Ratings and reviews

I have tried multiple times to get this installed on my daughter's phone, so that she can talk to her teammates. It hasn't worked yet, even after I I was charged 50 cents 2 different times, trying to get this fixed. Needs some work!

I can not sign my child up for an account, despite paying the "micro-transaction" (which none of his teachers knew anything about). I already paid the fee, yet the app wants me to confirm again by paying the fee, again.

I am trying to set up supervision to my son's account. I've created the access code on my phone. It is a mix of letters and digits for the two parts. When I go to my son's phone to enter it, the first box says digits and doesn't allow me to enter any letters.
