Basically it’s like the 3d Ava doll but its name is Mia. The Ava 3d doll game is lost media. This Mia doll game is not lost media… Yet. I suggest you don’t download this game! Thank god that the scary glitch is not here from Ava 3d… also when she gets in pajamas in both she literally t poses tho.. ### 2/5 — Pls read before downloading *2025-12-29* It’s like the 3d Ava doll but it’s not, it’s newer and less creepy but still a little creepy. Basically it’s like the 3d Ava doll but its name is Mia. The Ava 3d doll game is lost media. This Mia doll game is not lost media… Yet. I suggest you don’t download this game.. ### 2/5 — not the same as Ava!!!! *2025-12-28* in Ava you get some free stuff but in this Al other free stuff isn’t free anymore!! You can’t even give her bath or let her swing , and the coco paint my dress picture you can’t even play the coco princess is outdated!!! Can’t play that either!! The only reasonable answer for Ava to get removed was because the game had an SDK and it needs to be updated regularly or else it will be a risk to your device and without proper management the sdk file can collect data that violates privacy regulations on the app store so it’s possible that Ava the 3d doll had and SDk.. BUT STILL GIVE US BACK THE FREE STUFF!! AND MAKE IT EASIER TO GET FLOWERS!!! ### 2/5 — Emotional *2025-08-08, version 1.1* It’s broken the store items like flowers and vegetables every time i click on it , it sends me back to the home screen ### 4/5 — Fun, but there's just one minor bug. *2025-08-06* So when I was putting Mia to go to bed, when she went to her bed, she was t posing, please fix this. ### 3/5 — Not The Same? What happened to Ava the 3d Doll? *2025-08-01* Ava the 3d doll is basically the original version of this game, the model is different and some of the gameplay isnt the same. Aka:Small details in the cover screen, pay wall, no glitch when ava was sleeping which is understandable, but i feel like that was what made this game…this game. ### 3/5 — This is a knock off *2025-07-10* Ok so what the helly is this game and now u have to pay? But like they copied Ava the 3d doll and now Mia my new best friend? I don’t get it? Why can’t they bring Ava back I miss her and she brings me so much nostalgic when I have that app anyways I still have it in my app history but I don’t know anyway bye ### 3/5 — Not the same..🩷 *2025-07-06* Okay so I think that Mia is like the newer version of Ava. I was able to re download Ava thanks to iCloud u can do this by going onto ur profile and pressing not on this device. Anyway we have to pay more compared to Ava’s game. Also Ava was the original and more nostalgic but I know they were probably trying to remake the game. Personally I miss Ava 3d doll but they tried. Is it just me or the last time they updated seems similar to when Ava was removed or before she was removed? Thanks for reading Ava I miss you ### 2/5 — Something I noticed *2025-07-04, version 1.1* Something I noticed is that the room I’m similar to Ava’s room and Mia has all the outfits like Ava and Ava has a swing and Mia does so does this tell us that Mia is Ava’s sister or something cause she does the same dances as Ava ### 2/5 — What the heck *2025-06-24, version 1.1* So why did she just t pose when she was going to bed and changed to her pjs ### 3/5 — Crashes really often *2025-02-11* Probably because it’s for older devices but it crashes every time you try to move anywhere or purchase the seeds. I just wanted to relive the past haha ### 2/5 — Ok game... I guess *2024-07-04, version 1.1* I think Mia is cute & all but I hate how I can't do anything bc I have 2 pay 4 it which I think is kinda annoying. ### 4/5 — This is a copy *2024-06-02, version 1.1* This is a carbon copy of Ava the3d doll ### 2/5 — don’t know what to put here tho *2023-08-02* I loved I mean loved playing this game as a child but lots of things happened it’s not the same as it used to be like one • it was originally named Ava the 3D doll now it’s Mia ur new best friend? • it removed most of the buttons I remember • u have to pay for the bathroom and the swings? I don’t remember paying for any of that except for the plant seed and the food and that wasn’t even real money •I miss the long blonde hair girl we had before not some ponytail little girl • I don’t like that little map choice id js rather have the buttons for to go outside or bathroom(which we can’t even do anymore) Things aren’t js what they were and I feel like a lot of ppl r upset from playing this new version cuz ik everyone misses the old one Ok ya it has the features for when ur in the room like dancing kissing little mini games and all that but still old version was better and I feel like a lot more ppl would play if u bring back the old version with ava ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — SOOO BAD PLZ NO! *2026-08-03* So it’s not like Ava Ty because Ava was so scary and. Disturbing! Like when Ava sleeps and we left SHE WAS WAKEING UP LOOKING AT US OR MAKE FACES! but for Mia it’s the same room and the painting🤔 is this the same Ava or.. a different one now because there’s no more glitches so is this a new one of Ava🤔because thank you for no glitches, but also dislike replacement😢🤔 ### 1/5 — There’s something wrong with the app!!!! *2026-03-26* I download this game and a few days later when I was playing everything froze for a sec went I was gonna click what you can do with Mia or Ava whatever but now every day it is like this coco play always make some scary apps even coco plays man I have to be careful with my cousins because they could might play these girly games I will rate coco play 1/10 or 0/10 and even it hacked my I pad but it okay now ### 1/5 — $5 FOR A SWING AND BATHROOM? *2025-08-09, version 1.1* $5 IS TOO MUCH FOR THIS SMALL GAME, WHY SELL A LOT OF GAMEPASSES, THAT'S TOO MUCH FOR THIS SMALL GAME ### 1/5 — Not the same :( *2025-07-21, version 1.1* So I remember Ava the 3d doll but it got removed just bc of a stupid glitch:(( ### 1/5 — 𝓦𝓱𝔂 𝓭𝓸 𝔂𝓸𝓾 𝓽𝓱𝓲𝓷𝓴 𝓵𝓲𝓽𝓽𝓵𝓮 𝓴𝓲𝓭𝓼 *2025-07-06, version 1.1* 𝓦𝓗𝓨 𝓲𝓼 𝓸𝓷𝓵𝔂 𝓽𝔀𝓸 𝓻𝓸𝓸𝓶𝓼 𝓯𝓻𝓮𝓮 𝓪𝓷𝓭 𝓽𝓱𝓮𝓷 𝓽𝓱𝓮 𝓻𝓮𝓼𝓽 𝓶𝓸𝓷𝓮𝔂 𝔀𝓱𝔂𝔂𝔂𝔂 𝓘 𝓽𝓻𝓲𝓮𝓭 𝓲𝓽 𝓪𝓷𝓭 𝓵𝓲𝓴𝓮 𝓲𝓽 𝔀𝓪𝓼 𝓶𝓸𝓷𝓮𝔂?
