Pinkfong Baby Shark for Negative User Reviews
✓ DONT LET KIDS USE UNSUPERVISEDYou know. There is nothing seriously wrong with the app itself. It’s baby shark for Pete’s sake. It’s got good content and fun games. My issue is with the adds that this games chooses to present. One was a online casino type game and it’s slogan was, “adult games for adult emotions”. I heard it come on so I went and looked. It’s a bunch of anime exposed cleavage very inappropriate content for a 3 year old. The second ad was of a little test dummy being killed in various ways. Very disgusted that they would let those advertisements be associated with a children’s app..Version: 11.3
✓ Please make changesOur 2.5 year old girl loves the content on this app, however every few minutes ads will pop up and she does not know how to exit the ad. The ads are also very inappropriate for a child’s game. Please consider charging $2.99 for ad free version like many other kid friendly apps we have. Will gladly pay for that option..Version: 14.8 (0)
✓ Paid to remove ads but never workedI’m giving one star because I paid to remove the ads and they never went away but it took my money anyways.Version: 11.1
✓ Black screenSince the new update all I get is a black screen with sound. Previously the app worked great I wouldn’t download the new update it has more bugs than the last update.Version: 14.7
✓ Stop the ads and read the roomI was using this app for sometime with my baby and she loved it!! Then the developers did the unthinkable ... they put a ridiculous amount of ads. How do they expect young children to avoid the ads? It will just frustrate them and they will close the app. Don’t they realize who is using the app? Why are they targeting ads to young children?.Version: 12.0
✓ Won’t restore no ads purchaseI paid £1.99 to remove ads and when it updated it wouldn’t restore my purchase.Version: 13.0
✓ ITS the worst game EverI dont like this game its Not useful.Version: 28(5)
✓ Great app, inappropriate advertisementsThis is a great app that included multiple versions of the baby shark song + games. My toddler could easily navigate the app. Unfortunately ads pop up while you’re using this app and one of them was very inappropriate. It advertised a game called “Kick the Buddy Forever” and it was a game about hanging with a noose. My child is toddler, she doesn’t need to be exposed to those type of ads. Shame on pinkfong for allowing those ads on their children apps.Version: 11.6
✓ Remove ads is a scamThe ads for this game are completely inappropriate for a child’s game. Absolutely unacceptable. Even when you recognize the ploy to make money but decide to go ahead and pay to remove the ads, this only works for a couple of weeks then they come back even more inappropriate than before. Don’t bother with any of this nonsense.Version: 11.6
✓ Full of adsLots of ads, paid for ads to be removed and they’re still there. ads right in the list of different activities and kids don’t know the difference and don’t understand why it’s not working. poor design in this aspect.Version: 28(5)
✓ Baby shark is way to overratedBaby shark is the most annoying, stupid, terrible song every to exist on this world it’s so annoying and dumb, I can’t tell you my how dumb it every time I hear that dumb song it so so so bad the vocals and everything now I don’t have a problem with the sharks it’s the song. It’s so bad and every other song too is terrible it brings me into fear of the poor kiddos suffering out there annoying there sibilings and parents the kids are getting baby shark brain washed. GET RID OF THE STUPIDEST BABY SHARK SONG EVER. BAN BABY SHARK.Version: 18.4(2)
✓ Sooo many adsThere are way too many ads, almost every minutes you’ll have to close the ad that pops up..Version: 21.0
✓ I love the app, but crashing to muchMy three year old and I love this app, but on her iPad it keeps crashing, I’ve uninstalled and reinstalled multiple times and it will download the songs then crash again. I pay for the ad free so I am hoping this gets fixed soon..Version: 14.3
✓ Crashes too oftenI paid 1.99 to remove the ads that popped up frequently but now I am having issues with the app crashing and have to offload and redownload the app almost daily or it doesn’t work. My daughter loves this app but I am tempted to find her something else that I don’t have to reload everyday..Version: 14.3
