### 1/5 — Annoying adds

*2025-03-28*

The adds pop up over the screen almost immediately after opening the add covering the entire screen, and the “x” button just does nothing, so you are just stuck with it.

### 1/5 — Does not work anymore

*2025-03-02*

Instant advertising which blocks the whole screen, and thus totally useless

### 1/5 — Greed, and another bad programmer’s job

*2024-12-17*

False start, Tigran!

### 5/5 — Works good for me

*2024-03-19, version 4.7.6*

I’m happy with it

### 1/5 — Not Recommended

*2023-10-13, version 4.7.6*

This app is inundated with adds that you can’t eliminate that using it’s features is near impossible. I’d give it a zero if it were possible.

### 1/5 — Ads are crazy

*2022-08-19, version 4.7.3*

The ads pop up every 2 minutes and cover the entire screen. Very inconvenient.

### 1/5 — Ads always popping up

*2021-11-08*

Old version was pretty good. New, mandatory update version, is unusable as ads keep popping up every few seconds. The ads are full screen so nothing can be done until the ads time out. Thus, when you need to use the app, it’s not available. Deleted.

### 5/5 — A gem

*2021-09-10*

A truly useful and does-what-its-meant-to-do app, whilst being not clumsy, i.e. just right. The latest update brought more stability and hopefully many more years of happy use to come.

### 1/5 — Keeps Crashing

*2021-09-09, version 4.7.0*

Will not work on iPhone 12 - constantly crashing when trying to open the app.

### 1/5 — Used to Work. Not Now

*2021-09-09, version 4.7.0*

Used to use this for a long time. Now it just crashes on opening.
