Influential London newspaper ranks Hong Kong-developed apps among the top 10
21 February 2011
On 19 February, UK newspaper The Sunday Times selected the Kidztory series of apps as one of their top 10 recommended apps for children.
This is what they had to say about the popular series of storybook apps created by Hong Kong creative specialist, Stepworks.
This series of classic children’s parables scores by keeping it simple. Poke a character or object and it usually obliges with a cute noise or a basic but charming animation. The stories themselves can be either read out loud from text or accompanied by a pre-recorded voice-over from — delightfully — a young child (she reads passionately without sounding too precocious). Instead of pandering to parents, the series engages kids at their level. – The Sunday Times
The entire collection of Kidztory Classic apps currently occupies the top 50 book apps rankings in the UK app store.
