Message From Santa™ - phone call, voicemail & text for Android
Paid the $1.99 upgrade, expected more. This is a 2 min. call, the 1st being word-4-word every time. Kids quickly pick up on this. Food/activity interests are super limited & should be able to be personalized, e.g., my son loves chocolate milk & frogs, neither are options. Naughty list needs 2 include basics like "didn't listen" or "talked back." For the Americans, Santa has a British accent & says things like "straight-away." Regional flavor would be a great feature to be able to select, as well.
it sometimes glitched but it works on I really liked the voice mail I would strongly advise that for children because it lets you talk to santa and gives you choices for what you want to do the phone works fine too just not as well as the voice mail I think. The texting just repeats the same thing I would not use it with children. But decides the calling it works so well strongly recommend it for child use
My mom was talking about how my Tia uses this on my 4 year old cousin to make she's nice. I wanted to check it out and whoa... I was amazed at how well this app was made. It sound super real, even though its prerecorded. They are so many options and over all I would be totally convinced if I still believed in Santa.
Christmas came early in it house this year (work schedules), and my baby was awed by her call with Santa. I would recommend this app to family and friends, but be sure to read the reviews from parents with multiple Santa-aged kids.
The app is such a great tool for keeping the magic of Christmas gift and making sure the kids behave! It's definitly worth paying the £1.79 to personalise the calls and to text santa . The only down side is that the list of likes is clearly Americanised and it could do with having British foods and activities on there. Rugby being one and chips instead of fries for example. All in all an excellent app.
It was just what my kids needed today. They have been fighting all morning on Christmas Eve day but after a personal call from Santa they are now playing together and behaving. My daughter got tears in her eyes when Santa said he knows she likes dolls. Great app
This app did more harm then good. I answered a million questions including my children's names and what they like and he didn't say their name or anything about what they like. My kids looked at me afterwards like wtf was that after the call. TERRIBLE DO NOT DOWNLOAD.
When you go thru process of giving child's name & age, you also select from a huge list of likes & interests. However, they are not used until you pay 1.99. After paying, you find out only one item in either categories are randomly used. The pauses are way too long after asking if speaking with the child & if they like that item selected.
After wanting a more personalized phone call, I paid the $1.99. It does say my daughters name, but the pauses are awkward and after the call was over, my daughter said that was weird and that this call was fake. I asked why and she immediately said he said he name weird and waited too long to respond. We'll, she's right - so trying to surprise her with a call from Santa backfired.
Great, worth $2 for paid version to not have ads and have Santa says the kids' names. I only wish I could customize his random reason for ending the call. I had to have 3 kids take private calls for fear of the others hearing his same excuse word for word. You can remove the ages and interests for the children to change how the call plays out if repeated calls are desired. Pretty awesome app.
Everytime the 'call' comes through for my little boy, the whole thing freezes and I'm unable to do anything on my phone! Absolutely ridiculous.. Wouldn't recommend if you don't want a very concerned/upset child after not being able to answer to Santa
On Christmas Eve I wanted to schedule a call with Santa and, it logged my out of the app, I tried again and again, 10 TIMES!!! And, it still didn't work. Also, WAY TO MANY ADDS!
Horrible, not because of the app itself, but extremely intrusive adds. Could not get to app until I found the way around the consecutive adds that confiscated the entire screen and did heir best to prevent escaping them. So I tried a few more times and the adds ruled the startup AND took over on exit. A truly monumental bit of nasty programming.
Good APP this app is very good, but a lot of adds, and i don't mind that Santa say's the same thing. somtimes i say "snksfhni" and he say's "sounds nice" because it's not real:). but it is good for little kids! whoever made this "Net Unlimited" good work!:) i will give it 5 STAR'S!!:) once you have took the adds away:) :(it also only let's you call for MIN SEC 1:15 :( :):):(:(:):(:()
I've used this app for years, for my daughter and today of all days, it needed an update. I should never have done that. The new update offers a more personalized phone call, however, if your child has a name that is not in their data base, the phone call cannot be made at all. My daughter mentioned that Santa hasn't called her yet and now I'm not sure what to do. Thanks a lot.
