### 5/5 — Never Judge A Beer By Its Bottle 🤗

*2019-07-04, version 1.5*

I was chilling out with my boys one day and one of them asked me out of the blue, “What’s the worst app you’ve ever heard of?”
Without any hesitation, I told my pal, “99 Bottles!, of course.” They looked at me with an intrigued expression. “What makes this app so horrible?” they asked at once.
I sighed and began telling them about the capitalist society we live in today that makes the rich take beer away one bottle at a time. I told them my tale of why I must defeat this saga of terror, of course telling them how much beer bottles are important to me. Although I do not drink beer, wine, water, or any other liquid, I collect bottles, hoping one day I will be able to start my own glass bottle symphony.
“Well, what’s the premise of the app?”
I stared at them, dumbfounded at what to respond. “I—I don’t know,” I stuttered, “I suppose I’ve never used the app.”
I knew what we were all thinking: we should download the app to find out. And so we did.
To make this story short, 99 Bottles! is my savior, my angel, and the light in my life. I wake up every day just to play 99 Bottles! Sometimes, when I’m feeling a bit wild, I set it to 1 bottle and play it over and over. I would recommend 99 Bottles! to any of my friends. Fortunately, they all know about it.
Although my wife left me over my so-called “obsession” of 99 Bottles!, the monotone robot voice fills my soul with a fuzzy, warm feeling.
Thank you, 99 Bottles! for getting me through dark times, such as when my wife took the children after I contemplated renaming them to “Bottle 99” and “Bottle 98”. You are my savior ☺️🙏

### 5/5 — Changed my Life

*2019-04-04, version 1.5*

Never before have I heard such mystic words of wisdom. Each pause between the first and second number is almost orgasmic in nature. The beauty that comes from the heavenly voice gifted to this application takes me back to my days of young and adventures through the meadows and creeks of Southern Alabama. No longer do I take my life for granted, and I now pray to this app as my new lord and savior.

This app changed my life. Once upon a time I was a troubled teen. One day I was scrolling through the App Store and there it was, as beautiful as ever. “99 bottles!” As It was practically glowing. I downloaded it. Ever since that beautiful day in ‘09 I have been going to church every Sunday morning AND Wednesday nights. I will forever thank this app for turning my life around. Thank you “99 bottles!”.

### 5/5 — WOW

*2018-11-18, version 1.5*

I’ve never heard such a more godlike and angelic voice in my life up to this point. I’m in literal tears right now 😭. These tears cause by this app need to be bottled as they’ll be magical and have powers to heal anyone from any illness. I play this while I lie back in bed restless and it helps me and my 7,892 children sleep soundly. Couldn’t be better. I’m at a loss for words. I love this so much <3

*2015-05-04, version 1.1*

Worst game ever total garbage

### 1/5 — Worst Game Ever

*2015-04-03, version 1.1*

In this game there is nothing to do you just sit and watch until there's no more bottles of beer there's no secret it's all just crap so don't download this game it will just waste your storage and then you'll delete it and never get it back😡

### 2/5 — Hmm.

*2010-08-04, version 0*

Sung by a robot. Which kinda made it well... Lame. I was so dissapointed. Thought it actually be singing. But that's just me.

:)

### 4/5 — Almost perfect!

*2016-05-14, version 1.2*

Needs to have a "start over plus" option once you get to 0 where you start over from 99 and go all the way to negative 99. If it had that I'd give it 5 stars.

### 4/5 — Mark the oily boy

*2011-01-12, version 1.0*

What a waste of time? How annoying can you get? Good fun if you hate someone.

### 5/5 — great! but...

*2022-03-13, version 1.6*

i love the app and have had it since 2016 when i was still using an android. it's perfect! except...well i might be clueless but is there a way to play it in the background while my phone is locked? i would ask the developer himself but couldn't really find a way to get in contact with him, so i'll just have to ask here. 
again, this app: wonderful, terrific, amazing, an absolute necessity

### 5/5 — This app changed my life

The second I downloaded this app, my life changed for the better. This app gave me super powers. I can now see in the dark and walk on walls. I would give this app 100 stars if I could. This app is everything you could ever need ever. I can’t believe more people don’t have this app. I love this app. This app is my favorite thing. It’s not only my favorite app, but it’s my favorite thing in general.

### 5/5 — Quarantine Thrills

*2020-04-08, version 1.5*

I was feeling absolutely depressed due to having to stay inside of my dreary, lonely, sad home during this time of social distancing (due to COVID-19). I felt bored, like I had no purpose to keep waking each morning. Even the presence of social media, my family, or a few spare friends could convince me to get out of bed. One day, as I was laying upon my pillows, wrapped like a snug sushi roll in my grey and fluffy blanket, I found this app, suggested to me by the App Store. At first, I was suspicious. It certainly didn’t seem to be anything special. Boy, was I wrong! Ever since, the robotic (yet melodic) tune of this absolutely breathtaking song has been ringing beautifully through my ears. This truly has changed my life and turned my mood around. I would highly recommend this app to most everyone and, when I am allowed to see people again, will be suggesting it to every single person on the street! 99 Bottles 4Eva!!! 🍾🍾

### 5/5 — CHANGED MY LIFE

*2020-02-29, version 1.5*

### 5/5 — Best game ever

*2019-07-12, version 1.5*

I will recommend this game to all of my friends in order to bore them to death. But in a loving way. Because we‘re friends. But on a more serious note than killing off all of my friends on purpose, I actually couldn‘t stop giggling when I first downloaded this app.
