### 1/5 — Please bring back the old app

*2026-05-01, version 26.04.26*

I do not like the idea of these interactive survival choices, in fact, you even changed the To Tell In The Dark stories into something else, do not recommend this app EVER, or if youre twisted and is hated by everyone, have this app, but if youre twisted normal, NEVER HAVE THIS APP!!!

### 5/5 — Great!

*2026-01-19, version 25.04.10*

At first I thought this was going to be some kind of dumb app with non-scary stories that are not official,but this is actually kind of good! I like it! Big fat 5 stars

### 4/5 — Storiee

If you are a fan of horror stories then this is definitely the right app for you. Hours upon hours of creepy tales await you inside! From classics all the way to recent Nosleep stories, this app has you covered! Highly recommended.

### 3/5 — Babysitter

*2025-03-08*

I love it but so far I just read the babysitter and I think they made a mistake because it started with three children that she was babysitting and ended with two children that she was babysitting

### 1/5 — EXTREMELY INAPPROPRIATE!

*2024-12-21, version 24.04.05*

THIS APP IS UNSAFE FOR YOUR CHILD AND ANYBODY! THE MOST VIOLENT AND DISTURBING WAS SQUIDWARD! PLEASE DO NOT DOWNLOAD! I AM A PODCASTER WITH A SCARY STORY PODCAST AND MY STORIES AREN’T AS GORY AS THIS! IT IS MY MISSION TO STOP PEOPLE FROM LISTENING TO THIS! NOTE: THIS IS A WARNING

### 2/5 — Cute

*2024-10-17, version 24.04.05*
