A few questions about this app

First of all, my kid really loves it and has been using it for a long time, but recently there are a few issues I want to complain about since updated the app, it really makes worse. I wish you hadn’t updated this app.
1. The image won’t go away after being used, I am sure that reuse photo switch is off.
2. How can I delete an image from the custom boxes?

Features Do Not Work

I sugned up for the Professional level, but it still didnt allow any other boxes to work except "family" and "P Box".

No Example

You have to sign up for the trial to see what it does. It should have a demo so you can see what it has to offer before I have to sign up and give out personal info.

Locks if you don't buy

I couldn't find any tryout boxes to see how it works. Got a screen where I had to choose from 3 different price ranges. Even when I tried clicking on the free trial, it wouldn't release the pricing window, and the app wouldn't shut down. So I had to do a Force Quit to shut it down. Waste of a download! Uninstalled!

Response from developer

My sincere apologies. This was a bug in our app. It is supposed to provide you with a FREE "/p/ Sounds" Box without a subscription. However, a bug led to this not being the case. We've fixed this in v3.0.1 which you can update to at your convenience.

Won’t let me cancel subscription

I subscribed to do the free trial and was going to cancel before I was charged. It’s not giving me the option to cancel, I’m now being charged and I don’t even want the app.

Response from developer

To cancel a subscription, you need to do so in the App Store app. Here's an article I wrote on how to do it: https://www.speechboxapp.com/2020/04/cancelling-speechbox-subscription/.

No trial

I don’t like buying apps blind. Need to show me what it actually does.

Unreliable

I bought the original application, then after having it for a while, I was told I would now have to have a subscription. I did not want to do it. Recently, my husband informed me that we had an unknown monthly charge of $7.99. I traced it back on my bills as far as October 2019. I asked the support how long they had been charging me and they said they did not have that information. I thought well as long as I have it, I should use it, so I tried today. At $7.99, it is supposed to be the professional level. I downloaded the /th/ words and the download only gave me 4 cards for all /th/ positions. I downloaded /r/ and got a nice selection, but 4 of the cards repeatedly came back after they were swiped away. I was unable to download the Action card Speech Box. What an unreliable application! I would like a reimbursement for all the months I have been charged for the subscription.

Hi there, I responded quickly to your support email. I’m happy to work with you to correct the issue you are having.

This app never worked. I emailed the company and it was never fixed.

Response from developer

I’m sorry you were having an issue. Can you email me at henry@speechboxapp.com? I’d be happy to look into your issue and resolve it.

Could not recommend

I purchased this app some years ago and used it with my clients. Now I can’t access it without a further subscription. When do you buy any product and then have the seller take it back and charge you more to use that product. Unreasonable. I feel as though my purchase has been stolen.

Response from developer

I’m sorry you are disappointed. It was a tough decision. We’re giving existing users a ONE-Year free to help the transition. Please email me at henry@speechboxapp.com so we can discuss your situation.
