Peekaboo Barn App Reviews

Highly recommended

Simply brilliant!!!

Not enough...

First lets say the app is ok, it just seems to be enough to get by, it needs more animals, it needs a back to the home screen button when your playing it, our daughter likes to swap between 3 languages, and this would help. I was hoping for more, but it doesnt seen to deliver, Ill give you more stars when I see more animals

Fantastic in its simplicity

My 2 & 3 year olds love it and play it over and over until the battery runs out. Best part - "piiiiiiiiiiig!" Would love updates to add more animals or an editor for my kids to record their own voices for the animal names.

Brilliant

My 14 month old girl loves this app. She always finds my phone and brings it to me so that I will start the app for her. After I press start she shakes with excitment and pokes the screen until the barn door opens. She then stares at the images for 3 to 10 seconds and touches the screen for more. The person who developed this app is in tune with their inner child. Please write more apps. My mother who didnt even email before, finally saw the beauty of tech when she saw how thrilled her granddaugther was with peekaboo barn. Now mom wants an iphone.

My Child Loves It!

My 14 month old daughter loves this app! She cant get enough of it. What would be cool is if there were more animals... and that there was the option to loop (in other words never ending) instead of it ending at night time. I have to restart the app frequently for her. Other than that, it is spectacular!

A good start

Both my boys (aged 1 and 2) like this game. It is cute. It doesnt hold their attention for very long though, as it is very repetitive and there is no variation in the animals (other than the order they appear). My suggestions for the game is: -Add more animals with updates -have a couple different animations and audio samples for each animal. My 2 year old gets frustrated by the cute voice because it mispronounces words. It is very cute to hear him correcting the game consantly ("not Roosta - Rooster!") but he ultimately gets frustrated and randomly selecting from a couple different audio wouldnt hurt. -be able to open the barn door by swiping sideways (like photos) as well as tapping. The sideways swipe was my 2 yr olds first instinct and he tried it many times, and it could work well in addition to how it works now. Mostly minor stuff - the bottom line is that youll get a couple mins max of entertainment out of this one. That may or may not be worth it for you.

Its good except for the kids voiced

My son loves this game, but the only thing I really dont like is the kids voices that mispronounce the animals. Donkey sounds like duckey and rooster sounds like roosta. If that was fixed Id give it five stars, but until then it only gets three, because its confusing for kids that are learning to say words correctly.

Amazing

My 14 month old niece LOVES this app!! Hours and hours of entertainment. Was well worth the upgrade (more for my own sanity than her entertainment!) My only upgrade suggestion would be the addition of French! She is being taught both languages and this upgrade would be fantastic for her.

Needs more..

Cute, but the entertainment value runs out quickly (like the first 5 minutes). It needs something more - maybe a guessing game, or something else that would help to keep a child interested. As it is now, once you have seen all of the animals nothing else happens to keep your interest.

Updated: Great stuff

UPDATE: THe app developers are great and listened to their customers. A++ Prounciation issue was fixed + more animals! Best it works on iphone & ipad!! Thank you guys keep up the good work. ----------old review-------- Needs more work, I agree with most of reviewers: 1) pronounciation needs to be fixed, so children pick up the right sounds. 2) this game is short lived. Need twice the animals.

Love this app!

I downloaded the Lite version when the little one was fussy and I wanted to distract him while travelling. After a few days, I bought the full app. Its been six months, theyve added three more animals. He still gets excited to play it and is still very interested. He now even says duck and cat when he plays. Hes been playing it since hes been 4 months old. Its that easy to use. Highly recommend :)

Fixed. Thanks

My son loves this app on the iPad and iPhone.

Awesome

My son, now 2, has been playing this since he was 10 months old and just loves it. It has gone from a simple distraction that was simple enough for him to work himself to a learning toy. Ill be getting the other versions too.

Love the language support!!

I love how they went about the language support- I was able to record the words and names for animals that I want my little clients to know, in the language they speak. Its a very simple game, but its perfect for keeping little ones busy while waiting for the doctor/ in line, and it supports fine motor control without being to difficult! Gonna check out other apps by this developer for sure!

My 8 month son loves this app

Since I showed it to him it intrigued him. He knows now to click on the barn so the animal appears. Only that sometimes he does it too fast and the name of the animal doesnt come out. Love the x-mas theme!

Junk

Doesnt load... Crashes every time I start the app. Complete waste of money.

Dont like the new splash screen

Ill start by saying, my daughter loves all the peekaboo apps and at the tender age of 18 months, was recognizing and naming the animals. These apps are great! My only complaint - the new splash screen. Adding 3 seconds and an unfamiliar screen during start-up has thrown my daughter. She thinks she has the wrong app and shuts it down. I know it sounds silly, but is this new screen and startup routine really necessary???

Love it

Out 14 month old loves this app--keeps her happy!

Great app, when it doesnt freeze!

My daughter (now 3) loved this app and now she tries to play it for her little brother. I would rate it 5 stars but it keeps freezing on my ipad (iOS6) please fix it!

Not worth it

My 2yr old sin grew tired of this app very very quickly. There is not much to it but clicking on a barn and trying to figure out what animal is inside by the sound. When you click on the barn you see the animal and a child tells you the animal. A few words the child pronounces the words very poorly. All in all, I wasnt impressed at all. Safe your money!
