My 8yr old downloaded this app & tried to use it as he thought it was a free trial (December 19th 2019) & he never even used it as its on my phone & he couldn't understand how to use the app anyway. You have then gone on to take 7 further payments off me of £7.49! I couldn't figure out where this missing money was coming from until i contacted my bank then i was able to cancel the subscription. I want a full refund on my money you took from my account. He's never used this & surely you can see??

We're sorry to see this. HOMER Reading is classified as a free app because it is free to download and has a limited free-use option. It is our priority that kids enjoy a safe, ad-free learning environment. So, rather than taking revenue from ads, we charge a low monthly fee. Please reach out to us at support@homerapp.com for assistance information.

You have to setup payment before you can proceed to trial, i wish it had said that before I filled out a user profile. Yes you can cancel your subscription at anytime but I'd rather make my own decision at the end of the trial whether I decide to proceed with entering my payment details. Too often, apps make money because people forget to cancel at the end of trial. If the app is so good, the owners should be confident that people will enter payment details after the trial! UNINSTALLING.

We apologize for any frustration the signup process may have caused. A debit/credit card is required to activate your 30-day free trial to reserve your paid membership. It also allows us to monitor who has had a trial or not, as there is only one trial per member allowed. We hope this information is helpful!

used to be great- haven't been able to open it past the log in loading screen for the last at least 6-9months on neither of my two kids tablets. today I finally decided to try harder because I now have a second preschooler, went thru all the fixings read online, clear catch, data, storage, permissions from family link, reset etc, everything possible, 2 hrs later nothing. I then decided to download on my personal phone and same issue so its not just my kids tablets its everywhere. Canceling.
