Was one of the best, now I can’t attach it to text like I used to. Only can send it like a gif… used to be able to make it different sizes and overlay on a text? When are they going to fix this? ### 5/5 — Oops *2023-05-20* I originally gave this app a poor rating when I bought a new phone and transferred my apps over. It appeared as if I would have to pay again. This is certainly not the case, and their excellent support staff replied quickly to help. Great app, great stickers, great support! Thank you **Developer response:** Our pleasure! ### 4/5 — Dude!!! Soooo hilarious!! *2022-12-16, version 1084* Everyone I send these to poops their pants in shock and laughter!! Could we pretty, pretty please get an update with some more fun stuff, it’s been three years! 🙏🏻 App rocks otherwise!! Thank you!! ### 5/5 — A must have! *2022-11-14, version 1084* This app is 𝐅𝐮𝐧𝐭𝐚𝐬𝐭𝐢𝐜!!!! Absolutely love the variety of stickers and all the animations are very well crafted. Brilliantly made🙌🏽 𝐄𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐲 time I send a sticker, 𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐲𝐨𝐧𝐞 enjoys and downloads. You will not regret the small up charge for the additional animations. I look forward to future updates from this developer😉 Blessings to you & yours. **Developer response:** Thanks! ### 5/5 — Wish there was more *2022-06-14, version 1084* Love this app No problems or glitches Had app for awhile now There’s nothing wrong with what you have just wish there was more Hope to see some new things soon 😁😁 ### 3/5 — Update it! *2021-08-10, version 1084* 5 stars if you update and add ### 5/5 — Love Love Love!!! *2021-04-13, version 1084* This has got to be one of the best emoji apps!!! I just wish that they would create some new ones. It’s been a year since we got new ones. I’m willing to pay more for them! They’re great! **Developer response:** Thanks! That means a lot to us. We are working on a bunch of different things, but they might require some re-configuring and adding some additional functionality in order to make it run the way we'd like. Hopefully we'll have something soon, but we cannot promise anything quite yet. ### 4/5 — It’s okay *2021-03-25, version 1084* 1. Not enough unlocked. I wish I had the throwing up face and the dog peeing one (from the pooping section) unlocked. I wish the “pooping animal stickers “ app was free but no. ### 1/5 — BigHeads *2020-12-23, version 1084* I like the emoji’s I just think it’s lacking especially if you have to pay for the stickers. App not working gifs won’t load after paste? ### 2/5 — everything is locked *2020-09-21, version 1084* So this app would be very good, but it isn’t because everything is locked, i only have 5-6 things i can use and it’s rather useless without any of the emojis unlocked, it says in the app i have to pay $1.99 for all the emojis, but i only have a range of 5-6 which is nothing at all. However i do appreciate the very smooth animations and great art, these have really good potential if you could at least unlock all the pooping animals. This is a 2 star from me. ## Frequently asked questions about BigHeads ### What is BigHeads? BigHeads is an extensive library of animated emojis designed for iPhone users.
