Would be far more awesome with a library of backgrounds to match the monsters. ### 3/5 — so awesome in theory, but so slow *2017-09-29, version 2.2.2* I love the concept of this app. I wish I had the patience to play with it more, but it's just so incredibly laggy. it's really unfortunate, because I've found it incredibly fun and creatively inspiring. ### 4/5 — Great app for fun *2015-11-13, version 2.1.0* A neat and fun way to express yer inner monster! I share my on Instagram and folks dig em😍😻👻 ### 2/5 — All this can be... *2015-10-26, version 2.0.2* yours for $18 (with premium package). Not to mention the huge flaws (can't scroll saved monsters, on screen item edit is buggy), it's a sticker pasting app! I tried to ask the developer about the fact that only the top six monsters can be accessed before the rest are saved too far down on that page to be seen (with no way to pull the page up) but was ignored outright. I guess I should just hand my money over and keep quite. Other than that it's super fun for a few minutes, and then kind of ordinary. ### 3/5 — Cool and Cute *2014-05-10, version 1.5.3* Not much of an artist but this is a fun App. There are things that needs to be added such as men's pants and shoes. It would also be great if we could group the objects as one so we could move that one object around as a whole. Also, some features do not always work when needed, so there are bugs to be fixed. Finally, I really do like this app and will be using it a lot. ### 5/5 — Great! *2013-11-21, version 1.5.3* It's been very well designed so the app is intuitive but there's a simple one page explanation as well. Great for kids to create with, and lots of opportunities for making stories. ### 5/5 — Just cool creative fun! *2013-08-21, version 1.5.3* Enjoying this everyday. Great little pick-me-up! I can't wait to use it to make fun photos for friends. ### 5/5 — Fun *2013-08-18, version 1.5.3* But only draw back is, I can't find the monsters I made previously. I like one that I made but can't go back to it. ### 5/5 — Cool, Creative, Fun *2013-08-06, version 1.5.3* What can I say? Having a great time playing with this monster-making app. Highly creative! You can take what you make and import into other apps for backgrounds and color ' cuz you won't find that here. Still, excellent for what it does best, helping you create cute little characters! ### 5/5 — So much fun! *2013-08-06, version 1.5.3* I love Monstering up my pictures and sharing my vacation with monster photos! Also having some freedom to customize monsters is fun too! ### 5/5 — Awesome *2013-06-30, version 1.5* So fun! ### 5/5 — Neat. *2013-06-23, version 1.5* This app is a blast. Very fun. ### 5/5 — creative and fun app *2013-06-20, version 1.5* Daily Monster is a fun app for older elementary school kids that can be used to learn about art apps or as a reinforcer. There is an initial tutorial, and it can be accessed later by the tapping the help button in the menu. You can either make your own creation starting from a dot of ink that you splatter with a tap and then add features from the parts tab, or make an instant monster - which is fun to see how random parts come together and also serves as inspiration. There are many effects to be explored, and played with. Once done you can share with friends and even print to a personal T-shirt if you know how to do photo transfers. ### 5/5 — The Daily Monster Maker *2013-06-20, version 1.5* The best thing to do when you sit and need to be carefree and mindless for a moment. It always brings a smile. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Not working at all! *2020-06-08, version 2.2.2* Was recommended to us and a new ipad so no reasons of old system or other apps to compete with. Had fun blowing paint and making monsters on paper for real but my daughter was excited to upload her splotches to turn into monsters on your app. If working sure will have given lots stars.. ### 1/5 — Doesn't work, fails on load *2015-10-07, version 2.0.0* Loved the previous version. Haven't managed to create a monster with this version because it cannot download the monster parts. Very disappointed. The one star is purely given on sentiment, should actually be zero because it doesn't work! ### 1/5 — Great creativity app *2013-09-10, version 1.5.3* Love! Can't stop making monsters! ### 1/5 — Could be better *2012-12-09, version 1.5* This is really unwieldy app. It could be fun, but it's not because it doesn't work as well as it should. ### 1/5 — Good theory, bad practice *2012-09-30, version 1.4* Many of the features such as instamonster, start over and undo simply don't work. You press the buttons but nothing happens. Very disappointing. Don't but unless it gets updated. ### 1/5 — Daily monster maker *2012-02-11, version 1.3* I really wanted this to work but it isn't having any of it. I am so gutted. I love your art work though. ### 1/5 — Awful. *2011-09-01, version 1.0.2* With an iPad 2, I am generally immune from crashes, and have always felt bad for people who experience them on other devices. I now know how they feel. This app crashes every minute or so. Import a photo, crash. Save, crash. Select a tool, crash. I have yet to complete even a simple monster. This app is half baked and raw, and is not fit for public consumption. Caution. Prepare to be extremely frustrated! ### 1/5 — Rubbish *2011-08-10, version 1.0* Could be a good app but it constantly crashes. ### 2/5 — Terrible *2018-03-15, version 2.2.2* This game stinks ### 2/5 — Good idea, but... *2015-11-27, version 2.1.0* Good idea for an app, but it has too many issues. The biggest issue is lag. With everything you do, there is a delay. When trying to close a drawer, it takes a few seconds and my swiping and tapping several times in several different areas before the drawer closes - I'm not even sure which method works. You can't even draw a curved line with the regular, round pen and the scribble pen comes out as a trail of dots. It's a pain to erase, too. You can only undo once, which with all the tapping I had to do, several lines needed erased. Then the whole process would start again when I tried drawing again. I got so frustrated that I closed the app with only one ink splotch and some scribbles of partially erased random lines. If the issues within this app were fixed it'd be a 4 or 5 star app as the concept is rather original. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — It’s an interesting idea creator *2021-01-31, version 2.2.2* I’d say it was really good for monster idea creation. ### 5/5 — So fun *2019-01-17, version 2.2.2* You get to unleash your creativity without the mess!!!

It is definitely a game that you should get ### 5/5 — It be awesome *2017-04-19, version 2.2.2* I'm very happy I got this game ### 5/5 — So much fun! *2016-09-18, version 2.2.1* A fun and creative app! ### 5/5 — Wow!

As an artist an a teacher, I'm always looking for ways to incorporate creativity into our curriculum. I already have plans for the Daily Monster in my 5th grade classroom! Thanks and God bless!
