### 2/5 — Was working

*2025-04-28, version 2.2*

I paid to eliminate all the ads for good and I still have to watch all the ads. Still no one to talk with or find out why.

### 3/5 — Epic fail

*2025-01-02, version 2.2*

Great concept. However, I paid for ad removal and still interrupted by frequent ads. I really wanted to like this app. Suggestions?

### 2/5 — Not currently functional

*2024-12-04, version 2.2*

Long time user. Took a break and after trying to use it again with undefined error, deleted and reinstalled. Still no go. Used to be a fun app.  Now seems to be unusable.

### 1/5 — Absolute garbage

*2024-11-15, version 2.2*

Waste of time.  Continuous error . Can’t even get past the phone number screen.  Wish I could get my 5 minutes back.

### 1/5 — JSON errors, voicing name twice

*2024-08-05, version 1.9.2*

In the playback it's voicing my name twice. Also get JSON errors on support link.

### 2/5 — Too many ads

*2024-05-24, version 1.9.2*

App is simple enough. But ads ruin the experience. Put them before I download atleast. Preventing users from reaching cpv. Big no no. Delete.

### 1/5 — Error

*2024-04-02, version 1.9.2*

It was working good when I first downloaded the app but now when I attempt to get a voicemail I get this error message, 
“Epic Voicemails
JSON could not be
serialized because of-error:
The data couldn't be read because it isn't in the correct format.”

### 1/5 — Freezes Up

*2024-03-10, version 1.9.2*

Typed in name & nothing.
Typed in another common name & got to 21% before freezing. 
These are common names which should be included. 
Advice?

### 4/5 — Doesn’t work

*2024-03-06, version 1.9.1*

App used to work perfectly but now when I try to search for a name I get “Epic Voice urlsession task failed with error: the request times out." I can make a custom voice mail but mmk it a specific name one

Change 3-5-24 recent update fixed this issue. App is awesome!

### 1/5 — iOS Version

*2024-01-14, version 1.8*

I downloaded the iOS version today and it allows me to register with email and password, and when I type my desired name for the generation of the voicemail, the app gets stuck at 0% and locks up. I have deleted the app and downloaded again, rebooted my iPhone 14 ProMax, to no avail. Useless as of now. Awaiting a fix for this bug.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2024-01-13, version 1.8*

Doesn’t work at all

### 2/5 — Great concept

*2024-01-13, version 1.8*

I originally downloaded the app shortly after it became available. Everything then, worked well. Today I went back and received an error message that said  “JSON could not be connected” looking at another review it seems to be an ongoing issue. A reply from the developer stated it was up and running when it is not. Please check again.

### 3/5 — A few bugs

*2023-10-24, version 1.8*

I had a hard crash first use. Relaunched a few times, 0% that never got higher. Deleted app, downloaded again, got to the end, JSON error. Deinstalled and grabbed again. Works now. Weird. 3 stars up from one.

### 1/5 — OTP never goes through

*2023-08-04, version 1.6.5*

Can not create an account because the OTP never comes through. Trash.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

### 1/5 — Don’t even bother

*2023-07-03, version 1.6.1*

Brought pack… not able to use. Put in name … not working and no response from team.

### 1/5 — Sold out

*2026-02-26, version 3.0.2*

It appears the brainchild of what was a great idea and version of this app sold it out. Now it’s useless and some weird game. I loved his voice and using it to piece together great and funny voicemails. Utterly disappointed

### 1/5 — Not the Same

*2026-02-25, version 3.0.2*

I used to be able to generate epic voicemails on this app. Now it’s a rap battle with a llama?!

### 1/5 — Don’t waste your money

*2025-11-03, version 3.0.2*

App ain’t worth the money, always having issues and canceling as soon as I got it

### 1/5 — Not what it used to be

*2025-10-09, version 3.0.1*

I used to like creating funny voicemail greetings in this app but this app doesn't operate how it used to so it is now deleted.

### 1/5 — Got Had

*2025-09-26, version 2.3*

I set up my account - put some money on it. Generated a voice message but later when I went to get a different one I’m unable to log in under any format - kept my money that was on balance.

