### 1/5 — Couldn’t record any audio

*2023-02-02, version 2.4*

This app is so dumb it wouldn’t let me respond to the questions and kept glitching out. Do not recommend at all. There are so many better apps.

**Developer response:** Hey! We're so sorry to hear you're having issues and that we let you down. Sounds like you found a bug and we'd love to fix it for you. Could you tell us more about the issue here and we can connect via email?

We may not be the best yet, but that only means we're working harder than anyone else to make dovey the best voice messaging prompt pack app out there.

### 3/5 — Really liked the website

*2023-02-10, version 2.6*

I wish they still had the website version or free options. The app doesn’t fit well on my ipad like the website did. I also don’t really have the money to pay a monthly fee for the app. I wish there was another option like watching an add or having extra things for people to pay for but still being able to use the basics for free. My partner and i really enjoyed the activities on it though. We were able to do some of the virtual dates before it changed over and had a lot of fun!

### 3/5 — Only 3 prompts

*2022-12-07, version 1.19.1*

I love the idea of this app and the daily prompts for my long distance partner and I, but there were only 3 prompts and seemingly no way to get more - so pretty short lived. We might try some more of the virtual dates, but wish there were more daily prompts.

**Developer response:** Your wish will soon be granted 🪄 We have an update coming that's so big, we decided to call it Dovey 2.0. And it will have waaaay more than the 3 prompts you found.

### 4/5 — App Not Working with My Phone Number

*2022-11-06, version 1.16.1*

I would love to use this app and have used the desk top version before, but for some reason my app doesn’t recognize my partner’s phone number or mine. Is there something wrong?

**Developer response:** There WAS something wrong! But we fixed it. You should try again and let us know how much you love dovey. 😜 Seriously though, we hope you just have fun using the app with your s/o, bestie, or whoever you dovey with.

### 5/5 — Love love love

*2023-03-04*

Creating my own prompts is so fun!! It’s been so fun to have new things to talk about with my boyfriend and sister! Even my little cousins.

### 5/5 — Honest review

*2023-01-08, version 2.0*

I don’t think people understand how great voice chats can be when they aren’t an afterthought. I’ve used WhatsApp, iMessages, and a couple others and the voice messages are always kind lame. Voice messages on dovey are actually a ton of fun and they even give you daily questions to answer with my partner and friends. The reactions on messages are AMAZING and I’m slightly addicted to reacting to my friends messages. Feels like we’re actually having a real conversation and not just sending a voice message. Hope they keep building this. It’s incredible.

### 5/5 — good app!

*2022-11-22, version 1.18.1*

honestly a good app, the virtual dates brought me and my partner closer together, we do long distance and it gets rough sometimes and the prompts u reply to everyday are nice aswell! can only recommend this

**Developer response:** 🫶 Thanks for the review! We love hearing how dovey helps people feel closer together.

### 5/5 — Dovey is AWESOME

*2022-11-20, version 1.18.1*

I actually love using dovey to keep up with my girlfriend. The way I can send voice messages to her makes me feel like we aren’t doing long distance… telling my friends about this!

**Developer response:** Thank you for the kind words! We are excited to have you here! 😃

### 5/5 — Awesome app needs some fixes

*2022-11-07, version 1.16.1*

This is an amazing app however there are times where the audio message does not play from a partner. Hopefully this gets fixed soon.

**Developer response:** 🙏 Thank you! Yeah, we're aware we need fixing 🤪 Seriously though, we're working on this issue and have already pushed some updates to make your audio experience better. 💪

### 5/5 — Great way to keep in touch

*2022-10-20, version 1.13.1*

There’s nothing like hearing a voice that you miss ❤️

**Developer response:** We couldn't agree more!

*2022-10-13, version 1.12.2*

This app is amazing. So simple and such a beautiful way to celebrate long distance relationships

**Developer response:** You're amazing for these kind words. Thank you!

### 5/5 — Great app for long distance

*2022-09-30, version 1.8.1*

This app made quality time so much easier when doing long distance. I like the new feature with voice memos too combined with their virtual dates.

**Developer response:** Thank you! Your comment just made our day! 😊