✓ Horrible commercial adI downloaded this for my toddler as it’s baby shark, who wouldn’t? And was mortified that the very first ad showed a graphic zombie game commercial! Until you can take better care of what you’re showing our kids, I will not be using Pinkfong anymore. Super disappointed. How could you think is appropriate? You either don’t care or you don’t know what’s being shown on your app and both are not acceptable..Version: 12.0
✓ Too many adsI downloaded this app for my toddler and In between every game it starts play an ad and it won’t let you push the X to get it off sometimes I have to close the entire app and start over because there’s no way to get past the ad and we obviously do not want the games are advertising because they’re not even toddler games at least let her push the X so she can keep playing.Version: 14.2
✓ Not worth the moneyFirst of all, there were way to many inappropriate ads for children. So we paid to remove ads, and they are still popping up! The app also crashes every few minutes, or the sound doesn’t work. Save your money, don’t buy this..Version: 18.4(2)
✓ Paid for Pinkfong+ but there's still adsI paid for Pinkfong+ with the first bullet point being no ads in addition to access to all the Pinkfong apps. Even with the plus membership, there's still too many obnoxious ads that young ones won't know how to skip. They'll click on it and go to inappropriate content..Version: 18.4(2)
✓ Idk lolI like this app as my 2 yr old sister, but their are like inappropriate ads and im only 9 and my baby sis is 2 and its very long theirs also horror ads that my sister doesn’t like but im good with horror but my baby sister is afraid of it but we like the app but it has too many ads and i think its called sexual? But i hope you have a great day and pls put kid ads :).Version: 18.4(2)
✓ Couldn’t create an accountHello there, I have bought the app on my phone but I wanted to download it on my toddler’s tablet when i click to create an account to restore the purchase i did on my phone, its written not available in my country! Please help!.Version: 18.3
✓ The game is good but the ads are TERRIBLEThe ads are every 5ish minutes and wont let you X out for 5+ minutes. My toddler gets very frustrated with it & so do I..Version: 19.7
✓ App has gone way down hillGreat apps my daughter loves it I’ve been using it for about a year. Lately a million ads pop up a while back I purchased the remove ads bundle when they weren’t so bad now it doesn’t work at all I have to downgrade to the old app just so she can enjoy it now..Version: 14.7
✓ Terrible For KidsThis app is all ad-based, which is asinine considering it’s intended for kids. If your kid wants to use it you must constantly be attentive to it because the ads pop up out of nowhere and my three-year-old doesn’t understand how to close them. Furthermore, some of the ads are explicit and clearly geared toward parents. So unless you want to hang around and watch repetitive baby shark videos and games with your child, this app works only to frustrate. Thanks, PinkFong for giving us the most annoying piece of pop-culture since Spongebob and supporting it with an app that is NOT user friendly toward children. If I could give this zero stars I would..Version: 16.0
✓ Age inappropriate advertsDo not download. Adverts appear after a while which are extremely age inappropriate..Version: 11.6
✓ No pinkfong game registers purchases.Purchased game for toddler. Got confirmation screen, purchase shows on my transaction history, but still get constant ads, games unavailable, etc. in short: nothing has changed. When trying to purchase again, it tells me I’ve already purchased it. Incredibly frustrating. My daughter is obsessed with baby shark (and loves everything pinkfong) but every time she opens the game, it always resulted in a serious tantrum… so the game was deleted. I’ve had other issues with pinkfong products & games, so I stopped buying their products (after spending hundreds of dollars). Now my daughter has to wait for me to 3D sculpt & print any baby shark toys (I’m a toy maker & 3D artist) - and, if needed, install any electronics into the toy. Unfortunately I don’t have the time to create games like this for her too. Really disappointing. I’ve noticed other people having similar issues on other games as well… so really not worth it, especially when you’re already dealing with the dreaded “terrible twos”. This one is a hard pass. I really wish Dragon Dee would release some mobile games in the US. Their stuff is way more appropriate anyways..Version: 18.5(7)
