### 3/5 — Awful and a scam

*2025-10-29*

Nowhere to delete your account so it continuously takes money from your account and the app doesn’t help you make gaming apps. It uses ai to write a boring story scripts of your gaming concept while offering you games “others made” on the side

### 2/5 — Crashes on Launch

*2025-05-16*

I paid to have the Build Box desktop app to make games, and this app is key to testing them.  However, it now crashes when it opens (perhaps after an iOS update).  You need to fix this asap.

### 1/5 — Scam

*2025-06-02*

*2024-05-24*

The ia of this one almost can't create a game, she can only do it when I don't want to, and when I wrote "Yes" and she said "You can only write Yes or Edit and blah blah blah" And what did I write? Cobblestone? It's Fix it up

### 1/5 — Terrible customer service

*2023-12-11*

Good luck trying to get your money back. They lock you in at the price you sign up for originally even though they offer new customers 50% discount. No notice of upcoming charges, no refunds.

I had really high hopes for this game and I can’t get on or play and I can’t make a game

### 1/5 — Never recommend

*2023-06-11, version 1.4.6*

When you go for custom ad implement you , 
Custom ad tutorial is private 
Go in community form you see people charging for custom ad implement, 

And also no refund.

### 5/5 — App Crashes on Launch – Needs Urgent Fix

*2025-04-30*

I downloaded this app hoping to try it out, but unfortunately, it crashes immediately upon opening. I’m using the latest iOS version and have tried reinstalling it, but the issue persists. It seems like a serious bug that needs to be addressed. I hope the developers can release an update soon so the app is usable. Will update my review once it’s fixed.

### 5/5 — Life changing

*2024-04-13*

I made a game

### 5/5 — Awesome game

*2023-12-04*

This game is awesome thank you for making it

### 5/5 — Pretty cool

*2023-10-13*

It’s a pretty cool app, you can type in a game you want to create and it’s all A.l made or you can try people’s app they have made on their P.C ,I can’t wait to try it on P.C to make my own APP. Well done Buildbox

### 5/5 — Yes I’m just going to

*2023-08-06*

I’m just going to be able

### 5/5 — This is one of the best apps

*2022-11-13*

I like this app but could you please let people create games on this app instead of on the computer? it just a improvement I’m asking for😊.

### 5/5 — Good app

*2022-11-12, version 1.4.4*

It worked perfectly for me and it was great.

### 5/5 — Seems good

*2022-11-11*

It’s free too

### 5/5 — New update seems rushed

*2022-07-25*

New update is really awful user interface especially on original iPhone SE, please fix this as the last update was way better. This apps honest rating is 3.5/5 because the ui is really bad on smaller phones and also it should load to the exported bits. Also there’s no clear way to delete/rename exported bits??

### 5/5 — Great new companion app!

*2022-07-07*

Been building on BB for a few years. Love the new mobile app to streamline my testing and iteration!

**Developer response:** The Buildbox community has definitely been clamoring for Buildbox World for ages. We're glad you're enjoying it!
