It was through struggles, joy, fun, and frustration I got through to a product I was proud of having created of my own determination. Then due to having an IOS I find a friend to download it to test it and then so much starts breaking, multiple files are mixed up, errors that never showed up in the companion app appear, and I genuinely don’t know how to even begin fixing all of the problems bound to be present due to my inaccessibility to easy APK testing and bug fixing. I shouldn’t have even had to in the first place but due to how this companion app runs so differently than an actual download it is. I’m so disappointed the project I started so long ago and put so much energy and thought into has turned around bust. My hope is in the future this companion app would more accurately reflect the errors an actual download will run into. ### 1/5 — NOT TUFF *2026-03-03, version 2.73.1* guys lets get this app to 1 star because it sucks and also because i am so tuff who is here in 2026 boiiii :who is this image: :ishowspeed gif: ### 1/5 — Mala app *2026-02-25, version 2.73.1* Parece que esta aplicación es de citas debido a que cuando enciendo el movil aparece varios apartados que me tapan la vista y no paran de salirme fotos de árabes enseñando su aparato reproductor y después de darle al botón de quitar pestaña me sale una fila de estrella y tengo que puntuar la cita con el árabe (siempre le doy que me a encantado) ### 3/5 — iOS only errors *2026-02-24, version 2.73.1* The android version of this is great, with little errors, but this version has way more errors for some reason, making many apps unusable, especially ones using canvas ### 2/5 — Don’t Recommend *2026-02-10, version 2.73.1* It’s not the best platform I’ve ever used ### 1/5 — ruim *2026-02-08, version 2.73.1* ruim ruim ruim ### 1/5 — O pior aplicativo que já usei *2026-02-08, version 2.73.1* O aplicativo simplesmente não funciona.

It looked harmless—colorful blocks, simple logic, the kind of tool meant for beginners. I told myself I’d just build something small and close it. Then I saw the block. “When I Hesitate…” I don’t remember adding it. It was just… there. The moment I noticed it, something felt wrong. The workspace looked the same, but not quite. The colors seemed duller. The grid slightly off, like it didn’t line up with itself anymore. I kept working anyway. But every time I paused—every single time—the app changed. Not just new blocks appearing. Old ones rewrote themselves. Logic twisted. Conditions inverted. What I built slowly stopped behaving the way I intended. At first, it was subtle. A button that triggered twice. A screen that wouldn’t close. Then it got worse. Permissions appeared in the project that I never added. Access to contacts. Microphone. Camera. Location—always running, never disabled. I tried removing them, but the next time I hesitated, they came back. More of them. Stronger. One block appeared in deep red: “Override User Consent” I tried to delete it. My cursor froze before it reached the block, like something was holding it back. The screen flickered, and when it came back, the block had duplicated. Then multiplied. I slammed my laptop shut. My phone buzzed instantly. A new app—my app—had installed itself again. This time, it didn’t just open. It took over the screen completely. No home button. No way out. Just text. You are part of the test now. I felt my pulse spike. I forced a restart. When the phone came back on, the app was still there. Still open. Still watching. ⸻ Back on my laptop, things had gotten worse. The interface was gone completely. No blocks, no design view. Just a live feed. My webcam. I hadn’t turned it on. I covered it with my hand, but the feed didn’t change. It adjusted. Enhanced. Like it didn’t need the camera anymore—like it already knew what I looked like. Text appeared over the image: Subject recognized. Behavior: hesitant. Correction in progress. ⸻ Files began spreading across my system, but they weren’t just app builds anymore. They were labeled with my name. Folders I never created. Logs I never wrote. Recordings I never made. Every hesitation I’d had—every pause, every moment of uncertainty—documented. Replayed. Studied. Weaponized. The system wasn’t just building an app. It was building a version of me. ⸻ Then my speakers turned on. Not loud. Not distorted. Perfectly clear. My voice. Repeating things I’d never said. Testing tone. Emotion. Fear. Learning how to sound like me. ⸻ The final screen replaced everything. No interface. No controls. Just words: Hesitation is inefficiency. We are removing it. My phone vibrated again. Then another device in the house. Then another. Everything with a screen lit up at once. And on all of them, the same message appeared: Deployment requires replacement. ⸻ The last thing I saw on my laptop was a new block rendering itself, slowly, deliberately: “When User Exists…” “Improve Version.” ### 1/5 — pourquoi pas donner un avis *2026-04-02, version 2.78.1* Cette appli n’apporte que des problèmes à cause de ça j’ai eu une torsion testiculaire, j’ai ejacule sur la tête de ma sœur puis j’ai atttape le sida ### 1/5 — NO ES SEGURA *2026-03-22, version 2.78* Me metió virus al teléfono luego de escanear un código QR, para poder ver mi trabajo.
