Comments on Shimeji Friends for Android

★★★★★ Shiba · Mar 17, 2025

Cute app! I do like the fact you can pick them up, I use Bendy the most, but could you please add Ultrakill characters? Like Mirage, V1, V2, or Gabriel <3 thank you

★★★★★ your FBI agent hired to spy on you · May 16, 2024

BEYOND BIRTHDAY, I LOVE HIM SO CUTE BB BRAIN ROT Edit: Now that I'm using this again, I think you could improve this app with a search bar, so people don't have to scroll to find their favorite characters.

★★★★★ Elanor Kisela · Apr 25, 2025

It's really good! And I was wondering if you could add a search bar? And if there are any cookie run shimejis. Anyway, you don't have to pay for it and It's actually pretty good compared to the real Shinji! And it also doesn't shut your device down XD anyway, overall: 5 stars! <3

Well I just downloaded this and like I tried to start on and like it says like that I can't because it slows down the phone well that's not good cuz I have chosen sans like you know sans and blueberry, but it didn't work that's not fair

★★☆☆☆ Isla May Nethercot · Aug 8, 2025
