### 1/5 — Scam

*2015-01-10, version 1.0*

Totally scam. Advertise as free then ask for .99 and bombard with ads.

### 1/5 — Junk

*2014-12-28, version 1.0*

Paid $ 0.99 and got nothing for it! Save you money!

### 1/5 — Waste of time.

*2014-12-26, version 1.0*

### 1/5 — Fraud?

*2014-11-21, version 1.0*

I paid the in app purchase.  Didn't give any more functionality, not even the 4th icon which is displayed in the Ad picture.    Uninstalling and reinstalling doesn't keep track of your purchase. Very disappointing.
