“Paper People Jokes has been entertaining viewers since 2009 on their own Vimeo channel, and now the fun is brought to iOS users with the Paper People Jokes app.
The Paper People Jokes app serves up 90+ animated jokes, with new jokes added every week. Included is the ability to mark favorites, search for jokes, browse by category, and give each joke a star rating. You can even type or record your own favorite joke, submit it within the app, and possibly get it animated by the folks at Paper People Jokes!
How It Works:
The app is simple and straightforward: you have your list of jokes with a thumbnail for each one. There’s a search bar at the top of the list, and four tabs at the bottom: Favorites, Categories, Settings, and Submit A Joke.
The settings tab includes the ability to filter jokes: take out the dirty jokes, take out the Paper People Jokes, or take out the Paper Cuts (the jokes that didn’t quite make the grade). If you take out all three you’re left with nothing, so the app won’t let you get away with that. You can also adjust video quality here.
Watching a joke brings up the standard movie player and controls, plus the ability to rate or favorite a joke.
Pros and Cons:
There isn’t much not to like about the app, unless of course you just don’t find the jokes very funny. The app itself is rock solid and easy to use.
The quality of the jokes obviously varies according to your tastes, but if you have any sense of humor at all you’ll laugh at the jokes you find in Paper People Jokes. The delivery of the user-submitted jokes tends to vary, since some people just can’t deliver a joke, but the construction-paper animation goes a long way towards making up that gap.
Overall:
The Paper People Jokes app is a great way to discover dozens of new, funny jokes that you probably haven’t heard, with a new joke being added every week.”

“For almost a week I have been searching for humor apps for the iPad. The unlucky fact is, I was not able to find any even after a week’s search. But a smart search did the trick – I chanced upon Paper People Jokes iPad app.
What’s Paper People Jokes? To be frank, I had no idea as to what it is when I looked at it. But after a glance through its website, I understood the meaning of the name of the app. To put it in a word, the app is nothing but ‘BRILLIANT’. Paper People Jokes is the hub of animated/video jokes that are made out of funny situations. Currently, the app has more than 80 animated jokes with different categories. I must admit most of it are really funny and refreshingly new.
The interface of the app is well-designed. When you launch the app, you are taken to the dashboard containing 10 videos at the first page. I watched most of the videos but the funniest was the video by name – Tig Smorf Bitties. The categories help us choose and watch jokes based on our specific interests and also to find videos based on keyboards.
Paper People Jokes app has many adult jokes that may not be suitable for kids. Well, they have a solution for that too. In the settings menu, you have the option list of filtering that lets you to ON or OFF dirty jokes filter. Also you can filter jokes from Paper Cut and Paper People Jokes by turning off the respective buttons. If you worry about bandwidth issues, you can change the quality of the video from Low, Medium and High at the settings menu.
I loved almost everything about this app, especially the feature that allows us to add a video as our favorite and watch videos listed in the favorite menus. The submit joke feature is a good idea to get a good number of funny jokes that then gets into an animated video jokes once it gets approved by the team. I wish there could be a save option in the future to save the jokes on the hard drive and an option to save the audio transcript. Overall, its a humorous app that you should never miss out! Rating: 4/5″
