### 4/5 — Love this game

*2022-07-25, version 1.0.58*

This game is really handy if your just getting started with snap ships. It tells you everything about each ship and witch uju tech piece you will get. I do have 2 complaints. First is that I wish they had the knew snap ships like the hammer jaw and claymore. And second I wish you could make your own ships in the game and then get the sets that will give you the pieces you will need to build the ship you made yourself. Other than that the game and the product “snap ships” are well made and fun. Can’t wait for the board game.🤪😀😇😎👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👋🏻👋🏻👍🏼👍🏼🫡

### 4/5 — Great game short story

*2022-03-26, version 1.0.58*

I like being able to make new ships and the ar mode is really cool but the story is really short and I finished it in 1 hour

### 4/5 — Good app

*2021-12-25, version 1.0.58*

Great app but needs to be updated for the new ships.

### 4/5 — Pls improve

*2021-11-06, version 1.0.58*

You really NEEEEDD to add more content; for example: adding a feature to make it so you can scan your HANDMADE WITHOUT INSTRUCTION ship an scan said custom snap ship and use said abilities and make more dog fights for the battle map

### 5/5 — Suggestion

*2021-06-05, version 1.0.58*

I personally think that there should be a customization option in the app

### 5/5 — Snap Ships App.

*2021-05-20, version 1.0.46*

This is an awesome AR game. It’s very realistic in my book and you can only improve on it more. Can’t wait to see the new updates and improvements to this already great game. Please keep it totally free!!!!! This is truly a 10 star AR game. I play this game all the time and never get bored. That is a great testament to the creators of this game. I can only give this game a five star rating which is the highest, but again, it’s a 10 star in my book!!! Great Job!!!!!!!

### 5/5 — Love this!

*2021-05-09, version 1.0.46*

The app is great! I love the AR, and I would also love for everyone to be able to scan their own creations to add into the app so that everyone can enjoy what someone else has built and expand their fleets. And I would be even happier if there was a flight mode for the ground vehicles, like on a moon or planet surface. Same as the ships that fly, but with the land/ground vehicles too.

### 5/5 — I love this app game thing

*2021-02-21, version 1.0.46*

I love the game app and it’s gust need some updates on the crashes lately almost everyday I get three crashes

### 5/5 — Amazing app and I have some ideas...

*2021-02-17, version 1.0.46*

I love this app and it’s given me a lot of inspiration but I have some suggestions: use good builds from Instagram to use as transmissions I don’t know if I’m not getting transmissions but it would be nice if you added more fore people who don’t have access to Instagram of Facebook also it would be nice If you could build your own ships and post the online at a place where everybody can look.

### 5/5 — Awesome, but the ground vehicles need gameplay!

*2021-02-14, version 1.0.46*

The game is awesome and I’ve gotten so many build ideas, but the thing that disappoints me is that ground vehicles and drones don’t have gameplay options. The absence of this has confused and disappointed me so far, but otherwise a great game. Nice job team!

### 5/5 — I’m sorry

*2021-01-30, version 1.0.46*

At first I thought the game was a big action based game but from your reply I now know that I was thinking the game was way bigger than it was supposed to be

### 1/5 — New set not added

*2024-03-15, version 1.0.58*

If you make all of the new Snapchat sets, why won’t they add it? I mean come on there’s a Mac there’s a new freaking complex ship as well as a Mac tank for the complex as well as a new Hawken ship for the Forge and more than that. so put the freaking sense in the game as an update. or else you’ll get a negative review.

### 1/5 — Wish to not need the toys.

*2023-05-11, version 1.0.58*

Do we really need to have the toys to scan…? I’m gentle.

### 1/5 — THERE IS NO GAME

*2022-07-13, version 1.0.58*

wheres the gameplay? 90% of it is on autopilot. the only thing you do is fire at dead space with a few enemies that you will never hit unless you have missiles and a small time limit. I actually thought you scanned the toy like you would with amiibo's or the cards that came with the 3DS. Nope, the AR is cool i guess but its pretty pointless, testing the 3D model is neat but still no point as its extremely limited, most likely why nintendo stopped making cards cause theres very littleEntertainment of this feature. I played games with far better gameplay and challenge, although too difficult, but this poor excuse of a game makes no sense.

