Just Grandma and Me

The interactive version was better!

Read me

Ever since upgrading to a new iPhone without a home button, there’s no easy way to exit the app. In fact, it will trap you in unless you restart your phone. The only reason I chose to write this review was it was a reason to leave the screen without having the hassle of restarting my phone 🤣 once they catch up with technology again, it will get 5 stars.

I’m a grandpa and a speech pathologist. My grandchildren 4 and 3 years of age love these stories. I do too!

This is not like that at all. The voice is different and there is zero animation. No interaction at, save for teaching vocabulary. Very sad and disappointed.

The price for the book is okay. However, once exposed to the original and how fabulous the interactive component was, it is disappointing that with IT such as it is, it is not available. I would have easily paid $14.99 + for it, and so would many others! You would see generations purchasing this! Now, if we can just encourage Apple to quit with their incessant upgrades!!!

Doesn't have the sound effects like on the computer version from the 90s. Can't click on things in the book and doesn't make sounds. I wish I could get my money back.

I agree with the other reviewers in that this version pales in comparison to the one we used to run on our Mac. There are some nice reading aids, but it is not nearly as interactive as the original.

If you are disappointed in this App because it is not like the original computer version you should check out all the Wanderful interactive storybooks! These are the original Living Books brought back for the iPad. You will love them!!

I do not like this version of Just Grandma And Me at all!!! We bought the computer version many years ago for a child that was like a grandchild to us. We now have our own grandchildren and have been using the computer version with our granddaughter. I thought it would be nice to sit on the couch with her and let her touch the screen on my ipad and she could make the birds sing or the cow moo as many times as she wanted to!!! But not with this version! I'm not even going to let her know that I have it on my ipad! It's just like a story book.....all still pictures.....you can't interact with the story at all! I'm very much disappointed and would not have made the purchase if I had know! I don't guess we can get a refund????
