User Reviews

Reviewers consistently praise Elmo Calls as fun and engaging for young children, with multiple comments about laughter and joy. The main recurring drawback across several reviews is trouble with restoring purchases across devices, suggesting a need for better in-app purchase handling. Some mentions of reliability and updates exist, but overall the app remains popular for ages 1–5.

Pros

Kids love getting Elmo calls and find it very entertaining for preschoolers.
The calls bring lots of laughter and joy to kids and families.
Great for children ages 1–5 and even for daycare or group time.
Family-friendly content that keeps siblings and grandparents engaged.

Cons

In-app purchases and content packs do not reliably restore across devices, often requiring repurchase.

Something unexpected and extremely disturbing occurred. After a few seconds of Elmo talking, I heard a sexually explicit sound (like moaning) over Elmo’s voice. I thought I was overthinking it questioning myself. I then heard it again... I called Apple Support. They were very empathetic with the situation and were also shocked. Unfortunately, they cannot do much because they are a third party. They documented what occurred and are escalating. We are in process of reaching out to Sesame Street Workshop to notify them of this as well.
