Khan Academy Kids: Learning! for Negative User Reviews
✓ I get the same lesson over and over again :-:So I got this app and I enjoyed it but then I kept on getting the same lesson! It’s very annoying and now I don’t play it much pls fix this problem -_- and I also get the same options of prizes over and over again which makes me mad a bit and pls add more stories and more activities ._. mk yea that’s all I have to say.Version: 4.0.4
✓ Needs child lockGreat games but frustrating if you have smaller kids, no child lock means they are constantly jumping off the app by accident and can’t leave my son to play while I get jobs done without coming back every 30 seconds to put it back on the app only kids app I have seen with no child lock on the app, also if they touch the screen during the instructions it restarts the instructions which really frustrating trying to get a kid to listen to the instructions for a tenth time in a row while pinning there arms down because they are wanting to play the game and keep touching the screen restarting the instructions which is annoying when they have almost finished them then start over.Version: 4.3
✓ ErrrSo like when Installed it I was like “Eh I think this might be British CUZ I AM BRITISH”but I was wrong so like.. when I chose age 7 It was like 2nd grade *what the earth does 2nd grade meAn*LIKE IM A KID and the questions were way to eazy and in British I’m in year 3 BUUT.I’m adding another star because it can be a good game for children in *aMeRiCa* OOF back down cuz sound is annoying. Go use reading plus or tt rock stars or smt.Version: 5.1.4
✓ Too old for my kidDon’t give me wrong it’s a great app but my 10-year-old daughter is zooming through it really fast and it’s just too easy for her definitely for younger kids.Version: 6.1.2
✓ Amazing app but the baby voices make it unbearableI’ve installed this app a few times now and each time I delete because the character voices are so condescending and babyish that my children are embarrassed to use it in front of their older siblings. Please consider using more mature voices. Otherwise I really love the app..Version: 6.0.5
✓ Not well doneApp is confusing and buggy. An example of confusion: they used an existing YT video where bears roll off the bed, and the kid is supposed to count the number of bears. Khan lazily fast forwards the video. So it starts out with “10 bears” but the video is FF, and you hear “1 fell out” but there are now 6 bears left. So the kid may think “10 - 1 is 9” and chooses 9 (which is an option!) and now the kid it confused. Another example is when dragging and dropping in boxes. PBS Kids is liberal with this. Khan seems to require exactness and if the center of mass of the object isn’t inside the square, it tells the kid they are wrong. It is buggy mostly in that it requires an internet connection. There have been login issues (why do you need to log in? Why? There is no rationale I can think of. I thought Khan was a nonprofit?). When switching between modes like reading and logic it has to wait for a server response or something. Why have an app? The point of apps was to take advantage of the mobile device. Instead this is just a web site masquerading as an app. I feel ultimately the app developers and PMs just didn’t do well here. Instead of creating a bunch of mediocre activities in a mediocre “app” they should have built a great app experience with excellent content and added more excellent content every week or two..Version: 1.0
✓ Can’t change child’s gradeThe grade 1 content is too easy for my child so I wanted grade 2 level tasks but I am not able to change my child’s year level. I also can’t find a way to delete my account to set it up again so I will probably have to delete the app and won’t be able to redownload it because it just going to ask me to sign in and I’m back to the same situation. Need to have an account delete option or the ability to changechildren’s grade. Thanks.Version: 5.1.4
✓ About kodi h the main characterHe’s too annoying. He’s the most annoying thing in the whole entire whole entire whole entire world. You should never put him in the main character ever again. I hate him. He’s so annoying he keeps telling us too much stuff to do..Version: 6.1.2
✓ Ask a grown up to check your internetConstantly get a message to check out internet on using both the WiFi and mobile network, then closes the app. Useless I struggled to even get my email address in without the message coming up. Nothing is wrong with our networks..Version: 2.0.1
✓ GreatMy 8 year old is starting to use the khan for older kids, but he really enjoyed this one.Version: 5.1.9
✓ More parental restrictions pleaseI noticed that new features to restrict buttons were added over the years such as turning off the library buttons and videos and play, but little is done to restrict a child from playing an activity over and over and over. My child has a special interest in letters, but he is way beyond letters. I give him the app, that is all he will do unless I guided access block areas of the screen to deny him from endlessly repeating the same activities over and over. The result is, the guided access screen area restrict ions are cover half the screen where he can’t play any activities at all. Suggestions before I can give a 5 star: put the grade level restriction tab in the parents menu rather than where kids can have access. Allow me to turn off all tabs individually from the parent menus. Remove letter books from the books tab, they belong in the letters tab. Also, improve the parent access prompts beyond just swipe up and down, because kiddos can read. Parent access prompts such as single digit and double digit multiplication options work well at blocking my kiddo in his other apps. Also, don’t prompt for parents birth year, there was a 1:10 chance of my kiddo guessing an appropriate birth year and now he puts 1969 in all similar prompts. I love this app, but without certain modifications, it become completely useless..Version: 6.0.4
