Pros and cons of The Lion King: Timon's Tale app for iPhone and iPad

The Lion King: Timon's Tale app good for

Great for fans of the story/movie. Animated scenes and interactive elements. Does crash sometimes so would be great to have this fixed. A game would be great too for those wanting more interaction with the characters/story.
My three children (2, 5 and 7 year old) love this app. They play it over and over. There favourite part is where they roar and it is recorded and then played back in the story.
...but the reading mode doesnt work. I think it should be implemented. I would like to be reimboursed. I am sorry, but this app doesnt worth almost 4€!

Some bad moments

Please fix this problem my child loves this app but she can only get past a few scenes before it finally crashes. If this gets fixed I will give it 5 stars.
This book has very little interaction and is not worth paying any amount of money for, let alone $4.99. Total rip off, dont buy.
This app is broken -- the sound is missing. You see scenes moving on the screen with no sound or music. Waste of money until they fix it.
"Read to me" function inoperable since iOS update. Also, touch commands are at times unresponsive and the app overall is difficult/confusing to navigate. Expected a more polished product from Disney to say the least. Very disappointing.
My girls love the lion king so when I heard about this app I downloaded it the day it came out...I was so disappointed. I started to write a horrible review but thought I would wait a while & see how my girls like it after a while. The verdict...disappointed. My girls never play it & now I wish I didnt even purchase it. I have most of the disney ineractive books & my girls love the puzzles & the coloring. Well there isnt any of that on this. And my 2 year old can usually figure things out pretty quickly when it comes to these disney games this one she has no clue what to do. They have both played this maybe twice & have never played it again. Which is disappointing because they absolutly love lion king.
This is my favorite app from all of my apps. Im 9 years old and I like this app. Im to In love with the lion king. Im going to tell you what I have from the lion king. I got all the new lion king toys, I have the glasses, the bag , the cap, all the movies, Ive drawin drawing of the characters, and I might even get the snow globe and the shirt soon. PS: I bought all of my lion king toys.