### 1/5 — Would love to use but it won’t work

*2025-05-05, version 2.2*

Love the concept, but I can’t get the voicemails to load enough to preview or download on free or paid versions. Help?

### 1/5 — Crashes and no audio

*2025-05-04, version 2.2*

I downloaded it, Opened it, Watched an add, put my name in… I got to SEE all the options but when I went to play them there was no audio AT ALL. Yes my volume was up in fact I switched back to TikTok and my audio was loud lol…

Apps audio doesn’t work.

Next we have I clicked the one I wanted and the whole app crashed. I attempted 8 more times and yes.. crashed. I undownloaded and redownloaded and yes… crash (and still no audio)

### 1/5 — Don’t bother!!!

*2025-05-03, version 2.2*

This app is an utter waste of time, constantly glitches and never works.

### 1/5 — Deceptive billing - unable to unsubscribe

*2025-03-16, version 2.2*

Love this guys work and bought the $4.99 premium version - presented as a single purchase / not a subscription.  Just got billed for a second month - no Apple subscription for this and no credit card in the app - unable to unsubscribe.  Do not use / deceptive

### 1/5 — Does Not Work

*2024-11-30, version 2.2*

This looks amazing. I was ready to plunk down my $5, but when I put my name in “Adam” and tried to create a log in via Google API, the app gave an error that said “undefined” and I wasn’t able to proceed. It’s strange because I use Google API to log into so many other things- it’s never an issue… I want to update to 5 stars so this is kind of a plea for the developer to take a look so I can update my review with the 5 stars I know it deserves.

### 5/5 — How do you upload?

*2024-03-28, version 1.9.2*

I can’t figure out how to upload this to my iPhone greeting.

### 5/5 — iPhone support

*2023-08-31, version 1.6.7*

How the heck do you apply the recording as your voicemail on an iPhone?

### 5/5 — Don’t Hesitate!!!!

*2023-07-03, version 1.6.1*

I seriously can’t describe how amazing and fun this all is! I have nothing bad to say period! Download it now! You won’t regret it and this comes from someone who never ever leaves reviews! You’ll love anything you come up with!

### 5/5 — Brent is DA BOM!!

*2023-07-03, version 1.6.1*

You’re going to get the Voice of one of the nicest, hardest working fellows in the biz!  Sure there might be a glitch, here & there… but he’s working hard to keep your friends and family and “audience” amused with AFFORDABLE content, customized your way!  It’s a great use of a couple spare $$!!!  Buy one for your Mom, too!!

### 5/5 — An Epic app

*2023-07-02, version 1.6.1*

This is a genius idea for an app. I have been following Brent for a while now hoping and listening for him to call my generic name for an epic voicemail. Now there is an app that lets you control whatever he says. I am the master of my voicemail domain now. I also had issues with the app itself and Brent, and/or his assistant helped me immediately and directly. I am grateful and appreciative of the attention to people who support him. Use the app and enjoy it. Worth every penny.

### 5/5 — I really like this app!

*2023-07-02, version 1.6.1*

I love the creativity and the variety of Epic Voicemails. The options are great, and the Create Your Own works flawlessly. The cost to remove the audio watermark is very low. Keep up the great work!

### 5/5 — Great little app

*2022-05-12, version 1.3*

Remember to turn your phone off silent to hear the preview :)

### 5/5 — Personalized voice mail announcements with infinite possibilities

*2022-05-12, version 1.3*

Saw this app on TikTok.  The creator was taking suggestions real time and recorded the and immediately uploaded to the app.  This is the epitome of Agile development.  Great app, with great content.  Also, if your name is not in the app, leave  @trailervobrent on TikTok a comment with your name and he will gladly add you.

### 5/5 — Awesome App

*2022-05-11, version 1.3*

This App is awesome, what more can I say 😁

### 5/5 — Great App

*2022-05-07, version 1.2*

There is a voicemail message for everyone. This is a fun app. Great job.
