Very small public footprint: only one App Store rating/review shown (limited social proof or broad user feedback)
English-only UI listed — limited language support for non-English users
App relies on Apple’s iMessage sticker system, so placement/behavior depends on Messages app limitations
No mention of accessibility features (e.g., VoiceOver descriptions) in the listing
