### 2/5 — Bugs and crashes

*2026-07-28, version 2.1.0*

When I got into the game it just showed me this purple girl and it got so annoying I tried to go in the game again but nothing happened 😡

### 3/5 — Instructions please!

*2025-07-09, version 2.1.0*

I NEED to know if you can import your own avatar!

### 4/5 — Just one thing

*2025-05-04, version 2.1.0*

I don't like to log in so I'd like u to add a option where u could import a vrm through ur files because I'm too young for vroid hub but please add a vrm option the only app I use is vroid studio

### 3/5 — Hidden Potential!! Letter to Devs

*2025-03-09, version 2.1.0*

The seems very nice but let’s try to improve this app with several features such as

- hand tracking 
🫴 | By adding hand tracking with the utilization of iPhones LIDAR hardware for handling in low light conditions as we as positions. 

- upgrade avatar file size to 200mbt for avatars with detailed data.
🫴 | By upgrading the avatar file upload size limit would help users expand on their creativity.

- Upload Wizard 
🫴 | Having an upload wizard, it’ll allow users access more advanced options when uploading their avatars such as adjusting what exact shaders they want such as instead of PBS-shaders they can have the option to select another shader that best suits their needs. 

🫴 | This can even allow users to adjust certain settings when trying to upload their avatars such as changing the bone count or how many poly count.

### 4/5 — Puede mejorar

*2024-09-02*

Si pudieras crear tu propio avatar tendría más descargas

### 4/5 — it can track

*2024-08-08*

it works on ipad. woohoo. tho it only tracks face, speech is difficult and emotion and hands are too… i appreciate it a lot though. not gonna use for anything professional anyway so it’s more than fine (free!!).

### 3/5 — Potential…but.

*2024-04-20, version 2.0.4*

I’ve been looking for vtuber apps for free and saw this listed as one of the best ones that was easily obtainable, and i downloaded it with high hopes. The facial tracking works amazingly for me, but after the initial “connect to devices on your network” and “allow camera” there are no buttons within the app. I have a preset model, and i cant customize anything. The screen is blank except for the model, and i tried as many swipes, clicks, key combinations, even hand signs in my camera, and nothing came up. Kind of disappointing, please fix.

### 4/5 — Its cool

*2024-03-16, version 2.0.4*

Its great but I don’t know any avatar pin codes

### 2/5 — Latest update broke the mouth movements for me

*2023-10-11, version 2.0.1*

I used this app everyday and now it’s rendered the model unable to move in certain ways, even the defaults aren’t I’ve reinstalled and nothing seems to work. It’s a shame, I loved this app :(

### 4/5 — Other Reviewers are trolls ignore them!

*2023-09-27, version 1.2.0*

I have this app, it works really well minus a few hiccups I want to recommend to be fix and maybe better UI design too. 

I love to have better control over my bend shapes on my mode when using the app. Click settings window for my model to make expressions adjustments if possible.

UI looks good at first and still is but more modern ui would be great. I love to offer funding for it but am poor and I would be willing to test out new changes for you if needed. 

Streaming mode to help lower heating of the iPhone system when in use. 

That should be it, overall I’m still testing the waters on what’s i can do and not do.

### 3/5 — Dont work!

*2023-08-25*

.

### 2/5 — Waidayo does not send OVC/VMC packets anymore

*2023-07-26*

This is like the most important feature from Waidayo but it seems that it does not send any packets to VSeeFace anymore probably an compatibility problem with the new iOS? Since i updated my phone, the features ceased to function.

Please Fix.

### 3/5 — Idk

*2023-01-15, version 1.2.0*

I have no idea how to use this app um can someone tell me how to change the avatar

### 4/5 — yay?

*2022-11-12, version 1.2.0*

I quite like the app but after a while the same character kinda gets old, it’d be amazing if we could design our own characters!! Also my character is kinda buggy, I tilted my head sideways a bit and the app completely lagged! Still, amazing app! Also think on designing our own vtubers! ^^

### 4/5 — Hi

*2022-11-02, version 1.2.0*

Hi! So I like the app so far but there’s one problem I don’t know how to do the face tracking so if you could help me that would be great!

### 3/5 — HOW?!

*2022-09-19, version 1.2.0*

It’s a good game but the fact that I can’t make it work is annoying please tell me how to make it work mine stays still how does it work on ipad and if it can’t then I’m going to cry because it looks so good!

### 3/5 — Honestly to little

*2022-07-13, version 1.2.0*

It’s good but there needs to be more characters, new map thingys, and better face tracking, hand tracking, that’s all we need really.

### 4/5 — Good, could be improved

*2022-07-07, version 1.2.0*

It would be nice if we could import the vrm from files. Also if you load the app at an odd angle there’s no way to reset the character position aside from force stopping the app and opening it again, so a button for that within the settings would be nice. Also green screen background function would be cool.

