I’ve had this app for a couple years they need to update it to have Santa say naughty or nice especially the black Santa

Ehhh…..

It’s okay I’m an older sister of color and my mom was very excited when she saw this my brothers are 3 and 5 so they really liked it, a few things you can fix:
1. The camera is sideways
2. It’s kinda glitchy when Santa talks
3. Don’t display the black and white Santa at the same time
4. Make the video call a little longer because my brother was disappointed to see Santa go

That’s all but it’s pretty good app

No point if there is no sound. Really good concept especially with a black Santa.

FAQ

What does the Black Santa app do?

This app allows parents to create a magical experience for their children by facilitating pre-recorded video calls from Black Santa. It's designed to offer a convenient and special way to connect with Santa without the need to visit crowded malls.

How does the video call work?

The app uses pre-recorded messages from Santa. The live element is the picture-in-picture feature, which displays your child's face during the call. The app developer states they have no access to this live footage.

Is this a real-time call with Santa?

No, this is not an actual live call with Santa Claus. It is a pre-recorded message from Santa, enhanced with a live picture-in-picture feature that shows your child's reaction.

Who is this app intended for?

This app is specifically designed for parents who want to create a memorable and magical holiday experience for their children. It's a great alternative for families who prefer to avoid the hustle and bustle of mall visits.
