Absolutely LOVE the app but wish it saved your place instead of having to remember where you were each time.

We love Majesty Music and Patch the Pirate. My youngest son was excited to learn of the patch app. We have bought almost all of the adventures except the last few, so this seemed like a great way to have them all in one place and to hear the new ones. The app is easy to use and easy to navigate. The search seems to work really well; however, I really would like to see some improvements. 1) To be able to download the music and stories. I prefer to download stuff so I don’t have to use cell data. Also, the app seems to have almost no buffer in the streaming so if we don’t have a strong signal the music or story pauses. We also were at a place were the cell coverage was low and couldn’t get it to start until after we drove a couple of minutes. 2) It would be nice if it saved your place. My son often listens to things on the way to and from school. Since the app does not keep our place we have to search for where we were at. 3) The App doesn’t give a clue as to how to sign up. I also felt the information on the website was very vague. 4). There seems to not be an easy way to reach out to the app support. The link doesn’t connect. When these things are improved, I’ll be happy to change my rating to 5-stars.

Our family has loved Capn Patch for a long many years, and for $6.99 a month, I was thrilled to subscribe. No keeping up with or swapping out CDs! But we have an issue with the track skipping and not playing through to the end. Tapping each track seems to cause it to play through to the end, but it does not help it to roll smoothly to the next. (I bought an electronic download of one of the adventures, and we have to manually click each track on it too.) I think the app would be near perfect if that were fixed. (Perhaps it’s just user error!!!) We continue to listen and have one of the kids man the app. Keep plugging away at the issues, y’all, because this world sure needs Capn Patch and his friends!
