### 3/5 — Unable to download avatars

*2022-05-22, version 1.33*

Love the app but at this moment I’m unable to download different actors.

### 1/5 — Horribly Buggy

*2019-08-06, version 1.33*

The entire app is so glitchy, so slow, even on my new phone which is much more advanced than my old one. Luckily this app was free, but still, I would definitely not recommend it. 👎

### 4/5 — Genius

*2017-12-24, version 1.0*

Really like the interaction, can’t wait for additional updates to come. 
The gestures and facial expressions are hilarious.
