Reception Hong Menyan of Lianhe Zaobao said the series was his favourite of StarHub dramas that the Media Development Authority had commissioned. He wrote, "My Secret App is actually shot like a children's play, suitable for the whole family to watch together. It brings out very simple truths through a very simple plot, but the dialogue is interesting, and the alien's appearance is cute, not embarrassing." He noted that there were four primary characters, whom he all praised. He said both Darren Lim and Hayley Woo are "just right". Hong said Fann Wong "rarely plays an unappealing character, which is funny and adds points". He called the acting of Damien Teo, a child, "impeccable". Referring to Teo's interactions with the fictional alien, Hong wrote, "At such a young age, he portrayed various expressions and inner dramas while facing empty space, making it a performance full of appeal."
