HOW SURE ARE WE
Not in any grossing chart, so this comes from ratings growth (9.7 new ratings a month on average since launch): revenue grows with new ratings, more slowly for apps that collect ratings fast. Tested on 418 apps with verified revenue: typically off by about 2 times, and big earners tend to come out low. Countries we don't track (and Google Play in China, which doesn't exist) aren't included, and neither are ads or web payments. Gross revenue before store fees.

Game is so funny when look giraffe 🦒 🤯😂

This is so funny i like the giraffe licking my screen 😂 🫪👅🙀😹 and the lady bug walking on the apple 🍎 🐞

★★★★★Apr 26, 2026
Better than a fidget spinner

You can even “spin” some of the animals! On the iPhone you can unfortunately activate the notifications dock while swiping down or up, which abruptly returns you to the stress of your life momentarily, but it’s not s dealbreaker - the margin is calibrated wide enough for that to be an occasional fluff. Christof, how about a big/kid quasi-CHOMP version where you can upload images of say, to replace the animal face, and then you get to duke it out with them? 😉
