Meh

I had this app on my very first I-pod and I hadn’t had it for a while so I downloaded it again and I forgot how bad it was. Mimic mode is terrible it doesn’t mimic you mouth at all. And what else are you supposed to do on it except mimic mode. Also I’m not sure what the concept of it is I mean you talk and it doesn’t really do anything. I would definitely NOT RECOMMEND THIS APP!!!!

Monkey having a mental glitch.

Aww man. Everyone enjoyed this , posted on fb and such. Now , as has been said before, pauses turn into 15 minute pauses. You’d think, we paid so could fix it or say something.

Buggy

This app is very buggy and doesn’t work properly. Seems like it would be fun but just a waste of time and money.

FAQ

What does the Talking Monkey app do?

The Talking Monkey app features an adorable virtual pet that listens to everything you say and repeats it back in a funny voice. It can also mimic music and other sounds around you, providing hours of amusement.

Can the app make the monkey's lips move?

Yes, if you want the monkey to move its lips in real-time, similar to its appearance in the movie 'This is 40', you can click the 'Mimic' button located in the bottom left corner of the screen.

How can I share videos made with this app?

You can record everything the virtual pet does and create your own Talking Pet videos. These videos can then be easily shared via popular platforms like Facebook, YouTube, Twitter, or through email.

Is this app suitable for children?

Absolutely. The app is designed for hours of fun and is loved by both adults and children. You can even use it to read stories to your children at bedtime, making it a delightful experience for them.

What are the requirements for iPod Touch users?

For iPod Touch owners, it is important to note that your earphones must have a microphone for the app to hear you speak. The iPod Touch does not have an internal microphone, so external audio input is necessary.
