With every helpful and ingenius tech invention there are a hundred strange ones like the Watching Cute Girl app. In fact, the word 'creepy' might be a better descriptor. As its direct name suggests, it consists of a cute girl watching the iPhone user's every move. For those who have always wished they had a crazy stalker, this is the app for them.
The Watching Cute Girl app may have come about as some kind of joke, but it does facilitate a type of companionship that many are looking for. The cute girl staring dreamily from the person's iPhone screen doesn't just sit there passively, she interacts with the user. For instance, the Watching Cute Girl states such feelings as, "Just watching you makes me happy," and asks, "Good evening. Have you already eaten?"