Otherwise the app functions pretty decently most of the time

### 2/5 — Quite disappointing

*2022-05-16, version 1.2.0*

It tracks not bad, but the eye tracking is horrible in this app, it would be nice to have better facial tracking too where it would detect emotions from my face. It’s lagging as hell and just extremely tedious to setup

### 1/5 — It’s Useless!

*2025-02-11, version 2.1.0*

It’s not like the Anime Avatar Creator App similar to V-Katsu’s best VTuber Software that could come with A Cheap Haptic Vest within Meta Quest VR and feature the Anime Girl with the Blue Wings, and have Meta VR Rules applied!

Where you get to design your character’s height, width weight, face, body, and dress up!

Sigh. I really miss those days, but sadly it’s not on Android 8 Oreo anymore!
Server was completely shut down! Very Disappointing.

And last time I used VRoid Website, I got my iPhone 10 Infected!

### 1/5 — This Is a scam! 😡😡😡

*2024-07-29, version 2.0.4*

When I was done doin my avatar I went to this app to load it but it does not work it was just a anime girl! This app is just a waist of time if you see this I’m just telling you I’m disappointed and hate this app!

### 1/5 — New update broke face tracking

*2023-10-11*

The newest update completely broke the face tracking and my model can’t move the mouth and the eyes are all wonky. Worked perfectly before the update :(

### 1/5 — YOU CANT MAKE YOUR OWN CHARACTER

*2023-05-24, version 1.2.0*

I thought I could make my own character but I was wrong, instantly delete the app it’s no fun to just be a character you don’t like

### 1/5 — No stars

*2023-02-08, version 1.2.0*

I got over exited. I wish i could give it zero stars, as i thought unity was a good company to trust. This app didn't track my face AT ALL. The model just sat there while i was recording and saying “Hey guys!!” And it wasn't moving. Terrible app

### 1/5 — Was working great for like 3 days

*2022-12-06, version 1.2.0*

Everything worked until today. I’ve been using it fine for about a week, and then today it just doesn’t send info to VseeFace. I tried it with the PC app as well, but it didn’t work at all. Reinstalled everything, reset VSF, reuploaded my model, everything. The ports all match and it shows it tracking on the iPhone but just dead in the water I guess.

### 1/5 — PLS FIX

*2022-08-26, version 1.2.0*

So you know you go on the App Store and find the game oh this looks cute then you download and wait after waiting you play it and you find it does nothing because it won’t track your face

### 1/5 — Good but bad:(

*2022-08-09, version 1.2.0*

Ok so when I was using the character I thought that it would let me  make my own but it didn’t and when I was right up to my camera it moved I different directions I was bummed.I’m sorry but it needs a lot of improvement and more graphics to make it better!

### 1/5 — PLEASE

*2022-06-11, version 1.2.0*

fix the face tracking its frozen

### 1/5 — Why isn’t the tracking work?

*2022-06-06, version 1.2.0*

When I take my glasses off and I move my hair it doesn’t work please fix it

### 5/5 — Great game just one thing ps this is my dad’s account

*2024-04-20, version 2.0.4*

Ok so let’s get one thing straight I am on my fathers account ok just want that to get through your thick skull and I mean the game is good but I can’t customize and switch characters witch is annoying because after a while I kinda got bored of the same character over and over so please can you fix this thanks

### 5/5 — I need new avatar

*2022-02-25, version 1.2.0*

Hi can people tell me how to have different avatars?

### 5/5 — It works you idiots

*2022-01-30, version 1.2.0*

It works YALL are just dumb I’m not even 13 and can do this like bro💀💀

### 5/5 — Perfect

*2021-10-30, version 1.1.7*

As a vtuber this really helped me a lot. I feel as though the other reviews on this app are from inexperienced people or people who don’t have the right requirements for the app (eg. iPhone that has faceid) it’s a shame the reviews have put a bad eye towards this app. I suggest watching tutorials to do with waidayo to understand how this app works :)

### 5/5 — How do we make a character

*2021-10-26, version 1.1.7*

Ok the game is cool but I want to make a character it’s just crazy how i can’t make a character

### 5/5 — Works great with perfect sync every time!

*2021-09-18, version 1.1.7*

I use this with VSeeFace and it works great every time, both on Windows and Ubuntu. I would like to have different background options as well as an easier way to import VRM models to the app in the future.

### 5/5 — If you use pc

*2021-07-24, version 1.1.7*

This app doesn't work well for pc I think veseeface is good for it I hope this helps

### 5/5 — Easy to connect, very precise

*2021-06-08, version 1.1.7*

It’s working good on my iPhone. Only issue is the menu button is missing on my iPad Pro. If you can fix, that’ll be great!

### 5/5 — nice

*2021-04-14, version 1.1.6*

nice

### 5/5 — I love that game

*2021-03-26, version 1.1.6*
