Not suitable for early years
I tried this app out as I’m a big twinkl fan. It says it will customise for age, but I selected four years old and the resulting animation had huge amounts of complex text to read. Also the actual AR creatures float in mid air and are humongous. My red squirrel was bigger than my sofa and floating above my head despite me directing the camera at the floor.
Developer Response ,
Dear katyPic78,
We are really sorry to hear about your concerns with the app.
Regarding the content for EYFS children this is something we are currently working on and will update the content as soon as possible. Currently it is more suited to KS1 or KS2 children.
Regarding the placement of models, there are a few things you can do to fix this:
Firstly before you load the model, there is an option to set its default size. If you set this to 'small' that will likely help.
Second when your are in your AR Session you can scale the model yourself using a Pinch Gesture to any size which suits your environment.
In regard to the model floating, this is likely caused my the device having issues detecting a surface with suitable detail for plane detection. Unfortunately at this stage this is something which is out of hands as this feature is a 3rd Party API.
If you have any further issues please contact us at apps@twinkl.co.uk and we will be happy to assist you further.
