Aber ansonsten ist diese App super.🤩🤩🤩🤩 ### 4/5 — Amazing App *2024-09-02* Yes the first two characters are in every chat but you can just make more and ignore the first two I have used this app for a while and I love it but, it would be great if you added “themes” like the messages app is a theme so it looks like the messages app when you text and stuff and WhatsApp could be a theme yk? It would be a awesome feature if you added it! But maybe if you do add themes make them free? ### 4/5 — Really good to use for videos *2024-07-30* Pretty good but when I try to make another story and want to add a different character it always goes to the other story and for anyone wondering there’s a preview button for video creators that you can add to videos love it though! ### 3/5 — Great! *2024-06-24* This app is great for story's tho it is very hard cuz ever Time I wanna make a new character on a different story it changes the others it really good tho I like it so 3 stars ⭐ ### 4/5 — It’s good but the sound *2024-05-26* I don’t Like the sound of the reply’s text ### 4/5 — Pretty good. *2024-01-13, version 1.6.2* It’s a great app and it’s fun to use, I just wish there was an option for a narrator sort of thing, like in other fake texting apps. Like you can put text that doesn’t come from either character. ### 4/5 — PROBLEM, *2024-01-05* First, i went onto the app started reading my story but then...., IT KEPT GLITCHING, basically. I mean it was like poping, am weird but yah, fix this problem i barley can read the storys because of this. thanks, if you read this♥ 4 stars because of what i explainded id recommend something else. ### 5/5 — Calm down *2024-01-02* OK here’s the thing I seen one about how they hated it because you there’s ads on the little thing and you can’t have that well if you when you save the video it gets rid of the ad and the nameplate so I’m using this for Toca life world because I need it for the texting part but it doesn’t show at the top who is in the chat so I just added my daughter and my mom and don’t use her best friend because for the first group chat I put my daughter my best friend, so it doesn’t matter you just save it and there’s an app called iMovie where you can insert all your clips together or you can use CapCut doesn’t matter butThose are both apps that you can put clips together. I suggest CapCut because iMovie kind of makes like a moving effect and moves around so there’s your thing if you’re making tic-tok POV’s just save it The nameplate an ad will be gone, and if you only use the two characters even though there’s three characters because the first two characters are still there I don’t know just take my advice please and stop getting all angry ### 4/5 — Good but one problem *2023-12-20* I really like this app because I can make stories, but now I can’t because whenever I try to tap on one story, it signs me out and it’s kinda annoying because I haven’t been on my stories for a while and it has come to me thinking I should delete the app. Unless the team can fix this issue, I won’t be playing anymore. ### 5/5 — Great app *2023-11-21* This is an awesome app, you can express yourself and pretend to text people! ### 4/5 — Good *2023-11-08* Really good app, can use for many things. Bit of a problem where if you change a characters name or profile pic it automatically changes it on all your stories. But pretty good other than that! ### 4/5 — Good but some things… *2023-10-17* I genuinely love this app I got it today when I saw someone using it and it looked fun I don’t regret it at all!The things you need to improve on are:When you wanna change a character it says save/delete which is annoying I think it would be better without it 2nd:When you wanna take one character away it’s annoying because it just deletes all the messages 3rd:(not everyone might care about)I don’t really like how it says the characters in the story title I think it’d be better if you got rid of it Either than that I love the app I would totally recommend it ### 5/5 — Love it *2023-10-17, version 1.6.2* It’s an amazingly good app.Like I don’t do texting unless it’s WhatsApp messenger or anything like that this app is so good.It’s a funny app we’re u can prank friends! I love the entertainment. ### 4/5 — Great but one thing *2023-10-02* I think this app is really cool and easy to use but as some other people have mentioned, when you edit a character in one story it changes it for all of them. Is there a way to make it so it only changes in that one story since I wanted to make multiple stories with different characters, and if I wanted to do that I’d have to change it each time which isn’t something I’d like to do if possible. ### 4/5 — This is ok *2023-09-22* So I really like this app because I needed something to make fake chats because I didn’t want to do this with anyone real so this is a really good app but… The only problem with this app is when I make one chat and I finally finish them I would go to make another one but cause I like to change characters and names it changes BOTH!You seriously need to fix this or I won’t use it because it will be annoying! I do like the app tho I would recommend it for starters because there is a really good animation and doesn’t waste time typing when you play it. Out of ten I would rate this a 6/10. P.S. if you are a starter this app is really good it makes realistic noise except for the boing when you send one. Over all this is a really good app except for when it changes the name and character and makes the boing noise. Thank you for reading this 😊 ### 4/5 — Update? *2023-09-04* I absolutely love this app, and i use it quite a lot, but i was just thinking we cause have a new update? And we could change the background of the chat rooms, and change the colour of all chat bubbles, not just ‘left’ and ‘right’ if you have multiple people in one chat. Other then that I absolutely love it ^^ ### 4/5 — Good, but… *2023-08-02* This app is amazing, with full experience to create your own story and send off videos of it to friends! But there’s one slight problem to this. Two, actually. 