Terrible

I had purchased and used the 7-day free trial, yet canceled the exact same day that the free trial was purchased. Now I’m being charged OVER the trial amount AND it’s declining me of downloading other apps until said subscription is paid for. Do NOT recommend this app.

Horrible

Frustrating, obtuse, difficult on purpose, loaded with conflicting and contradictory prompts. Just sucks.
CredenzaCredenza

Subscription TRAP!

Beware when you sign in for a trial. If you miss to cancel one day before it automatically renews a whole year. NO REFUNDS money wasted
