It’s not the Koi Pond app that used to come with your iPhone. Just still shots. What a bust!!! ### 1/5 — I wish I would have read the other review *2019-04-20, version 1.4* This is horrible a waste of 99 cents! I thought this was the old Koi pond. The photos shown is deceptive ### 1/5 — Awful *2019-04-04, version 1.4* Truly awful... it’s just screenshots and looks terrible! ### 1/5 — Crappy *2019-04-03, version 1.4* Wow, what a rip-off, this is literally the worst app I’ve ever purchased, thanks for nothing, do not buy this koi pond app! ### 1/5 — Don’t buy this *2019-02-26, version 1.4* It’s nothing like the old Koi Pond by Blimp Pilots. Such a shame & now I’ve lost my money. This is a sham because they made it look like the classic & it’s not like that AT ALL. ### 1/5 — Listen to David!!! *2019-01-19, version 1.4* Waste of time. Apple should remove from store. ### 1/5 — App Store *2019-01-11, version 1.4* What happened to old Koi Pond!!!! This is a ripoff! APP store to not offer this. I feel cheated. I’d like a refund !!!!!! ### 1/5 — Fraud *2019-01-03, version 1.4* Suddenly the old Koi Pond came up with an error message requiring me to update. I did so. The new version is pure, unadulterated junk. Only 99 cents, but the principal is the same. Unbelievable that Apple would sanction this useless, dis-functional fraud of an app. Do NOT buy it. Caveat emptor. ### 1/5 — Do not buy *2018-12-23, version 1.4* I feel this should be removed from the App Store for deceptive selling techniques. The screen shot presented of the app is not what you get. ### 1/5 — Not the interactive pond, just fish video *2018-11-23, version 1.4* Thought this was the old Koi Pond app, since the icon was the same one I used to have. It’s not the old app at all and the description is not what it really is. It’s just some small video backgrounds you can use for backgrounds. If you are looking for the app that you can touch the fish and scare them away, this is NOT it!! ### 1/5 — Koi pond HD *2018-10-30, version 1.4* This app is terrible. I want the old one back. Pictures show up on the screen but even after you press full screen, the pictures don’t fit the screen... and it gives you half of two different pictures. ### 1/5 — I miss the old app *2018-09-23, version 1.4* Don’t waste your time (and money) on this piece of garbage. It used to be a great little app until it stopped working. Then they “fixed” it, and now it’s just stupid junk. ### 1/5 — Got robbed by someone fishy characters *2018-09-22, version 1.4* Why do they need my photos the original app was the one and only koi pond l know you’re not ashamed of yourselves or you wouldn’t have put this mess out here you got me. ### 1/5 — Wish I could get my buck back! *2018-09-11, version 1.4* This app is not worth the cost. Should be free or maybe the developer should pay me! ### 1/5 — NOT the koi pond your looking for! *2018-07-13, version 1.4* This is NOT the awesome interactive koi pond of the past. Same picture (fraud?), but not the same app. This app is a live wallpaper app., nothing more. Don’t waste your $ 👎🏻 ### 1/5 — Not what you think *2018-05-29, version 1.4* Not the same Koi Pond even though the description says it is! So mad. Such a waste of $.99. Was just trying to get my koi pond back! I don’t want videos or a screen saver I want what was described as the Koi pond like the old app!! ### 1/5 — Not what is advertised *2018-04-23, version 1.4* I had the old koi pond app on an iPod I used for years. Updated my device and it no longer worked so I downloaded this and it’s not the same at all. This just gives you some live wallpaper options there is no interaction with the pond. ### 1/5 — This is awful *2018-04-04, version 1.4* I loved the original version of this app. This new version was a total waste of money. ### 1/5 — Not the same app. Read reviews! *2018-04-04, version 1.4* Obviously not the same app that I was expecting. This will really teach me to believe the 1 star rating. I hope the developers of this “update” really need all the money they are receiving for deceiving people. Petition to change the logo of the app. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Scam *2024-04-22* Just like the other review on here I thought this was an old app I used to have because of the icon. Don’t waste your time or money on this crappy app. ### 1/5 — Pay more , get less *2022-01-12, version 1.4* What everyone else says. The original was zen. This is zapped. ### 1/5 — Total crap *2020-10-13, version 1.4* Icon same as another app!! ### 1/5 — Absolutely disappointing *2020-05-14, version 1.4* This is nothing like it was, I’m deleting this app now ### 1/5 — Koi Pond *2020-04-20, version 1.4* Loved the old version. This version....not so much. I liked changing backgrounds and feeding the koi. ### 1/5 — Horrible app do not buy not even worth 99 cents *2019-11-09, version 1.4* Horrible app do not buy not even worth 99 cents ### 1/5 — review *2019-09-22, version 1.4* do not bother with this version BRING BACK THE ORIGINAL had to tap a star, really not worthy of any stars ### 1/5 — This needs removed ASAP. *2019-07-24, version 1.4* As others have mentioned, I read the description and purchased what I thought was the old koi pond app. The product description is a bold lie. Apple needs to remove this app ASAP ### 1/5 — Do not buy! *2019-06-12, version 1.4* This ap icon is a fake! It does not work like the old one with the realistic water and sounds. I want my money back that I paid for again! Do not buy this ap! ### 1/5 — Not the classic, waste of money *2019-04-29, version 1.4* I thought the low reviews must be due to a more sophisticated, modern audience that wouldn't appreciate the simple, classic koi pond app. This is a rip-off, complete with stolen icon and boot/splash screen from the original. This is a collection of fish video that I guess you could set as wallpaper, but what it really is, is a bold attempt to get your $0.99. Don't fall for it like I did.😠 ## Most praised reviews (2 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Very good app just the name needs to be Changed *2020-07-21, version 1.4* It’s a very good animated background app it does work just the name needs to be changed because people think it’s an actual Koi Pond app and are being scammed.(I also was looking for a Koi Pond app and found this and noticed it was a animated background app but it was ad free so I used it Plus I paid for it) ### 2/5 — Koi pond *2017-05-04, version 1.4* What happen to the old Koi Pond?? I liked being able to feed the fish. I like the relaxing sound track. I miss it. I see I'm not the only one. Everyone feels ripped off by this wallpaper scam crap. I'm so annoyed I actually bothered to complain and write this review rather than just blow off the .99. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
