User Reviews
The app is trying to get me to pay and I can’t get out of it can someone please help me???
I have to say this apple is amazing but when I wanted you at the start, I kept staying on like the same thing like if I were to get like all of like the stuff on it I don’t know how to explain it very well and I just like did not really like it so I went and deleted the app and I downloaded it again and I’m gonna see if that works if it doesn’t then I don’t know but it was. This is like a pretty good app and I’m kinda happy that you designed it and I think if it does work this time then it will be the best and it will actually work and it will help me a lot because starting in middle school I’m going into sixth grade and I really don’t wanna be that attached to my phone and so yeah, thank you guys so much for making this up. It will help me so much. But I have an amazing day! -Grace
I spend five minutes answering the questions just for it to give me a paywall
I would like this app if you made it free like said in the ads.
It waits to tell you that it costs money until the last step of logging in even after asking for a review
It doesn’t let me do anything bc it’s not working but I have heard very great things about it.
This is malware
Maybe I missed it but I didn’t know when I downloaded it that I had to pay $30 a year for it to work at all. I am going to pay and then add on what I think about it but thought I would mention that. If it does what the reviews say it does and what it promises to do, it will absolutely be worth it.
I hate this app bc i need to pay and i’m only ten so i don't have any money at all plus my parents doesn’t give me any money to spend
App sucks don’t make me or anyone else pay
A good idea but I’m not paying for this garbage. Should be listed as a paid app- it being “free” is utter BS
really puts things into perspective
