WHY SHOULD YOU TRUST SPEECH BLUBS?
Jennifer Marron, B.S., SLP-A

SCIENTIFICALLY-PROVEN LEARNING TECHNIQUES
In a recent study published by the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association (ASHA), UCLA researchers proved that watching peers in real-time results in MIRROR NEURONS being activated, which has been shown to be highly effective in speech development. Speech Blubs uses video modeling to create an immersive learning environment that allows individuals to observe their in-app actors on video as they learn.

I signed up for the 7 day free trial and decided I wanted to pay for lifetime as that was an option. The app wouldn't let me pay.I uninstalled it and reinstalled the app. It took me to a monthly payment screen and wouldn't allow me to do lifetime. It automatically signed me up for monthly. I went into subscriptions to get lifetime, wouldn't you know it says to manage that in the app. It's definitely not in the app. I went to the main website and can't find it at all. I just want to cancel now.

This app costs too much, I'll probably cancel it after the first year unless they add a bunch more "Build A Sentence". It took many tries for my sons to be interested in trying to repeat the words, but now they do. In the activities where the kids are teaching a new word, it would be great if they added a picture of the word in the corner of the screen while the kids say it. Otherwise they hear the word pronunciation over and over without necessarily getting the association to the meaning.

NOT A FREE APP! They reel you in with a free download but after getting personal info they THEN sell you (monthly subscription) the app before you can actually use it. His speech therapist has it. The mechanics are fun and interactive. My non-verbal toddler showed interest and even smiled for it. However our budget is just too tight to be able to afford this.

This app claims you can cancel at any time but that is in fact false. I tried to cancel before the 7 free trail date was up and it wouldn't let me. Instead it went ahead and charged my bank account, and it didn't even charge me the monthly! It charged me the yearly subscription which is $64 and now it won't let me cancel for a whole year! I don't want this app I didn't like this app and neither did my child! I just want a refund!

This app is actually pretty amazing. You go through a series of questions so that it can help you focus on studies that your child may need more assistance in. Make sure to answer honestly to get the best help for your child. I also love that it uses other children for all of the different exercises, because here at our home, parents fall onto deaf ears when it comes to teaching. I have learned for my child anyway that she tends to listen and learn more when its coming from a peer.

It's weird. Has unnecessary content. The short video played for the word "car" is a horse and buggy talking about how they didn't have cars back in the old days. The horse then poops and it has sound effects then there is a male groan that's sounds relieved. It's just strange. We did the quiz for his age. He's 18 months A simple video of a car would have been better. Lots of other examples but not enough letters left to type. It's also takes 📸 of them and has a 🎤. I don't like that 🤷♀️

My daughter really enjoyed this app. Recently i was logged off, reasons unknown. After signing back on, all my daughters achievements were gone and the section she played the most was as well (the only one that held her interest and she constantly returned to). It was just there two days ago! She really enjoyed doing the puzzles and the itsy bitsy spider. Sadly, we already paid for the year subscription (only option given, so beware)

This app keeps crashing and never works it just loading and loading, and nothing happens. Got the subscription to use with my boys as a supplemental help for them besides the weekly speech therapy, but it was a waste of money cause it rarely works. Also, everytime you open the app in a different tablet or phone it restarts over because it doesn't save your progress even though you have an account and log in to to be able to use it.

Not that great. Plus they make it near impossible to cancel before the free trial ends to avoid being charged. None of the cancellation methods on their support page works. Sent 3 messages 24-72 hours before the free trial expired and have yet to receive a reply beyond a form email stating that they'll *try* to respond within 48 hours. Don't download this app. It's a total trap.

Worst customer service. I am so frustrated. I did the 7 day free trial back in March. I tried cancelling, but I was already charged. In my process of trying to cancel I inadvertently deactivated my account. Well, I was charged the $59.99 and have NO access to the app for my child to try and use since I have already paid. I have sent 2 separate emails to either get a refund or be granted access to the site and all I get is a run around.

This app is amazing. My child (now 2) loves it to bits. It really helps with speech development. We also love the games! My child is doing amazing with counting thanks to the number games! The only reason I give ot four stars is because it can be glitchy at times and you have to restart the app multiple times. But other than that, this app is amazing!

Not a terrible app but flawed. My granddaughter and I would play for about 15 minutes but still be told we didn't reach the goal of playing ten minutes. There were times, not often, where there was no sound. Also we would play game after game and still not be able to, "pop stars", as an award for completing exercises. You're supposed to be awarded after completing two exercises. However, this app captured her attention and she loved taking pictures. I thought, however, the app was a bit pricey.

Trying to decline the subscription during free trial. The app states you need to visit the play store to change your subscription, but there is nothing there. I went to the website and also couldn't find anywhere to cancel. I sent an email and the response said that they will review and get back to me in 48 hours. HOWEVER, due to high volumes they might not respond for up to a week. Not looking forward to having to fight for a refund when they draft out a fee for a subscription that I don't want

Kind of cute, it's really just videos of kids repeating themselves. The other things that go along with those videos are strange and confusing little clips that don't really teach anything, some if which say things I don't want my two year old repeating. Definitely a waste of $9.99 especially considering I was trying to sign up for the free trial and got charged anyway!

The majority of the app's features caused the app to crash and close. There were only 2 sounds videos in a few categories. The content that was there was incredibly slow to load. My 2 year old isn't going to wait 3 minutes for a 15-20 second video. Many times that micro video stopped to reload. The feature of your child using the front facing camera along with the video on the app wasn't there. All in all, an extreme disappointment.

The concept is great! However, it's not the greatest with animal sounds and the extra video clips of the word are super weird and confusing at times. The girl making that is supposed to be making the horse sound sounds like a donkey which can be VERY confusing. This app does help with some things but confusing sounds and video clips at the same time. Also, a toad is not a frog like in one of the video clips. I could really go on about a lot more but those things mentioned stood out the most.

Good idea, but poor execution. The app constantly shuts down with error messages (more that half the time). My daughter enjoys watching the children speak so I think that aspect is helpful. There seems to be a preoccupation with pooping and farting that I don't enjoy. The volume varies a lot. Some of the children don't make the right sounds for animals or say words strangely. I don't recommend this app because it misbehaves more than it works. I pretty much paid to be annoyed due to the issues.

I did the 7 day free trial for my son so he could know more words. The 7 day free trial was awesome! My son was learning new words, but after a few days after the free trial. Every time I open the app up a static sounds have been happening. You can barely understand anything and when I press on a learning activity like learning numbers. It would have the static sounds also. I have uninstalled the app and reinstalled it. I emailed Speech Blubs contact and emailed them. They contact me in a week

I only have it 2 stars because my daughter does like the app, however the app crashes multiple times throughout the day to the point where I'm uninstalling it over n over just to get it to work. N the app doesn't save anything. You'd think once you sign in the previous information would be saved. I'm not sure what needs to be done but the crashing sucks.

it's really cool and I love how we can individualize it with the kids photos and the games are pretty nice too, and my little guy loves it however, for the amount this app costs a month, it shouldn't lag as much as it does. The mobile ans tablet versions of the app are different and do not register with one another when using, which is really unfortunate. We may be looking for something else if this continues...
