When I grow Up App

Post by crazygurl14 »

I just downloaded the app. The first thing is that I'm pretty sure its meant for something like an Ipad because on my small itouch the writing is very small and cannot be seen very well. But it has the story where Al reads or or you can read it. And in Al fashion there are many little things within it that you have to tap around to find. There are a few silly little games nothing too exciting( tarantula shaver, gorilla messus, snail race) and if you tap and tilt the device things will move around and make noises. One page at the end where Billy is drinking his juice you tap on the table and it goes- eat it lol. But other than a few things there is not much to it. At the end it has link to weirdal.com, and all the other places associated with the book(harper collins etc) and you can make the picture of Al riding the little bike go back and forth. Not sure if this was worth $3 but then again its Weird Al and i buy anything with him. Is anyone else going to buy this, have you already bought this, what do you think of it?

The price is too much for me for what it is. If it was a buck I'd pop, but not for 3

It's only 3 bucks. That's less than a milkshake. If I had an iDevice, I would buy it. Sounds pretty neat.

No iDevice and even if I had one I have no real reason to buy it especially for $3..

I had $5 left on an itunes card i traded with my sister so i thought why not give it a try. It said that the introductory price is that much so it will probably go up soon. But still not 100% satified with it.

But then again maybe it is meant for little kids since the book is for kids

I don't have an iDevice, and even if I did, I wouldn't pay that much for an app. Heck, I wouldn't pay one dollar unless it was a really awesome app.
How old was that last signature? I mean, really?

I usually dont pay for apps unless i really, really like them. And even then i usually dont buy anything more than 99 cents, but i figured I'd give it a shot

Can I just say, I'm 17 and I REALLY enjoy this app on my iPad. All the surprises are in there for the hardcore fan that might be using it. Some you really have to hunt for, but it's worth every chuckle you can get. I think it's totally worth the $3.

I hope its updated for regular itouches. The writing is very small and a bit hard to read. And once i figured out how to make the special things happen i was tapping all over each screen trying to find what it does.

I'm 21 and i liked it :P Need to try it out on my little daughter and see what she thinks... she will probably just try to throw it ;)

If you didn't want to shell out 3 bucks for the app, it's on sale this week for $1.99. :)
