DRAWING FOR KIDS Games! Apps 2
reviews and complaints

My kids enjoy this game and it’s fun for them. I have been playing it with them for over a year. Then maybe say 7 months or so went buy and I swear I remember purchasing everything and unlocking what was available because I remember at the time telling my daughter I got everything unlocked , now there is a hardly anything I can draw and it’s a subscription model. Is that new ? Was it previously set up differently? I tried to press restore purchase but nothing happened

We love this app! It is great for tracing and motor skill, it is fun, and completely engrosses my kiddo when I need to brush their hair. The only thing I hate and why I can’t give it full stars is the subscription. I don’t mind paying for stuff as it would be worth it but a subscription? Subscriptions for game apps just seem like a sneaky way to get money from people whereas if they just had a one time “you can open all the extra features or most with a one time payment” option I would take it.

I missed cancelling their free trial by one day. I thought OK, it’s going to be $4.99 a month or something not too bad, my mistake, but they charged me close to $30! I e-mailed their website and basically they said they couldn’t help me. Very frustrating & not worth the cost! And guess what? There is still Ads to download their other games in the app after that money is spent all over. So, your 2-3 year old can get easily in the wrong thing instead of staying in the stupid thing you just Paid for!

They may delete my review But I do NOT RECOMMEND downloading this app inside the app u get a select few of things to try and it makes you pay for stuff I makes u pay to color with certain colors ! And there is a select fe to color with which is black white pink green yellow and blue , any other color cost separately! This app is not how it seems on the cover but if your baby’s don’t care about colors download and also in order to color say u pick dinosaur they give u one dinosaur to re color over and over I get a select few of coloring pictures also this is so stupid

My 3 year old brother Tucker is a toddler. And he is a good drawer now and even I love the game! This is a very good game because there are good rates and no adds and last it teaches you how to draw better to be a neat person at drawing and it makes them make better pictures. Also, it is free if it was not, he would not be this neat at drawing pictures and kids would not be able to download the very great magnificent app . This is a wounderful games for kids/baby’s . Ps, shouting out this on YouTube. Pss, love the game and graphics

My one year old daughter loved this game, it really made her laugh. The bull and the dog sniffing and sneezing cracked her up every time. But, then it got old, before she was 2. I can’t see an older kid being interested for long as some of the animations are preprogrammed and so repetitive or simple they just don’t entertain. Others have controls and you can make the animals do stuff, so the potential to be great is there, just needs more effort by the developers to make the all the content entertaining. Don’t be afraid to introduce to very young kids and do it with them. Couldn’t rationalize paying for more than one year.

Hi, this app is amusing! I appreciate. This I am 7 years old I know it’s for 4, year Olds but it helps me a lot with my drawing and I’m getting better everyday! It’s really good app game and not that much adds when I play it’s a really good app and as I said it helps me alot I might tell my little cousin the play this game it will help him with his drawing and so will my frined he always crucible scarbles on the pages as her colors so I think it will help some of my family members Drawings. And it’s going to help them ❤️ a lot with it and this app is truly for everyone no matter your age and you can draw whatever u want and soon, some people will be able to color by number!

I paid the full purchase price to unlock all the drawings on this app. My toddler thinks they are fun and the animation at the end is cute. However I am completely annoyed that there are other apps to download mixed in with the drawing choices. I paid full price so my little wasn’t constantly handing the tablet back to me for help because something was locked. Now she is clicking on the funny food app box or the drawing 123 box and her play is interrupted. It is beyond aggravating and it makes me regret paying the full price for this app. It would be so cute without the obvious placement of other apps that they want you to download and then pay to unlock more options within those apps.

I paid for the yearly subscription which isn’t cheap (almost $50 I think). Yet you have to restore your purchase every single time you open the app making it so your kid is constantly running up to you to “fix it”. They’re betting on you forgetting that you bought it and buying it again (and when you have a gazillion apps on your phone and this company has multiple apps but you’re only subscribed to one, things start to get fuzzy). The restore purchase button is very small and grayed out by the way, thank God my husband saw it because I actually had thought my subscription had expired and was about to spend another $50. Oh, and if your kid can add, watch out, because that’s the only thing keeping them from being able to buy it themselves. Do better y’all.

I absolutely love it! It’s great! I specifically like that kids can trace the line so they learn how to draw! If you have a kid and reading this, you should definitely get it for them! I think it suits probably kids 7 and under, but something that REALLY bothers me and my kids is that there are SOOOO many locked drawings! Isn’t this app supposed to make kids learn how to draw? Well if it is then why are so many drawings locked? I looked and there were only like 10-14 drawings allowed! And all the others were locked! My kids completed all of them in a day or two and they eventually got bored again, and don’t unlock ALL of them because that wouldn’t be fair so just make some more drawings unlocked, then I know kids would love it more! Please! I’m begging you to fix this! If you do, I would change it to five stars immediately! ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️

Hello

I have just finished the trial version of Drawing For Kids. I did download this app with my own Apple ID due to my daughter not having her Apple ID. I realized there is an option for family sharing and proceeded with setting up her own Apple ID. After allowing to share my purchases with her Apple ID, I did not realize that I would not be able to share this purchase with her Apple ID. On top of all things, when the trial version expired, the app seemed to automatically default to the yearly fee of $29.99. I would think I should have been prompted to decide and choose the level of subscription the next time I opened your app. That did not happened and was charged the above mentioned price. My daughter does enjoy it, but I would have really liked to have option to first have the option to pick the desired level of subscription. And just as importantly having the option to allow to share with my daughter’s Apple ID.

