Under the title of this app it says (Let your dog chase the laser) how is your dog supposed to play with the laser. ### 4/5 — good *2025-02-22, version 4.5.2* it worked ... for me but my dog was not doing anything because i don’t think he liked it but i would play this everyday ### 4/5 — Ok *2023-11-01, version 4.5.2* My dog just licked my screen and lost interest but the mini games are fun ### 3/5 — 😢😂 *2023-08-27* Mon chien en a rien a faire par contre moi je m’éclate à lui montrer comment sa marche au final sa fait jouer que moi 3 étoile pour le fun ### 1/5 — Awful *2023-08-03, version 4.5.2* Took me about 5 minutes to go thro the options to play the game because of the adverts. Oh, wasn’t worth the wait. ### 1/5 — The most pointless game *2023-07-16, version 4.5.2* Two minutes of ads before you even select a game for you pup. Don’t waste your time. ### 1/5 — Rubbish...it has potential👍 *2023-07-08, version 4.5.2* My dog didn’t even know what to do he was just staring at me and my brother although if my cat wasn’t missing she would probably chase it.The point is it’s made for dogs not cats and my dog just stared blankly at me.In conclusion,I’m not saying all dogs wouldn’t play with this app but most dogs don’t understand it,this is why I called it rubbish.😡 Thank you for reading as this is very long and I hope you can improve the app. ### 1/5 — Worse game ever *2022-12-31, version 4.5.2* Tryed with my puppy she didn’t even care. She just stood there. She hated it!and to get different things for them to tap. You have to watch 1 million ads seem to get a different background like this game is so bad every 30 seconds you got a watch a dumb add DO NOT GET ### 3/5 — 3 stars *2022-11-19, version 4.5.2* It works but way to many adds. It’s really annoying ### 2/5 — Good game but *2022-10-29, version 4.5.2* I got this game for my dog but he wasn’t interested in it. He is not the type of dog who chases lasers. So please add other stuff that doesn’t involve lasers. Anyway this is still a good game but not the type of game for my dog :) ### 2/5 — I LIKE YOU CUT G *2022-08-08, version 4.5.2* My dog did not react he looked at the and sniffed my phone and walked away I give this app a 3/10 because they have so many adds and it’s not even realistic I do no recommend this app ### 2/5 — Too many adds *2022-07-26, version 4.5.2* Is there a way to turn off the sound? ### 1/5 — Game or ad mind game? *2022-07-22, version 4.5.2* 98% ads, basically there’s an unskippable ad after every time you touch the screen. Don’t even download, not worth your time! ### 1/5 — Terrible! *2022-06-15, version 4.5.2* I waited through 4 ads and still no game. Who are you people? What a waste! ### 1/5 — LIXO APENAS LIXO *2022-03-22* nenhum dos meus cachorros gostou e usou é um lixo muito ruim n vale a pena ### 1/5 — Creator real this *2022-03-16, version 4.5.2* I wanted a game for my dog and he’s not interested the only times he hit it was when he trued to sniff the lazer your game is bad.So I hope your game gets banned. ### 1/5 — Awful *2022-02-08, version 4.5.2* The minute I tried to use i my phone rang constantly with stupid talk and Sex ads. ### 3/5 — Title *2021-12-27, version 4.5.2* It isn’t what I really expected but it is pretty cool ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Dumb *2026-03-30, version 4.5.2* Horrible app. ### 1/5 — Why this is terrible *2025-12-19, version 4.5.2* My reason of being 1 star is because doesn’t work properly so your dog will be just walking around the room instead of actually playing it is useless and a waste of data. ### 1/5 — Do not download this app *2025-10-11, version 4.5.2* There is no way to actually play this game it is a maze of 10 minutes of add replays it never starts the game. This app is a scam to make you watch advertisements. There is no actual game. ### 1/5 — Useless *2025-07-03, version 4.5.2* Apparently the developers are under the impression that dogs enjoy watching ads at least as much as people do. I’d give it a - 10 if possible! Never made it past the multiple ads to even try it out on Fido. Waste of time and energy. ### 1/5 — Trash *2025-05-17, version 4.5.2* Forces you to watch an ad on startup and can’t get past the ad ### 1/5 — BRO *2024-07-21, version 4.5.2* I thought they would make a better app for dogs I’ve been a dog lover forever but my grandma’s dog wasn’t interested at all and I wish there was a real laser like not one that slices but like One that they chase and one more thing too many ads!!! 😡🤬😡🤬😡🤬😡🤬😡🤬😡🤬😡🤬😡🤬😡🤬😡🤬😡🤬😡🤬😡🤬😡🤬 ### 1/5 — Que droga o pior app que eu já baixei *2024-06-07* Meu cachorro ódio ### 1/5 — False advertising & annoying *2024-05-16, version 4.5.2* No laser whatsoever. Adds at every touch. -5 stars. ### 1/5 — Too many ads *2023-10-13* This game has so many ads. Also it’s boring as hell and a dog would not understand 2/3 games. Don’t download!!! ### 1/5 — only advertising *2023-09-24, version 4.5.2* only advertising. Turns on for 3 seconds, advertising pops up for 20 seconds. deleted ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — I tapped one star but they all lit up *2024-09-19, version 4.5.2* If you like to watch ads this is the app for you. You select a pointer then watch an ad. Then pick a background watch 2 more ads. Go back to background pick screen. Whatever you do you then see multiple more ads. There is no game to play, just ads to watch. You keep repeating the pick outs expecting a different result. That is the definition of insanity: repeating the same actions over and over expecting different results. Well you really got suckered into this app believing it is a game. Haha laugh is on you. ### 5/5 — Why does everyone hate this? *2023-03-10, version 4.5.2* My dog Pumpkin LOVES this, it makes her little corgi brain so happy, if your dog just stares at it, its not the games fault, your dog chooses to watch. The only thing is it had an ad and Pumpkin was so confused ### 5/5 — Funny *2021-12-20, version 4.5.2* My dog just stared at it but she did start jumping on it it’s so funny but it’s kinda hard to get your dog to look at a screen. But it’s very funny to see your dog do that ### 5/5 — Thanks! *2021-08-30, version 4.5.2* My puppy was actually putting his mouth on the tiny laser balls and collecting it he lost interest after collecting 4 but I rate this game a 6/10 for one of the games keeping my dog interested for a couple minutes. Unfortunately the 2 other games didn't work for my puppy. ### 5/5 — Funny! *2021-07-03, version 4.5.2* My dog has a really cute face when he looks down and he also looked down at the laser so he looked really cute and then he started chasing it for some reason ### 5/5 — Why does it have so much hate? *2021-01-31, version 4.5.2* If dogs can’t see in 2D explain to me why my dog had such a fun time chasing the laser! I’m pretty sure he could see it as he got it so many times! I’d recommend and over all is a great app! ### 5/5 — It’s okay! *2020-05-15, version 4.5.2* I don’t get why this has such bad reviews. My dog followed the laser dot and seemed to have fun. Nothing wrong with the app! ### 5/5 — Very funny! *2020-03-02, version 4.3.3* I like how there is two ways to play this game one for dogs and one for us humans! I think this is a 5 star instantly and a FUN game to play! ### 5/5 — Amazing game but why human game? *2020-02-21, version 4.3.3* Read the title ### 5/5 — The best game *2019-09-23, version 4.3.3* I like the game --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
