But as you can see the buttons are gray so they appear to be grayed out. I didn’t have my phone on mute, but maybe the app defaults to mute mode or something. I had a similar problem to someone else, I needed canned laughter in a hurry for a talent show, and this didn’t work and I didn’t have time to mess with it. And when it doesn’t work there is no help or anything to indicate what to do. ### 1/5 — Crap *2021-08-25, version 2.0* Does not work ### 1/5 — Not good *2021-06-17, version 2.0* So bad, doesn’t even work ### 1/5 — No laughing matter *2021-04-04* Installed app, nothing works. Refund please. **Developer response:** Have you tried the mute button to see if it’s enabled? Otherwise, I can see that it still works with latest operating system here. Email at info@beatsnbobs.com ### 2/5 — Bit disappointed *2021-03-03* Doesn’t work while your talking on your phone with someone. Would be heaps better if you could. ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work *2020-12-10* Doesn’t work when you press on the laugh tracks. Quickest refund ever. ### 1/5 — App sticks - doesn’t work but still charges you *2020-12-08* Rubbish!! ### 1/5 — Big Time Rip off... shame. *2020-08-29* Seriously, I paid the buck and thing only does 4-5 laughs. You can’t adjust anything on it, there are no settings. It is one button that plays one sound for each of the laughing sounds. Real shameful that some is making money on this. My own fault for not reading the reviews. Maybe mine will help someone. DON’T DO IT. ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work *2020-07-17* Doesn’t work. iPhone X. Not even a little bit. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — What happened? *2026-01-11* It doesn’t down load!!! ### 1/5 — Junk *2025-09-18* Down loaded this app. and didn’t work. Tried to contact them, but they won’t respond **Developer response:** Hi. I have had no emails about this app. As mentioned to others , the iPhone mute button disables sound so see if that is turned on. It is currently working for me still. Let me know if that helps. If not then provide me iOS version and device. Info@beatsnbobs.com ### 1/5 — It’s a scam *2025-05-20* Does not work don’t Buy terrible please how do I get a refund **Developer response:** This is certainly not a scam.

Do not buy! *2024-07-22* How do you have the simplest app… an app that plays sound effects, and it doesn’t play ANY sound effects? I’m glad I only dropped 99 cents on this scam trash. ### 1/5 — No longer works *2024-04-07* iOS 17, crashes on launch ### 1/5 — FAKE APP!!!! *2022-05-31* This does nothing! **Developer response:** This is not a fake app! You might have the mute button on. Quite a common user error. ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work - don’t buy *2022-01-14* The only features that work on this app are links to other sites. Does not work as described. ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work *2021-12-08* Paid and downloaded a frozen screen! Great. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Perfect haha *2025-09-20* Works now, thanks, dev! **Developer response:** It’s working on iPhone iOS 18 Email me if you still have problems Thanks ### 5/5 — It worked yesterday *2024-09-13* This app has some great laughs, but it stopped working on the day after I downloaded it. ### 5/5 — Perfect *2023-09-07* Exactly as advertised. ### 5/5 — If you want a good laugh *2023-07-26* At least some one is going to laugh at your jokes ### 5/5 — It works *2023-06-25* It works but I was hoping for a random or loop function but 👍 ### 5/5 — Doesn’t work as advertised *2021-12-13* I left a negative review and the Dev responded very politely pointing out that I needed to turn the volumes up and ensure ‘sounds’ were on! Thanks for being so professional. Works as described. Keep the £1.79… ;-) **Developer response:** Thank you for trying the suggestions from last response. Glad it worked and much appreciated you updating your review for this. We need more like you :) Happy Christmas … Old response included for other members : …. Sorry to hear you are having issues. 99% of problems are caused by user forgetting the mute button is on or volume is down. Feel free to email at info@beatsnbobs.con That’s the best way to let me know of any problems and I always fix them when I know about them ### 5/5 — More laughs than it appears *2021-11-13* I first rated this 3 stars because with only a few buttons, it looked like this app didn’t have very many laugh sounds. Took me a while to realize that each button gives you several variations of laughs based on the general type of laugh you want. (Also, you can’t have your phone on silent for this to work.) Excellent concept, it’s just not totally obvious how it works. **Developer response:** Hello. Glad you are enjoying the full potential of this. Thanks for update and your patience with find out it has more than it seems. The mute button has given me some bad reviews and I should try to have an alert for that. Much appreciated update. Thanks again :) ### 5/5 — Laughter *2021-03-13* A teachers best friend. A sense of humour ! ### 5/5 — Works as described *2020-07-31* As long as your phone isn’t on mute, it works great. ### 5/5 — Works well *2020-03-18* Makes my lame jokes acceptably funny while having drinks with friends. Sometimes my people need a push start like a kid on a pushy, then they’re away 😅 Well it helps me to laugh anyway. **Developer response:** Perfect for the occasion then. Glad you like it ;) Much appreciated Cheers --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