✓ Too many ads for toddlersThere are way too many ads for toddlers to click and interrupt their game. It’s a shame how many. I am not letting my baby play another game because it is just ridiculous how many ads are on games for kids. This is shocking that all Pinkfong games are this way when the audience is babies and toddlers. 🙄.Version: 14.8 (0)
✓ Inappropriate and Too Many AdsWhat are these ads they play? Advertising things of sexual nature and violence. Not appropriate for a children's app! Additionally too many ads that are difficult to close. Every song there is like 5 or 6 layers of ads that have to be clicked out. It frustrates my son that he can’t figure out how to close them. I do not know how this app was approved for kids..Version: 17.0(1)
✓ Won’t work since updateSince the update 15hrs ago (writing on 12.1.20) this app will no longer open. When I try to load it, it just closes itself down. I can’t find any way to contact for support or to report the issue..Version: 14.3
✓ Ads on a children’s gameIt is completely infuriating trying to play this game and being flooded with adverts, none of which are even appropriate to the age guidelines on this. Predominantly gambling games. Infuriating..Version: 18.4(2)
✓ Greedy...I paid to have adverts removed and since the last update an advert is displayed before the game even loads up. Greedy devs who should respect what remove adverts means..Version: 18.4(2)
✓ Dreadful AppThere is far to many ads my two year old doesn’t understand the concept of ads I uninstalled this watching a child get frustrated was too much..Version: 18.5(7)
✓ Horrible pop up ads for toddlersCute baby sharks videos...until an ad pops up for the game “Kick The Buddy Forever” appears with an emoji figure with his head in a guillotine calling you loser, or him getting blown to pieces with an assault automatic weapon or cut into pieces by saw blades . This is just what my 3 year old should see when trying to watch innocent videos. Shame on you, pink Fong. Do better..Version: 11.6
✓ Too buggy to even useTried to use the app but the amount of ads made it unplayable. Tried to watch the ads to play uninterrupted but it literally locked all of the games so that you couldn’t play them until the ad timer was up. My kid is 4 and she could make an app with less bugs than this one..Version: 18.5(7)
✓ #greatforyoungkidsHey my 2 year old sister loves baby shark and this app is amazing they can do drawing, watch the videos, play games, learn and much more. Download this game for you little one. Includes noise🔊peace out byyyyeeewe.Version: 14.8 (0)
✓ Very BuggyMy daughter loves this app but it shuts down often while she’s playing games. Used to work without internet now it doesn’t. Bought the no ads thing on 3 different devices and it’s buggy. One device it doesn’t work half the time and we still get ads another device has an ad before the app that my daughter clicked on that took her to another window. And the third device dies down lay the ads but has a black screen in between videos the same length as an ad. I also don’t like that a couple of the options in the same place as games is pretty much ads for other pink fong games but it looks like a game so my daughter clicks on them all the time, and gets upset. I wouldn’t recommend this app to anyone if my daughter didn’t baby shark so much I’d delete it..Version: 18.4(2)
✓ Ads in paid version for kids game??I paid for this app so my 2 year old could play without worrying about him clicking on any ads… and there are SO MANY ads still present in the paid version that it’s unusable. There is a full page ad that pops up when you open the app, followed by a windowed ad, and then there are like 3 ads that look like game options so kids will click on them. Really shameful to put so many ads in the PAID VERSION of a children's game. Wish I could get a refund because I had to delete the app. My son was constantly navigating away from the games because there are so many places to click ads. Too bad because the games are cute..Version: 18.4(2)
✓ Love the app but the ads are inappropriateI’ve had this app for several months now and my son loves it. Although, the other day I looked at the screen and a very inappropriate ad was up. It was an ad for an 18+ game and it had a very sexualized cartoon drawing of a man who was dressed up as a firefighter holding a hose, and a “scratch off” box over his crotch. The ad wanted you to wipe your finger across his crotch to reveal what was underneath... That was the second time an ad of this type has come up on the Baby Shark app. That type of advertising has NO place on an app designed for young children. My son will not be using this app again until this is fixed..Version: 11.6
