### 2/5 — Not usable

*2023-06-13, version 1.36*

I cannot register. I keep getting the error: "Registration Failed. Please double check your info and try again." It doesn't even show why it keeps failing. I don't see the reason and so I can't register! Very sad and disappointing!

### 3/5 — Pretty good but could be better

*2020-03-07, version 1.36*

it’s pretty nice but the only thing missing for right now is an in app/ on website option for changing the color of the playbar! rest is good, if you could add that feature, would definitely give more

### 5/5 — Best party trick ever

*2020-02-03, version 1.36*

Seriously just get one.

### 5/5 — I use this so much

*2019-12-07, version 1.36*

Love it

### 1/5 — Needs work

*2019-11-21, version 1.36*

I can’t even open the app with it not functioning at all. It force shut downs itself constantly. I’m just left with a blue screen

### 1/5 — App stopped working

*2019-11-18, version 1.36*

Tried from multiple phones and I keep getting a message saying there is no internet connection when there is.

### 2/5 — Ok when it’s working

*2019-11-16, version 1.36*

Haven’t had my tattoo for even a year and my app is already not working.  It somehow lost the image of my tattoo and now won’t work.  I’m talking with customer service about this issue but so far no resolution.  Luckily my tattoo itself is an amazing design so even if it doesn’t play ever again I still love it, but since this is why I went with the soundwave tattoo idea (to actually be able to play it) I’m going to be upset if I can’t actually do that.  So far not pleased.

### 1/5 — Not the actual sound wave image

*2019-09-26, version 1.36*

When I generated the sound wave image on skinmotion.com, the top and bottom of the sound waves are completely symmetrical. Real sound waves are not symmetrical! I work in recording and look at sound waves all the time. Anyone using this site is getting a false sound wave image. And the app is not actually “reading” the tattoo, that’s not how soundwaves work. You’re simply paying to replay the sound you already have while the app displays an animation to simulate its playing back (basically turns your tattoo into a barcode). If you want the actual sound wave image, get a recording program to view the real sound wave, and get a screenshot to your tattoo artist.

### 1/5 — Wtf

*2026-06-15, version 3.01*

Got a sound wave tattoo. Love it. Then this app/company went under 7 years ago. Then out of the blue they tried to charge my card. They're not even in business. Do not download.

### 1/5 — Avoid at all costs

*2026-02-09, version 3.01*

company went under and the app does not work. why they still have an app let alone a website should be reported to the BBB. I’m glad that the tattoo i got still looks great but there are several people who won’t be able to play the sound of a loved one because this company couldn’t follow through and no longer have a functioning app.

### 1/5 — Why is not working??

*2023-10-05, version 1.63*

I don't know why but mine is not working

### 1/5 — Lamentable

*2023-01-28, version 1.36*

Lamentable que te hagas un tatuaje de este tipo y cierre la empresa…. Ahora solo tengo un boruño de rayas en la piel

### 1/5 — Not ok to do this to people

*2023-01-02, version 1.36*

I understand the realities of business, but I never would have gotten this tattoo if I knew what a small and poorly funded operation this was. It was incredibly irresponsible and uncool for other people for you to launch a company like this when you didn’t have the ability to keep it going. I have a tattoo on my actual arm that I can’t play back and explain to people. What the heck am I supposed to do now?

### 1/5 — please fix this!

*2022-06-28, version 1.36*

Quiero hacerme un tattoo sin embargo mi tatuador dice que está fallando la aplicación ya que la hackearon.

### 1/5 — Used to work

*2022-04-23, version 1.36*

This app used to work great. now they take your $$$ and it doesn’t work at all. Sad really. It’s a near concept.

### 1/5 — Site com problemas e a foto não sobe :(

*2021-09-05, version 1.36*

### 1/5 — Fraude

*2021-01-12, version 1.36*

### 5/5 — Daddy Tattoo

*2024-05-24, version 1.63*

This is priceless! My daddy is terminal, and this is some small way I can hang on to a piece of him, thank you!

### 5/5 — It’s back and working great!

*2024-02-15, version 1.63*

Still love this app. It was down for a while but it’s back and seems to work better than ever!

### 5/5 — Not working

*2020-12-02, version 1.36*

It used to work perfectly. Lately it doesn’t work. Does not connect to the internet so It’s useless. I hope they fix it
Act: now it works perfectly

### 5/5 — Can’t say Thank you enough

*2020-11-15, version 1.36*

I have been struggling with my moms passing this year and I wasn’t sure how I was going to cope with it. I remembered seeing something about this a few years ago and I had some voicemails from her. I spliced them together to make one sound wave and it sounds AMAZING! I had a lot of technical issues and these guys were AWESOME... they tackled every problem I had and got it working. There is just no way to ever show how grateful I am!! Thank you!!!

### 5/5 — Funciona SIM !!

*2020-10-28, version 1.36*

Galera que está avaliando sem saber esse app é pago, para que funcione a leitura você deve fazer uma tatuagem com um profissional licenciado e fazer o pagamento anual para poder ser lida pelo app. Para mais informações leiam o site deles...

### 5/5 — İyi

*2020-10-12, version 1.36*

Ama 40 tl hadi oda iyi ama ayda 10 tl ne

### 5/5 — Excelente

*2020-06-07, version 1.36*

La app funciona muy bien, cumple con lo que dice, si eres de los que espera a que la app funcione sin tener un tattoo soundwave, mejor ni lo intentes, luego andas con la estupidez de que no funciona... gracias trabaja genial

### 5/5 — Best Birthday Gift to myself EVER!

*2020-02-25, version 1.36*

This is an incredible first tattoo for my Birthday. Recently lost my grandmother and I wanted to be sure she was with me. This tattoo and app is amazing! ❤️

### 5/5 — Best Tatoo Ever!

*2020-02-04, version 1.36*

I got my Sound Wave ink on 12/29/17 from Fred Giovannitti in Lewes,DE (an absolute killer artist!!). It was touch and go for a while. I had a difficult  time getting it to play.  After about a week, I couldn’t get the program to read.  I contacted customer service and Juliana worked with me. I had decided that even if it didn’t work again, I love what the tattoo signifies so that would be okay. However, I never gave up trying to get it to read. I even re-uploaded my picture (I have a friend with professional photography equipment). It seems that since my tattoo healed completely, it plays without fail. I LOVE THIS TATTOO! It’s my husband telling me that he loves me...I listened, or tried to listen, literally everyday for the about the first 18 months I had it. Now I listen to it once or twice a week. It’s the coolest ink I have.

### 5/5 — A piece of my heart is on my arm

*2020-02-03, version 1.36*

My son passed away a little over a year ago. I have Facebook videos and a live picture that have his voice but I’ve always been worried they would be deleted. With the help of Nate and Skin Motion my sons voice is with me every where I go! 
I am eternally grateful! Thank you so much!
