### 4/5 — Неплохо

*2026-08-08*

Неплохо,но некоторые игры вылетают,а так все нравится)

### 4/5 — the translator is a bit crooked

*2026-07-31*

I'm thrilled I found this app! It works well, and it's free, thank you for it! I hope it stays that way. The translator is a bit confusing, though. It's a great feature, and thank you again for it, but it's too low, making it difficult to read. It would be nice if the translation was superimposed on the original text, so it would be in the text box. Unfortunately, it doesn't translate election text. Also, the translation can sometimes be slightly crooked and inaccurate (but I'm not sure if it's the app or the phone itself that's translating). Good luck! The app is really cool, I wish you success🫶🫶

### 5/5 — So good so far

*2026-07-27*

After being doomed of never playing indie games since I don’t have a pc finding Renpy was amazing. I love how everything functioned and was well organize so I could understand. My only problem is that I hope the app soon improves its ability to run files over 1000 gb while most indie games are under that range a few of them I wished to play are above that limit and uploading takes forever sometimes it just freezes and never loads I hope to see an improvement in the future other than that the app is great.

### 3/5 — One huge problem

*2026-07-27*

Whenever you have the decision to either BUY your way into continuing to use the app and getting ads- it's literally just forcing you to buy it stp since the ad thing NEVER loads. I liked the app and now it's just useless for me, I hope no one else experienced this. 💔

**Developer response:** Coud u please update the release to 2.64, as we add one function "continue without ads if there are no ads"

### 5/5 — Wonderful

*2026-07-18*

I know what type of man you are👀, what games you’re playing on here. All around great system and very user friendly!

### 2/5 — no ads available

*2026-07-12*

It worked great until I exed out to take a break and then when I came back it said to keep playing i need to buy unlimited or watch an ad. it said that no ads were available, so my only option is to buy and it has been like this for weeekkkssss

**Developer response:** We are working on a hotfix to add more ads support .Thanks for your report.

### 4/5 — Вылеты

*2026-07-09*

В целом приложение отличное, даже встроенный перевод есть. Но некоторые игры почему-то просто вылетают. Например New Horizon запустилась, пару предложений прочитал и происходит вылет

### 2/5 — Can’t play games anymore because of bugs

*2026-07-08*

I was able to run 2 games and play them at first but now I’ve tried everything and it only says ad unavailable. No matter how long I wait or what I do there is no ad to watch and add games. I waited 4 days and redownloaded the app twice and nothing changed. I’m annoyed because it was working so well at first and now I can’t play.

### 5/5 — Would recommend getting!

*2026-06-29*

I honestly love the app it works quite well!! I do have a problem here and there with the text blending in with the background but it’s rare when it happens but besides that it’s amazing and works great!

### 5/5 — Definitely needs some work

*2026-06-18*

This app is solid, but I feel like the customization on it is lacking a bit. I would love to see the ability to move the side bar more. The menu and back button are extremely helpful because the home bar on my iphone makes it hard to press the visual novel’s back or menu buttons, but the other buttons from the renpy pocket’s UI are kind of in the way sometimes.

**Developer response:** Got it, we will add this function in next week.
