### 1/5 — Not as advertised and will charge you for the free trial

*2025-04-19*

I selected the free trial just to see how this app worked and the app charge me $38. I reached out to the company of this app and they have not refunded my money. Please don’t download. It seems to be a scam.

### 1/5 — Not free

*2025-12-11*

Fork over data privacy rights for the ability to pay for a free service, bad app.

**Developer response:** Hi there! Thank you for taking the time to express your views.
To ensure the smooth operation of the app, a free trial or an active subscription is required. As part of this process, Apple asks users to add a valid payment method to their Apple ID. This is a standard App Store requirement and isn’t something we’re able to modify on our end.
Please let us know if you have any questions — we’re happy to help. Kind regards,

### 1/5 — Did not work as marketed

*2025-11-02*

This app was marketed as a note taker, yet it would not allow me to upload the content  and then I canceled the free trial. After cancellation, I was charged for the app and then was told that it was not eligible for a refund, even after speaking to the customer service supervisor through Apple. This feels like a scam and I just want my money back.

**Developer response:** Hi there!
Thank you for being willing to share feedback. We completely understand how disappointing and frustrating this situation can be, and we’re truly sorry for any inconvenience this has caused.
Since your subscription and payment were processed through Apple, we are limited in the actions we can take regarding refunds on our end. In these cases, Apple manages all billing and refund requests directly.
We recommend reaching out to Apple Support once more, as they may be able to provide you with further options or clarify their specific refund policies. Apple Support has access to all the necessary information to assist with payment issues related to your subscription.
If there’s anything else we can do to support you or if you have any other questions, please let us know. We’re here to help in any way we can.
Best regards,

*2025-10-26*

**Developer response:** Hi there!
Thank you for being willing to share feedback.
We’re truly sorry for any inconvenience this situation might have caused you. Unfortunately, we’re unable to manage your account or process a refund directly on our end, since all previous transactions are handled through Apple.

If you have any questions or need additional support from our side, please don’t hesitate to let us know. We're here for you and happy to help in any way we can.

### 1/5 — SCAM. Don’t bother getting this app.

*2025-10-06*

Of course I am not the first one that this app scams, 
Upon reading the reviews I see that other people have gone through the same. 
Don’t even bother downloading this app. 
(September 21)I downloaded this app I only wanted to try it out and I did the 3 day trial right after not even minutes had passed which I went and cancelled it. Thought everything was okay. Then , October 4th  I was charged $7.99. 
When I had cancelled the 3 day trial literally the same day I did the trial. 
Beware of this scammy app. 
It honestly concerns me that they will continue to scam me.

**Developer response:** Hi there! Thank you for taking the time to bring us your feedback. We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience you've experienced. It's disheartening to hear about the unexpected charges you have faced.  To address this issue promptly, please contact our support team  via e-mail support@ai-note-taker.app explaining the situation in detail. In most cases, when a free trial is canceled on the same day, the charge may be related to another app or subscription, not ours. We will work with you to clarify and resolve this situation.
We appreciate your patience and your feedback, as it helps us improve.

Doesn’t transcribe

**Developer response:** Hi there! Thank you for taking the time to bring us your feedback. We're sorry to hear you're having trouble with transcription in AI Note Taker. When there's no transcription, there could be several reasons for this—for example, the audio might be badly recorded, the file could be corrupted, there may be too much background noise, or there could have been a technical problem during processing.

Your feedback is valuable to us.  We’re very sorry for any frustration caused by not receiving a prompt response from our tech support.

### 1/5 — Fraud App

*2025-06-09*

This is a fraud app. Stay away from it. They would tell you that you can cancel. The link to cancel does not exist. When you send message to their contact us no one would respond. The would just be deducting money weekly from your account. They took £6.99 weekly from my account, even though they claimed that it was for a month subscription. Refund my money

### 5/5 — Must Have

*2026-05-03*

13 pages of notes for one chapter isn't normal.

“Stratigues for note taking with ADHD”, FoxNote popped up… 4 months later, huge improvement with reading assignments!

I love how there is a full transcript and summary.
If FoxNote misses information specific to an assignment, I get it from the transcript.

AI Prompt I use: “Act as a professional notetaker. Take the following transcript and organize it into a structured outline with clear headings, bullet key points and a separate list of action items of important terms to remember.”

Does the job.

**Developer response:** Hello grrPolarbear! It's fantastic to hear how much the app has positively influenced your note-taking and reading journey. Your AI prompt is a great strategy for creating structured and actionable outlines, and we're thrilled that the transcript and summary features have been beneficial for you. We truly appreciate you sharing your experience! If you have any more detailed feedback or if there's anything specific you'd like to discuss, please don’t hesitate to reach out to our in-app support. We’re here to help. Kind regards,

### 5/5 — Read this review before you buy

*2025-10-31*

It says in app purchases in the description but nothing about this app is free. It cost $69 a year, but if you click the X on the screen that is trying to charge you that amount, it will take you to a screen that allows you to get the app for $40 for the first year. If you click the X on the screen, you are admitted to the free version which has fewer bells and whistles.

**Developer response:** Hi there!
Thanks for donating your time to write the feedback. We’d like to clarify that AI Note Taker offers a 3-day free trial, during which you can use all the features of the app. After the trial ends, you can continue using the app with one of the subscription plans.
Please note that the free version has a limited number of notes you can create, so upgrading allows you to unlock the full functionality. Subscription pricing may vary depending on your country or App Store region.
We appreciate your input and hope you continue enjoying creating notes with AI Note Taker.

### 5/5 — WOW!! Total game changer!

*2025-08-12*

I use this app for all my work meetings and honestly, I don’t know how I managed without it before. The transcription is super accurate, even with different accents or when people speak fast. It can translate the text into any language in seconds — perfect for working with international teams. The summary feature is pure magic, saving me tons of time by turning long discussions or documents into short, clear notes. You can record right in the app or upload audio, and everything is organized so well. The design is clean, easy to use, and just works flawlessly. Huge thanks to the creators — this is easily one of the best productivity tools out there! 🙌👏

**Developer response:** ​Hi Dan_0794! We're deeply touched by your heartfelt message about our app's impact on you. Feedback like yours inspires us to continually improve and push the app to new heights. We're thrilled you're having a great experience and would be grateful if you could help spread the word by sharing our app with your loved ones. Sincerely yours,

### 3/5 — Something went wrong

*2025-05-06*

App started off good I was able to get my audio transcribed then after a couple days, my files were not uploading. “something went wrong. Try again” kept appearing after trying again all day.

### 2/5 — Bad

*2025-09-28*

It translated half of the video I uploaded so I went in and cut the video in half to get the other side and it gave it to me in German???

**Developer response:** Hi there! It seems the translation feature didn’t work as you expected, and we appreciate you sharing your experience.
If you received a partial transcript and wrong language, it could be related to the quality of the recording, an incomplete or poor-quality file, or recording from a distance that prevented the API from capturing everything. We recommend checking your recording’s quality and, if possible, recording closer to the sound source and resend this audio file if possible again for better results.
We encourage you to provide more details through the in-app support so we can better understand the issue. Thank you for your feedback, and we hope to enhance your experience. Kind regards,
AI Note Taker - FoxNote Support Team