✓ Password keeps resettingMy password keeps resetting. Yes I find it annoying to reset my password every time my child goes on to play. Is this part of how the app works or is it fault on my side?.Version: 4.0.5
✓ Hold on …Ok, you’ve heard what the parents think, but how about the kids? Well, I’m a kid! Ok, it’s a okay app but I have a few small and big complaints. I’m not against the learning, I’m against the to easy content. I’d also like to touch up this problem, you do this for little kids to second grade. You don’t do older kids. You’re teaching to easy things by the way. You’re explaining it well though! This is a good app it just needs more kid loved content. How about adding this app up to fourth grade? Please stop the block cubits. It’s really not a life skill. Try multiplication and division, those are everyday skills a kid needs. Try multi-digit addition and subtraction. Maybe even three digit. Don’t acknowledge small math. Don’t show pictures of things and ask the kid doing the activity what the object is. They will not learn how to spell that way, believe me! Tell the kids to write the word they hear and not with a word bank. Acknowledge carrying and borrowing. I used to have a teacher who’d mark out problems with carrying and borrowing. Tell them about REAL books. Where has chapter books gone? (That’s for older kids, but Junie B. Jones is a good starter chapter book. Thank you guys in advance, have a wonderful day!.Version: 6.0.4
✓ This is for quizzing…not for learningHaving learned a lot from Kahn Academy over the years, I was excited to learn of Kahn Academy for Kids. The positive points are that the interface is adorable and clearly a lot of effort went into the UI development. However, I wish they had spent as much time planning out the learning as they did the UI. This is not a platform that you would use to TEACH a child skills. This is a platform you would instead use to quiz a child on skills they already learned elsewhere. For example, in an actual snapshot of seconds they show a bunch of animals lined up for ice cream and say, very quickly, “This one is first, this one is second, this one is third, and this one is fourth. Which one is third?” If a child had never before been introduced to the concept of sequencing, then that is definitely not enough of an introduction for the child to answer that question correctly. Lots of tears will be witnessed. Also, I feel there a better job could have been done of assessing a child’s skills at the start. The only thing they ask is age and then they put your child in the “grade” that a typically developing child would be at that age. Not all children are typical, and those of us without typically developing children are looking for extra tools to help us along the way..Version: 6.0.6
✓ Bla-bla-blaIt is an very inappropriate app.Version: 5.1.3
✓ UmmI think khan academy ‘’kid” is ok but I think y’all don’t learn.Version: 4.3
✓ Great but keeps crashingThe app crashes when we try to launch several activities..Version: 3.1.2
✓ Inconsistent and confusing, with unclear instructionsMy child is 3.5, her teachers all whisper to me in hushed tones that she’s smart/gifted, and she can’t follow this app, and tosses the tablet down. The app immediately begins with random activities, without building on basics first. I thought maybe I had waited too long to start my child with a learning app, so I changed her age from 3 down to 2, in case it was a readiness thing. Listening to the activities, I wondered if she would understand how to move objects on the screen, or understand what the instructions were saying. So I went into the menu and changed it to an alphabet activity. I selected the uppercase A one; at first it was asking to pop any bubbles with the letter A in it, praising successes and gently correcting any mishaps. So far so good. Then the second round asked to pop any bubbles with the letter C. ……..what? Let’s master the letter A before we start thinking about any other letters. I will be deleting and trying something else..Version: 5.1.1
✓ Only American accentSeems like a great app and amazing it’s free. But unfortunately its in an American accent that can’t be changed like some other apps.Version: 6.0.4
✓ Update made the app worseBefore the February update the app was working fine. Now it will not start and will not update. This is awful service.Version: 5.1.4
✓ AdviceHow do you change the grade? In this app, mine only allows up to grade 1..Version: 5.1.2
✓ Very nice. More books please.It’s very good and educational! Please if you may more countries to learn about and more books. also books about culture would be really helpful.Version: 5.1.3
✓ Wonderful until it just stopped workingToday the app demanded we update to continue. No update is available for our older devices. It is sad that poorer people are now locked out of an app that was fantastic as was.Version: 5.1.5
