### 5/5 — BEAUTIFUL.

*2026-08-21, version 2.8*

okay i’m done gatekeeping, this app is perfection. first of all, the single payment for full access is a GODSEND. you rarely find great deals like this nowadays so THANK YOUUUU 🥹 you can change the theme, add photos, make a script, everything!! i’ve been using this app for like two years now and i can’t think of anything to complain about, and i’m a very critical person. if you’re thinking about installing, DO IT!!! you will NOT regret it.

### 5/5 — SO GREAT!!!

*2026-08-07, version 2.8*

When I get money I’m def paying for premium! I had this app a little bit ago I had to delete it due to lack of phone storage but I spent so long looking for this app again and I’m so glad I found it, this is so fun and really helps my boredom hehe :))

### 5/5 — Stories

*2026-08-04, version 2.8*

You can make fake texts and you can prank people

### 1/5 — Chat

*2026-07-26, version 2.8*

Mình ko bt sử dụng như nào ạ, mong đc hướng dẫn

### 3/5 — A few suggestions

*2026-07-23, version 2.8*

Part of the reason I like this app is that it has the announcement option where you can type things like “*user has left the group chat*” unlike other apps. However, I wish you could somehow remove the arrows once you’ve decided what side you would like the message to be on. On a similar note, it would also be cool to have different chat bubble options instead of being stuck with a square. As much as I love the announcement feature, the lack of other features that other apps offer doesn’t make it worth it enough. I also cannot figure out how to get out of dark mode, but that may just be me.

### 1/5 — FIX YOUR GAME

*2026-07-17, version 2.8*

Your game has too much bypasses

### 5/5 — I beg for only one feature

*2026-07-16, version 2.8*

I use this app without pro, and I can live with that. The only thing I could wish we had for both normal & pro is that you can select delete multiple messages at once. It’d be an ACTUAL life changer

### 5/5 — Awesome Sauce

*2026-07-14, version 2.8*

Really cool app love all the features and how many character u can use at a time! Also how realistic it is to an actual group message. I also am glad the feature of putting a picture form your camera is not money. Just I lil mad that u must pay to have more than 50 for a scene but I luv this anyway and totally recommend it.

### 1/5 — Génialement génial  mais quelques ajustements seraient à faire

*2026-07-11, version 2.8*

Au début je cherchait une app comme texting story, qui était devenu assez nul car tt devenait payant. G donc cherché sur ChatGPT une app gratuite comme texting story et il m a proposé ça.J etait pas sûr que ça allait me convenir, mais au final c génial!!!!
Seuls points négatifs : c anglais, c pas comme texting story ou au fur et à mesure ça fait une vraie conversation avec les bruits et tt, sinon c tt

### 5/5 — Good app

*2026-07-01, version 2.8*

This app allows me to write all the characters I like since I have such a wild imagination and a favoritism for names it also let you write so many different projects and like lets you type with them and imagine you’re actually texting with your Bestie and you can control both sides. Also another thing I like is that you can make it into a script where you can talk and then make it a script. If you like doing that stuff too I’d recommend this app for all those people like me one thing I would add to this app, though is not charging so much for upgrades, but that’s all.
