I bought the app twice and the locked letters didnt load. Has this happened to anyone?

My kid was done with this game in two minutes. Not worth $2!!
Some qualifiers: We have many of the "My First Puzzles" apps and love them. Our account is password protected so you have to enter the password (that is too complicated for our 3yr old) for any app purchase or update. I downloaded this particular app "Alphabet" for free today for my 3yr old to play. While sitting with her and watching over her shoulder she completed all the letters of the puzzle. It had A, B, C, H, I, J, N, O, P, U, V, and W as individual puzzles and then grouped puzzles for DEFG, KLM, QRST, and XYZ. So a total of 16 puzzles. She completed them all immediately. While monitoring her every move it never once asked to purchase any additional puzzles or add-ons. When she finished the puzzle I even went to "more games" to see what others she would like for free. When I clicked on others it took me straight to the app store (without a charge). An hour later I noticed a charge to our online banking. After double checking the apps I had purchased today I called the "App Store Representative" to find what this charge was from. 40 minutes later and her showing me how to find where the charge came from, it came do to "an in-app purchase". The actual app was free but there was an "in-app purchase" from the app. I would have to contact the app developer. When going back to the app description to find contact info it was then I read the reviews. That was my fault in not researching it, but weve always had great success with the other "My First Puzzles". I also noticed in reading the App information more closely I found a section labeled "Top In-App Purchases" that read "1 pack of 12 additional puzzles for $1.99." We never recieved additional puzzles so I guess it meant we were charged for the puzzles she played within the "free" app. So the $2.18 charge I am stuck with however it was not alerted in any way during the game play. However in talking with the App Store Representative I learned how to block future "in-app purchases." If you do not know how to do that, here are the steps: 1) Go to Settings 2) Click on General 3) Click on Restrictions 4) Enter your 4-digit passcode 5) Scroll down to "Allowed Content" section and change the setting for "In-App Purchases" to OFF. The reason Im giving it 1 star is because it was purchased as a free app but had a hidden built in charge. I like the app, not the dishonesty!
My children liked this app so we paid to have all the puzzles unlocked and as soon as we plugged back into our computer it updated it back to the free version. Now we cant play the puzzles unless we pay for it again. I was charged and have the reciept to prove it, but cant get the puzzles back? So I would just be careful paying for this ones add-ons.
A true ripoff. The "free" is for 4 letters. The game then says you can unlock more for &1.99. It makes you think its the rest of the alphabet. What you get for $2 are 4 more letters only! So for $13.00 you get a very basic, boring alphabet puzzle. Im going to delete it.
For $2 you only get 12 letters? So...my kid only learns part of the Alphabet? I want my money back.
My son love this game so I purchase it for my ipad which shares the same account as my phone. But I have to pay again for my phone!!!! Thats so lame!!! All the other games can be shared on both devices.
My daughter loves the app! I just wish there was a way to lock the language. We are trying to teach her just one alphabet at the moment!
I paid for the full version on my iPhone, but its not communicating that to my iPad. My son LOVES this app, so Ill give it five stars when I can get it to load on my iPad without paying again.
If you unlock this app, it will not transfer that purchase to your other devices.
I bought this app in my iPad and it does not get synced with my iPhone. My iphone app is locked and when try to unlock it asks for me to buy again with same account. This is ridiculous. If this is a mistake from developer then please fix this.
My preschooler loves this game. I bought it for him because he can play in multiple languages. I like that he can switch languages and play the same game. However I wish each language had more than 12 puzzles. I realize there are 12 puzzles repeated in 6 languages, but compared to other kids apps Ive purchased- including this developers own other apps- I dont think its as good a value. Also, I would like it to load each time in the last language played. Instead it defaults to English each time we open the game.
After purchasing off of my iPhone I wasnt able to have the full version of the ap on my iPad further when getting a new phone the paid content still wasnt restored! Also not a good value for the money with everything being duplicated !!!
I paid for the full app but it wont load on both my iPhone and my iPad. Its not really that good of a game anyways. I would not recommend this app.
Good
