It is also good fun. ### 2/5 — Can’t load on iPad Air 2 *2018-05-10* Love this app, especially on my iPhone. Recently upgraded to a friend’s iPad Air 2 and Blurt won’t reload. Can’t find how to contact developer. **Developer response:** Please email us at support@yodelcode.com and we will do our best to help you out. ### 5/5 — Future updates *2017-07-25* Excellent app. Suggest further Improvements for the following features:- - enable to output to another apps such as WhatsApp etc. - enable to output as photo, video and gif formats. Looking forward for the updates & thanks. ### 2/5 — Was great. Crashes *2016-09-18, version 3.4* Was great. Crashes all the time now... 😥 ### 5/5 — I love this app!! *2015-10-13, version 3.4* This app is awesome. I'm a band director at a high school and if I want to tell them something silently from afar I can with ease! 👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿 ### 2/5 — It ok *2013-03-04, version 3.4* Its ok but i cant get to change the colour or font of the words! Its annoying! And it doesn't let me click the buttons that i wanna use!! 😡 ### 5/5 — Lots of fun *2012-04-17, version 3.3* Tried 3 scrolling texts. So far this is best!!!! ### 3/5 — キレイなんだが *2011-11-04, version 3.2* 英数字と日本語が混在すると、文字のベースラインが変わってしまって見苦しいのが残念。文字の大きさが選べれば文句なし。 ### 5/5 — Brilliant *2011-09-08, version 3.2* How about an IPad version? Even at the slowest setting the text speeds past almost too fast to read. Love it otherwise. ### 4/5 — Straightforward app works well. *2011-03-11* Really clean and simple with some cool features — some of which are undocumented, such as swiping across the screen while a message is scrolling to "mirror" the text. ### 5/5 — Updated. Review!!..To Add picture ... *2011-03-02, version 3.2* You press edit message then message bar and will show photo icon ! Thanks Aleksey for explaining procedure !! ### 4/5 — Great advertise at cotton bowl *2011-01-09, version 3.2* Seen girl at cotton bowl with this app, it's awesome for free ### 4/5 — Got app bc *2011-01-08, version 3.2* Of the girl on TV from the Cotton Bowl ### 3/5 — 超高速 *2010-12-21, version 3.1.1* 無料のバナーアプリをいくつかインストールしました。 これは背景、フォントは変えられず。文字色は多め。！を入れると変な位置に浮いてる 写真もそのまま入る。スピードがこんな速いの使うんかいってくらい速いレベルまでできる 特筆すべきはそのスピードくらいかな…なので ### 5/5 — Great *2010-12-06, version 0* This is a first page app for me. Very simple and extremely useful. ### 4/5 — Great! *2010-12-06, version 0* Really good app to use! The Text is smooth but the bouncy setting is a bit pointless as it bounces too much for a iPod touch screen! :P One thing is that there could be music and it needs more high quality emojis. ### 5/5 — Great app *2010-12-05, version 0* Simple to use and good fun. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Unusable *2016-02-11, version 3.4* Couldn’t alter the speed of the scroll which made the app unusable. ### 1/5 — Was better when it was simple... *2010-12-06, version 0* Doesn't work anymore since update - don't they test these things? ### 1/5 — Fix the update *2010-12-04, version 0* Updated program and now it won't open. PLEASE FIX ASAP!!!! ### 1/5 — Donwgrade *2010-12-04, version 0* Whoops, you mucked up the update, now it crashes after your welcome message. Which is rather ironic because you are encouraging us to consider upgrading to Marquee, whilst at the same time demonstrating your inability to write upgrades. Oh well. Would be 4/5 stars if it worked ### 1/5 — Ver. 3.1 *2010-12-03, version 0* Now with 95% more crash! ### 1/5 — Crashes EVERY TIME!!!! *2010-12-03, version 0* Nuff said Ps this would be a 0 star if I could ### 1/5 — Rubbish *2010-12-03, version 0* After update does not work ### 1/5 — Crashes every time I launch *2010-12-03, version 0* Just loaded the newest version and it won't open. The app crashes every time I try to launch it. ### 1/5 — Won't open! *2010-11-30, version 0* This worked fine until the new update and now it won't open and keeps crashing!! Arrgghh ### 1/5 — Poo *2010-11-30, version 0* Updated and now crashes at welcome screen. Well done top job (not) ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Great *2024-03-13, version 4.3* Saw this on an episode of The Thick of It and thought it looked brilliant. It is. ### 5/5 — Great little app *2022-01-29, version 4.3* Useful for sending messages - kids love it ### 5/5 — Great app *2021-12-22* I really like this app when trying to get my instructions across a noisy room. ### 5/5 — Awesome *2020-07-30* I love it U need to get this Thank You ### 5/5 — RAD *2020-04-18, version 4.3* Yeah title says it all ### 5/5 — Really good *2018-09-30, version 4.3* Really good ### 5/5 — So far so good ! *2018-05-09* Love it!

It’s simple but great. And they have ironed out a few bugs that started to occur a while back - now on IOS11 it works fine again. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
