The voice message is confusing. **Developer response:** Amy Mia T - thank you for your comments and I'm sorry you don't find the app easy to use. We've modelled the UI on a messaging app - like WhatsApp for example - with the intention that it should be familiar / intuitive to most users. Your feedback is really valuable, however, and we'll take another look at the UI to see where we can improve. (addendum): thinking about this some more ... it's curious that you say the app is "not usable". We are aware of a challenge with some of the larger font sizes (Settings -> Accessibility -> Display & Text Size -> Larger Text). We support Accessibility, but when the text gets too big it can become unusable. I'm not sure if that's the problem - sharing this comment in case it helps. We will continue to investigate! ### 5/5 — Real2 review *2024-10-17* I found this app to be very engaging and I am looking forward to The Ghost Whisperer coming out, looks interesting - when will it be available?” **Developer response:** Fushazi Family - thank you for trying Real2! At the time of writing, we’re in the final stages of production for The Ghost Whisperer - aiming to make it available on the app from 26 October 2024 - just in time for Halloween. Enjoy! ### 5/5 — Real2 Delivers! *2024-10-17* Wow, I highly recommend Real2. I very rarely leave reviews; however, this is deserving of one! Real2 delivered the best interactive storytelling app.! I’ve purchased three stories, “Power Play,” “Call the Doctor,” and “Artifice.” I can’t wait for their Halloween story, “The Ghost Whisperer.” From the moment you click on the app until you leave, you will be part of the interactive story. As a boomer (1946-1964), I found the app to be user friendly and the writing brilliant. **Developer response:** Terri and Evie - thank you so much for a great review and for purchasing all of our stories so far! I really hope you enjoy The Ghost Whisperer! ### 1/5 — Paying for subscription? *2024-07-05* You want me to pay the subscription and make a slow text? Yeah that’s not happening. That’s just part of a scam and I rather do it for free than pay the subscription. That’s just scamming and stupid. **Developer response:** xYuitoWildx, Thank you for taking the time to try out the app and send your feedback. It’s a few months since you left your comment and I wanted to provide an update. We’ve just released v2 of the app and we no longer offer subscriptions. You can play “Artifice” for free and if you like it, you can pay once for any of the other stories and play as many times as you like. We’ve also eliminated delays between messages so we’ve directly addressed both of your concerns. For anyone reading this … we love getting feedback - good or bad! Either here in the App Store; or you can send a message via our website (www.real2.co.uk); or if you prefer to comment anonymously you can use the user feedback feature in the app itself. ### 5/5 — Obsessed *2024-03-23, version 1.0.1* I absolutely love this app !!!! Everything feels so realistic and there’s so much detail I got lost in the story !!! ### 5/5 — Absolutely AMAZING - Out of this world play *2024-03-20, version 1.0* this app brings reality to you in a whole different way. It’s easily accessible and puts you into the world, with different storylines and characters. Can’t recommend it enough if your looking for a new, innovative gaming experince ## Frequently asked questions about Real2 ### What is Real2?
