I bought this tablet for my 2-year-old who is transitioning into a toddler bed. My 6-year-old lays down with her tablet an hour before bedtime and I thought it would make it fair for the toddler to have one.
From the start, i had difficulty getting it to come on and booting up properly. Then I had a hard time just swiping the screen on. My toddler can almost never get the screen on which results in meltdowns.
It’s extremely delayed when you tap on the screen icons or select videos which results in more meltdowns from the toddler. Multiple times I’ve tried to log in for parental controls and it won’t accept my password. (I will type in the exact password four or five times before it finally accepts it.) I have the parental control to lock the tablet up between 10:00 p.m. and 7:00 a.m. but at 8:00 in the morning it won’t let me turn it on because it says it’s still bedtime. Random times throughout the day it will lock up and I will have to fight with my password to unlock this stupid device. I wish I had not wasted the money. It’s much more hassle than it’s worth for me.
Update: we’ve had this tablet for about 6 months now. A couple of months ago began rebooting on its own throughout the day. It’s become progressively more difficult to get off of the lock screen and now you can’t get it off at all. If you do manage to somehow get it off lock screen you can’t click on anything on the home screen. The touch screen is basically shot. I would blame it on the kid but I have been having problems with it since we opened it out of the box.
A few months ago it started losing battery power. A battery used to last about a day and a half from a full charge to dead. For about the last month, it’ll last about 6 hours from a full charge. But now it don’t matter cuz it just don’t work. I will never buy this brand again.
My friend who also watches my kid got an identical one for over at her house and within a month was having the same issues.
