User Reviews

Most reviews praise Osmo Detective Agency as a fun, engaging game for kids with many maps/cases and cross-device play on iPhone and iPad. However, recurring concerns include compatibility with newer iPad models and outdated support, reports that the product may be inactive or require codes, and several bugs (magnifying glass recognition, long load times, progress resets). A few reviewers note updates have fixed many issues, and others want more content to keep kids engaged.

It’s May of 2026, so they have had time to update. That it doesn’t work with 2025 models is a deliberate choice to mislead. FAQs and product listings frequently mention “compatible with most IPad models”; which is a lie. TLDR hasn’t been updated in two years. Doesn’t work with 2025 IPad 11.

We bought this game recently for our child after having 5 or 6 other Osmo products. It seems their company is out of business or something because the games do not work anymore, and you can NOT play them until the company sends you a code via email. So even though we bought a tangible box for this game and needed to just download the app to connect, the product does not work. Take this company off your App Store. Their products are no longer active.
