The only good things are the cat stickers! ### 2/5 — No picture options *2025-12-21, version 2.2.12* This app sounds good and all for over writing text messages but if you’re someone like me who is looking for pictures to add then please read this. There are no options to add your own pictures and the ones that they provide for you to add are mainly chibi cat stickers that are cute but not what you’re looking for. I was hoping for a feature of adding your own pictures as an option but you can only make custom text messages. Only get this app if you are looking to customize only text messages and not add custom made stickers. ### 3/5 — Just bought *2024-08-04, version 2.2.11* I just bought this emojis but they don’t appear in there own selection they appeared mix and some can you pls fix it I really like them and I also paid so I can enjoy thank you 😊 ### 3/5 — It’s okay but really read this *2023-10-21, version 2.2.10* At first I was excited cause I could mess with my friends but, when I started making my own word stickers it 1 only allows 5 so you have to delete the other ones or upgrade to pro and 2 it has an add every time you make a sticker. But otherwise it’s only a 3 star app ⭐️⭐️⭐️ P.s screw the automatic responses ### 4/5 — Fun but this- *2023-06-12, version 2.2.10* This app is so much fun! But there could be a change like it could give a bit more spaces for sentences. Even though it is not very expensive it could still use a couple more spaces. Over all I really love the app but that’s all I really think that could be changed. I think other people who want to prank their friends would enjoy this app. I like it because I just change what I want other people say and it’s just super fun! This app I recommend to people who don’t want to pay just to use it. But if the operator of the game could apply these small changes I think the game could be so much more fun! ### 3/5 — Kinda disappointed *2023-05-28, version 2.2.10* It only lets me make 5 text stickers at a time, if I want to make more I have to pay money, please make it so you can have more text stickers at a time. ### 3/5 — Ok, i am mad *2023-05-24, version 2.2.10* I don’t like how you have to pay for more stickers. Like I got on and I was like really excited. I asked my mom if I could stay home from school tomorrow and she was like no and then I changed it to of course because I edited it and made it of course. And then she said no the next time I was like how did that just happened and then I tried to change that to like oh my gosh I’m so proud of you and then it said that I need to delete a sticker to make more so I delete a sticker and basically I lost the stickers I want it says it you only get five stickers or you can make unless you buy it for which is like five dollars and I’m just mad at that. This can be a better game not even a game but this could be a better app for your messages. I guarantee you don’t get this if you only want five stickers and have to delete every special ones that you like. So you don’t get this game unless you wanna pay five dollars to get infinite stickers! ### 2/5 — Bad game! *2023-04-15, version 2.2.10* It’s does not work as it’s says it does and it does not peel of and you can’t change other peoples messages the only reason why I gave it a two was because it did look realistic. ### 4/5 — I have a question *2023-03-13, version 2.2.10* Why does it say that I put the message I was trying to change on my friends text. I don’t know if I did anything wrong but pls tell me if I did anything wrong and how to fix it. ### 4/5 — Decent *2023-03-13, version 2.2.10* It’s good and everything buuuut I wish instead of the fake text being like a sticker that you put overtop, it would just replace it instead of go on top of it so it looks more genuine. Great app tho ### 4/5 — Good app *2023-02-22, version 2.2.8* It’s a good app but there are definitely better ones. ### 2/5 — Honesty *2023-02-10, version 2.2.7* Im not even sure if ur friends can see it ### 4/5 — Good, but one flaw *2023-01-04, version 2.2.4* I mainly got this to troll my friends by changing their messages using this app but when I put a sticker on the message, the sticker is too small and does not cover up the original message. therefore my friends are not fooled. ### 2/5 — Hmm *2022-11-25, version 2.1.2* How do I use this a ### 3/5 — Pretty good needs a bit more *2022-11-11, version 2.1.2* I thought there would me more stickers pretty good thow ### 4/5 — Cant use it *2022-10-18, version 2.1.1* I downloaded a sticker pack and opened it in iMessage and nothing will load, so I can’t use the stickers. It would have been pretty good otherwise, I’m really disappointed. