### 1/5 — 💗🍧💫 cute concept, hard to navigate 💞🫧🌸

*2026-07-16*

It’s really cute and handy for whenever I wanna make my texts extra pretty and fancy! But in all honesty, it’s not that convenient unless I have a lot of time…! There is a search bar, but it doesn’t really work like you type something in and it makes it all cute. There are websites that do that, so this app is kinda unnecessary…! NO OFFENSE!! But if you guys could add a feature like that, I would definitely use it more!! -Naoka 🧸🎀

### 5/5 — :)

### 1/5 — SCAM

*2026-07-07, version 1.7.4*

THIS FAKES A CHARGE OF $499 AND PRETENDS YOU'VE MADE A PURCHASE WHEN YOU HAVEN'T. DO NOT FOLLOW THE LINK OR CALL THE NUMBER LISTED TO SAY THAT THE CHARGE WAS A MISTAKE AND WASN'T YOU. THIS IS A SCAM AND CAN ONLY HARM YOU IF YOU BELIEVE THAT A RIDICULOUS CHARGE WENT  THROUGH, WHICH IS.NOT POSSIBLE!  XXXX  
It looks like a very good deal. It shows no charges or cost of any kind. HOWEVER, the download installs an icon that takes you to a website that pretends you have made a purchase of $499! Then, it gives you a phone number to call "if you didn't make this purchase." I'm lucky enough to use a VPN so they're was no way this app could have tracked my phone either by website or phone number, but I can't swear this will be safe enough for someone WITHOUT a VPN. I'm going to turn this over to the Apple scam department.

### 5/5 — Mimi
