NOT FREE AND NO FREE TRAIL
Do not waste your time downloading this app. The absolute irony of listing this as a "Free" app on the App Store is that you can’t actually use a single functional feature without paying. To make matters worse, they don't even offer a basic free trial. They expect you to blindly hand over your credit card just to see if the software even works. Let's be real—the vast majority of utility and security apps out there completely over-promise and under-deliver, and many flat-out don’t work at all.
This developer relies on a cheap, predatory compliance trick to scare you into buying: the moment you download it, you can run a free "Wi-Fi scan." It instantly spits out an alarming message claiming "10 Suspicious Devices Detected" on your network. But the second you try to view the report to see what those devices actually are, it locks you out and demands a paid subscription.
Dropping a terrifying number on a user and hiding the data behind a credit card prompt isn’t "Smart Security"—it’s a digital protection racket designed to induce panic-buying. Apple shouldn't allow developers to advertise apps as "Free to download" when they are strictly "Pay-to-use." It's an incredibly dishonest marketing scheme and needs to be regulated.
If a developer can’t even offer a 72 hour free trial when advertised for free… to me that means they aren’t confident their app will be successful enough to keep people subscribed. Deleting it.
