## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Can’t Schedule

*2021-05-31*

It’s just a list of music files. Nothing more. You can’t schedule anything at all. Graphics are terrible.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t Work Anymore

*2019-05-06*

Developer has orphaned this app - it won’t play anything, although the app loads and allows you to choose a bugle call. Someone has abandoned their post and gone AWOL - a bad deal in anyone’s army.

### 1/5 — Does not work on iOS 11

*2018-04-30*

Bugle call will not play on iPhone X with iOS 11.3

### 1/5 — Does not work on 5s apparently

*2018-04-21*

Would not work for me

### 1/5 — Disappointing

*2017-03-27*

Did not play anything, notes too small to read.

Back to the internet to search for what I need.

### 2/5 — Disappointed

*2018-04-14*

Don’t bother with this app as it does NOT include many of the basic military bugle calls.

### 4/5 — Good Bugle Call App

*2018-05-18, version 2.0.1*

Contains most of the bugle calls that I need. Suggest a distinct start and stop button to make this app even better.

### 5/5 — Perfect for Scout camp or meetings

*2025-05-22*

Reville, taps, colors, retreat, mess.  And a few more.  It’s All I really need for a flag ceremony.  Thanks!!

### 5/5 — Recently Better Bugle Call App

*2023-03-29*

Contains most of the bugle calls that I need. Suggest a distinct start and stop button to make this app even better.
Update - Edit: New 2023 interface is awesome! Contains a dedicated start and stop button. Very easy to use. Thank you!

### 5/5 — Works great! Could use some enhancements

*2019-04-10*

As mentioned somewhere else it would be nice to have a start/stop function. Took me a while to figure out you weren’t hitting the actual music but the name of the call in the list to start it playing. 

Would love to have the Church Bugle call added as we are using this with my son’s scouting troop and the campout doesn’t end until after the Sunday worship service.

### 5/5 — better than Bugle Boy

*2018-01-28*

This app is so much better than the app Bugle Boy because iBugler has all of the Bugle calls and I would strongly recommend this app to anyone who likes to use an app instead of the real thing and I like the fact that everyone can use this app too.
