★★★★ "Stole $20. Basically no features at all, and it said there was a free trial when I opened it, so I decided to try it out, but it didn’t give me the free trial and just charged me for the year. Save your time and money and find a different app." - LeviathanLocke

Can not cancel
I can not find how to cancel this app. I've sent messages asked on socials. They are not getting back with me. It is annoying and most likely a scam. I'm sick of s#%+ like this!! Do not get this app.

No free 3 day trial
It said free 3 day trial then $19.99 per year. They took my money immediately and no free trial. Had to request refund from Apple.

Free 3 days trial is not true. The app doesn’t allow you to unsubscribe

Honest Review 😻
I need one-time (lifetime) purchase option. I know you guys have to earn some money to survive…
