They make you sign up for an account (giving them your email address and name) before telling you that you need a $30/year subscription to even use the app. They don’t let you delete the account even if you don’t want the subscription. ### 1/5 — All they want is your money *2023-02-10, version 2.1.1* Scammers ### 1/5 — Scam *2022-10-23, version 2.1.1* It’s impossible to get money back ### 1/5 — 7 day trial period not applied *2022-07-30, version 2.1.0* They charge you for a full year straight away, no chance to try and cancel before the advertised 7 day trial period ends. False advertising. Steer clear. ### 1/5 — Scam app-DO NOT DOWNLOAD *2022-07-19, version 2.1.0* I unsubscribed and deleted this app and still got charged $30 for a year, scummy app, definitely disputing and getting my money back. ### 1/5 — Scam *2022-07-17, version 2.1.0* This says 7 days free but automatically bills your credit card I want my money back. Needs negative star rating ### 1/5 — Not a free trial! *2022-07-17, version 2.1.0* I downloaded and cancelled before the 7 day free trial was over, but I still got charged. Now I have to jump through hoops and I have $30 sitting with them. Very deceitful!!!

I gave away my disposable email already. ### 1/5 — Broken *2024-08-28, version 2.1.1* Can’t get past the subscribe page—I select subscribe and nothing happens. ### 1/5 — Paid subscription without any trial period *2024-06-15, version 2.1.1* You can’t even figure out does it really work without investing $30 ### 1/5 — Deceitful business *2023-10-04, version 2.1.1* Download and collects info before telling you to pay to use the app. Very deceitful business practice should be banned from Apple Store. At least give users some kind of trial before charging it’s the least you can do for collecting all users info. ### 1/5 — Dumb *2023-07-22, version 2.1.1* Dumber . ### 1/5 — Infuriating that it’s not easily noticed that you have to pay! *2023-07-21, version 2.1.1* Absolutely ridiculous that you have to pay to use this app and it should be mentioned in large bold letters before actually downloading and providing my email information before learning this! Definitely 0 stars. ### 1/5 — $ *2023-07-07, version 2.1.1* Have to pay to use pretty lame ### 1/5 — Annoying *2023-06-23, version 2.1.1* Hidden behind a paywall 😕😒 ### 1/5 — Pay to use *2023-06-17, version 2.1.1* Not described as paid before giving email address ### 1/5 — 30 bucks but they don’t tell you *2023-04-16* You download the app for free then it actually use it, it’s a “29.99/yr subscription” and THEN you go to pay and it’s $45AUD. ## Most praised reviews (2 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Pretty good! *2022-05-22, version 2.0.0* Works really well for most shoes, I use it to keep track of shoes I own / want.
