My two year old loves this app. He loves to look at all the dinosaurs and scroll through the train. I would love to have an option to hear to the dinosaur A to Z song as that is one of our favorites. The recent update fixed the noted issues with crashing.
Looking at the reviews, my problem seems to be common. There is nothing to say that this app is not compatible with first gen iPads. What gives?
Opened the app for my child, the PBS face pops up and a few seconds it crashes looking for answers?
I have the original iPad. I did not see any caution about not working on this model. I purchased the app and it won't open. Very frustrated.
Downloaded the app with no problems, hasn't crashed at all like other reviews have stated. My 3 year old loves dinosaurs and this app is excellent! He loves seeing the skeletons of them and feeding them and it has a lot of educational info! Highly recommend.
At first I had trouble getting the app to open. After restarting my iPad and redownloading it it works great! My son LOVES it!
With all positive reviews, I hate to be the negative person, but this app simply does not work. I realize that says it needs iOs 5 or newer.... we got that, the app successfully downloaded, ( which it should not if its incompatible with our system), and still does not launch. I can't even find out how to write to the app developer or ask for a refund. I hope this review gets your attention. Buyer beware !
My four year old, who loves dinosaurs, absolutely loves this app. It much more about dinosaurs than A to Z or trains. There are 26 dinosaurs that you can choose with the option to buy more. Only drawback is every time you go back to the train it resets to the A car. But the app is well worth the price if you have a dinosaur fan in the family. Here's hoping they keep adding on more dinosaurs.
