Decent, but a couple issues First off, the variety of games is pretty good. It covers recognizing the alphabet, the sounds the letters make, the alphabet, and the motions needed to draw the letters. These are all things I want my kids to get assistance with from this app, and it does that well with assistance from their favorite super why characters I really like that the app doesn't have advertisements (horrible for kids due to them getting tricked, bad websites etc.). I expect no ads from a paid app anyway, so that isn't all that special. Now some issues/complaints: - the first time you run the app it spends a lot of time downloading additional content. It took about 3x as long to download this additional content as to download the asp itself, so based on your connection this could be significant. - in the alpha pig game, you can press each of the letters before he has explained which letter you're looking for. My 2.5-year-old just mashes all the letters early and eventually gets it right. Something should change, maybe do not allow answers until he has said the letter you're looking for. - in the princess mini-game the movement is clunky and letters can get behind the word you're on

Great my toddler loves it My two-year-old loves super why. I got him this app, and he has tons of fun, he's learning to sing the abc's with the music video of pig singing them.

Mt 2-year-old Loves it My 2-year-old knows all her letters and most letter sounds. She watches the show too. This game is great. She loves it. It does freeze once in a while but all games do. Well worth every penny. Highly recommend!!!!!
★★☆☆☆
Cannot get extra game assets Bought the game and once downloaded are told further download required. I hate that! Then I am unable to actually download those game assets as it keeps failing. Waste of money and time!
★★☆☆☆
PBS Super Why Would not open after purchased. Never found a way to request refund.
★★☆☆☆
Always consuming data Pack. Cheating App I paid and installed the app, upon starting, it will prompt to download additional assets which will take forever and keeps restarting. Until now, I am still unable to use it at all. Complete waste of money!
