 to 5 stars, but in Samsung kids mode, the home button of this app is treated like an ad and cannot be used. another words, once you go into a category ( example : pets ) you are stuck in that category permanently until you restart the tablet. :-(

If I could give this app a zero I would. The app has a very nice idea, but who puts ads on childrens apps!!!! Every 5 seconds my 2 yr old gets an ad that takes him out of the ap! This is ridiculous. Definitely deleting this app

My baby is in the 3 month range and she loves listening to the words and the colors keep her attention! Great Jon! Would recommend, I have good play pass so there are no ads

Poor play ability. Its not baby friendly and the adds cost money to get to go away, super sensitive so babies can buy things quickly. Always pops up an add over the app so the baby hears the sound but the add takes you to play store.

Good for small kids. Have exciting sounds of one picture per page . Minimal ada at bott makes it easy to use . A kid can play on its own as well for 15 minutes . A nice learning fun app !

Ads infested. Not even in a reasonably a rate. Especially who's targeted by the app. 2-4 years old who are trying to learn how to speak yet. How in the world those ads have an audience in this age? Who thought of this? I love the actually book by the app is useless.

Still a favorite for my two year old! I wish that the animation was a bit more realistic, but we've had this app as a favorite since we downloaded it almost a year ago!

The pictures don't link to what you press. E.g. press the dog and it loads up cat? That's just confusing your kid. Also so many pop up ads its distracting. Remove the popup ads, make the images load what they depict, and make the words simpler and this would be OK.

The app is great, but we're not American so I don't want to use it and would like to cancel subscription. However, apart from game mode, there is nowhere to click to cancel subscription. I use a Samsung Galaxy.

I understand needing ads in this app but with it being a kids app it would be nice if it was at least done in a way that they aren't going to be.accidentally pressing them all the time. Like not in the actual flash card portion? Would be five stars if they'd change that