✓ Ads?What’s the point in paying for an app, just to get slammed with another fee to remove ads?! You can’t play the game anymore than a few minutes before getting slammed with stupid ads! Set a price that allows the client to download the game and be able to play the game! Why all these hidden fees? Just makes me mad! DELETE!.Version: 28(5)
✓ Don’t downloadThe second I downloaded it took control over my phone.Version: 16.0
✓ Ads are ridiculousMy 2 year old is obsessed with this app, and just as much hates it. The ads that pop up constantly are the longest ads I’ve ever seen in an app and the fact that you can’t skip out of them quickly is even more annoying. I can’t tell you how many times my phone or iPad have gone flying because of them. And worse yet none of them are AGE APPROPRIATE! Every ad is for adults and yesterday an adult slots ad kept playing, prominently featuring nearly naked women!!! I was livid! Thankfully my child is only 2 and didn’t understand, but I can’t imagine what the parent of a four year old would have thought. Something needs to be corrected in your settings so age appropriate ads play and they need to be a lot shorter, a minute or more is not something any child wants to sit through..Version: 11.1
✓ Way too many ads!You can’t X out quickly and of course if your child is holding your phone, they will inevitably hit the ad. The ads are for adults. (Candy Crush, Apparel Shopping) There should be a middle price point for ad removal..Version: 14.8 (0)
✓ No Adds Option Is A ScamThere’s an option to buy add free for 3.99. normally i don’t but my toddler was constantly clicking on the adds that are animated like a mini game then require an adult to solve a math problem. Not only are those still there but there’s still ads when the game is first launched, literally nothing changed. it is the same app from before i spent 3.99 and i’m still hearing “Uh Oh fix iiit!!!” every 2 minutes on the car ride it was supposed to make easier..Version: 18.5(7)
✓ Paid and now it crashesBrought this for my son, since paying all it does is crash!!! Very disappointing and I would not recommend..Version: 14.3
✓ AdsToo many ads. Not only that but the ads are annoying. The skip button is often used to purchase the app from the ad. So when you try to skip it takes you to the App Store instead. Wouldn’t recommend. There’s plenty of other games with less ads or at least ones that don’t try to force you to purchase.Version: 18.3
✓ Don’t bother paying for it!Honestly my kids love these apps but every two seconds they tap on a ‘for grownups only” page because they tapped on an icon that looks like another part of the app that directs them to more pink font apps. Why pay for no ads when they are still going to make it so they advertise their other games. Not worth! It’s so annoying as a parent and for my kids. Unfortunately all the other apps they have are the same making it really not user friendly for their users..Version: 12.0
✓ Waste of downloadMust be connected to wifi to play games, too many ads, costs money to remove ads. Pointless game!.Version: 24.0
✓ TerribleFilled with deceptive patterns and ads even after purchasing. Does not pass accessibility contrast guidelines for major nav buttons. Stay away.Version: 27.0
✓ 苦恼的 Ai 你呢muBcQQ啊I温暖眉清目秀膜拜AWJ下决心A看Ujkpwaaifj.Version: 11.6
✓ App crashes each time.Open the app. Play a song. It crashes and turns off. Delete and download it again. I paid to get rid of ads. I open it. It crashes. It turns off by itself. And why do you even bother to have play and pause when it does not work. This app is on Iphone 12. And runs on Ios 14.3. Please fix it. It is freaking stupid even to have this kind of problem.Version: 14.3
✓ Not what I thought it was 2 StarrWhen i downloaded it from the app I thought it would be could but it actually is not what you think 1st you just literally listen to the song and the add shows that you press something to make tune so don’t download if you came because advert..Version: 11.1
