2026-09-06	Kr*****	I really enjoy this game but my one complaint is that sometimes it is SUPER laggy. There is a couple seconds delay between me selecting something and the game realizing I've selected it. Even closing it and reopening doesn't help. EDIT: I genuinely have zero problems with this app. It's transferred to several different phones with me and I still love it.

2026-06-20	Za*****	too many famous qoutes, also tends to use multiple long words and very few short ones, making it difficult to even begin to guess the context of the qoute without having extensive knowledge of how the person being quoted talked.

2026-06-13	H *****	They've added book quotes now, which is fine except that one of my pet peeves is when people attribute a fiction quote just to the author. Yes, they wrote it, but even if the narrator said it instead of a character, they weren't necessarily writing as themselves, unlike quotes from most essays. This is easily fixed by giving the book title as well as the author.
