### 1/5 — Quá nhiều quảng cáo

*2024-12-19, version 3.4*

App như dở hơi. mỗi lần chọn vào cái gì cũng quảng cáo tận 12s

### 1/5 — Inconvenient

*2023-11-20*

Registration is very difficult and a waste of time. You can't sign in with Apple ID, so you have to sign up with Google and email only. It asks you to allow cookies to be activated, and this is very, very annoying, and these annoying ads take up a lot of your time. 10 days before the end of the month, it charged me again and I could not cancel my membership.

**Developer response:** Hi Mazarei

Our sincere apology for this inconvenience and unsatisfactory experience 🙏 

However, please note that the registration is straightforward with only one click using Google Sign In, and We only shows ads on the website and for free users. For Premium subscribers we don’t show ads on the iOS app. Also, if you would like to cancel subscription, please go to the Subscription section in your iPhone’s setting. If you would like to have the refund for the month you forget to cancel, please contact us and we will check the situation, 

Hope to hear from you, 

Regards 
Essay King Team
