My toddler LOVES this, but very glitchy

My toddler absolutely loves this beautifully designed and simple “Montessori” style game. I honestly think it’s more in line with the Montessori philosophy of simplicity than even the Montessori branded games out there.

Unfortunately this particular game is super buggy and there isn’t a way to refresh to screen or save his place. I still love it - I just hope they can fix the bugs.

I even just tried nuking the app only to have it have a bug again within a couple minutes. The only way to get unstuck is to pick a new game or kill the app and restart.

Please, please, please fix this app and keep making amazing educational games!!!

Glitches

Update to developer:
Why don’t you play your own app and update it. This is obvious that your app has had bugs for at least 5 years now per the reviews and you have blatantly refused to even attempt to fix the bugs, but it seems your response to everyone is “email us, we will fix it.” If you have already been emailed about the bugs, why haven’t you fixed them? We have all paid for this app since there is no option to try it for free. This only hurts the kids that can’t continue because a block/piece won’t move and we as parents have to restart them from the beginning.

Son loves the game but consistently glitches where objects won’t move so he can’t continue and he gets frustrated and I have to restart the game for him. There have been no updates for 5 years so it seems the creators don’t care since this seems to be a consistent issue over the last few years according to the reviews. At this point I wish I didn’t have to pay for the app to try it so i would have know of the issues beforehand

Great app but glitches

My four year old loves this app! The music is very peaceful and she loves matches shapes, colors and even shades of colors. The only problem is that every time she gets about ten minutes in, the app glitches and a shape won’t move and there’s nothing we can do but close the app and start over. It always bums her out to have to quit and start over.
