Ratings and reviews

My child loves Elmo and loves the video calls! Definitely worth paying a little extra for more calls. I do wish the end call button could have a setting to toggle on and off from the call screen. That way small kids don't hang up right away as they tend to hold phones from the bottom and their thumbs hang up the calls easily.

Overall good but one annoying bug has persisted for years. The screen does not stay on while the calls are playing back. Most apps that play video will prevent the screen from sleeping but not this app. I have to consistently tap the screen to keep it awake or else playback stops. Feels like it could be an easy fix...

I downloaded the app and purchased all the calls but since the recent update to my Pixel the app has been crashing. I uninstalled and reinstalled but it still crashes and I can't access the calls I purchased. It's a cool app but I'm frustrated with the errors it's having. Hopefully an update or fix will be released soon otherwise I'll have to request a refund.