1. When you make a story and add two first characters to the chat, you use them until you finish the story, right? But when I made a second story and I wanted to change the first two characters names, it automatically changed the other story first two character’s names to the one I changed it to on the second story. This is really annoying and I really recommend you fix this. 2. I don’t have trouble with this, but my friend does. So she told me that when she went into the app today to listen to one of her stories, the app just completely took her out the whole website! So she tried a different one but it kept logging her out! Please fix these small problems and help my friend too. That’s all but other than that it’s a wonderful app, thank you 🙏! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — App crashes when seen a character named “ “ *2025-11-09, version 1.6.2* I did this and when the screen shows the character, the app immediately crashes. ### 1/5 — Trash *2024-12-15* Stürzt als ab. Texte werden nicht ganz angezeigt und abgeschnitten. Schlechtester Euro den ich je investiert hab. ### 1/5 — Who would buy this *2022-10-26, version 1.6.2* I thought it was a texting app lol ### 1/5 — Worst story chat ever *2022-09-04, version 1.6.2* For some reason it keeps putting the first one I made at the bottom and I keep deleting it so that’s why I gave it one star it’s The worst app I’ve ever downloaded in my life so you better fix this because I will hate this forever honestly it’s so annoying least I found a better one so yeah goodbye From Summer_ ### 1/5 — I don’t really like it *2022-05-06* Okay, so this app is okay. Basically it’s just for fun, not for creating content. I’m constantly looking for a good fake texting app to make Harry Potter texting POVs for TikTok, but I can’t find any. This is just one of the many apps I have tried. There are adds at the very bottom of the screen above the text key, which I can’t have for videos. The video is also very bad, and overall it’s not a good app. You’re obviously welcome to download the app but if you’re like me, just trying to find an app to make POVs or whatever, this app is a terrible option. If I could do 0 stars I would. ### 1/5 — I don't recommend this app *2021-10-25* This app is faulty. Well here are my experiences: (1) You can't download the text you made in video or gif formats. Especially when your text story is 4-5 min long. (2) You can't preview it properly if it's long. It will keep glitching. (3) I paid 4 dollars to remove the watermark but when I reopened the app, the watermark came back. Means my 4 dollars got wasted in this stupid app. ### 1/5 — Glitchy *2020-10-08* When I finish a text story on this app I click pre view and after about ten seconds of it playing through, the screen flickers!! I’m not impressed with this at all. Please fix it. ### 1/5 — WHY *2020-06-12, version 1.6.2* It won’t let me open any storys! Every time I try to it crashes! Please fix!! ### 2/5 — Naja… *2023-11-13* Naja ich finde es jetzt nicht so super weil bei mir verspricht es nicht so was die App bietet, ständig Werbung und ich kann keine Chats löschen oder einzelne Chats machen. ### 2/5 — AWFUL *2022-08-06, version 1.6.2* It glitches every 24 hours ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Tagesschau *2025-06-19* Das ### 5/5 — Love it *2025-01-16* I love this game so so much it’s the best for me and my cousin we love using it and it’s so fun ### 5/5 — This is a good app! *2024-07-27* I love this app so much it’s so good! But can we remove the template? ### 5/5 — I love it *2024-06-05* My parents don’t allow me to have any texting apps. So I can finally fake chat with my friends. I always us this app instead of having another app to actually call or message my friends even though that’s more fun. I definitely recommend this app if you would use it like me or if you would use it to create a story! BEST APP EVER!!!🤩🤩🤩🤩 ### 5/5 — Sonia *2024-04-15, version 1.6.2* I loved it it was such a good prank on my friends! ### 5/5 — I text stories *2024-02-23, version 1.6.2* This is so so fun, I pretend I typed to MrBeast 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 ### 5/5 — Omg AKA (OH MY GOSH) *2024-02-14* So like I love itttttt. But like please make an update🫨 I would love if you could make your background a picture. SOOOO that’s all. I RECOMMEND. There is literally no ADS🚫 ### 5/5 — amazing *2024-02-03, version 1.6.2* very good its free and unlimited characters, unlimited stories plus cool customization 😃 but things u should add are: -putting photos for bg and thats the only suggestion i have lol 😆 anyway great app download rn ### 5/5 — 5 stars ⭐️ *2024-01-26* This app is amazing !!
