My Very Hungry Caterpillar AR for Negative User Reviews

Totally frustrated!Bought this after the IOS11 update on my ipad and iPhone. Struggled to get it to work properly but just thought it’s a new game and there’d be an update through shortly. It has appeared in my updates list today and is now saying it isn’t compatible with my iPad?!?! What is going on? Waste of money!!.Version: 1.0.2

I suppose it’s a good idea..But poor execution. The only thing that appears are a bunch of coloured discs. And most of the time they don’t even stay on the screen. Not worth the money at all..Version: 1.0.2

Good fun but needs daylightMy little girl likes it but in room light it’s way too dark..Version: 1.0.2

DisappointedOn my iPhone 6S and iPad we get nothing but music and a black screen. We have tried rebooting, re-downloading, and looking for the app to allow camera use with no success. I am hoping that this is an id10T error on my part....Version: 1.0.1

Not workingI agree with other reviewers. I have an IPhone 8 and this isn’t working. It is saying it’s not bright enough but it is 100 plus outside and this appears muddy and dark. Clearly something is broken and I just wasted 3.00..Version: 1.1.0

Huh?!Allowed me to purchase game on iPad mini 4 iOS 11 with no problem. Took the 4.99 THEN told me it wouldn’t work when went to update (and true it doesn’t work).Version: 1.0.2

Frustrating....After purchasing the previous non AR apps from this dev which my daughter loves I was really happy to go and buy this new AR version. Have had this app for a a few days and only ever got it to work once. Just get the floating circles constantly. Followed all instructions of using on a well lit flat table etc... still nothing happens. Frustrated have paid for an app that does nothing..Version: 1.0.2

Game restarts a lotGame restarts a lot which frustrates my son cause his progress goes away... it WAS working fine... I rebooted it and all but it still breaks often.Version: 5.0.0

Camera seems to be broken on iPhone8 plusI purchased this app to play with my toddler and the camera seems to be missing something. I can't get past the"not enough light" warning no matter how many lights I turn on. I also tried going outside where it was bright enough to need sunglasses. The camera image in the app appears muddy, slightly out of focus and very dark. I've compared what's shown to my camera app and its definitely darker. I have gotten the dots to appear, but no character. I've now tried in multiple locations with round tables, square, smooth, textured and even a grid with no luck. Clearly a bug 🐛 in the app, pun intended. Very disappointed for a featured app..Version: 1.1.0

FrustratingCute but can’t get it to work. Camera won’t work and it frustrating.Version: 3.2.0

This game scared my daughterThis game is not good for children, it scares my daughter she can’t sleep for a whole week..Version: 5.0.0

Wish there was a no AR optionYou have to hold the camera pointed down at a flat surface for it to work. For an iPad that means holding it up in the air while you play and it's too heavy to do that comfortably for long. Perhaps it works better on a phone..Version: 3.1.0

Very darkWhile it does work a lot of light is required as the camera is very dark and I have not found a way to change it..Version: 1.1.0

Update needed!Please update your app to support newest phones!.Version: 5.0.0

Not worth the moneyLiterally feed the caterpillar over and over again. Thats it. No story, no interaction, no nothing. Just tap anywhere and watch the thing eat..Version: 3.2.0

Why can’t I down load to iPad miniI love this, but as a teacher want it on the children’s iPads which are mini. It cannot he downloaded to them though. Why?.Version: 5.0.0

DisappointedSorry. It’s slow, little to do and such a disappointment. No story line, no objective and no directions. I bought the two game pac and wish I could get my money back! I’m a preschool teacher and thought the kids would love it, but looks like I’ll delete it instead!.Version: 1.0.2

Nice when it works...It seems even under the midday sun, there’s apparently not enough light for it to work properly. Worked fine when I first got it, but now it never works..Version: 1.2.1

My screen is black.... update!!!!So, I was excited to play this with my 1.5 year old. I opened the app and all I see is black on my screen. I can hear the serene sound but nothing is appearing in my screen, just pure darkness. I’m not sure what to do... Looks like a great game and I did pay for it I’m also using an iPad... PleaseHelp!!! UPDATE!! I uninstalled and I tried to reinstall and now it’s saying the app isn’t compatible with my IPad Air2!! I want a full refund!!!.Version: 1.0.2

Worst App EverAugmented reality can’t make up for this no point app that’s literally mind numbingly boring. Kids will learn absolutely nothing from this app. But if you want them to space out and lose brain cells, while you do your own thing by all means waste your money on it..Version: 5.0.0

Doesn’t do anythingIt just makes coloured dots on your screen and nothing else. Waste of money, and also takes over the App Store so you can’t use App Store without the story doing a voice over..Version: 1.0.1

WonderingHow do I get my money back?.Version: 1.1.0

Please update!!I agree with others, can’t get past the low light message no matter what. You’ve been saying for weeks there’s an update coming to fix this. But in the meantime, we’ve wasted $3.99..Version: 1.2.1

Rubbish. Glad I didn’t pay for itDoesn’t work at all. The developer’s implementation of AR is obviously broken. Large flat area (entire kitchen floor), most times nothing happens. Brightly lit room, tells you it is too dim. What does it need? A floodlit football pitch? Also not at all clear what you are supposed to do when the tablet pops up at the beginning for initialisation. This is in comparison to many other AR apps I have tried which work absolutely fine and are nowhere near as fussy. I have an iPad Pro 11..Version: 5.0.0

Worst app everCan I give it ZERO stars? It does not work. It does nothing and there are no directions at all. I get a screen that tells me to wave my phone around (I think). Then little colored discs fly around and then the screen turns black and it exits the app. Do yourself a favor and save your $3..Version: 1.0.2

Total crap! Give back my money!It always says there’s not enough light, even I put it directly under the sun. Can I ask for a refund?.Version: 4.0.0

Deceiving money grab, not kids friendlyAfter installing the free app and opening it, first thing is a pop up that says play. Click it, and it launches you back to the app store to the same/similar app, but with $1.99 listing. What? Back to the app, and you’ll find lots of hidden ads/ways for the app to get you back to the app store to buy other apps from the developer. What trick is this? Very deceiving and definitely not for kids..Version: 5.0.0

DisappointingLove the original app, and thought this would be fun, but it never works when I need it for my kids. Not enough light (in daylight or in a store). You have to have a flat surface and be in one stationary position. Not a fan..Version: 4.0.1

Won’t openI tried restarting my new iPhone and updating to most current software: it simply won’t even open..Version: 4.0.0

ProblemsAll I get is the message that there isn't enough light. Turned on lights, went outside... Nothing. Also the camera appears to be capturing a very muddy looking image. This is on an 8+.Version: 1.2.0
