Thanks for your replied. I have submitted the issue to your support team and hope to get the reply soon. I paid for annual package which started from 26 November 2020 and now still ask me to subscribe and I cannot proceed if not sign up!!!! Not many books compare to App Storytel. Most of […]

So I just downloaded the app because it said 30 day free trial…I have 3 kids who I would’ve loved to get them into more reading. But I downloaded the app, made the account and was in the process of accepting the free trial then boom it never loads. I decided to reload it on […]

This app has a lot of issues. So I subscribe to get the 30days trial and after 7days they say my free trial has ended. They cancel everything so i can try again.Subscribe again, and every time i go to the app it says your subscription is over. Can’t watch a video or anything, a […]

My kids and I love this app. About an hour if stories together every night is part of our routine now. Sadly, the app hasn’t been very responsive lately. It seems the touch screen stops responding once you pick a story, which wouldn’t be that big an issue, except much of the time the book […]

Very good stories, and updated. Don’t always agree that titles are age appropriate according to how they are graded due to difficult vocabulary and subjects. I would like the option to have the story tellers voice switched off optionally. To read a book it would be great to have only the background music/sound on but […]

Hi, Pros: Beautifully designed books and animations- I loved it. Cons: In the young age children are learning to read. And honestly I expected to have an option where I can switch off video mode and my child could read a book by herself and see the same animations in the background. Other wise this […]

Vooks is a fantastic tool I think. It is a combination of creativity, learning and fun! For sure reading a book to your child is fantastic. My kids love watching Vooks when we are out and about and this is so much more wholesome than simply playing games. The books are creative because of the […]

After a couple months using the free teacher’s membership I’ve decided to change my review from 5 stars to 3. After the first week.. i started getting ERRORS when trying to play some videos. Some works fine. Others don’t. MANY don’t. I contacted customer service twice. Each time was told to tweek my devices and […]

I don’t know if it’s a good app because you just go into paying for a subscription. They should just make it an app you have to buy on the app store if you will start the app by making an account then paying for it anyways without seeing it.

UPDATE: they have fixed the bug that caused the app to crash constantly. Out works great now, yay! I love that it is not just another screen. The reading pace is great for kids to be able to follow along. Huge variety of books to choose from. Highly recommend. I can not get anything to […]

Really loved this app and highly recommended it. But, I opened it today to find over half of the books I had saved in my library – most of my daughter’s favorites are gone. Maybe I missed it in the description or should have known, but I didn’t realize that books would be removed and […]

We love Vooks! I recommend it to all parents of young kids. Vooks is education and FUN screentime that also helps discover new titles. I have bought several books because my kid loves watching them on Vooks. I love how they organize content and change it depending on ongoing events, celebrations, etc. It’s amazing for […]

PROS: First of all, we have enjoyed this app immensely as a homeschool family. I bought the actual books of my son’s favorite books and he learned to read with these along with Vooks. Excellent video graphics and enjoyable soundtracks with books. It has been his favorite app of all time. CONS: for children that […]

Update: I changed my 3 stars to 5 stars because they have been frequently adding new books!! We love Vooks! It’s a great idea, but the fact that there’s not that many books and that they took a lot off makes me wonder how much longer I’ll keep a subscription. If they had a bigger […]

This is legitimatly the one app all 5 of my kids agree on. They love the books, especially when we find ones we already own. The “worst” part is when a favorite book leaves, but that usually just means it’s time for us to buy it for our own library. The way the illustrations are […]

My daughter loves this app. I wish it had a sleep timer! She likes to listen to the books as she falls asleep, but I need it to turn off after a while, not keep her tablet on all night. (I have tried using a separate sleep timer app, and I can’t get that to […]

I purchased this app based off online reviews and ads, but after just a day or two of using this app we quickly realized the books are not well known. We tried searching for titles or authors that are well known to kids and none would come up. And we tried using the suggestion category […]

was Skeptical but just BUY IT! This app is amazing! I don’t allow screen time but the way they do the videos and the words light up is great!! my kids and I both love sitting down and watching a video. I do wish that I could buy the book right from the video πŸ’œ […]