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — You can’t delete it *2023-03-17, version 2.2.10* You can’t delete the app from your phone ### 1/5 — DONT EVEN THINK ABOUT IT *2023-03-13, version 2.2.10* The app kept crashing for me and it was so annoying ### 1/5 — It does when u want a car *2023-03-13, version 2.2.10* I have to get a phone bill from the end of the month and end end work day lol I have to do some things with the kids lol I just woke them out and I started crying lol I started watching it and I started crying and started laughing and crying and started laughing so sad I’m so mad cuz I’m not ready for the phone number ### 1/5 — Sends a picture? *2022-10-24, version 2.1.2* Mine changes the text with the sticker but then also sends a picture of the text I inserted 😒 ### 1/5 — This does not work *2022-09-02, version 2.1.0* This doesn’t work because I tried it out with my uncle and I didn’t work he just saw the text coming from me ### 1/5 — Waaaaaa *2022-07-10, version 2.1.0* It won’t work scam ### 1/5 — Bad app *2022-06-29, version 2.1.0* I can’t even open the app. Every time I click it it just closes. So useless 0 star because I can’t even use it ### 1/5 — Terrible! *2022-06-23, version 2.1.0* I got this app because it had very positive reviews, but when I got it EVERY time I would use one of the stickers to change my friends text, it would send her a picture of what I said like when she said “Yes” I changed it to say “NOO” and it sent her a picture of a little chat bubble saying “NOO” so she can see exactly what I’m changing her thing to. It also doesn’t show the sticker on her screen, so it still shows that she said Yes, but it looks like I sent her a picture of me saying NOO!! This app is bad and not worth my time. 🤦‍♀️ Also, the sticker and letter limit is super small. Maybe if it was larger this could be two stars? 😢😐 ### 1/5 — Yeah no *2022-06-18, version 2.1.0* It was good at first but now it kicks me out every time I try to get in ### 1/5 — Not working *2022-06-01, version 2.1.0* It doesn’t work, i can’t open the stickers, nothing loads, please fix the bug. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — It’s good but *2024-01-13, version 2.2.11* I need to add more stuff to prank my cousin but it’s still a great app ### 5/5 — Love the app *2024-01-07, version 2.2.11* First of all I reeeeaaally like the app but pls can u add stuff like making ur own emoji and monthly u could add 2 more of the stickers? ### 5/5 — FIX THE BUGGG *2023-08-29, version 2.2.10* I asked two years ago I need this bug fixed. I’m obviously obsessed with this game just I can’t get it in IMessage anymore. Ever time I download it it does NOT pop up - Dear BubbleX lover <3 ### 5/5 — Pretty good! *2023-05-25, version 2.2.10* The app is generally a good app besides a few bugs. One of the only apps that actually works, and super fun for pranks! ### 5/5 — Should you the consumer get this app? *2023-02-13, version 2.2.7* I would say this app does what I need for my parking purposes but just a couple of things are missing. I love that you can get customized fake messages/stickers for free unlike many other apps. 1 problem, to the owner of this app this problem you can not fix. It is hard for me to put the sticker exactly over the others message since the size of the sticker enhances, when I’m trying to put the sticker somewhere it is hard to see where the sticker will end up. And I heard there is a limit to how many customized stickers you can have at once but besides from that, I would recommend this app and sorry for the long review but thank you for reading this far. ### 5/5 — It actually works! *2023-01-15, version 2.2.5* When I got this I wanted to see if it actually worked. And sure enough you can reverse peoples texts from yes to no and it is hilarious 😂. I love it thank you!! ### 5/5 — a one problem *2023-01-04, version 2.2.4* why did add ads :( the rest is great though ### 5/5 — I have a question and pls respond. *2022-11-26, version 2.1.2* Does the person in my contact list know that I’m putting a sticker over it? Like let’s say I’m changing my moms text does my mom know that I changed it or…? ### 5/5 — it’s bad for me. *2022-10-07, version 2.1.0* I have the iphone 11 so when people see this don’t start thinking it’s my device. I literally got this app looking at the reviews thinking it was amazing but when i got it i opened some of my new apps first and then this one and then it just kicked me out what a waste of time i honestly think this app might be good for some people but not for me it’s bad just really bad for me but i will be generous and rate it 5 i don’t think this will be bad for other people. I think some people should still try it out bye tysm for reading <3 ### 5/5 — How do I remove the bubbles I custom made? *2022-10-02, version 2.1.0* I don’t mean the ones I put in chat, I want to delete the sitcom made ones and replace them with news ones This app is great! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
