Ratings and reviews

My 2 yr old loves this and loves pretending to answer the phone and talk to elmo. But my god, why make a hang up button at all?? When he's holding it to his ear it hits END CALL every single time. It's unbelievably frustrating for both of us. I no doubt would be buying all the call packs if this wasn't such a big issue. Im going to end up deleting the app which breaks my heart bc my kid loves it but it just causes too much upset because of this USELESS, too-sensitive END CALL BUTTON.

AWFUL. My pre-schooler LOVED this, but it quit working and said it needed an update. It would not install the update, even though there was ample storage. I was then advised to uninstall and reinstall the app. Going on a month now, and it still won't download. I don't have a janky phone either- not that it should matter, but I have a Samsung Galaxy S21, so it's not even like it's outdated or can't handle the load. My girl has been absolutely heartbroken that Elmo doesn't call her anymore.

Purchased the pack for set calls/alarms. When the set time comes the phone says "it's Elmo calling" once and then when we get into the app nothing happens. There is no call about brushing teeth or getting ready for bed as I have set. Also the timers then reset after each one passes, so even it is did work you would have to set it up each day which could be quite frustrating.
