### 1/5 — 👎🏻👎🏻

*2025-12-31, version 1.1*

Enter my card information “in case” i want to pay? Yeah, you’re not fooling this one

### 4/5 — Not bad

*2025-05-03, version 1.1*

App GUI & ad placement would be the only downside to this imo. Needing to re launch app to get around adds sometimes but apart from that XMR miner works fine. I selected the first option to mine via MoneroOcean pool and after a few mins my miner showed up when I went to their website on pc. Payout for that platform is 0.003 XMR (~80¢) min. The total earned/payed appears on the MoneroOcean dashboard, not within the app, so the bad reviews didn’t do their due diligence before writing.

### 1/5 — They are not paying out

*2024-10-23, version 1.1*

I was mining and I had a lot excepted shares but they never send any to my wallet this is a joke and they lie they own me money and I want to get paid out I want this site shut down

### 1/5 — Very Slow

*2024-10-05, version 1.1*

Very slow and no information about donate level etc

### 1/5 — malware dont install

*2024-03-14, version 1.1*

ive had issuse with malware, come to find out my at&t security app now blocks this app from opening say becouse it stops a malware page from installing malware..this app store reslly is starting to nit be safe anymore so lets get this right apple we cant get all the open source apps we want that could protect us and your clams of safe apps just are false now. so many 0days comeing out and whats stoping threat actors from buying a dev license and building app and hiding code. dont think you guys are reading all thier code take this out the store!! this is turning into legal matters .

### 5/5 — It works like a charm

*2023-11-26, version 1.1*

Have been able to use it to mine in various pools, slowly but surely. 

Cool!!

### 2/5 — Not Working

*2023-01-21, version 1.1*

For the first couple of weeks, it was working perfectly fine … now it doesn’t seem to work. It won’t mine anymore … 4 or even 5-Star potential if it was fixed! 2-Stars for now …

### 1/5 — trash

*2022-12-12, version 1.1*

updated version?

### 3/5 — Missing details

*2022-06-08, version 1.1*

Previous reviewer was spot on! The app seems to work but gives no details on pay out or percentages. Seems as if you stop and restart the mining you loose your previous progress. Would be a 5 star app with a little work.

### 1/5 — No idea

*2022-05-07, version 1.1*

You put in a wallet address but it gives you no indication of doing anything
