### 1/5 — 18+ only !

*2026-06-14, version 1.5.3*

I don’t think I have to explain.the characters can be inappropriate..weird scenes can be done.and the female model I don’t think I have to explain.report this.

### 3/5 — It’s fine but here’s the problem

*2025-10-02*

I have downloaded and deleted this app several times because there is a new problem. I used to be able to pose the clones and new characters with no issues. I am unable to rotate the ankles of the clones and the new characters that I am allowed to use without the ankles suddenly elongating. This problem occurs when I make the new characters and clones taller in the morph tool kit. The first original character doesn’t do this but any clones and new characters have this problem. In the beginning I had a problem with rotating the characters that got solved by deleting the app and reinstalling it. This solved the rotating problem so I thought that it would solve the new problem. It didn’t. This wasn’t an issue before and I know that it got an update. It seems that the new update caused the problem. Please, in the next update fix this issue. I plan on getting the full version since it’s not expensive, I get to keep the paid version without monthly payments, and I love this app despite the new problem. I don’t want to have to delete and reinstall it again since it’ll take away my purchase. If there is a new update coming out please fix this issue.

### 5/5 — Tied for the best

*2025-08-27, version 1.5.3*

I have all the pose programs, on PC Android,and IPad.  I bought Pose Maker Pro on android and IPad.  What makes it top tier are the morphs. What could make it better is no 3d export, and has not been updated in a long time.  Still I use this app regularly.

### 1/5 — The app ain’t good

*2025-08-06, version 1.5.3*

If there was no pro version it could’ve been better 2% of the game is free and the stupid 98% is just pro version and im sick of these stuff that says “TrY fOr FrEe PrO vErSiON” and it makes me pay 899$ DELETE THE PRO VERSION NOW

### 2/5 — Need more realistic clothing

*2025-08-04*

Need more realistic clothing like high heels. More realistic hairstyles is needed.

### 4/5 — It’s fine but here’s the problem

*2025-07-11*

I just downloaded the app and it works fine. It’s a bit glitchy. It has a problem with the clones. I don’t want to spend money to have multiple saves, which is a ridiculous thing to have to do since the app generates money with its ads. Instead, I used clones, which are a good workaround, except for a couple of things. First, it causes a glitch in which nothing works, and then I have to go out of the save or even the app itself. Then, whenever you reset the clone to the default pose, the clone goes back to being in the same spot as its original counterpart. Instead of going off to its own place.

### 4/5 — One of the best posing apps

*2025-03-07*

I don't know why this has such low reviews as it's easily one of the best apps for posing and modeling out there. First you can morph your models, which is something none of the other apps I have found let you do. You can create all manner of characters this way and get very elaborate with it. It has a fully morphable expression mode. Models are easy to pose. You can actually get nude models. You have a variety of shapes at your disposal to make scenes with. If you are creative you can get very elaborate. There are some cons. Your choices of clothes and hair styles are very limited. While I haven't encountered many serious bugs, it does have a few quirks that you have to work around. It could use a UI redesign and some updates to make it better.

### 5/5 — 更新中文

*2025-01-31*

希望能更新中文，加入一些服饰，如盔甲、女仆装、裙子、龙等模型，可以导出obj格式模型

### 5/5 — Sois/ eres el mejor

*2025-01-03, version 1.5.3*

Esta app la utilizo desde hace años y me gusta mucho, le falta en una próxima  actuación un morphing licántropa de cara y pies y una rotación en los dedos para coger objetos. No hay quejas .gracias por existir,seguir así.

### 1/5 — Unrealistic

*2024-09-30, version 1.5.3*

Posing the hands are a pain in the butt this app would be amazing if the poses actually looked good and if only there was more to do when posing the body parts and faces especially on the more “realistic models” please developers fix this app
