### 1/5 — Dont waste your money!!

*2018-10-24, version 1.4.3*

App keep closing. Can not hear recording. Waste of time and money.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2018-07-13, version 1.4.3*

Enough said doesn’t work

### 1/5 — Waste of .99!!!!!

*2017-11-10, version 1.4.3*

Every time I click to upload a new recording, the app crashes! Want a refund!

### 1/5 — Awlful

*2017-10-03, version 1.4.3*

I want my money back.  Useless

### 1/5 — No option to upload

*2017-08-13, version 1.4.3*

All I wanted to do was upload recorded memos, and there is no option for that. This is probably good for new memos created with this particular app.

### 1/5 — Junk

*2017-06-18, version 1.4.3*

There is no way to share audio

### 1/5 — Terrible!

*2016-12-07, version 1.4.3*

Why are you still selling this app. .99 wasted. Doesn't work, you can't even sign in. 
Fix it or give everyone its refund and rake out of iPhone Apps.

### 1/5 — Pretty much what everyone else said

*2016-03-27, version 1.4.3*

No comment, doesn't even play sound for me. Seriously, no sound? Why?

### 1/5 — Sorry I bought it… total waste of $.99!!!

*2015-10-20, version 1.4.3*

Figured the price wasn't too much of a risk, but now wish I had r as the reviews first. They are all spot-on. Save your money and the time you'll waste downloading the app and figuring out it's a waste.

### 1/5 — Nonfunctional

*2015-05-14, version 1.4.3*

I downloaded this app for the sole purpose of uploading my voice memos from my iPhone. The app will not allow me past the sign in page, although it validates my sign in with a green "valid account", and thus I am unable to enter my iPhone email to upload the messages.

### 1/5 — Pure Garbage

*2015-05-08, version 1.4.3*

Do not buy this.  It doesn't function.  At all.  Uninstalling and requesting a refund.

This should be removed from the App Store until they get their programmers away from the bar long enough to do their jobs.  Even then I won't be back.

### 1/5 — Why did you even release this?

*2015-01-21, version 1.4.3*

You can barely do anything in this app. All I wanted to do was look at the people I follow and pull up their stuff. You literally cannot even do that. Like, what is this app even for? It doesn't do anything. Total waste of money.

### 1/5 — So far

*2014-12-16, version 1.4.3*

I have about a week with this download. I use it all the time online and love it. BUT the app is a different story. I can log in. Search for sounds but when I find the user I want to hear I can't do anything past knowing he has xx amount of sounds. It has three little dots that light up for me but it does nothing. I have to know exactly what the names of the files R and search by that to play. Which means going online, getting the name and typing it in the search. No option to save it either. No option for viewing or listening to your favorites. Useless really. I emailed for support from the first day regarding a logging in issue and have YET to hear back. I know it's only 99¢ but I still feel it was a waste. Maybe a few updates and upgrades would help. As of now I wouldn't recommend getting this, just go to the source on the website.

### 1/5 — Waste of Space!!!

*2014-09-21, version 1.4.3*

Can't view or edit profile. Can't see followers or people you follow. Every button takes 3-4 presses to get any result. I paid for this app, and I want my money back. In 6 years with Apple, I've never been cheated so badly. Lodging a complaint with Apple. DO NOT BUY.

### 1/5 — I've been robbed ....

*2013-09-12, version 1.1*

Can't share by the app ... Crashes ...

### 1/5 — Worthless

*2013-06-01, version 1.1*

You can't share to social networks from the app. Can't even copy a link. Enough said.

### 1/5 — Disappointing

*2013-02-26, version 1.0*

Allows you to record & post recordings online. Also allows you to listen to previously posted chirbits. Crashes frequently. Does not support sharing to Facebook or twitter. Can't even see the URL of chirbits to manually share. Does not allow editing of existing chirbits.

### 1/5 — App Download 👎🏽

*2019-07-03, version 1.4.3*

This app was going to be the answer to a few BIG problems I have with making activities accessible to all of my students. However, it keeps crashing on me. So disappointed.

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2019-05-04, version 1.4.3*

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2019-02-27, version 1.4.3*

I downloaded this app bc my aunt has a lot of my cousin songs on it and it closing out on me. I can’t do anything w out it force quitting!!! Really irritating!!

### 1/5 — Inoperable

*2019-02-24, version 1.4.3*

Shows nothing on full screen. Press button and app crashes. Failure.  No attention given here unfortunately. Do use online version.

### 1/5 — App does not work

*2019-02-16, version 1.4.3*

I can not get app to work- attempted to contact developer but all links produce errors or inactive accounts.

### 1/5 — Horrible!!! Save your $$$$

*2019-01-10, version 1.4.3*

I am a teacher and had this app recommended to me as a good way for students to make voice recordings in a foreign language classroom. I bought the app and tried recording a simple alphabet. The app seemed to record, but when I play it back it is stuck on a 1 second loop. I tried to upload the recording to see if the website would work. No good. The app shuts down and loses what I had done. I want my money back!

### 5/5 — Awesome!!!

*2013-11-07, version 1.4*

Been waiting for an app like this to be able to tweet mp3's of my vocals.

### 5/5 — Amazing! Love it ^.^

*2012-11-21, version 1.0*

This app is fantastic. I got it as soon as it came out. Everything about it is great. The website is awesome too. :) I'd recommend this to everybody

### 4/5 — Overall good...

*2013-02-12, version 1.0*

easy to use & upload but needs update to fix bugs, crashes sometimes when opening app.

### 3/5 — Good start, but…

*2012-12-07, version 1.0*

There doesn't seem to be a way to post your newly recorded Chirbits to social networks within the app. Please add pull refresh. It is not clear what the icon's at the top represent, other than one's own recordings; neither seem to show me the Chirbits of people I'm following on the website.  It also seems to be slow at pulling lists and recordings from the Chirbit website.

### 2/5 — What's the point?

*2013-12-31, version 1.4.1*

What's the point in having a mobile version if you can't use the same basic features of the web version? All users can do is record their sound file and upload it.

If this is a mobile version of Chibits utilize it well! Even the search engine doesn't work well at all. For example searching "John eats ice cream: Part 2" would bring up items like "Ice cracking" or even as far as "Lindsey sleeps on the couch", this is all fictional of course in terms of actual things searched, but you get my drift and it applies not just to chirbits but to users as well.

I notice when browsing chirbits there are hash tags for particular things such as music or poem. If these tags are displayed there should be some FUNCTIONAL way to search for them for RELEVANT results.

As a user of this app I'm highly disappointed. This
review itself should give a 1 star rating, but since I do like the idea behind it and isn't riddled with bugs it has been given an extra star.
