### 3/5 — Abandoned app

*2025-01-25*

The graphics are broken. Needs an update!

### 5/5 — Nice!

*2020-01-31, version 2.2.2*

Wonderful entertainment app. 

Would be great to have favourites option to add any displayed cosmic top with all of it’s current settings (top type, zoom level, spin, rotation, speed, etc) to a Favourites list.

### 5/5 — Brings out my inner child.

*2019-12-29*

Love the way I can manipulate the size, sounds, rotation and orbit of the tops. Lots of fun. Must do it at least once a day.

### 5/5 — Awesome

*2019-06-30*

Pretty heckling cool, never gets old

### 5/5 — Still awesome

*2019-04-28*

I still play with this app after more than 5 years!! I want to make an art installation with it for festivals it is that cool on a big screen or projection.

### 5/5 — Entertaining ...

*2019-03-13, version 2.2.2*

In a bizarre but VERY GOOD way!
I just love the colours and
shifting shapes.

### 5/5 — This is awesome fun :)

*2019-03-03, version 2.2.2*

Forget the other review this like neon forge is so much fun. Like being a live VJ. Love all the different tops and they you can zoom in or out and spin it or slow it down and rotate and take pics of it or record videos. It’s just fun. Love it :)

### 5/5 — It just gets better...

*2017-07-22, version 2.0.0*

Just like the last reviewer I first got this app several years ago on an iPod touch and loved it. I've since upgraded to an ipad and love it even more. Yes I've done too many drugs, and this app has taken me places I never thought could exist and I always come out the other side smiling wildly.  There's definitely some wizardry and witchcraft in this app, I tell you, as the more you explore the more wonders you find and the more it comes alive!

Whoever created this, you are geniuses of the highest order and I salute you🙏

Mind-bendingly awesome!!

### 5/5 — One of my longest serving toys...

*2017-02-21, version 2.0.0*

I got this App just as Apps were being introduced on iPhone (yeah, my tech age is showing, right?) Anyway, I had sort of forgotten about it until trying to find cool colourful apps for my iPad Pro... and saw these very Cool Bears had done an update only a couple months ago!

Very cool. I highly recommend this if you have either done too many drugs in the past, you are currently on drugs, or if you've never done drugs at all - all can benefit.

### 5/5 — Hypnotic and colorful

*2017-02-15*

At first when you open the app, it appears to randomly generate tops. They are colorful and have cool shapes and designs. Then you can use your fingers in the top screen to move/spin the top around. The bottom screen has settings such as making the top spin in different ways or generating a new top. There are a lot of options, neat sound effects and tops to choose from. I just wish you could create your own tops, but otherwise this app is pretty cool.

### 5/5 — So much fun.

*2017-02-13, version 2.0.0*

I love this app.  It's so hypnotic.

### 5/5 — Fun app!

*2017-02-11, version 2.0.0*

Beautiful and rainbow-colorful visual toy for all ages to enjoy.  Looks great on my iPad Pro.  Get it!

### 5/5 — Colors! Lights! Shapes! Mesmo-lucious!

*2017-02-10, version 2.0.0*

Can't stop playing with the Cosmic Top! Can't stop typing exclamation points!

This app has me utterly jazzed.

You can start a group of lights twirling, rolling, wheezing, twisting, with noises that vary with the amount of touch on your screen, the kind of sounds you would hear in original "Star Trek" at warp speed.

Loads of fun.

### 5/5 — This is the one !

*2016-12-26, version 2.0.0*

Best app ever ! This is the one ! Fun for all ages!

### 5/5 — Amazing!!!

*2016-12-25, version 2.0.0*

Wow, great update !! What a cosmic experience, love creating videos and sharing.

### 5/5 — Beautiful cosmos

*2016-12-22, version 2.0.0*

Wow! What an update! Love the colors and shapes. Being able to record my own sounds for the tops is so much fun. I love how you can record two separate sounds for one top and play them both back at different speeds. Can get some neat mixtures of sounds. A new type of cosmic instrument even. Keep up the good work.

### 5/5 — Awesome

*2016-12-20, version 2.0.0*

It was good before but the recent update makes it 100 times better.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Crashes

*2025-02-08*

App crashes. Running iOS 18.3.

### 1/5 — Nope

*2018-09-21*

Not worth it. Idk about these other comments, but I didn’t see it being worth the buy.

### 1/5 — Crashes

*2013-04-02, version 1.3*

My son loved this app, until it started crashing every time we try to open it.

### 1/5 — Very bad

*2012-05-20, version 1.2*

Pointless app. Really bad. Don't get. One of the worst apps out there.

### 1/5 — Fail

*2011-01-13, version 1.0*

Boring and somewhat ugly app.

### 1/5 — Too expencive

*2011-01-06, version 1.0*

Its much too expencive for what you get, i wouldnt pay anymore than $0.99

### 2/5 — Annoying since updated

*2013-05-09, version 1.3*

The sounds they added to the tops makes this the loudest and most annoying app.

### 2/5 — Mediocre at best.

*2012-12-19, version 1.3*

Not very versatile, and the entertainment value fades fast. Even the UI could be upgraded.

### 2/5 — Good thing it's free

*2011-04-16, version 1.0*

Pretty boring.

### 3/5 — Constant friends

*2025-04-22, version 2.2.5*

## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — I love this app.

*2026-06-30*

I wish I would’ve downloaded this app sooner. When I first found this app, me and my friends were hooked instantly. I love the sound effects on this app. If I could, I’d give you 10 stars. Keep up the great work.

### 5/5 — Still the best

*2025-04-20*

Still one of the best entertainment apps on the iPhone.

### 5/5 — Asterix in background

*2025-03-05*

My question is why are there Asterix in the background? I have used Cosmic Too before & there were no Asterix

### 5/5 — Awesome!

*2024-02-06*

I just love this toy!

### 5/5 — Simply magical

*2023-11-26*

Mesmerizing doesn’t begin to tell the story. Hours and hours of fun!

### 5/5 — Perfect

*2023-10-07*

The best app ever

### 5/5 — A very good app just got better!

*2022-07-13*

Update: OMG I just remembered this app and fetched it!!! My iPad died and it’s a rude awaking to only have the iPhone 12 screen. Very few apps are ‘reasonable’ to use on the i12. Cosmic Top is not one of them. I love this app, and I never said that about any app before, ever. I own several thousand. It can be so relaxing, mesmerizing, meditative and fun! And they have added some new tops since I played with it last. 🤓
I, and everybody that plays with Cosmic Top, fall in love with it and now with this update for the Retina display it looks even better. Adding CD quality is even better! It's a great baby sitter even for adults. Lol

### 5/5 — Needs iPad mini 6th gen support

*2021-10-09*

Make it fit the new screen size.

### 5/5 — Very calming

*2021-05-25*

This app is so amazing that the tops spinning makes me very calm.

### 5/5 — Awesome

*2020-02-07, version 2.2.2*

I this is so much fun to play with.great funam a 70-year-old grandma I am a 70 year old grandma
