I've used the website for atleast 3 years and was really excited when the app was released. Unfortunately I have experienced quite a few issues, the multitude of ads, this random beeping noise, and frequently being rerouted to malware sites. It may be understandable that I can't enjoy this app as I wished I could. The ads can be annoying, the beeping jumpscares me, and the redirecting to malware sites make me feel unsafe using this app. I apologize, but I would not recommend using this app much.

i love this app so much. its so fun to create and be able to find artists. however there are SO many ads and they always start with sound. sometimes audio will start playing from the app without an add popup and no indication of where to turn it off. the only way i know its from picrew is because when i close the app, the sound stops.
Someone Random
So this game is very nice, theres many opinions to choose from and many cute OC's to make. But, there is an issue with the app. When I'm creating a new avatar it always sends me to this sketchy website that tells me data is in threat or something like that and I close out of the website, and it just shuts down the game so I have to find the same avatar all over again. It's very annoying.

i love using the image makers. when i can. i'm constantly clicking on makers i want to use, only to immediately lose them forever because an ad that takes you out of the app plays. i do mean Forever too, as i've yet to see a single maker i clicked again unless i've saved it. can't save them even if i had the available bookmarks though. i might go back to the browser version if this keeps happening :/
I am Tired
The ads are INSUFFERABLE. Anytime you navigate away, you get an ad. Every other action, an ad. Tired of visual ads? Theres audio ads. I tried to make 1 character and got redirected to google for the same fake antivirus ad 5 TIMES, each time opening 2 tabs of the same ad. 5 TIMES in less than 10 minutes! And the worst part is that, since it navigated away from the app, I got ANOTHER ad. Also while signing in, account verification navigation caused another ad which cancelled my sign-in process.

I love Picrew and their platform, I use it all the time whenever I need a small distraction or something to do in the background. However, using the app has become extremely frustrating, the ads are extremely intrusive, some randomly direct you to your browser out of the app to shady ad websites which then often leads you to lose any progress you had made when you try to re-enter the app. I understand that money and ad revenue is needed to keep Picrew running, but the ads are horribly intrusive.

the amount of ads is enough that I'm not sure if I should keep using this app. the audio ones are the worst because they cannot be muted for the first several seconds. some amount of ads to keep the app free is understandable but it's very heavy handed. the app also makes my phone heat up when I use it. I think that being able to save finished images somewhere in the app (instead of or in addition to downloading them) would be a good feature.

far too many ads. an ad before the game loads in, one after you select an image maker, a banner at the bottom, a little theater window that you can mute, but it still lowers the volume of your music. not to mention the forced ads that take you out of the app, to the app store or webpage, and when you get back to picrew, you get another ad wall.

ads will pop up randomly and play excessively loud noises on opening a creator, and if you leave the app at any point even accidentally you will have to sit through another ad. I get needing to make money somehow but this is worse than the unobtrusive ads from the website variant. cannot recommend app in good conscience knowing there's a better option. would be 5 stars if it were closer to the website.

Overall it is a good app, it's just the amount of ads disrupting my time on it is annoying. if I accidentally get off the app for not even a minute, it gives me an add, or even if I press play on one of the options, or even randomly when I'm making a character, it'll give me an add. adds are okay, I just find them annoying when I watch an add more that I actually use the app, which is what tends to happen on this app. not exactly a 10/10, but I have no issues other than the ads.