Recently updated to subscription blocking some previous purchases. Will delete won’t allow daughters to download again. Would love to give zero stars.
Move your ads and/or make them statistically improbable for children to be directed to the App Store.
Examples:
Take the adds out of the line up of drawings in ‘Drawing for Kids’ and put a ‘more games’ icon where the sound icon is and integrate the sound icon into the setting/information button.
A second “answer” could dramatically reduce the probability of a child going to the App Store. For example “2nd and 4th letter of BEST? With 5 letter options. Drops the stat to below 1 percent in true random but more like %10 in applied probability. Or even keeping numerical “2x7=?” And having 5 numbers (0,1,2,3,4) has the same desired effect.
A wrong answer having a 10-30 second delay on accessing the App Store would strongly dissuade children as well.
You want me to get rid of my 1review... I want you to fix a problem that you have in providing kids access to the App Store.

I actually enjoyed coloring the bird and the hedgehog. The dog was less fun because I hate dogs.

When I first opened the app it asked me to purchase a free trial. I was grumpy then did not want to. If only I had know how foolish was. After drawing the first option, the cat… I was hooked. Right then and there I almost bought the full game, but I decided against it. If only I had know how bad of a decision that was. After the second a third drawing… the lovely bird and the not so lovely dog, I was again prompted to buy the full game. At that point I was ready to spend my hard earned money on such a lovely app. Unfortunately some outside sources pushed me to not. If only I had known not to listen to those outside sources.

Overall I think this app is pretty good, but I wish there was more in the demo. I also wish they would remove the dog, because as I mentioned in my first paragraph I do not like dogs. If they remove the dog I will rate this app 5 stars, but until then, a four star review it will remain.

Thank you for making this app, whoever you are. I am wholeheartedly excited to discover your next endeavor.

Warm Wishes

I would love to give this app 5 stars and if you are an individual with only one device it is a joy! Worth every penny and deserving of 5 stars.

If, however, you have family sharing and you think your purchases will work with your family sharing members you are in for a rude awakening. For me it was a $60 dollar awakening (only because I purchased the year subscription, potentially more if one purchases the lifetime). Each time you download this program on any device you are paying the full fee per.

I don’t know what other “purchases” you could make that are covered by family sharing. That is what it says. “Some purchases” covered by family share. In fact no purchases are covered. What else is there to purchase?

I, like many of you, look for family sharing when choosing apps. I have more than one child, each child has a device.

This is false advertisement and the company should stop advertising themselves as a family sharing app.

That being said. GREAT app. KIDS LOVE IT!. But NOT worth multiple purchases at 19.99 a year (per family member) or worse $29.99 per device.

You will not get help or a refund. That’s all I have to say about that!

There are a few things that I hate about this game, but overall it is a good game if the problems and interruptions were fixed. There were crashes, glitches, the offer of other games that I have to pay for, and the subscription. I’m going to list them by how much they should be fixed (or how much I hate them). For example, the first issue would be the one I hate the most, while the last issue would be the one I hate the least.

1. Crashes. My toddler keeps telling me that the game won’t work, so I go on, it starts up, I pick a random picture, ( the cat ) as soon as I touch it the game crashes ( in more specific words, the screen turns white, then it takes me to my home screen ). So I try again, but with a car this time. The same thing happens. I try this 4 more times on different pictures but it doesn’t work. Had to delete and download it again to make it work. ( It still would crash but only every 5 months or so. )

2. The other games. When my toddler taps on a different game, like learning your alphabet or learning your numbers, I let her download them, only to find out that they are other games to pay for. I’m already annoyed that the game I’m already paying for has a ridiculous amount of money that I have to pay, now I’ve got my toddler constantly asking why she can’t play something locked on that game, and asking me to fix it.

3. Subscription. This would have been 1. on my list if I actually paid subscription for all the games, but I only paid for one, so it’s annoying, but less annoying than the others. 7 dollars a month. Really? That’s 84 dollars a year. While there’s a 30 dollars a year option too. And the game tricked me with that. And I had this game for 3 years, With the subscription. That’s 252 dollars down the drain. Thanks for that, bambini.

4. Glitches. The reason I didn’t have glitches and crashes together is because they are very different in this case. Also, before I start talking about what the glitches are, I want to say why this is the least annoying. My toddler doesn’t only mind it, but complain to me that the glitch didn’t work, and to make the glitch happen. The reason I found this out is because of my curiosity of what “it” is. I asked her what she was talking about, She told me it let you make your background. So I told her whenever she came across it to tell me. When she saw it, she showed me. It was a glitch to where the lines to where you have to draw, and your limit to how far you can go, disappeared. And the game acted like the borders of the picture wasn’t there, so, she could draw anywhere on the screen with no limit. Even though it was fun to draw everywhere on the screen, it was a glitch, so it has to be fixed.

