  1. 4/5This is a great game, but. . .

    This game replicates certain bugs and tells you facts about them. I bought the Explorer and it allowed me to see/inspect more bugs. The game is amazing, but it needs more bugs! Such a great game but few bugs. Please add more such as the Emperor Scorpion, Hercules Beetle, the Giant Hornet, and the Rhino Beetle. I’ll be very happy to see these bugs in the game in the future.

  2. 3/5Explorer not free today as indicated

    I have Insecta. When I downloaded previously purchased app, it said Explorer was free for limited time. I went to settings for the offer, and it was $2.99. Why does it say free today?

  3. 5/5Making me pay extra

    This game is really cool, I bought it when it cost money, but since the update, it makes me pay extra money to view insects I previously had access to. It kinda stinks

  4. 2/5Please keep adding more creatures/insects

    Please make sure to add more insects. Number of insects at this point is very little, and due to this reason I chose to provide only one star rating (Although it seems two stars rating). Please! My Device: iPhone 14 Pro Max (Latest iOS), iPad Pro 12.9” (3rd Generation, 2018, latest iPadOS) Note: I regularly update my review/rating for this application.

  5. 5/5BEAUTIFUL APP 🐞

    The app designed very good and colorful, the way you can see insects in 3D or AR is very fun. Please add more bugs in the future. Thanks for adding more bugs.
