Essayer de régler ça au plus vite . Si y’a pas de son sur les vidéos je penses que ça va pas le faire . ### 5/5 — This app is good *2022-06-03, version 2.1.0* This app is good. It’s reliable. It’s working fine ### 1/5 — No funciona *2021-08-20, version 2.1.0* No funciona, dicen que ya la arreglaron pero no es asi. No me deja actualizar terminos y condiciones ### 5/5 — Great Secure Notes App *2021-07-25, version 2.1.0* I have really enjoyed this app over the past 4-5 years. I would hate to see it discontinued due to future iOS incompatibilities! ### 5/5 — Really happy *2021-07-24, version 2.1.0* The App does it’s job perfectly. Great features, intuitive and secure. Just what the doctor ordered. ### 1/5 — Best to worst *2021-07-08, version 2.1.0* This app was my go-to for password security until earlier this year they went completely dark as operating systems on Apple were being upgraded. There was no way to communicate with the app. I had no access to the app. Once they came back online, various warning appeared that they were no longer supporting the app & to download info via iTunes & to proceedat your own risk. Taking the directions to download, which were inaccurate, I discovered that not only was all my info not downloaded but also disappeared from the app altogether. As someone who recommended this app to everyone & anyone, I am deeply disappointed with the developer. ### 1/5 — How do I deactivate my account? *2021-07-05, version 2.1.0* Used to like this app until latest update that has informed me that storing anything on the app is at my own risk. I have removed everything off of the app but would like to deactivate it too. This is incredibly frustrating. I hope someone can inform me of how to deactivate my account? ### 5/5 — Please update according to iOS version. *2021-06-22, version 2.0.5* Please update according to iOS version. ### 1/5 — Needs updating, don’t trust. *2021-06-15, version 2.0.5* Needs updating, no way to contact developer. Don’t do it. ### 3/5 — iOS update *2021-05-31, version 2.0.5* WHEN WILL YOU UPDATE SO I CAN OPEN IT AGAIN WITH THE LATEST IOS VERSION? ## Frequently asked questions about Keeply ### What does Keeply do?