✓ Garbage App, poor for little children, the people who want to use thisThere are too many ads, even when you pay for it. My two year old cant use it because the app constantly takes you to the App store and this is with a paid whatever to this app, to unlock everything. It could be much better for little children, its very unfortunate that Pinkfong cant make something better with all the money they have..Version: 18.5(7)
✓ Candy CrushDownloaded for kids to use but after one game, mandatory candy crush adds came on the screen and kept trying to download. Games themselves are good but don’t like the way advertisements take over the app..Version: 24.0
✓ Full of ads!This is a kids app. I have many kids app, paid and unpaid that do not have ads! Kids (toddlers) who this is targeted to do not know how to navigate their way out of these annoying ads. Please make this a paid app upfront and remove the ads! Will be removing all apps by Pinkfong..Version: 18.5(7)
✓ Irresponsible Advertising And Data Gathering EmbeddedHas loads of inappropriate adverts embedded in it which your toddler clicks on and then gets directed out of the app onto business websites on the internet. Deeply irresponsible. Really annoyed by this. Do NOT download and leave your small child with this app..Version: 10.0
✓ ITS YA BOI RYANBURGERI was told by a person named maddy to download this game, since it was maddy I didn’t expect much. When I opened the game it had baby shark (go figure) but with a few games couple of videos and a coloring thing. The videos are normal for baby shark standard. For the games since it’s made for kids I will say it could be harder; especially for the matching game. Maybe having the more you get right the more cards you have to match. For coloring it’s your standard coloring few pages, couple of colors plus sparkly variations. In all it’s not the worse app I’ve seen but if your older than like 3 I don’t really recommend it. I got bored of it after a few minutes but did it cause WHY NOT TRY IT AND STUFF. If your a Eli obsessed with noot noot and baby shark this app is perfect for you..Version: 11
✓ Not a game and riddled with ads kids don’t understand to avoidDisappointed.Version: 14.7
✓ Why?It would have been a 5 but there is an ad bar at the bottom of the screen and whenever someone would play on it they would accidentally click on the ad.Version: 24.0
✓ Still have adsI paid for ‘no more ads ever’ and everytime my son opens the app he gets an add. He is 4 so doesn’t know how to get out of it. So frustrating and what a waste of my money..Version: 18.4(2)
✓ Ads ads and AdsTerrible, full of ads for a kid app.Version: 28(5)
✓ Leaves out the best version of baby sharkThere is no “baby shark but I’m screaming the lyrics” 1 star.Version: 10.0
✓ So many adsMy 3 year old loves this app but gets frustrating when he accidentally hits the ads, or when the ads pop up constantly. Recently the app has been closing as soon as it is opened. Disappointing.Version: 14.2
✓ Was a favourite till it stopped workingAs of this week we now get a message when opening the app that minor bug fixes have been made and please update. Well we can't update as our child uses an older tablet (we don't give them new ones for obvious reasons). So the app is useless. I don't understand why you couldn't keep the older version functional the way it was.....Version: 16.0
✓ Pornography Advertisers on a kids appParents beware!!! We had downloaded this for our toddler because he’s obsessed with baby shark. He really enjoyed the app and it was easy to use for him. App should get 5 stars. The reason I gave it 1 star is that the advertisements that are in the app are sometimes straight up porn. This is NOT OK in a children’s app! I understand the need for advertising but pick appropriate advertising. PORN ON KIDS APPS IS NOT APPROPRIATE.Version: 11.6
✓ So annoyingThe ads are terrible and excessive. Even when the “x” appears it takes multiple times to exit out of them. Half the time when you press the “x” it takes you to try App Store for the advertised app. It’s impossible for young kids to play with all the ads..Version: 11.6
✓ It’s stopped workingIt would of been 5 stars as both my children have loved this app. However recently it’s stopped allowing me to watch the videos and complete closes the app! Not happy as I have paid to stop the ads from show up too??.Version: 18.1
✓ To many advertsFar to many adverts for a child’s game! Not even a setting to turn them off.Version: 11.5