I hope my issues will be fixed, although I highly doubt it. If my issues are fixed, I will rate this 5 stars. This game deserves it with all the work put into it. I really like this game, it just has a lot of glitches. Don’t take my review personally.

I’m deleting this game. I purchased it for my daughter and unlocked all the activities but after the update it’s charging me for a monthly subscription. They have also added more drawings that are locked and that you have to pay for AND they have locked some of her old favorites

Subscription to simply draw a photo is mind boggling. Subscriptions have gotten absolutely out of hand. This is a drawing app. An app! One time fee for a low level program one time fee. Not worth the subscription. It’s not netflix, it’s a paint program, let’s get reasonable here.

I give this a 1/5. The service is HORRIBLE! None of the games are okay for my child. My child was NOT HAPPY. With the games that they had. THIS GAME OVERALL IS 1/5. NEVER! EVER WILL I EXPERIENCE THIS OR EVER AGAIN DOWNLOAD THIS! IF I SEE THIS GAME AGAIN I WILL REPORT! Thank you.

My child has been using this app for more than a year, and has been able to color a lot of the animals. Now many of those animals are locked? Unless I pay $7/month? Her previously colored animals are showing locked, so she very few options and doesn’t care for this app anymore. Sad.

So when I was playing the game I drew a cat but it would not let me leave I was so confused that happened I didn’t know what to do but come here it wasn’t that bad but it was weird and stange I didn’t understand what was happening it was just a weird thing about that please do fix this thank you

This was a really fun app for my 3 year old for an hour until it got to the point where it was unusable unless I paid for the full subscription. I would have considered doing that but since I didn’t even have a day to try the free one and see if I liked it without constantly being prompted to pay for a subscription.

It’s fine it’s just I feel like it would be better if we could not pay for anything and we could color it in would be cool I don’t know I’d like it I’m sure a lot of other people would like it to your decision but you’d definitely get more people playing and more good reviews and more stars hope you do it! Thanks!:)

My kids loved the app after using it during the trial period. So I wanted to get it for them, but ended up getting charged the yearly subscription on my account, and all 3 of my kids account. What I read made it seem like the app can be shared across family sharing. So I had to pay nearly $200 for this app. Not happy.

I was happy to pay the 5 to have access to all the pictures. Upon opening the app up for my daughter and finding the drawings we had already paid for were now locked I will be uninstalling. I wouldn’t even be upset if the subscription option hadn’t taken away what we had already paid for but just included new content.

When I started playing the game I tried to color more but then it said that I had to pay just to color something else! first it tells me the game is free but then when I try to color something else it tells me i have to pay! I only got to color two things in the hole game! I want to say just three things…SUCH A…SCAM!

I’m really annoyed that I made the purchase so my daughter could color the locked drawings, and after making the purchase my little girl was able to do one christmas drawing, the next day she opens the app to make another drawing and shockingly all of the drawings were locked.

WHY? It doesn’t make any sense I just paid for that.

This app was great when I purchased and unlocked it a few years ago but now it won't even load anymore. I have an old iPad but it really shouldn't make a difference. I paid for the app so I think I should be able to play it for my kids. When we click on the app we get a white screen for a few seconds then it goes back to home screen.

-there are well too many promos for a paid app. No one want to install all the apps just to stop the ads. This is the biggest complaint in the reviews and yet you con tinge. Wish I had not purchased this now. It’s too hard for the kids to say no and continue using the app. Please fix this in a user friendly way for those who have paid for it.

I cancelled or so I thought and they still charged me, during the free trial it wouldn’t work on my daughters iPad so I cancelled it. It either didn’t cancel or they charged me anyhow. I am trying to get ahold of someone for help. Hopefully I do. It worked on my daughters old phone but not on her iPad so I really don’t wanna pay on here when it doesn’t work.

Love the activities and the content updates over the last year, but the app constantly freezes after every drawing recently in the stage where the child can interact with their drawing and the buttons in the upper left and right disappear so we always have to force close.
It’s been like this since like April i think… very annoying and disruptive, please fix this.

It’s an Amazing app. I had bought the whole version. My son loves it. Unfortunately it has been a week that he has not been able to play it because the app doesn’t load. It just freezes on the intro and does not continue. I will change Thai to 5 star if Thai can be resolved. I do need assistance in how this can be corrected thank you. It’s unfortunate not to be able to use an app that I purchased.

We purchased this app before they released their subscription service. And now it has locked most of the drawings and we can’t restore our purchase. So we lost the ability to draw all the pictures we’d unlocked and now they want us to pay monthly when I’ve already paid once for the app. Customer service never wrote me back either. Disappointed because my daughter used to love this app, which is why I paid to unlock it in the first place.
