*2025-01-15*

### 4/5 — You know what I’m pretty surprised it’s like the Chromebook version but without:

*2024-05-30*

The electrical stuff but overall it’s great

### 3/5 — Amazing! But…

*2024-02-10*

How do I get the new materials? Please respond.

### 4/5 — Update possible?

*2023-10-24*

I have this on my android, and I love it and so does my son.  So I bought it for his iPhone and am saddened that it hasn’t been updated with the 20 new materials with circuits. Any chance for an update on the iPhone?  I don’t want to ask for a refund. But he really loves it for the newer interactions. <3

### 4/5 — NEEDS THE SAME THINGS AS COMPUTER

*2023-09-17*

i have this game on pc and mobile and the pc version is SO MUCH BETTER and nneeeeedddsss the update

### 4/5 — Great game, its just like the android version. One issue.

*2023-04-13*

I used to play on my android Moto and i loved this game, i’ve always played these types of simulations. But, since I've gotten an iPhone i was unable to find a game like this that doesn't require thousands of ads every time you reset. So im grateful that you’ve obviously gotten rid of them because of this being 3 bucks, but the issue is there are a couple bugs. When i make a setting, the rotate option (the option that makes the particles turn the direction your phone rotates) is off 100% of the time because it can get annoying, yet it resets the setting every time i close the app. It’s no big deal, but i would like it fixed in the upcoming update. Overall, great game and i would recommend it to my friends!

### 4/5 — Amazing! But…

*2023-02-12, version 1.4*

The only reason I am writing it at 4  and not 5 is because it’s not the same as my friend. My friend has the same app, but mine is extremely annoying for 2 reasons. 
1. when I press to but somthing on the screen, it’s supposed to appear were my finger appears right? Well mine appears about and inch AWAY from my finger.
2. The gravity is very sensitive. One tiny lean from my ipad and all the movable stuff like water, dust, or acid goes flying to the side 

I paid money for this app, expecting the super cool addicting, stress free game, he had, and well, I got this. Please fix it if it’s a bug.

### 4/5 — Will it get updates?

*2022-12-17, version 1.4*

I am really loving this- it's just like the Android version. However, the original did get an update recently and I was wondering if this version was going to get the update?

### 5/5 — Amazing game

*2022-02-26, version 1.4*

This is an amazing game. It does cost money but it’s so worth it. It has no ads which is amazing and has infinite possibilities of creations. I only wish you added more things such as holders

### 1/5 — Still no electrical

*2025-08-26*

It’s insane that we don’t have any of the electrical things on iOS when android has had it for a long time, update your game already, it’s been years

### 1/5 — bro

*2025-03-06*

i like the game but i really want electrical

### 1/5 — Bugged on iPad

*2024-08-23*

Everything falls from the right side of the screen to the left side of the screen instead of top to bottom no matter which way the iPad is rotated and the touch tracking seems messed up. The toggle rotate option does nothing? I really like this version and all the options but the support is not great considering it’s a paid app 🙁

### 1/5 — Broken on ipad

*2023-10-30*

THIS GAME IA BROKEN ON IPAD!!!

### 1/5 — No good

*2021-12-23*

Is not same as sisters

**Developer response:** what exactly is the problem? Do you really think the app is 1/5 stars? that is incredibly low, and seems unfair :(

### 2/5 — Very good but…

*2025-04-08*

It’s missing the electric stuff and the gyroscope is messed up they should make an option to turn it on or off. Every time u put any liquid or power like sand it falls to the side on my screen instead of the bottom part of my screen when my phone is tilted the right side. It has been 3 years and still no update

### 3/5 — Update the game pls!

*2025-04-05*

I used to have this game on android and I loved it so much. I bought it on apple expecting the full game, but it’s the old version. I really enjoyed the game on android and it makes me sad that it isn’t updated on IPhone. Dev if you see this please update it! I really wish I could rate this higher, but it’s not the full game. I reached out to the dev on google and they said that they decided to not update it on iPhone because they don’t have enough help to work on it. I understand why they can’t update the game, but it would be very great if it could happen. Smellymoo you can do it!!

### 3/5 — Good game, but bugs ruin it

*2024-12-01*

This is a great game, but there is a bug that needs to be fixed. Whenever the screen is rotated, the gravity and graphics are messed up (example: everything falls to the left side of the screen). I would give five stars if the bugs were fixed.

### 5/5 — No Electrical stuff

*2025-03-08*

I love the game but I don’t have the electrical stuff my friends have androids and they have it, can you please add it?

### 5/5 — No electrical

*2025-01-11*

So my cousin showed it to me and he doesn’t have an apple phone but he has all the electrical things and a ton of other random things but I don’t have it and I am wondering if on apple phones there are not as many ingredients. It is a good game but like I said, it is missing some of the fun items

### 5/5 — Great game ❤️

*2024-08-23*

This game is great. I used to have it on my old phone and finally found it again. Paid for it twice! Wish the dev kept up with the game and adding more but I’m still happy with what we were left with 🥲

### 5/5 — Awesome.

*2024-05-13*

No words. Just awesome

### 5/5 — One of the best games ever

*2024-02-22*

You should try it out money well spent

### 5/5 — Very nostalgic!

*2024-01-15*

I love this game. Ever since 2017, I’ve played this game. It is very addicting and it’s so fun to learn what all the elements can do! It’s not extremely accurate to real life, but that can always be fixed. I recommend this game from anybody ages 1-1000!

### 5/5 — Sand:box is awesome!

*2023-05-06, version 1.4*

Awesome game, I really enjoy it (especially the explosions ;) ).

### 5/5 — One of the best games ever

### 5/5 — Great

*2023-01-13*

This app is great. After switching to an iPhone, I was pleased to find this game on IOS. This game is perfect, and the exact same as the Android version. The features are great and I had no problems paying for the app since there are no Ads

### 5/5 — Obviously best sandbox game

*2022-05-10*

SmellyMoo is a literal blessing
