## What is Type n Walk FREE?

### 1/5 — Dumb app, I don’t recommend it

*2024-05-13*

Why can’t you text on it! It’s so dumb. I’m deleting it and I don’t recommend it

### 3/5 — I feel like everybody is harsh

*2023-08-26*

This app is supported for iPhone 4 and 5 not iPhone 6 and up, the larger displays and new code changes ruined the app I’m sure it was great.

### 2/5 — Not Very Good

*2020-04-15*

Unlike other reviews here, it prompted for the camera access. Although the camera was working, it is very small and doesn’t work the best. Overall the app is ok, but I wouldn’t recommend. It would be better if you could text instead of just type.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2019-04-25, version 3.1.1*

Launch app
Says it needs camera permission and to give permissions in privacy\camera

It doesn’t show as an app that requires permissions

Fairly pointless

Insta-delete

### 1/5 — Garbage doesn’t work

*2019-04-24*

Absolute garbage.   Won’t work without camera access (obviously) but it never prompts to grant camera access, just a warning and since you can’t change the settings it’s useless.   Zero stars!!

### 3/5 — Don’t know

*2019-03-15*

It asks me to allow camera access but when I open settings, it hasn’t even requested access. This is the first step; I can’t use the app until I’ve done this. 🤷🏽‍♀️

### 1/5 — don’t show

*2019-02-10*

it doesn’t show up in privacy/camera to give it permission

### 3/5 — For Developer

*2017-03-31*

Hi! I'm just like everyone else, you really need to add this to IOS messaging. Not everyone is a social media freak and we have lives out of social media.

### 1/5 — Ugghhh

*2015-06-19*

This thing does nothing but take notes it's useless if it was connected to iMessage it would be better don't get it. It's useless!!!!!!!!!!!!!

### 1/5 — TERRIBLE!!!😡

*2014-12-19*

This app is a huge disappointment!! There is now way to send what you type as a text!!! It's a good idea for the camera,but I want to text not just type a sentence for no reason!!!:(
