I love this app! Such a great resource for English tutoring. I can also assign my students an account each (from my main account) for Twinkl Originals and it's as if they have their own library at home. Big thanks to the Twinkl team! I noticed that the story selection and other features are much more extensive and frequently updated on Apple iOS than on Android (which I'm currently using). Is there any way to get an update on Android OS as well? That would be lovely. Thank you so much!

App isn't updated with any new books unfortunately. The iOS version seems to get regular updates and this one has had none for a year. My son wishes to read more stories independently but can't access them due to this. Please prioritise catching this version up to the iOS version and then I can rate it much higher. Edited: Increased review as many more books available now.

These are really cute books and my littles enjoy them. It would be even greater if there were a couple more books they coukd listen to, but it is good content nonetheless.