I have three kids under 4 and they loved it! I would whip it out during good and bad behavior. If they were any older though I don't think they would fall for it. Santa is pretty repetitive on his calls.
It's really cute and my kids love it. I only got the free version so it doesn't say their names or what they like but it does say their ages. I only gave 4 stars BC it should say one of the things they like to make it more personal. But it is really cute.
The calls could do with a bit variation as it's the same opening and more additions to the 'likes' would make it better. Things like toy story and big hero 6 etc... great incentive for young ones to behave at this time of year tho
Thanks for great app, it did get a little repetitive at the end when using it once a day. My son loved the calls and made Christmas a little extra special this year for a three year old. Will be downloading again next year for sure. I did pay for the upgrade.
This app is SO great for little ones. My son got a call from Santa today wishing him a happy birthday & was SO excited! The warnings he gets about the naughty list actually work! And when Santa praises him for something he did good just makes his day!
I really loved this app. One small comment, santa's call always mentions the age thingie. this gets very repetitive and gives it out that is a fake call after a couple of times. i would suggest adding a flag in the settings per child of what i want to be included in the call.
My kids did believe it was the real santa and actually it's kinda heartbreaking the look in their eyes, I found out santa wasn't real when I was like 5...
I love this app! It works like a charm! My child won't eat his veggies. So I call "Santa, and boom his gulping down his veggies. Thank you so much for this app!
Before the update, the chat wasn't working at all. I'm glad it's now working from a recent update.
This is so dime andnun successful to me and my kids dang its lame heha ha if I could give it zero stars I will ugly people or Lil ugly doad
My 6 year old wasn't listening and I set up a phone call she took the call and a complete 180 she runs to do whatever without being told twice
My 7 year old child proper believes that santa called him and even asked to ride in his slay. This app is amazing can't fault it in anyway!! Amazing thank you!!!! Worth paying the 1.79 for the name!!
This app has been saving me over Xmas vacation. My son really listens. It is genuinely brilliant!! Santa comes to the rescue in any kind of situation.
Thus app is veer good For children becoz this app can be used for chatting, calling and voice mail . I loch voice mail becoz all children r excited in that becoz it has many features in that which is goods for children. I luv it. All my small friends think it is tell.
I asked something about the kids not believe in him he said excellent so don't even try to download it
Thought you'd be able to actually setup a call to another phone number. This is not the case. It just goes through the app. No ability to call someone else.
My little boy was absolutely over the moon that santa had phoned him! It was magical, and got him scampering upstairs to bed pronto lol.
This app is wonderful. My niece loves it when Santa calls and mentions her name. The texting portion needs some work, but overall, this is worth the download and even the $1.99 to unlock all features.
Love that I can customize the children being added to the nice list, being put on the naughty list or calling for a good dead or not listening to mommy. Really considering paying for the full feature for $1.99 to have him say my child's name. This will be great for all year.
My little sibling lives and when it got the call that it should brush it's teeth and go to bed it did. Just like that. You should it for any younger child.
i know santa is not real... but i think this game is kinda good
Dont waste your time, never calls u. Garbage!
This phone call is the best!!! All the children in my family have had a personal phone call from Father Christmas. You can personalise this to fit any child it's brilliant!!!
When I text the same stupid things come up and doesn't make sens and when you talk the kids cant talk back dont download it

Very great app. I have an 8 year old, and is getting to the age where he is starting not to believe anymore, which there is an option, but it's the same excuse word for word as the others! Also would be nice to have option to add personal stuff, my son loves cub scouts, and chocolate milk and no option for that! The $1.99 upgrade is worth the personal calls, just the app needs some more work! Also the replies on Santa's text get repetitive after awhile! Would be nice to do video calls as well!
