If you don't have any other apps for adding effects to your pics, this one looks pretty good. If you do, you probably have one that is just as good or better, but this one is free, so you might as well check it out. It is supposedly ad free.

I suppose we should expect a Halloween Mahjong any time now. I thought they had one for every holiday, but they missed Columbus Day.

Unless they have an "I need my coffee right now!" theme, I don't this would work for me.

This app is so bad even the developer didn't give it 5 stars. It says in the description that if you like the tune, you can purchase it from iTunes right within the app. you know what that means, In App Purchases! If you still think you might want the app, check out the permissions; Yikes!!

Amazon ought to be ashamed of themselves for offering this app.

The reviewers seem to agree, the only reason it might be worth 99¢ is that it comes with 11 free songs.

Surely you didn't think you were all alone in here. I'm sure there are many other lurkers who appreciate what you 3 are doing.

@ JB,IDK,B4J,

Although it seems lonely here, about 250 people a day are still viewing this thread. That's about the average since it was created.

That's right. We 'tune in' every day to see whether we need to check out Amazon (or not, like today). We are further entertained by the zany antics of the admin and reviewers. Keep up the good work.

In that case, I want a raise. Gonna need it for those long, cold winter nights.

Gonna need it for those long, cold winter nights.

Just put your foam cheese head on and you'll be OK.
