Amazon / Novelty / FART PRANK (SMELL THE ROSES)
REVIEW
Fart Prank is a 99-cent gag that does the one thing it promises.
A single-purpose Amazon Fire novelty: pick a sound, hit the button, embarrass a sibling. There is no second act, and the app does not pretend there is one.

Some apps exist to be reviewed at length. Fart Prank is not one of them, and treating it as if it were would do a disservice to both the developer and the reader. It is a 99-cent soundboard on the Amazon Appstore, themed around the obvious bodily function, last updated in March 2026 by an independent developer called Edarevalo. The honest review is short.
Novelty apps used to be a meaningful slice of every app store’s top-grossing chart. They have receded — partly because the meme cycle moved to TikTok, partly because the underlying gag stopped being a novelty once every kid had a phone. What remains is a long tail of small, cheap, mostly-honest single-purpose apps that get installed on a child’s hand-me-down tablet, used for a weekend, and forgotten. Fart Prank is squarely in that tail.
The right way to grade an app like this is against its own ambition. The ambition is low, the price is low, and the execution clears both bars without effort.
It is a soundboard with one theme, sold for less than a candy bar, and it does not waste your time pretending to be more.
FEATURES
Fart Prank is a soundboard. You open the app, you are presented with a grid of labeled buttons, you tap one, a sound plays. The category — flagged in the subtitle as "Smell the roses" — is the joke, and the joke is the entire feature set. Volume is loud by default, which is the only setting that matters for a prank app.
There is no recording, no timer-based delivery, no Bluetooth speaker pairing, no shareable clips, no library import. There is no in-app purchase, no ad layer, and no account. You pay 99 cents on the Amazon Appstore, the APK installs on a Fire tablet, and the buttons work. The app last shipped an update in March 2026, which is more recent than most apps in this genre manage.
MISSION ACCOMPLISHED
The pricing is honest. Ninety-nine cents, one-time, no ads, no upsell. In a category where most free novelty apps are 80 percent ad inventory and 20 percent fart noises, paying the buck to get a clean grid of buttons is a defensible trade. The Fire-tablet form factor also makes some accidental sense: a $50 Kids tablet with this app pre-installed is, on a long car ride, exactly what a nine-year-old wants.
The icon and screenshots make the gag obvious before purchase, which spares everyone the refund flow. No one is downloading this and then expressing surprise about what it is.
ROOM TO IMPROVE
There is no second feature. A genuine prank app — even at this price — could add scheduled playback, a remote trigger from a paired device, a "looks like a calculator" disguise mode, or simply a recording function so kids can build their own bits. Fart Prank ships none of those, which is fine if you grade it as a 99-cent gift and a problem if you grade it against the rest of the category.
Without a rating count exposed on Amazon's catalogue (the store shows a 5-star average but no volume), it is hard to tell whether the few people who own it like it or whether almost no one has tried it. The single five-star rating on the listing is not a meaningful signal at this sample size.
CONCLUSION
Buy it for a nephew, install it on a kid's Fire tablet, forget about it. Anyone looking for an actual prank toolkit — scheduled calls, fake notifications, remote triggers — should keep looking. This is the candy-bar tier of the App Comrade catalogue, and it knows it.
