### 1/5 — Unusable

*2026-08-08, version 2.6*

Can barely use it because of how many features i need that aren’t even free.

### 2/5 — This app goes soft, but here’s how to do what it does for free

*2026-07-23, version 2.6*

I’m not gonna complain too much about the downfalls of the app as plenty people here have mentioned that in their reviews. However, if you’re like me, you got this app to make it look like someone texted you, and you’re annoyed at the paywalls and functionality. What I recommend doing instead is making a contact with your own phone number then send yourself a message, and turn the phone off before you receive it. You can also schedule the message to be sent at a specific time. Of course this doesn’t replace all the features of the app, but if you’re like me this will do what you want it to do better than this app and for free.

### 1/5 — Muito comercial e pouco resultado

*2026-07-14*

Eu entendo que pra não ter comercial tem que pagar e tals mas não dá velho, essa m3rd@ foi criada por dois indianos e ainda passa comercial, se lascar.

### 1/5 — Too much ads

*2026-04-21, version 2.6*

It’s ok to put ads in you app, but this one is way too much

### 2/5 — Only screenshots. No visibility in app.

*2026-03-27, version 2.6*

I paid $10 for the full app (listed as $1.99 in app but actually $9.99) 
After paying I realized that even though you can make the “fake” lock screen. You can’t visualize it without the big “preview” button at the bottom.  You need to export a screenshot of the fake background. Which doesn’t work for my needs. I needed a way to put fake message on the screen for a video project. But having a screenshot is NOT the same. I could’ve just photoshopped that if I needed

### 1/5 — Digital garbage

*2026-03-22, version 2.6*

You’re paying for something you can get for free and open source on Android. Stop exploiting people on iOS all because they can’t install custom apps.

### 1/5 — WAYYYY TOOO MANY ADS

*2026-03-21, version 2.6*

Don’t download this app! Boycott!!! Too many ads, it’s super annoying ugh 😡😠

### 1/5 — Bad apps

*2026-03-17, version 2.6*

Too many paid stuff , soo many adds, not good of a software

### 1/5 — Horrible

*2026-03-16, version 2.6*

Me pide 200 pesos para tan siquiera querer crear una notificación sencilla

### 1/5 — too many ads

*2026-03-05, version 2.6*

I would actually buy it but it has too many ads so no, I am ok
