### 5/5 — BEST SCROLLING APP

*2026-08-27*

been making gizmos for a while now and I’m glad Pocket kept what made it fun. Excited to see what’s next 💪

### 5/5 — Make literally anything

*2026-08-26*

You can create anything you can think of with this app, it’s fast, fun, and free! Also the community on here is awesome!

### 5/5 — Yo you guys should def follow me

*2026-08-25*

My username is TheRexyRexxers

### 5/5 — Fun app to showcase creativity

*2026-08-25*

This app is a quirky way to explore creativity, your own and others’. It offers new ways of digital play, no matter what your age. (And a much better use of your phone to just relax for a few minutes than mindless scrolling!) It is also a helpful way to learn by trial and error how to give good instructions to AI.

### 5/5 — Obsessed

*2026-08-25*

I have a design background but no coding experience & this app helps me bring my ideas to life!! 

I’ve been able to create so many interactive pieces of art, games, and tools that I would have never tried to white knuckle on my own. 

My creativity is literally exploding inside of this app community… & the cool part is I get to scroll through a feed of so many others experiencing the same phenomenon!!

### 5/5 — Vibe Coding & Traffic !

*2026-08-25*

What an awesome way to vibe code to create games and get traffic to them which are probably the hardest parts of writing games which just reduced the barrier for everyone !

### 5/5 — So good

*2026-08-25*

Incredible at all levels

### 5/5 — surprisingly addicting

*2026-08-24*

tried it out and cant stop scrolling!

### 5/5 — This game is honestly really fun and ad free!

*2026-08-24*

It’s fun :D

### 5/5 — Interactive and creative

*2026-08-23*

I love making and playing with Gizmos because it feels engaging and stimulating compared to other social media which is more passive.

### 5/5 — Impressionante 😍✨

*2026-08-22*

Best platform to deploy games and interactive content ever! as a programmer and 3D dev i should say thanks for this! 🙏🏻✨🌎🌱📚

### 1/5 — AI SLOP

*2026-08-30*

There’s a rule of the Internet that if you’re not paying for a product you are a product all this is is for AI data training to see what kind of stuff you’re taking pictures of how you react to things what you like what makes sense so on so forth

### 1/5 — Gizmo

*2026-08-23*

where is it

### 1/5 — OG GIZMO APP IS BETTER

*2026-08-22*

You killed the og app so you could make this one and it isn’t even good

### 1/5 — Another Meta product to steal your data and your attention

*2026-08-21*

Meta (Facebook) acquired the team behind Gizmo and relaunched their tech here as Pocket. Before you install, look at what you’re signing up for: every gizmo you make, every one you scroll, every tap and tilt is all free training data for Meta’s AI. You’re not the customer, you’re the unpaid labor teaching their models what holds human attention. And Pocket’s own App Store privacy label shows the haul linked directly to your identity: location, search history, browsing history, your photos and content, contacts, and device identifiers. There’s no meaningful opt-out. You can’t even create a profile without a Meta account, and you can’t delete your profile without deleting your entire Meta account. A cute toy game feed is the bait. Your behavioral data, and a better Meta AI you’ll never own a piece of, is the catch. Don’t download it.

### 2/5 — Too much regurgitated content.

*2026-09-02*

The app has potential, the best among its competitors so far, but the only issue I have is the lack of originality. Every other post is a game you’ve already played that’s slightly altered so the reposter can call it theirs.

### 3/5 — Nice concept

*2026-09-09*

Too much hallucination

### 3/5 — Why?

*2026-08-24*

Why are you not in profile my games from gizmo??? I want back my games 😩

### 4/5 — Suggestions for online multiplayer

*2026-09-08*

I love gizmo and i love this game but pls allow all networking and external websites or allow online access with your own server

### 4/5 — Good, but why meta

*2026-09-04*

It’s good, but that’s becuase it’s gizmo with meta branding slapped on it. It’s lost its community and is much jankier. Og gizmo will always be better

### 4/5 — What is missing

*2026-08-30*

I really like this, the only thing I’d say to add is a messaging feature just like instagram, and it will become way more popular & useful

### 5/5 — Major feature missing

*2026-09-07*

Hello Meta/Pocket Team,

I’m a member of the Pocket partner program, and I’m currently unable to fulfill part of my contractual posting requirements because the in-app Instagram/Facebook cross-posting feature does not work.

This is not an isolated one-time failure on my end. I have updated the Pocket app multiple times across several days and repeatedly attempted to use the cross-posting functionality. It still does not work.

Because cross-posting is a required part of my partner program deliverables, this has become more than a normal app bug. A feature provided by Pocket is directly preventing me from completing the requirements of my agreement.

At this point, unless there is an account-specific issue affecting me, I have to assume other creators may also be unable to successfully cross-post to Instagram and Facebook through the app.

I need this issue escalated and documented as soon as possible. I also need confirmation that I will not be considered noncompliant with my partner program requirements for posts that cannot be cross-posted because the required Pocket functionality is broken.

If there is an approved alternative method for satisfying the Instagram and Facebook cross-posting requirement while this feature is unavailable, please provide the exact procedure.

This needs attention from the team responsible for the partner program and the Pocket cross-posting functionality, since it directly affects contracted creator deliverables.

Thank you

### 5/5 — Creative Outlet

*2026-08-30*

It’s the perfect creative outlet for people with tight schedules or lack of experience. A way to create, share, and make things as a community
