Latest reviews of A Jazzy Day - Music Education app for iPhone and iPad

Informative basic app, not worth $3
This is a good app for introducing kids probably between 4-8 to the instruments and their sounds. The story is nice and well animated but short. The app is a nice start but not worth the $3 due to the simplicity of the app. More functionality would make this app better and worth the price.
A jazzy day
This is a great app. I have been using it with my primary students. High quality music and information!
Great idea but no russian language
Please add russian to this app! Nice pictures, great idea but my kid doesnt understand anything
So sad it doesnt work well
This looks like such a great book/ap unfortunately several of the pages do not work - no volume on the instruments and no reading the words. My little boy and I were so frustrated and disappointed. Hope they figure out the problems because this would have been a favorite for sure. Very upset to have paid so much for something we cant use.
Great intro for kids!
I love how much info is packed into this wonderful book. My kids thought it was as fun as any game app and they learned a lot about the instruments. Love it!