### 1/5 — Cool concept but crashes and unusable

*2021-04-04, version 1.0.46*

Cool concept to tie in with the toys. But the app is unstable. It constantly freezes and must be manually closed to be restarted. Horrible implementation and app devs need to fix ASAP. In its current form can not do anything

### 1/5 — Waste of storage

*2021-01-22, version 1.0.46*

Don’t get this app it is a waste of storage and here’s why. First it’s annoying that you have to see how to build the ship before you actually play the game! Then once you get into the game it’s to hard and you can never destroy an enemy ship! Now I like snap ships and I’ve built a few but this game was not what I was expecting.

### 2/5 — It’s… meh.

*2025-04-27, version 1.0.58*

It was okay, but VERY boring. Maybe add something where you can build custom ships in game?

### 2/5 — What?

*2021-06-21, version 1.0.58*

It says “scan the systems” without telling me where they are on my ship

### 3/5 — New addition

*2025-09-01, version 1.0.58*

You should add Custom ships

### 3/5 — Great but two things

*2022-05-19, version 1.0.58*

My problem is that,A you cant build in game and B you can’t fire the quad barrel machine guns that are on the tridents drones, unless you press the drone button. Add these and i will give you five stars

### 4/5 — Great app but could be better

*2025-11-20*

This a really cool app since I’m really into snap ships. There’s a lot of very cool features but I have a suggestion that would make this app SO MUCH COOLER. Suggestion: Add games to this app. A snap ships game would be INSANELY cool. I do have one problem with the app which is that in the profile where you can keep track of the snap ships you have, it doesn’t have the newer snap ships like the Claymore and the Hammerjaw, only the older ones like the Gladius and the scarab.

### 5/5 — 5 stars but…

*2025-12-27, version 1.0.58*

The game is great the auto flight could use improvement but over all very fun but here’s the but I have all 3 of the komolexes new ships but they have not been added to the app so please add the new ships.

### 5/5 — I love this game

*2023-08-12, version 1.0.58*

I love it. Awesome 
The game need some more Snap ships

### 5/5 — Awesome

*2023-08-05, version 1.0.58*

Nice app

### 5/5 — Awesome

*2023-03-11, version 1.0.58*

Downloaded just to check, wasn’t expecting much, but if you have the toys this is amazing! Multiple ship designs that are different to the ones provided in the instruction books, and very easy to follow steps to build. Great overall

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2022-07-24, version 1.0.58*

This app is so cool. The Augmented Reality is also cool and how you can shoot the weapons in AR. The missions are also a cool addition. Another really awesome thing is the hangar were you can see other builds that you can build as well and some of them I gotta say are way cool. And finally I like how you can also check off the builds you already have. 

Update. 
Can you make something where you can make a build then like post it on the app. And scan your custom ships

### 5/5 — Great complain and no major bugs But……

*2022-07-12, version 1.0.58*

I would like to see more features such as virtual building of custom ships (IE Designing a craft with unlimited parts and the getting instructions and seeing the kits needed) and the newer waves of ship like the drones and the mechs

### 5/5 — Great Companion to Snap Ships Play

*2021-10-17, version 1.0.58*

Not only do you get fully-animated rotatable instructions on standard builds, but you get them for fan-built customs as well. 

Seeing the ships come to life pew pew action is very cool. There’s a VR function where you can place ships in and interact with your virtual space through your device’s camera.

Looking forward to having the new Wave 3 ships added to the app.

### 5/5 — Amazing companion app

*2021-10-17, version 1.0.58*

This app is a great companion for young and old to use when building with SnapShips. Not only does it include a wide variety of instructions for alternate builds you can’t find anywhere else, but it’s AR and mini-game modes are chocked full of details and world building to really immerse in the world of SnapShips. The 3D movable builds in app also let you fully rotate, assemble, and disassemble ships for easy building and to show off some unique and creative techniques to build ships that can inspire your own builds to the next level.

### 5/5 — Can you add this

*2021-10-15, version 1.0.58*

The creators should add a builder not pre made ship builder keep that please

### 5/5 — good game oct/10/2021

*2021-10-10, version 1.0.58*

Snap ships is a good game but as of right now they don’t have the new ships otherwise this is a very good game and I really like the AR