✓ AdsPay for the ads not to be their and every time you open the app they pop up. Don’t waste your money on the ad removal. It is a lie and I paid $3.99 for that and it’s not true. Pingfong don’t say the ads are going to go away if they are not don’t lie about it just so I will spend money..Version: 19.7
✓ Still ads after paying!!There are still ads even after paying for them to be removed. They are for other Pinkfong apps and they still open the annoying screen that only a parent can navigate. Also, as a teacher, none of the games are educational in any form or fashion. This is just a bunch of random mini games with zero educational function and ads on ads on ads! How is my child supposed to benefit from any of this?.Version: 18.4(2)
✓ Ads still show after paying to remove themWould have been 5 stars BUT it turns out it’s buggy in that I paid for no ads and ads still showed the next time I opened the app! Tried restore purchase but no luck.Version: 14.0
✓ Great kids app BUT full of adsVery disappointing to see a great kids app ruined by grown up adverts. Should not be anywhere near a kids app Come on..Version: 14.9(2)
✓ Too many ads for kids game.I understand that while free there are some ads but 2 yr olds should have to suffer through so many ads, let alone ads about casino games. :/ And yes it is buggy. Too bad because it’s otherwise very fun..Version: 18.5(7)
✓ I’d give this 5 stars if it weren’t for the adsThe ads that pop up during this game, rated for 4+ year olds, are absolutely despicable. I looked over at my 2.5 year old child watching/clicking on an ad for an app that was encouraging him to push a lever to hang a doll from noose. This wasn’t the first inappropriate add to pop up on this app either. I cannot believe this type of advertisement would be shown on a child’s app ever, let alone a baby shark app geared towards younger users..Version: 14.8 (0)
✓ So annoyingThis is so annoying you can not let you children for 10 seconds without commercial popping out.Is a app for kids why so many commercials..Version: 16.0
✓ DisappointedHere to rate this one star because since this game is targeted towards kids as an educational app you’d assume the ads would be targeted towards kids as well, right? WRONG. My 4 year old is now asking me why the cartoon got its head chopped off because they advertised a playable guillotine game ad. Now I feel compelled to remove the app from both of my girls tablets because I don’t want to have them exposed to that again..Version: 11.5
✓ Invasive advertsThe adverts remove the interest of the game. Disappointed..Version: 14.0
✓ Apparently instruments are a bit glitchy.Valentina is a bad game. She recommends that the game should be work. I’m going to fix/remove the board. I don’t want the boards come back in a week. Because, as a result of glitching. Please fix it right now!.Version: 28(5)
✓ Love having without using data or wifiHATE that while I paid to remove ads on one device it did not apply to all my devices on the same Apple account.Version: 10.0
✓ Rubbish game but good for baby'sThis is such a rubbish but it keeps my 5 year old brother entertained.Version: 16.0
✓ Game would be better with easier adsThis game has ads that come up in the middle of games. The skip for the ads changes. Sending the kids to the App Store to get the game advertised. Almost unplayable for little ones. The games are fine. If they change that maybe but otherwise I’m deleting. Sad my grandson loves this brand..Version: 19.7
✓ Still adsPaid for ad removal and we still get ads, my son is always asking for help because it takes him to whatever ad shows up if he clicks it. I even use guided access so he stays in the app and doesn’t find himself in another one. I would delete it but he loves watching the videos it’s just covered with ads, the games are very simple. He even gets bored with them quickly..Version: 11
✓ Not even playableThis game is loaded with so many ads, once you load the app there’s a add once you skip it and press anything, theres an add, this game is loaded with that many ads I do not recommend anyone installing this.Version: 18.5(7)
✓ The latest update has broken itI have the paid version of the app (paid prior to the update with the new layout including the bread catching game). The game no longer gets past the loading page before closing itself. I’ve tried closing the app and restarting the phone (iPhone 11). When it worked it was definitely 5 star worthy, only qualm being the recently increased number of times I have to try clicking the teeny weeny x to get out of the parental lock modal..Version: 14.3
