Sorry *2023-08-02* I found it hard to set up. Sorry ### 3/5 — No I’m impressed *2022-04-11* Not overly impressed can do the same thing on my iPhone in Photos for free it’s nothing special about this app ### 4/5 — This is a lifesaver *2021-11-23* I had it on an old phone and I’m so glad I found it again because I’m going to New York City and I really need to have back up if I lose my phone. ### 3/5 — Mehh.. *2021-07-03* Had to save a few photos created with app, then DELETED app to get it to work. ### 3/5 — Meh ~~ *2020-11-27* Does the job as intended, however the quality is very blurry if I has to compare maybe 480p :( ### 4/5 — Ok *2020-01-11* Wish I could make the text bigger and bolder ### 1/5 — Waste of 50p *2019-06-05* U can litterally go and edit a wallpaper for free and add this little text all this app does is SAVE IT TO YOUR CAMERA ROLL i thought this app would make the txt move when swiping TERRIBLE DONT BUY **Developer response:** IfFound app is for users who don't have access to photo editing software but would still like to add if found message to their lock screen. User can indeed move the text to desired position when creating the wallpaper. ### 1/5 — Disappointed!! *2019-05-04* The app will NOT (despite its claims) allow me to crop and resize the photo I wanted to use as my wallpaper. I am using iPhone XS with iOS 12.2. ### 1/5 — Don’t Bother With This *2019-04-20* Can’t size to screen. Clumsy. ### 1/5 — If Found *2018-11-09* Stinks! They don’t tell you that you are required to give permission to read and write your photos. Doesn’t work for me. ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work *2018-11-09* Just doesn’t show the message or picture Can I get my $.99 returned? ### 1/5 — Frustrating *2018-08-12* I only wanted to add the if found message, but after changing if found message there was no way to save. I didn’t want to change my wallpaper, but tried that, too, thinking it would then add the if found message and let me leave selection screen. Nope. Saved wallpaper and was returned to selection screen; no change to lock screen. It would be easier to add if found message in photo editing program. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Not getting the widget *2024-08-21, version 2.1* I purchased the app and found that there is no widget in widgets Section, App is not working in iPad M4. Waste of money ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work *2023-10-13* Doesn’t show up in widgets. Worthless. ### 1/5 — Just Awful *2023-08-12* The least user-friendly, most non-functional app on my phone, and it is such a simple function ### 1/5 — Tough to use *2021-12-03* I still can’t figure out how this app works. Glad I only paid 99 cents for it ### 1/5 — If found app *2021-11-18* It doesn’t work and locks up ### 1/5 — Zero *2021-01-01* Impossible to use, deserves a zero, I want my money back ### 1/5 — Didn’t work for me *2020-11-27* Didn’t save to my image gallery and it created the text in triplicate. ### 1/5 — Meh *2020-08-04* If I’m going to pay for something, it should be be able to scale my image to fit the screen. I’ve had past lock apps that could do that. Would get a refund if I could. Just putting a message block on an image is nothing revolutionary. ### 1/5 — confirmed buyer *2020-07-28, version 1.2.1* Doesn’t work with IOS update ### 1/5 — Ripoff *2019-09-26, version 1.1.1* Only lets you add one line of text ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Awesome! *2024-01-14* Well worth the $2! (*fyi - My phone required a restart before it showed up in widgets) ### 5/5 — Owner info *2023-02-03* Very elegant solution. Recommendable! ### 5/5 — IfFound Works Great! *2022-10-31* This app works great! The app is simple to use and does not take up much space on my phone. My only suggestion to improve the app would be for it to have a dark theme within the app when dark mode is enabled in iOS. My thanks to the developer for a simple to use app that works well. Job well done! ### 5/5 — Helpful and to the point. *2021-02-04* Very helpful for putting up contact numbers for emergency or in case of a lost mobile phone. ### 5/5 — Super *2021-01-11* Super ### 5/5 — Thumbs up!! *2020-08-22* Well worth it and for so little money!!! ### 5/5 — Awesome. *2019-05-21* Had my iphone on top of my car while i put stuff in. Drove away and it went quite a distance before it fell off. It had an Otterbox case on it and survived ok. Some decent person picked it up on the side of the road and called the number on the message on the lock screen. I met them and got the phone back. Was so happy I offered a reward but he wouldnt take it. I will never have a iPhone without this app. **Developer response:** It's always great to hear these stories. Glad you got your iPhone back! ### 5/5 — Simple and effective! *2018-05-05* Does it’s job simply and effectively! ### 5/5 — Does what it says A+ *2017-12-02* Yes, you can do this with picture editing software. But, this app puts a message on your lock screen with almost no effort. Great for my elderly mom in case she leaves her iPhone behind anywhere. ### 4/5 — UPDATED REVIEW *2022-10-15* After much experimentation—I was able to at least get my phone number and email address to display normally. It appears that a total of 39 characters (including spaces) will fit nicely. My contact details—though tiny—appear nice and sharp. And the small size is actually growing on me. I would still have liked to have more characters available, though. I had to remove the word ‘contact’ (from If found, contact …). I would have liked to start with, “If found, please contact…” and I would also have liked to add “Thanks!” Or “Thank you!” at the end. On balance, though—this app is a great idea. It’s a great step up from having Brother labels with my contact info stuck to all over the back of my iPhone case. I’m also very impressed that the developer responded so quickly, and so positively. **Developer response:** Hello, thanks for the feedback! Unfortunately there is not much room to manoeuvre even in the largest widget available. I will look more into the font and overall customization of the widget soon, as well as more options of leaving feedback so expect an update through the weekend! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
