Could you please add an in-app purchase to remove ads? I used to love this app and would pay for it! As long as it’s not a subscription. I appreciate you! ### 2/5 — ?? *2026-07-17* 한국어로 어떻게 바꾸는지 모르겠어요 ### 3/5 — tbh not bad *2026-01-11, version 1.7.4* the icons r pretty cute and aesthetic but i think they should add some more features like making/designing ur own emoji or smth like that. bye besties ciao ### 2/5 — Cannot add as a third party keyboard *2025-12-31, version 1.7.4* I was able to do it last time I downloaded, Im not sure why I cant now? I also dont remember how I did it, but the first time it showed me a “press allow to add as keyboard” and it worked. I dont rly wanna copy n paste. but back when I could actually add it, it was an amazing app. ### 4/5 — Awesome but.. *2025-12-30, version 1.7.4* It’s great but I think it should be a keyboard option too since it takes long to get out of the app, copy it and then paste it. ### 4/5 — What it says on the tin *2025-10-15, version 1.7.4* Lots of emoticons ### 5/5 — (´•ω•̥`) *2025-08-14* крутоееееооо,не знаю как у вас,но у меня быстро загружается ### 5/5 — this is a rlly cute app! *2025-08-05, version 1.7.4* i LOVE this app! i js wish u would make a version for ipads! it would be supa good cuz it’s irritating how i have a small keyboard on this app.. but it’s amazing 🍮🍀 everything’s so jojifuku! ### 5/5 — Cutie patootie *2025-07-24, version 1.7.4* The emojis are so cute they’re perfect in their completely free. I love it. Hope you can make another app. ### 4/5 — I LOVE IT *2025-06-10, version 1.7.2* ₍ᵔ·͈༝·͈ᵔ₎ ### 5/5 — Love this cute app *2025-04-29, version 1.7.2* My friend recommended this app, and its has a large variety of symbols ### 2/5 — It’s not the best *2025-04-21, version 1.7.0* Ehh it’s really boring and it only has a use for emojis which the emoji aren’t even that cute so I don’t know what’s your take on it sincerely 🍭rotten🍟 ### 5/5 — CUTESY!!! *2025-03-07, version 1.7.0* I FREAKING LOVE KAOMOJIS THEYRE SO CUTE OH EM GEE!! ### 5/5 — :) *2025-02-08* 틱턱에 추천으로 깔아봤는데 좋더라고요??!! 그리고 이런 이모티콘...?같이 생긴 애들 가지고 싶었는데 너무잘됬더라구요!!;)그래서 계속 잘 쓰고있어요🤗너무 좋아용! 한번깔아보시는것도 강추 x100 (?) ㅋㅋㅋ ### 2/5 — Boring *2025-01-22, version 1.7.0* There is nothing you do but that F̣̣ạc̣̣ẹṃọj̣̣ị is way better in my opinion it gives you all of that plus free keyboards no pay 💰literary( . - .) ### 5/5 — Great App! Can it be Something Else too? 👀 *2024-12-17, version 1.7.0* I love this app with all of my heart! But there's one question I really want to ask: Will this ever become a Website for people without the App? ( Ex: People with Andriod, PC Users, Ect. ) ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — cute concept, hard to navigate *2026-08-10, version 1.7.4* Yep. ### 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 🧸🎀 ### 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. ### 1/5 — Horrible. 😭 *2025-12-24, version 1.7.4* This app gave my phone a damn virus!! ### 1/5 — Used to be a great app *2024-06-06* I used to enjoy this app. Friends in America would ask, where did you get those emoticons and I would introduce them to Kaomoji. But now I get ads popping up every time I try to add a kaomoji. I fully support devs trying rewarded for their hard work, but now I’m getting unskippable ads in what I guess is Japanese with no X to close and buttons that are not in English. I’m not going to click on those! I would pay for an ad free version if it was available. ### 1/5 — :/ *2024-03-13* Приложение не открывается. Просто висит заставка и всё. ### 1/5 — Ужасно *2024-02-09* Дорогие разработчики, эмодзи классные и милые но я их не могу использовать! 🥲 ### 1/5 — wasn’t expecting the antisemitism! *2023-05-03, version 1.6.8* there’s a couple of pretty antisemitic kaomojis under the ‘raise’ section.. ### 1/5 — Um *2022-02-05, version 1.6.4* I didn’t even get to open the app uh it just sent me to the verfacation page and it wouldn’t let me download I’m on a ipad ### 1/5 — Instant full screen ad *2021-11-02, version 1.6.4* As soon as I opened it I was confronted with a full screen ad. On a keyboard app. That's an instant killer for me. Deleted instantly. Don't trust them to follow the Ask Not to Track either based on their ad practices ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — It's so nice and cute there's lots of kaomoji and lm enjoying (｀･ω･´)ゞ *2026-08-06, version 1.7.4* 10/10 ### 5/5 — SO AWESOME NEVER ENDING???!!! *2026-08-01, version 1.7.4* I LOVE !!!

By far, I get minimal ads, and i get NO “premium” “get +++ version” nothing! No subscriptions. Just so straight forward. Lots of little faces! W APP ### 5/5 — REVIEW FROM A KAOMOJI ADDICT!!! *2026-03-16* I LOVE to use these emoticons, I use them a lot as a silly fun way to express feelings while chatting, or to use these symbols to decorate your phone! I do that with my lockscreen （＾ω＾） You can copy & paste these right to your device, and use them anywhere you want!!! There are COUNTLESS categories of expressions and I just know within this app YOU ARE GONNA FIND THE PEEERFECT ONES to add some faces to your day!! (THIS SOUNDS SO SPONSORED, ITS NOT I PROMISE GUYS IM JUST A PERSON WHO EAT SLEEPS HOMEWORK FUN REPEAT) Thanks for reading!!!! TAKE CARE (ᗒᗨᗕ) ### 5/5 — love this app! *2025-12-27, version 1.7.4* This app is easy to use and off it doesn’t work you can just copy the text! And dosent need full access to your writing unlike facemoji. ### 5/5 — прекрасно *2025-11-15* мне очень нравится!!! спасибо большое!! ### 5/5 — Uau *2025-10-19* Uay --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
