Photo Scout by Cascable User Reviews

Limited

The only way I've found to deactivate a "Scene" is a hack, make "It's snowing" a requirement in the middle of summer. Incessant notifications from scenes that you're not using otherwise. Too much time was spent on the candy interface and not enough on functionality. I've canceled my subscription. Posting here is the only way to get customer support.

Response from developer

You can turn off notifications for a scene by turning off the two switches for notifications in the scene’s detail panel - no “hack” needed. There’s also a button to contact customer support directly at the top of the help section of the app, as well as an email address in the help section of our website. We understand being frustrated with an app, but both of your complaints here are outright fabrications. Please consider contacting developers directly for help in the future - reviews like this are very harmful to indie developers like us, especially when they're not truthful.

Looks promising

But I flatly refuse to pay a subscription. I rather have a stripped down access where I can plan where the setting sun might be over a lake and such. I don’t need constant monitoring. I would pay a nominal flat one time fee for such a feature but until then…DELETED.

Response from developer

Thanks for your review! We're a small business building innovative apps we think users will love, monetised in a sustainable way to make sure we can evolve and improve them over time. Right now, a cheap app stripped of features isn't sustainable. Maybe one day!

Great app but….

Wonderful app, but really tired of all these scammy subscriptions. One time purchase maybe I’ll get it again, but for now deleted.

Response from developer

We're glad you like Photo Scout! We'd love to offer a non-subscription option just like our other apps, but the core functionality of this app is that it checks things continuously for you behind the scenes - since data sources like weather cost money every time they're accessed, the only sustainable way for us to do that is via some sort of recurring subscription.
