### 1/5 — DONT DOWNLOAD THIS APP! it WILL ruin your life.

*2026-08-14*

I can't do it anymore... i thought this was just going to be a fun and silly app, but now i see that horrible face every time i close my eyes. I haven't slept in days, and i can't get that face... those eyes out my head. Every time i see a cat it fills me with such visceral horror, i know im about to be jump scared. I was so scared i killed and buried my families cat and now i can't stop crying...

### 5/5 — Greatest app ever

*2026-06-28*

This is the greatest app ever. It worked one time, where it flashed 3 cat pics and then played a screamer. Now every time i open the app it crashes. Genuinely the funniest app on the store 20/10
