### 1/5 — Fake

*2026-07-15*

Very fake

**Developer response:** Thank you for taking the time to write such detailed feedback—we truly appreciate it, even though we're sorry it came from a disappointing experience. Our development team is currently focused on rolling out new features and refining the overall experience, and your input will directly inform our priorities. If you require further assistance, please do not hesitate to contact our customer service team.

### 1/5 — Scam

*2026-07-15*

The ads said you can track the person without them knowing it but as soon as you download it and pay it says because of privacy reasons both parties needs to approve if they want to be followed.

**Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback, and we're sorry for the confusion. The reason we ask you to invite friends to your circle first is that location sharing is designed as a private, mutual feature—you can only share with people you've connected with. To be transparent, this is also shaped by Apple's privacy requirements, which restrict how location data can be shared between users without explicit mutual consent. We know this setup could be explained much better, and our team is already working on improvements. If you need any help, please reach out to our customer service team—we're here for you.

### 1/5 — Beware

*2026-07-14*

This app is trash it’s not free like advertised it needs to be taken off the App Store ASAP!!!!

**Developer response:** We're genuinely sorry to hear this—and we completely understand why you'd feel this way. Let us explain.

We don't currently offer a free trial, and we hear how disappointing that is. This isn't because we don't want to—we're actively working on building a trial program, but we want to make sure it's ready and provides real value before launching it.

We're not a scam—we're a small team working hard. If you've subscribed and aren't satisfied, please do not hesitate to contact our customer service team and we'll make it right. We genuinely want to do better.

Best Regards,
Locaro Developer Team

### 1/5 — Not true

*2026-07-12*

The promo clip says you do not have to tell the other person, but the app require the other person to give oke. So your add is just lying.

### 1/5 — Fake advertisement

*2026-07-11*

On their advertisement it says you can locate somebody without their permission. It still needs permission. Waste of money to subscribe

### 1/5 — Don’t download!

*2026-07-10*

They trick you. They tell you the app is free, then they mess you up in the GUI setup tricking you to accept a years subscription. Don’t support this.

### 1/5 — Misleading app

*2026-07-09*

This does not show anyone’s location

**Developer response:** We're sorry for any confusion regarding the location-sharing feature. To use it, you'll first need to invite your friends to join your circle. Once they've joined, location sharing between you and your friends will be automatically enabled.

We know this step isn't made very clear upfront, and our team is already working on making the process more intuitive. If you have any questions or need help inviting your friends, our support team is here for you.

### 1/5 — False and a SCAM

*2026-07-08*

Does not work the way advertised. Gives you the impression you can track someone. It first asks you for their number and gives the impression that they have the information but you have to pay to see it. As soon as you pay it tells you that the app can’t track and you can’t see anything without them sharing a code. Will be requesting a refund and request apple removed the scam from the App Store.

**Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback, and we're sorry for the confusion. The reason we ask you to invite friends to your circle first is that location sharing is designed as a private, mutual feature—you can only share with people you've connected with. That said, we completely agree that this flow isn't explained well enough, and our team is working to make it more intuitive. If you require further assistance, please do not hesitate to contact our customer service team.

### 3/5 — DisqusSpy helped me

*2026-08-08*

I was tired of having serious and legitimate suspicions about my long-time boyfriend and he protects his phones like Fort Knox. I've seen positive reviews on a few spying sites and boards about DisqusSpy (AT) gmailL•com
