### 4/5 — Love it!

*2024-08-27, version 1.1.3*

I would like to know how long the sounds will be saved. I need this for my german class and I want to use the sounds again and again without making them again and again. Please tell me that they are saved forever!!!!

### 4/5 — Gut aber...

*2021-02-19, version 1.1.3*

Ich liebe diese einfach zu bedienende App, aber leider können viele Schüler den QR Code nicht öffnen. Es erscheint dann immer „..Not found“. 
Wie kann das sein?

### 4/5 — Where goes the audio

*2020-02-13, version 1.1.3*

Hi, very nice app but i should know where the audio files were saved.....in Germany we got some issues with data protection

### 5/5 — Chirp.qr

*2019-05-03, version 1.1.3*

I love to have my students record themselves reading their creative stories. I print the qr codes and their parents can scan the codes and hear their child read their own story on conference night and back to school night.  Parents think this is the greatest thing!   The codes have always printed and worked.

### 4/5 — Nice

*2019-04-21, version 1.1.3*

I have had success with this app with a little longer recording...longer then 7 seconds.

### 3/5 — Audio not found on server

*2017-04-27*

Hi there.

I love your app, but I've noticed that when I scan the QR code now I get the following message: The requested URL /chirp.qr/audio/201704272149-test.m4a was not found on this server. Any ideas?

### 3/5 — Problem

*2017-01-23, version 1.1.1*

The QR codes are not working. They say "not found."
