### 4/5 — 割といいけど、

*2024-08-09, version 1.1*

できたらアイコンを写真に変える機能が欲しい
31種の中で動物しかないのもな、と思った
でも意外と、ちょっと使いやすかったりはする
まあとにかくアイコンの種類を増やすか写真に変えれるようにしてください

### 5/5 — 次世代のゼンリー

*2023-01-16, version 1.1*

ゼンリーに似てはいませんが使い勝手はゼンリー以上かと思います。私は高校生ですが友達と使いあってとても重宝しています。中高生の皆さんレビーに惑わされず1度インストールして使ってみてはいかがでしょうか？

### 3/5 — いいけど

*2020-08-24, version 1.1*

### 3/5 — おしい！

*2019-10-04, version 1.1*

他の方が書かれている通り、アプリを最小化している時にプッシュ通知を飛ばすようにしてくれればかなり実用的になると思います。
会社のイベントで現地の待ち合わせに使わせて頂こうかと思いましたが、断念。

### 5/5 — 同居人と、毎日使っています^ ^

アイコンの種類が
増えるとうれしいですᕦ(ò_óˇ)ᕤ

### 3/5 — いいけど。

*2018-10-27, version 1.1*

常に位置情報が変わらないのが、
いけないと思う。
このアプリは、アプリを開いた時に位置情報がオンになって、位置がわかるのが、嫌だ。
しらも、メッセージの通知が来ないのがダメ
