Latest reviews of Caribu: Playtime Is Calling app for iPhone and iPad
Great app for anyone that is away from home a lot for work. I am a pilot for a major airline and use this app to read stories to my young son during my layovers. Sometimes the call gets dropped due to lower bandwidth at the hotel. Wish there was a audio only option that would require less bandwidth to help prevent this. Would make it 5 stars. FYI: After making a connection, stories on one iPad are available to the other iPad. You dont need to have the same story on both iPads.
This app will not even open on my iPad. Not the best start to a budding business. I had high hopes but to not even be able to open the app........what more can I say.
I downloaded this app because Im looking for one that will let me read to my grandchildren that live too far away. It seemed quite promising and opened just fine, but Im not even sure Im going to invite them to use it, because the selection of books to choose from is VERY limited -- and I didnt care very much for most of the few the books that are available.
Wow!!!!! What an intuitive, great looking and easy to use app! Its truly a God-send and has let me connect with my kids when Im away in a way I never thought possible. Excited to see what the developers have in store next!
Love this app and it makes being away from the kids so much more bearable.
