Horrible
It was so bad like i couldn’t delete anything and if I tried to I had to pay and I got an add saying my phone had a virus and I needed to free storage but it lied this app is trash and it’s a scam
Not free
Why is the app trying to charge me before I can experience the app to see if it works on clearing my phone?
Free app
The app will download for free but if you want to use it you must pay monthly. So how is this app free.
NO QUIERO NADA DE ESTA APLICACIÓN
por favor esto me está molestando
Idk…
I was playing “Spin the Wheel” app then it told me that my game was hacked. It led me to this website to clean up. I thought it would be a quick and easy process, but it told me to subscribe. It said “free” (as others also say) but has never changed it. Misleading and a scam.
Devs, pls let users use this app for free once or twice at least because other apps use your app to wipe hackers.

Do not download- scam app!
False advertising. Should be removed from the App Store.
Don’t waste your money
It did nothing but take my money.

Scam
Scam Ask for money for everything and auto views are like you’re crazy, which is literally a total scam keep charges money
Bad
1. Why does it need access to my photos 2. It doesn’t work now Im going to apple 3. Please uninstall this app
Don’t even bother
Doesn’t work,needs credit card info don’t even bother with these apps.had it for 15 seconds and already asks for money .29 cents for the first week an outrageous amount for the second. ads are all ai slop. If you pay the .29 cents it sounds like a dog whistle. Basically a digital billboard.if deleting my photos is cleaning out my phone it does a great job pixel rumble(I highly recommend) is a more useful app before downloading I looked at the reviews I saw one for five stars saying it was free but is only free for download but subscriptions aren’t free. If they change a few things (everything)I will redownload
Pls read before downloading
If u don’t want to pay then DONT buy this it is so annoying bothering u for money and doesn’t let u even try it for free
Don’t get caught
They say use it free, the only thing free is the putting on your phone , you then have charges that they will not refund back to you,
Yes like I said it’s free but only to download
Yes like I said it’s free but only to download
It’s a scam
They want all your information your calendar they want to track you but all of your photos and they make you pay a lot of money
Trash
Do not get it does not clean out your speakers
Fraud!
I was excited, for what it stated! It was nothing!!
Junk
App is junk.
Sucks
This thing sucks it doesn’t work at all refund now
Powerful clean
Don’t get this. It’s terrible. I tried doing it and and like a virus was like it’s not good. It’s a one star review. It doesn’t even work. I was scrolling on YouTube
And I got a account it doesn’t even work. Don’t get this.

lol obviously fake
This app is obviously fake. There are no fans inside of a mobile device and especially inside of a charging port. If there was, none of these iPhones with lightning connectors or usb-c ports would be water resistant. If you really wanna clean your ports, get like a toothpick, hold your phone port side to down so the gravity can make the gunk fall down. Don't use metal as it can scratch up the ports. And if you really need a detailed cleaning kit, just go on Amazon or ifixit. Due to other logical reviews, I'm not even gonna bother opening up the app. What do deleting pics have to do with "forcing debris out of speakers and ports"? I'll tell you. It's absolutely nothing. It's an awful scam for those that are not tech savvy. If anything, anyone non tech savvy has a better chance asking a trusted kid on your block to help with your phone issues than some janky app
This app sucks
They won’t leave me alone. Been pending a charge. I never authorized for weeks even after deleting.
False advertising
Watch out for this app. It was advertised to me through a game, it said it would blow air out of the speaker portal. It actually just makes super loud noise. I signed up for a trial that was $.29/week, it said it would renew for that much. But it was going to renew for $19.99 per week.
Useless app
Downloaded it to try it and nothing happened for the speaker cleaning and I didn’t allow it access to my photos for this exact reason. This whole app is a scam and the developer is trash
Don’t bother.
The app might be free, just to have it. You have to pay to use anything. I downloaded it once, and deleted it the same day, don’t bother.
DO NOT DOWNLOAD
So i downloaded this app thinking it would clean the speakers on my phone like the ad shown, BUT NO, they forced me to pay just to use the app and it isnt about cleaning speakers., ITS ABOUT REMOVING PHOTOS?!?! DO NOT DOWNLOAD.
Do not down load
They just want monkey You can’t even do anything, it’s so hard to do something and you have to pay to do everything, terrible app DO NOT DOWNLOAD
Don’t download this app
Forces you to pay for any type of cleaning service or anything like that so if you’re not willing to pay, don’t download this app FYIA I am not paying for something me just blind. My speakers can do.
Don't recommend
U shouldn't have to pay for it just so u can clean ur stuff plus on my old phone my phone screen turned off forever and I do not recommend
Scammer
You didn’t clean my speakers and so u scammed me know u will get one star
Fraud
It advertises speaker cleaning but is a photo cleaner . Complete fraud.
Don’t Buy
Scam
Total Scam
False advertising to get you to subscribe to a service. This does not clean your speakers as advertised… stay away
Free?
Not free
Don’t believe this app
I didn’t even bother to use the app because once I downloaded it and went into the app in order for me to use it I had to pay a fee but yet when they did the commercial all they kept saying was that it was free. It was free well, no it’s not free. You have to pay for it.
SUCKS
Don’t Use This App. It SUCKS……..
Huge ripoff
“Free” download with cheap introduction subscription, but after a few days, it goes to $19.99 per WEEK! With sales tax, that’s over $1000 per year. And there is no BLOW function, but you can copy that for free from Apple Watch.
Total BS
Total BS
False advertising
It is not free as they say. You have to subscribe to it. That’s not free and they need to say that. It is misleading.
Rip off
This is the biggest rip off! It does nothing but watch out for $22 charges weekly.
No support not even a complaint line or number to call.
STAY AWAY FROM THIS!!!!

Didn’t work 4 me
I was hopeful about the”blow” they mentioned in the ad. I ran the app looked for the blow. No such thing. Isn’t that what they call false advertising? Bring back the good ol’ days when people meant what they said.
Free????
0.29 is not free and want access to photos, contacts,, get the f__k out of here
Confused
All it wants to do is my photos
Mistake
I ended up deleting things(photos+) that I didn’t want deleted. I have Dementia, and can’t remember what was there before…but I wish I never downloaded this app! 27¢ trial was just the beginning of the mistake!
Lost photos
I’m missing all of my precious pic from many years. App said I had 30 days to get them back but I can’t find how to reverse this and get them back.
Don’t like it
Can’t find settings to cancel I want to cancel it now
Fraudulent software
You advised that your software would remove viruses. However when reading everything your software does there is absolutely no mention of any virus removal software!
Wrll ugh!
Ugho sacrifices!
It only cleaned up my double photos not the virus
Don’t advertise that you can clean it up and get rid of viruses if you can’t
Please do not Download Unless yo want to pay money
I did not like this app because you had to pay and it sucks. I rather an app that yo can pay if you want. This is just for money. I don't care if you want money bc you can make better choices with appsn Sorry if I got to mad!
