Custom pictures I found diy but I can’t add them other than that I love everything about it it’s just that ### 4/5 — So far it’s good *2025-10-29, version 1.1.4* I like it and all, I just wish I could customize the mask and draw my own pattern, I also wish it could sync with Spotify. ### 4/5 — Great! Just a tiny flaw. *2025-10-28, version 1.1.4* Overall it’s a great mask and has a great app to control it from, it just has one thing missing in my opinion. The one thing that’s missing to me is creating a design, I don’t want to always upload or take a picture, I would like a tool to create what I want instead of that. If you do hear this, please add a tool like that, it would make my day. ### 3/5 — Ok *2025-10-28, version 1.1.4* My music doesn't work for the mask only the ones that came with the app also the DIY doesn't work for me ### 4/5 — 1 issue *2025-10-26, version 1.1.4* Songs don’t work ### 4/5 — Good but could be better *2025-09-13, version 1.1.4* Easy to add ur own pictures but the most disappointing thing is the option for the microphone sound to light function. You can only use the pre programmed awful options that no one would ever use as it’s so so so bad . Nonsense rubbish patterns . This should be changeable. On the plus side I comfortably wear this on and off all night with ease unlike 95% of Halloween masks out there that u can probably wear for 5 minutes before ur head feels like it’s being cooked . ### 3/5 — Good but there are some problems *2025-06-15, version 1.1.4* So there is a music feature but you can’t play a specific song you choose and the BoyWithUke eyes don’t blink so they need to add those to features and I would give it 5 stars ### 4/5 — Needs more features! *2025-05-14, version 1.1.4* I think it’s very cool, some faces are very creepy which is great for Halloween. I love the image feature and text, audio feature! I think we need the ability to use GIF images / animations / video to play on loop. Also sometimes the motion detector decides to put itself on which can be a little annoying. But despite this it’s cool :) just need more stuff! ### 3/5 — Mask *2025-02-24, version 1.1.3* How do I make the eyes for the boywithuke faces eyes stop moving ### 5/5 — I love it so much *2025-01-19, version 1.1.3* It it’s so good it was the best thing I’ve ever got it is so cool:) ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — The ability to upload a photo per the instructions does not work *2026-08-25, version 1.1.4* I will reconsider my rating if this is resolved ### 1/5 — App never leaves 50% *2026-06-25, version 1.1.4* I can see my mask but the app never loads! It is stuck at 50% HELP! ### 1/5 — MASKS ALWAYS FLIPPING CHANGES CAUSE OF HAND MOTIONS *2026-05-30, version 1.1.4* I TRY AND FLIPPING MAKE VIDEOS BUT IT KEEPS CHANGING ONE SPECIFIC FACE THAT I DONT LIKE ALL THE TIME! I HATE YOUR MASKS EVEN I WANNA BREAK IT! DONT EVEN BUY IT IF YOU WANNA GET A BUGGED APP AND A BUGGED MASK AND I CANT EVEN GET A REFUND AND I TRIED EVERYTHING TO FIX IT I WISH THERE WAS NO HAND GESTURE IN THE FIRST PLACE I WANNA BREAK IT AND LEAVE IT OUTSIDE TO ROT! I PAID 200 DOLLARS FOR ONE MASK THAT GAVE ME MENTAL ISSUES DONT BUY IT, AND FIX YOUR MASK! ### 1/5 — Needs update *2025-10-26, version 1.1.4* DIY mode does not work anymore dont see all mask faces on app for example boy with uke so you need to scroll manual with button on mask cycle through all 30 faces kinda defeats purpose of app. ### 1/5 — DIY does not work *2025-10-23, version 1.1.4* DIY screen does not show any options. App does not work on iPhone. ### 1/5 — A total scam *2025-03-05, version 1.1.4* The app won’t work with the mask even after connecting it and the diy stuff only works for a minute before randomly swapping through the default stuff in the app don’t buy the mask it’s a total waste of money ### 1/5 — It doesn’t work it doesn’t sync. I guess it only worked for a year, huh? *2025-02-11, version 1.1.3* I like to do for one Halloween no it doesn’t work ### 1/5 — Download woes *2024-10-31, version 1.1.2* I cannot even get the app to complete downloading onto my device!!! ### 1/5 — Orrible app *2024-10-31, version 1.1.2* No funciona a la distancia 🤢🤮🤢🤮🤢 ### 1/5 — PLEASE MORE CUSTOMIZATION TO DIY⚠️⚠️⚠️ *2024-10-26, version 1.1.2* Please add a function to be able to add videos in DIY because adding images one by one and looping it doesn’t really work that well. I’m happy with everything else but the only thing bad is the lack of settings in DIY. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Love it *2026-05-20, version 1.1.4* This was really cool and i do wanna try to request a update: maybe you can make it have photos from phone gallery for it to show on the mask ### 5/5 — Awesome *2026-03-15, version 1.1.4* App is easy to use and no ads ### 5/5 — BOYWITHUKE IS A GOOD ARTIST👍 *2025-11-05, version 1.1.4* Now: bought the mask only because it had the Boywithuke mask filter, I have to say this is one of the best investments of the year, no regrets, but not quite sure why my mask switches faces constantly, but with the app it doesn’t do that, so I gotta say: SUPER! amazing app, no regrets, love the diy, super cool how you can play the music, but I use Spotify not Apple Music, but is very good anyway, love it, and Boywithuke is a good artist too, I also love how the Boywithuke filter does the two moons thing, it’s so cool, I don’t see any problems other than those lil thing, but is fine anyway with the app, that can basically control every thing, so I say… : This is my Best Buy ever of the year,⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ stars is what I give this app, really good, also the app is ment for phone, it works on mobile just a tad bit squished but Great non the less, thx for the awsome app!!! ### 5/5 — It was pretty good *2025-11-01, version 1.1.4* I wore this for Halloween on a hiverboard and it went great. It gave a spooky theme and I could switch it to mess with people. #notabotbtw💀 ### 5/5 — Cool! *2025-10-11, version 1.1.4* I can change the picture on my screen with a gesture! :) At the beginning it could be a little tricky though ### 5/5 — Топ маска *2025-06-20, version 1.1.4* Очень классная маска можно управлять с телефона ### 5/5 — Guide on how to import songs *2025-06-15, version 1.1.4* Hi, i have a mask like this and using shining mask app is amazing but i just have one question.
