asked for my consent in a shopping list app go away
Good Lord....did anyone read the "advertising" consent? almost 200 "vendors" they ask for consent to sell all of your list data to! Immediate uninstall.
Not a fan of all the generative AI being pushed on me in this app.
charging money for a list...nice.
can't "add" anything after update. App crashes after typing.
I used to love this app. It was simple and did everything I needed it to. Then it added AI. So it's getting deleted.
from when was introduced the IA the experience is aifil
the ads are taking over the app.
widget no longer works
Ads is too much
I am moving to another phone and looking for another shopping list app. I tried to test yours. It annoyed me with banners before I even started. so I didn't have a chance to discover functionality.
ads and marketing in an app that should not have them
used to be a nice little app then it constantly asked me to update my privacy settings. I'd change my settings and then will after a month or so will ask me again.
Far too many adverts.
stop asking me to rate you
used to be a great app but now justs ads which won't go away! paid for version not value for money! Really disappointed having used this for years!
Used to love this app for my grocery list but probably going to be giving it up because of the unnecessary AI and gamefication features. I'm not using your app for anything other than quickly jotting down what I need. Get this AI janky nonsense out of here. EDIT: The developers responded saying you can disable it in settings. I checked, and of course as with all pro-AI shills, they're lying through their teeth. So I'll be bumping down to 1-star and uninstalling now!
WAY too many ads.
used to be great but now doesn't work without network connection (lags and crashes) probably because of the AI assistant nobody asked for
Not Compar ByHatke App All In one
many ads
too many ads for too long can't get to lists from it anymore most of the time
I've used this app for years and it's always been simple and reliable, but the AI features are useless and intrusive. it's become bloated and frustrating to use.
First seemed like "finally the one" but ended up full of ads and not being able to login with google if you don't use Safari as main browser on Macos to sync with same lists across devices
very good experience even while using the free version, but after the ladt update the ads became crazy bad, I am currently looking for an alternative. while I do understand that you need to make money, I dont understand why you have to include this frankly intrusive version. you had banner ads, that were constantly displayed and were effective. these new ads that hijack the screen and require interaction are just too much.
Updated review: Since my original review of the slow UI, things have improved. However I still get the impression that development is directed by management buzzword bingo, rather than user needs. (As evidenced by all versions after the version I decided to buy). Current gripe: Does it need "AI"? No. Does it have "AI"? Yes.
