User Reviews
Looking forward to more true crime stories!
This is an awesome app that feeds my true crime pleasure. No longer need to search streaming services for TC documentaries.
Good story. Short and sweet. Well told
So much to explore on here!
I haven’t watched a minute of the actual content, so the scope of this review is narrowly-focused on the actual iOS app. I subscribed, and feel like I got swindled judging by the quality of your iOS app. You keep showing me popup ads to subscribe. They start at 25% off at $29.99/year. After I close that, it’s another ad, this time at 80% off - at the same $29.99/year. There’s no setting in-app to restore a purchase to make the ads go away. Hitting submit on the feedback form to provide you this info (which was going to be the only feedback I provided) prompted yet another ad (this time for a third party). You’re getting ad revenue from the people who send you feedback? No wonder the in-app link to rate the app simply disappears when you select it? Yikes. So bummed to have paid full price for this at $29.99/year. I should have waited for the 80% off ad at $29.99/year you reserve for the customers who’ve already subscribed.
Great story. Glad it ended in justice.
seems promising but it’s pay to use , also uses weird AI covers idek just use actual pictures. but you had sandy hook so i like that i guess.
Been wanting a app just like this thank you
First , they don’t have a free version of this app so it’s kind of a turn off that you are forced into a subscription right away. And by reading these reviews I learned it’s all AI generated. There is just something very unappealing about that. It’s probably not accurate and AI always sounds very generic. It’s a hard pass.
Got better as I watched it.
The story are great!! But. It's so costly to purchase.. It takes a lot coins to view the story!! That’s why my rating is low
So easy to navigate through
