### 1/5 — DOES NOT WORK

*2024-07-14, version 3.1*

We were at Porto's for my mom’s birthday and we did not have a candle available for her. Making a game time decision I downloaded the app so that she could have some resemblance of birthday cheer and make her birthday wish. Hope was high when the app downloaded, but once we opened the app I knew it was a mistake. We sang happy birthday expecting the candles to blow out at the climatic finish, but once my mom tried to blow it out, it was too late. The app didn’t Like I was gonna go to work. The app that advertised the fact that if you blew into your microphone that candle would go out LIED to us and made my mom and I look like fools. Thank you creators of this app for creating a false sense of hope in our time of need. Thank you creators of this app for making fools I tried at like 6:00 PM I drink pre-workout. I work out at five in the morning, so it doesn’t need to be. It’s not supposed to be out of my family. And thank you creators of this app for making the worst app on the app store. If I could give negative stars, I would…

### 1/5 — It’s okay.

*2022-02-15, version 3.1*

This app does not work on my phone. I believe that it is the app based on many of the other reviews but it may just be user error. I was blwing but that didn’t have an effect anything. Again, it may just be user error but I definitely love the idea.
