### 1/5 — Whoever rated this higher is a shill. DON'T believe them

*2022-03-13*

This is easily the worst app of its type.

What ...frightening about it, is it's similarity to a search app(the EXACT same layout, i.e., nothing), and if you see that app (and it's reviews), you'll see itmgot nothing but terrible reviews.

So; how to explain the huge discrepancy in the reviews?

Very simple; don't trust ANYthing which is given nothing but top marks, no flaws - 'perfect'.

There's no such thing as 'perfect', and even for something I've reviewed, and thought was great, I'd never give it 5-stars.

There's always room for improvement, so, when you've got on the one hand some of the best known, best liked apps constantly trying to rethink their app to better it, here comes this bottom feeder - something no one's heard of, and which doesn't work, yet people say it's the best thing ever.

Those are liars. Those are the people who'd sell a used car, and tell you it's not had one prior owner, an elderly women, who only used it to go to church once a week.

You can take these bobble-heads at face value, and try it yourselves, or you can not waste your time, and do something - anything - which is better for your time.

### 1/5 — USELESS

*2018-12-19, version 4.6.7*

It's a week until Christmas and I thought I would use this app to find something I am looking for. I entered a budget and typed WOMAN'S PARKA COAT -- and their search results were as follows:

#1  An AD for a Barnes & Nobel book!
#2  The same ad!
#3  A data-harvesting page -- sign-up for some newsletter!
#4  A Microsoft AD!

That's where I stopped and deleted this useless app.

### 5/5 — Good app

*2018-09-14*

The application is wonderful and very easy and has a high level of security for shopping

### 5/5 — Nice app

*2018-09-14*

This is very useful app when I installed it I really getting help by this app. Everyone can promote products that’s great job.

### 3/5 — Not what I expected.

*2017-08-04*

This app does a good try at being a super sleuth for finding just the right item you're looking for, but falls short.  It simply provides you with a list of search engines, and does a search for the criteria entered.  You must select a search engine too, it does not aggregate. The search is possible on your own, without the app in any search engine, by adding the same parameters.  Overall good try. Some might find it useful, I find it unnecessary.

**Developer response:** Thank you for your review

### 1/5 — Doesn't actually do anything

*2017-07-31*

The app just takes your search criteria and searches using it on google search, which is something five minutes of searching on the topic 'how to search smarter on google' will get you. 

After three such confused searches, the app tells you that you've run out of 'credits' for searches and prompts you to buy more. 

Basically a worthless app.

**Developer response:** Thank you for your review
