this companys horrible. i love the concept, past the general idea its ridiculous. i spent weeks goin back & forth with "support" tryin to get a basic question answered & after 8 exchanges i gave up & cancelled. exact same question. worded 8 different ways & they still couldn't comprehend what "how do i access my account" means. apparently thats just to difficult for them to grasp. there is no way to SEE ur account. there is a kids play part & thats it. not enough space on review for full review.

UPD: I have sent you an email two weeks ago but no response on the email mentioned below. toy should check it. it has zeroed all the progress and asked to sign in again as if there were no everyday sessions with the app. Demotivated my son. Although when they ask for an email it should see that it is an annual subscriber. No?

Nothing but a cash grab from parents. yet another kid learning game stuck behind a 15+ dollar a month subscription. DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY! better free apps exist on the playstore.

Hello! Thank you for writing to us. While it's true that practicing English with Buddy isn't free, it's still cheaper than several lessons with a real-life tutor and you can practice with Buddy any time and anywhere. Maybe you should reconsider? 😊 Have a great day! Buddy.ai team
