THE STATIC IS NORMAL!!!

The static is normal for any other game, if you go on another game, and put ur ear on the speaker. IT DOES NOT JUST HAPPEN TO ZEPETO! Also they don’t record you so y’all stop saying they do!

Please read!!

I love Zepeto. Three of my other friends have it and we love to use this app daily. I’ve been paranoid lately that Zepeto is tracking me? I also have been worried that Zepeto is accessing my actual photos, which a lot are very personal, and I wouldn’t like a social media app to access. My phone would randomly black out during my Zepeto use. I’ve been hearing rumors that several people are experiencing a white noise, or static noise after installing and playing the app. Many people have even heard breathing voices. Other people have been saying that Zepeto is LISTENING to everything. Me being me— I get scared very easily by these things- I freaked out and immediately deleted Zepeto. I am very sad that I did, I LOVED Zepeto, but I didn’t want to take any risks. Ever since my friend downloaded Zepeto she has had bad WiFi, and her mom said that someone that they didn’t know has been accessing their WiFi. I wound up crying, I got really scared that something bad would happen. I worry about child predators, and am scared that someone a little too nice could be just that. Thank you for your time and consideration. I’m sorry to be like this, I’m just worried about me and my friends safety. Have a wonderful day.

Edit:

My (other)friend tested the static theory and it is true!! It sounds like the static from an old tv!!! We all are really freaked out now!!!

Hello 😜😜😁🤣, We can understand your concerns. Our user's safety is our top priority to keep ZEPETO a safe community. There have been false information about ZEPETO and they are not true. ZEPETO will always ask the user's permission to access the in-app microphone and camera. The static you were referring to isn't ZEPETO tracking you. When a user records with the in-app camera, it will record the ambient noise in the background of what was recorded. If you want to change ZEPETO's settings, you can take away microphone and camera permissions in the settings menu. ZEPETO is meant to be a safe place for creativity and fun. ZEPETO does not have access to any of the user's personal information nor is it tracking our users. We have Community Guidelines in place, that if someone were to violate them their accounts would be disabled and not allowed to create another one. We want to keep ZEPETO fun and safe, if you have any other concerns please feel free to reach out to us! :)

Diamonds

I swear the wins for diamonds are rigged... everyday I do quests and I watch ads to flip the cards.. and the diamonds are ALWAYS at the bottom two.. and I mean ALWAYS so I decide to click the bottom two but when I click it the diamonds literally change cards next what I choose.. eg
🟡💎💎 that’s what is always is then I choose the middle and it does this 💎🟡💎
.... please is this just normal or are you really not giving us diamonds!?!?!

Update

On the “Today” menu I try to create a about me thingy that’s on their and the app doesn’t let me click on the emojis for it and I tried turning off my phone, logging out and logging back in and I tried deleting the app and re-downloading it so I’m just confused on what to do for it and for the blocking can you make it to where if someone blocks another person then the person that’s blocked won’t be able to see the other person’s profile or contact them because there’s some people who have cyber bullied me on other apps that has ZEPETO and I don’t want to delete the app because of them and another thing is I whenever there was the Cartoon Network contest the Cartoon Network clothing and accessories never appeared in my store and it really confused me on why it wasn’t there I also feel like new clothes come way too fast because whenever I finally get enough coins to buy one of the new outfits I been wanting on there there’s already new outfits out it takes at least 2-3 days for me to get enough coins by using the quests, daily coins, and lucky but overall I really enjoy playing it it’s a lot of fun I really like that we can add posts and tag our friends on there now but I wanted to bring this up and let you guys know and I hope you guys the ZEPETO team as a good day or night!!

Hello Pikachugirl22, Thank you for taking the time to give us such detailed feedback. The developers are glad you are having fun. :) Currently, not all emojis are supported for the bio section on the profile page yet. You can add a smile emoji and we are working on adding the rest in the future. Right now our blocking system does need a bit of work. But if you wanted to block a user you can go to their Profile → Message -. Details. In this section you can take off their notifications and block them. If you find that they are still contacting you to report each account. To report a user go to their page, in the upper-righthand corner and select the 3 dots. In there you can report the user and add details. Also, if items were loading in the store, we recommend connecting your device to a strong internet connection and making sure that your ZEPETO application is up to date. We are also looking for more fun ways to add in minigames so earning coins isn't a long process. We are glad you are able to express yourself and make friends in ZEPETO! Please stay tuned for future updates! We cant wait for more feedback. :) Have a good day!

Before you get this

1. The white noise only happens because the game has no sound, you do not need to worry about being recorded
2. Crashes a lot tho
3. Some features need you to pay actually money for (characters slots, zems, etc.)
4. Not to many adds, witch I LOVE
5. Constantly being updated and the clothes are all really pretty

Honestly

Here is an honest review you’re thinking of getting this app. I rlly like this it’s super fun and a great way to get pictures with friends and it’s super customizable!. Although there is a static sound it’s only bc there is a video and mic option so you can take videos with your little person. Over all the app is perfectly safe for you to use and play around on and I definitely recommend trying it out and if you don’t end up liking it to just delete it. Hope this helped!:)

My Experience

I’ve been using Zepeto for a while now and it’s quite fun! I enjoy changing up my character every once in a while to fit the season but I have a few problems with the game. The first one is it’s not available on iPad, not something I mind too much but the black on the sides isn’t the most appealing. Second, the graphics do look nice from a far but zooming in on anything you can see all of the pixels. It’s just not appealing. Third, the scratch games. I’ve never won any of them except the limited zemz scratch and the lucky wheel, it’s a bit odd and makes it less fun, most of them cost coins now too. Fourth, things like Crew and OOTD are a tad hard to get too without the event announcement thing. Fifth, it’s super buggy. It used to crash a lot and now many of the buttons don’t work. An example of this is in Crew I can’t leave one I’ve joined, the button doesn’t work. Many things are super slow to load which is a bit infuriating. Sixth, the clothing is getting ridiculously expensive, I know this is merely to get people to buy coins it’s just dumb. Thanks for reading!
