For white text on a static image? Get real. ### 1/5 — I HATE THIS GAME!!!!!! *2020-06-06, version 2.3* I can't do anything in this game, it won't let me write on a picture or I can't put a picture. Please do not try this game if it works for you then good if it doesn't don't download this game again, I HATE THIS GAME!!!!!!. ### 1/5 — Joke *2020-05-19, version 2.3* 30$ a year lol. Get real. It was a good app when it was free. I didn’t need a upgrade. ### 1/5 — You REALLY have to pay for this app *2020-05-17, version 2.3* 50$ a year is a lot for just some memes DEFINITELY make there a way to not pay, maybe make the people who do pay have access to ones who don’t. ### 1/5 — Refund please!! *2020-04-21, version 2.3* I opened this app with my free version, clicked the side button to reinstall and I was charged 29.99! That is NOT what I was wanting to do!! I don’t want to purchase anything, how can I resolve this?? ### 1/5 — £30 a month subscription! *2020-03-26, version 2.3* That’s right. £30/Month sub. It was alright when it was free. The positive reviews are all over a year old. £30 a month to put text on a photo. Let that sink in. ### 1/5 — Lies *2020-03-06, version 2.3* I was told on the app it would have a free week trial... nope looked in my bank account and that’s 30 dollars I can never get back now. Don’t use this app. ### 1/5 — False advertising *2020-02-25, version 2.3* I have had this app for years, always free. I open it to use this morning and there’s a new screen prompting me to use a FREE trial, the only way to access it now. Once I click on FREE trial I am immediately charged $29.99. Beware. ### 3/5 — Am I missing something *2020-02-23, version 2.3* Is it just make a meme and share it to a friend I though it was like vine and you could record ### 1/5 — Trash *2020-02-22, version 2.3* Trash app. Was great when it was free. Just noticed today they want $20+! Bye Felicia! ### 1/5 — Way to ruin a good free app *2020-02-21, version 2.3* $29.99 a month? Are you crazy? This app has been free for yeeeeeears, with in app purchases to buy new meme templates and out of nowhere you’re charging astronomical prices. I’d give this 0 stars if I could. Avoid this like the plague. ### 1/5 — I want my money back! *2020-02-15, version 2.3* Accidentally purchased for a month. I have used this app only a dozen times at best and I’m certainly not going to pay $44 a month for it. ### 1/5 — Terrible now *2020-02-14, version 2.3* App used to be great for making memes of friends. Now to use it it’s $29.99 A MONTH? Good luck getting people to pay for this garbage. Delete and don’t download. ### 1/5 — Really??? *2020-02-14, version 2.3* From a totally free app I’ve been using for nearly 3 years to.....wait for it...$30 per month? That has to be a joke. I would consider a one time fee of maybe $10. R.I.P. Make A Meme. ### 1/5 — Was free now it’s a cash grab *2020-02-13, version 2.3* I woke up to an email this morning stating that this app charged me $30 for my “Monthly subscription” to which I did no authorize. I’m sorry but $30 a month to make a meme now and then is ridiculous. I got my money back and deleted this app. Found a much better app and it’s free. ### 1/5 — *-*DO NOT GET THIS APP*-* *2020-02-11, version 2.3* It used to be a great meme app but now they’ve changed it completely and SCAMMED ME! They did a pop up payment that I accidentally bought because my thumb was resting on the home button, it said it was a 1 month free trial first so I quickly unsubscribed and just recently saw that I was charged $50 even though they said it would be a free trail. Avoid this app at all costs ### 1/5 — Wow... *2020-02-05, version 2.3* Been using this app for years before they updated and changed it. Now you have to pay an ungodly $25 a month to use it. I don’t care how many upgrades you added to it, nothing is worth $25 a month. ### 1/5 — Not happy at all *2020-02-03, version 2.3* This app has charged my account £29.99. I have had the app for quite some time and all of a sudden it asked to click for a free month trial. I then noticed it said £29.99 per month and cancelled the subscription right away but still charged me. ### 1/5 — Greed Strikes Again! *2020-02-02, version 2.3* This app was great for making a quick meme once in awhile to make fun of my friends, but now after the update they want $20 a month. Absolutely ridiculous! If they think this app is worth more than Netflix, they are literally insane. This company really needs to learn what market value means. I’ll be deleting the app and finding something different for my meme making needs. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — terrible *2024-02-06, version 2.3* it has no videos only pictures it’s nothing like vine and it’s only like 10 pictures ### 1/5 — Very Bad app - don’t even try. *2022-04-20, version 2.3* After I downloaded it (there was no indication it was a paid subscription), I attempted to use it. Unfortunately it kept freezing/crashing. When I was finally able to get a picture to start making a meme, it was so basic & did not appear to have all the bells & whistles it claimed to have, so I uninstalled it same day. Abt a week goes by and I try to update my other apps and they are saying I owe them 29.99+tax for an 1yr subscription! Ridiculous - if I was presented with an option, I would have done a week or month, certainly not a year. And if I accidentally pressed something, fine I will take the hit but IT DOESN’T EVEN WORK! ### 1/5 — Way to expensive *2022-01-04, version 2.3* I don’t know why people pay just to use an app, like $45 just to use an app is ridiculous and most of the reviews are terrible. Not worth the money!!!! ### 1/5 — PRIVACY WANING *2021-10-10, version 2.3* This app only works when connected to mobile data or WiFi. When the app opens up (On newer iOS versions) you get a warning that the app is pasting from your clipboard from other apps which could be dangerous to your data ### 1/5 — Don’t download, as soon as I hit “free trial” I was charged!!!! *2021-03-05, version 2.3* Don’t download, as soon as I hit “free trial” I was charged!!!! ### 1/5 — Corruption *2020-12-22, version 2.3* I used to make memes on this app for free, and it was fun, and I think there was an option to purchase some kind of premium mode that would remove the meme creator watermark or something. Keyword: OPTION. I deleted the app because I thought I was done with it. Today, I thought I would reinstall it for nostalgia, and I CAN’T DO ANYTHING WITHOUT STARTING A THREE DAY FREE TRIAL THAT WILL AUTORENEW AFTER THOSE THREE DAYS?! SERIOUSLY?! Absolute scum of the earth. ### 1/5 — SCAM AVOID!!!!!! *2020-09-25, version 2.3* I used to use this app years ago and it was fine, but I downloaded it the other day and clicked free trial, and it charged me 30quid and signed me up to pay the same 30 each month. This is an app you could do in WhatsApp editing and screenshots. It’s clearly A SCAM. ### 1/5 — Free trial charged me £30 *2020-08-01, version 2.3* Piece of garbage you could do in browser for free. ### 1/5 — Byte Support *2020-07-25, version 2.3* I need to speak to support ASAP please ### 1/5 — Don’t buy *2020-07-21, version 2.3* App says “ Free Trial “ click on it and it charges you £29.99 for a year. Complete lie and will be reporting and refunding as soon as possible. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Easy *2020-04-28, version 2.3* Love using it, super easy ### 5/5 — Easy *2020-01-21, version 2.2* Easy to make memes and all!

No in app purchases and I love the hats/faces add on feature you can use on the memes. Never crashes. And you can use your own pictures. Why buy anything else when you can get this beauty? Love it all, no complaints. 5 shiny stars from me ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
