It won’t let me do anything. It won’t let me swipe out of it or out of it so yeah. I do not suggest buying this if you do not wanna waste money. ### 4/5 — This game I have had it before I think you have to pay for it so I’m not taking another chance *2026-08-02, version 1.3.0* This game is awesome. I mean translator, but when I Set it into it and stuff, I mean that’s not what I meant when I first got it. I was very very I was like oh yeah this game did they go to game track but when you first walk in you have to pay for it I do not like that or my review and this is actually best game translator. It might work for every single dog and cats, but there could be other games up there that are better than this translator. This theme can be very, very different. ### 3/5 — Dog favorite dog noise *2026-07-29, version 1.3.0* I want a real call from my dog. He is a mix and he is four years old and I really miss him because I don’t get to see him a lot and he’s so cute so thank you ### 1/5 — No go *2026-07-19, version 1.3.0* I tried the app and clicked on the noise were 2 dogs are hugging and played it in front of my 5 year old Britney but all she did was lift up her head and stare at me like I went insane while I held my arms out waiting for a hug ### 1/5 — You said that everyone needs a translator and you don't have to see people face for it *2026-07-08, version 1.3.0* Me and my friend could use the translator because we need parents Face ID and they wouldn't let us and then it wasn't fun on that and we couldn't do anything ### 5/5 — I like it *2026-06-28, version 1.3.0* I like it ### 1/5 — 😭😡 *2026-06-27, version 1.3.0* I came here so I could talk to my pet and that’s only for premium people.
