The light falls through these openings and makes those headlights light up. Both of the metalic windows need to be touched on both sides in order to connect to the screen. That way, the whole concept shows 2 technical weak points: The contact or connection can either be lost underneath the car but also on the sides by the windows due to the protection film or uneven contacts.

AppMates: Disney toys turn iPad into a racetrack - CNET

My daughter really likes Hook, who obviously brings along the tow-hook with him, with which you can tow all the other cars to, to help them. The free Lightning McQueen and the digital toy car both get steered with two fingers, which you place on the sides of the car. As soon as the second finger touches the screen, the cars drive off. To break and slow down, you release both fingers of the car. At least the acceleration and breaking of the cars is easy.

The steering of the cars however, is a bit different. See what's streaming, limit strong violence or language, and find picks your kids will love with Common Sense Media Plus.

The app is easy to learn and has a tutorial the first time you play. However, it can be tricky for younger kids to remember to keep the car in the center of the screen, where it works best. Also, when using the physical toys, sometimes the connection is weak, which means the iPad will not detect the car and nothing moves. The cars can be driven into objects like crates or cactuses that will smash apart.

Also, one of the gadgets that can be acquired is a pair of wings with rockets, allowing the player to fire rockets that explode. However, these do not harm other character vehicles.



It can work without them, but is a much more interactive experience with the toys. In the game, there is an info screen showing the various toys available and marking which ones have been "collected.

There is also a link to other apps by the developers. The app can be played without them, but loses some of the interactivity. While there are no in-app purchases, parents should be aware that the Disney Cars theme means that the app is linked to a lot of other merchandise, and there are links in the game to other Disney Mobile apps. There is some cartoon violence as the cars can be driven into structures and objects that crash, but there isn't other violence involving the cars themselves. Add your rating See all 1 parent review.

The app allows kids to drive around the fictional town of Radiator Springs, participating in races and doing short "missions" for some of the other characters in town.

Winning races and completing missions earns hubcaps, which can then be spent on buying things like new tires, horns, and accessories for the cars. Although the app can be played without the toys using a "paper toy" version of Lightning McQueen, it really shines when paired with the toys. They are placed on the iPad screen, and the landscape moves beneath the toys, making it feel like the toy car is really in the world.

The onscreen graphics and sounds coordinate with the toy with great results. The only problem is that sometimes if the connection is weak then the iPad doesn't detect the toy, which breaks the spell as you try to get the connection back.
