Curious George: Zoo Animals App Reviews

Happy but unhappy

My nephew loves this app. I first had it on my iPad and wanted it on my phone also. It is one of the apps u can not transfer over yourself. So I have now paid for it twice. Dont get me wrong its a great app for him but I wish I did not have to pay for it two times.

Great except for the other part of Zoo

My 2 year old loves it BUT the bad thing is I paid for the second Zoo and it doesnt even work! Want my money back for that one if it wont work but cant find a way to get it back.

Not user friendly.

My 4yr old likes this games but he had a hard time playing it. I even have a hard time with it. When you choose the animal youd like to work with we can seem to figure out what to hit to take us to the game portion for that animal ...we can get to video, stickers, pictures, but not the game. Seems like it should be easier considering its a preschool game.

Deceitful

They really outta disclose that you have to pay a buck for each game after you paid the initial purchase price. Really sheisty. False advertising. I just deleted it and kissed my $.99 goodbye before more damage was done.

Big BKs Finest

Why no iPhone 5 support?

mom

i bought this app for both iphone and ipad. My first purchase was two years ago. my three year old loves it.. the imbedded videos, the games, the sticker album..he is a big fan. so, i purchased all of the in-apps as well. Three of them. Old McDonalds farm, Big Freeze and the Outback. However, after the first update, the in-apps no longer launched. got a message that if I already purchased them, to click here to restore. they dont restore. ive removed the apps from my devices and uploaded them again. i removed them from my device and BOUGHT both apps again, as well as the in-apps again. That was a crazy move but I was desperate to recover them because my son loved the other "themes" so much. After downloaded them for a second time, they wouldnt launch again after the very first synch. I had a difficult time trying to reach customer support, but just found an email address and sent my complaint. i will report back on how it goes.

Does not restore previous purchase

Looks like Im not the only one who is having trouble restoring this app. Purchased the app and in-app purchases around 6 mos ago. Son loves it but whats the point if I have to pay $ every time I download it.

Huge app

Couldnt download because it was too big to fit on my iPhone. Too bad. George is a favorite.

Bad app- bad customer service!

Can I give an app a negative rating? Where do I start? After purchasing add on features (Farm, Outback, Deep Freeze) after a few months it wouldnt allow access to those areas anymore. I contacted Customer Support at Houghton Mifflin who advised that I should delete the app, power cycle the phone and re-install the app. Upon doing this, I found that they wanted to charge me to install the app again!! What??! They also claim that there was never a 20 second black screen at the end of the pig video. Uh, yes there was. I cant verify it now since the app still doesnt work.

Volume doesnt work

I love this app but the volume goes from high to so low you cant hear anything! Fix it so it can be a 5 star!!!

In app purchase is broken

Don’t waste your money purchasing the other areas. They won’t load. Otherwise, the game is kind of a waste of time. The rules are very specific about how you have to wash the animals in a certain order. The videos are cute, but that’s about the only good thing.

Broken.

My daughter enjoyed this game, so I tried to add the update - the new parts of the game are frozen and wont load.

Save your $Money

My kids live it, but you only get one part of it for the price. Not at all what expected, let down. Very little to play with unless you buy more parts of it.

Very educational.

Very educational and fun. Worth the investment, my child has learned very much and loves the app!

In-app purchases will not load

Its very frustrating when you love an app so buy to unlock more features and it continues to load... Never allowing you to play in the purchased region. I want my $1 back.

In-app purchases dont load

Like many others, I bought the extra zoos. They showed up some of the time, but now they all require reloading and it always freezes. When it was working, my son loved this game. However, I would no longer recommend purchasing.

Disappointed

The first time I opened this app it worked fine. Since then, the scenes to pick from (only one of which is free) are blank. The animals you need to wake and wash, mostly black screen with just a few things showing up. My 4yo and 2yo try to play, but get so frustrated when nothing works. We are very disappointed in this app.

Cant download purchased areas!!

I already paid and downloaded all the the areas previously. My phone decided to reset itself one day. I had have most of them restored except the last area. Help?

Honestly no stars!

Im beyond mad!!! I bought all the extra areas but they wont load. My nephew wants to play the other areas so bad but they just continue to "load". Maybe if you fix this little problem you might get a few more stars. Im gonna try to get my money back though in the meantime!

Black scenes, very frustrating

My daughter loves this app, but quite often all the animal washing scenes and the pages for different areas are just blank or black (cannot see animal, but other things sponge, etc. are there.) She gets very frustrated with it. Today she washed an animal she couldnt even see, its ridiculous.
