### 1/5 — Doesn't work on my iPhone 12

*2022-08-16*

Don't bother with this one

### 3/5 — Update: sound will not work if…

*2022-06-04*

…your phone is on silent. 

I was frustrated that this wasn’t working on day 2 of needing it. Turns out my phone was silenced, and that prevented the audio from working. (Doesn’t prevent ads from playing on other apps but prevents this app from completing its function. Weird.)

Voice is not great. But it will do the trick short term.

### 1/5 — Don’t bother

*2020-11-21, version 1.1.1*

Brought this to communicate with others as I have laryngitis with no voice. Sound only works with headphones in. Absolutely pointless! Shouldn’t even be available on the App Store, there’s no point it in!

### 5/5 — Good

*2020-08-25*

I kinda lost my voice so I can’t scream

### 1/5 — Don’t waste your money

*2020-02-16, version 1.1.1*

I am suffering with Laryngitis, so am trying to not use my voice. Thought this may help communicate with my family. But it only works if you wear headphones. Total waste of 99p! Save your money and buy a pad and pencil.

### 1/5 — Worthless

*2019-05-08*

Never worked. Don’t waste your $

### 1/5 — I wish I could give this no stars.

*2019-04-23, version 1.1.1*

I am angry that I paid money for this app and it doesn’t even work it won’t make a peep. I would prefer to use this app with ads for free and have it work. I want my money back. By the time someone fixes this, I will have my voice back!

### 1/5 — Only works if you have headphones in??

*2019-03-26, version 1.1.1*

What’s the point of having a ‘attention!’ Option if you can only use it if the person has headphones in? Also there should be a way to custom what’s on your ‘quick’ list and the custom add on shouldn’t be 99p. Ridiculous. I want my money back

### 1/5 — Does not work on iPhone 6

*2019-03-18*

Beware.

### 1/5 — This is a terrible app

*2019-03-11*

Can I get a refund
