HOW SURE ARE WE
Small app: combines its grossing ranks with ratings growth (188 new ratings a month on average since launch). Tested on 418 apps with verified revenue: typically off by about 2.6 times, so the range is wide. 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.

Store description

Welcome to Stars Messenger Kids - private, safe, and free messaging/video chat for kids and all ages. Stars Messenger Kids lets you safely message, call, and group video chat with your family and friends without any phone number, strangers, or ads. On most messaging platforms, once your phone number or username is publicly discovered, you are no longer in control of who can contact you. Stars is safe by design - instead of searching for people to add, users need their friend’s username as well as their unique private Friend Code. With the ability to reset your Friend Code, you are always in control of who can connect with you. All group chats are also protected with a unique group code. Parents can also optionally enable Parent View for their child. Parent View allows you the ability to see who your child is friends with, the groups they're in, their time spent on Stars, and more. You'll receive notifications in real time upon your child's activity. Stars Messenger Kids isn’t just safe, it’s super fun too: Customizable message styles with a range of fonts, colors, and sizes Cool emojis! Group video call Send custom quick messages with just 1 tap - “On my way!”, “What’s for dinner?” Share Photos, Videos, and Audio messages with friends and family Create private group chats with family and friends Supports all devices We guarantee: Stars Messenger Kids App is free to use Works on smartphones and tablets A 100% safe, private, phishing and spam-free environment No ads. A friend code that you can reset at anytime No phone number is required to use Stars Messenger Kids Lots of fun and memories! DOWNLOAD STARS MESSENGER KIDS TODAY! What are you waiting for? Download Stars Messenger Kids App for FREE and enjoy 100% safe chatting, video calling, and group video chats with your family and friends using our kids messenger app. Have fun! Try it, you will love it :) Thanks! GIVE US FEEDBACK: If you like the Stars Messenger Kids app, please give us feedback. We always appreciate your suggestions, improvement ideas, and recommendations. Send us your feedback at help@GetStarsApp.com or you can visit our site at www.GetStarsApp.com so that we can improve our kids messenger app and give you more and better features in the future. FAQ: Q: What is a Friend Code? A: On Stars, your Friend Code is your unique randomly generated code that you should only give out to the people that you want to be added by on Stars. You can reset this for a new randomly generated code at any time. To add a friend on Stars, you will need to ask them for their username and friend code, and to be added on Stars, they will need your username and friend code. Q: I don’t want to talk to someone anymore on Stars. What should I do? A: Step one is to delete the person you no longer want to talk to. After you delete the person from your contacts, you will be prompted to reset your Friend Code - this way, the person you have blocked will have no way to add you again. All done! This is unlike a phone number, email, or public username, which you cannot just easily change to avoid someone. Q: Can I decline add requests? A: Yes! On Stars, you must first accept add requests first for that person to be able to message you. If you don’t know the person, or don’t want to talk to them, you can decline the request.
