### 1/5 — $0.99 a month for a time zone app?

*2022-06-14*

Last I Checked - Time zones are not changing why does need to be a paid monthly service?

### 1/5 — Does not launch.

*2021-11-07*

Paid $$, downloaded app, restarted Mac, does not open. Does not open from launchpad, not from the app store. Just doesn't even budge. Never had this happen with an app before. UGH.

**Developer response:** The screenshots show that the app lives in the menu bar. I'm sorry if this app doesn't seem intuitive, there are obvious screenshots for where to expect the app to be, but thanks for the feedback and we'll improve on communicating that.

### 1/5 — False advertising

*2021-10-21*

Be careful.  They show 5 timezones but you only get 2 for the app price.  After that it is $2 a month...waht???  It should have mentioned that on the graphic showing 5 zones.  i would not have purchased it if I knew that.  No one likes crappy surprises like that. :-(

**Developer response:** Thank you for the feedback. We've found an issue with the latest app release and we're working hard to release a new update asap.
Meanwhile, please reach out to us on info@flashly.app so we can provide you with a faster fix while Apple approves the new release.

### 1/5 — I used to love this app

*2021-04-06*

I got a new MBP for work and when I installed Flashly on it, it no longer remembers what timezones I select. 

It was an amazing find and I've told many people about it, but now it is a source of frustration for me.

**Developer response:** Thank you for the great review! 😍 We indeed built this personally to help us arrange times with coworkers globally and I'm glad you love it too!

### 1/5 — Not useful!

*2021-02-07*

This app promises more than what it delivers! There is no way to schedule meetings!

**Developer response:** Thank you ArabUsage for sharing your feedback.
The app is a timezone converter and doesn't schedule meetings and we don't have that mentioned in the app description. We're proud with the simplicity of the app to deliver one purpose, instantly convert times between multiple geographies.
However, if you have a suggestion, or you expected something else from the app, we'd love to hear your feedback on how to improve our messaging or add new features: https://flashly.app/feedback or send us an email to support@flashly.app .

If that's not why you purchased the app and we can't help you, please request a refund from Apple: https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT204084

### 5/5 — Love it so much

*2022-12-29*

very fast and easy to switch time zones and catch up with family and working remotely

### 5/5 — Fantasic Timezone Converter

*2021-10-27*

This is such a great application. The power lies in the simplicity and effectiveness of the user interface and allows me to quickly convert times across timezones. Very useful for teams collaborating across multiple timezones.

5 stars all the way!

**Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback, and for loving the app so far! We have released a new version that comes with several  highly requested features. To continue building and adding features we've decided to move to a free version with subscription model that shall affect ONLY new users. All previously paid users should have been updated to have full access to the app without the need to subscribe. There might have been an issue with the release and we're working hard to investigate and release a new update that shall fix the issue for all users. We are sorry for the inconvenience. 
Meanwhile please send us a note on info@flashly.app so we can get back to you with a quick fix if you don't want to wait for the app store update.

### 5/5 — Update: fix coming!

*2021-05-18*

I'm updating my review because the developer was kind enough to respond to my frustration and ensures a fix for this is coming in the next update. Thank you!!

This works in that I can see other time zones, but it's not very easy to use. The most frustrating aspect of it is that when I try to schedule meetings, I need to click away from the Flashly app and onto Outlook, which makes Flashly disappear since it's not a stand-alone app in the dock. So unless I take a screen shot of it, there's no way to remember the times that were selected, therefore rendering the whole app nonfunctional. :(

**Developer response:** The new update will address this issue to keep the window fixed when you need it! Please stay tuned

### 5/5 — super handy

*2021-05-03*

my one wish is to copy/paste all the time zones into an email or document

### 5/5 — Best Time Converter App Ever

*2020-12-24*

I love the app, it's a huge time saver. 
SUGGESTION : The One Thing that I want is to focus on time with my keyboard instead of new location search. So I would like to hit shortcut to open the app and just enter the time I want to change. Right now It focuses on the wrong field and I have to type 5-6 keys to go to Time if I don't want to use mouse.

### 5/5 — Very useful tool - one suggestion

*2020-08-21*

I like the trimmed version in the status bar that pops with a keyboard shortcut - very clean design.
This app is helpful to me in determining an optimal meeting time.  

Two suggestions - 1) It would be great if you could go greater than 5 time zones.  I have a global team and potentially could go up to 8-10 different time zones.  2) The ability to scroll the time "ruler" to the right for a "what-if" scenario would also be a useful feature.  I would be willing to pay a small fee for a 'pro' version.

### 5/5 — Fastest tool on the store

*2020-08-02*

Handy shortcuts and a fast tool. I'm always the first to suggest good times to meet with coworkers in different timezones.

### 5/5 — Exactly what I need

*2020-06-29*

This time converter does exactly the job I need it to do and is much faster to load and use than other options on the market. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

### 5/5 — Very useful app!

*2020-06-22*

I am always having calls with people in different time zones and this app easily helps me find the best time to have a call without having to search for the different time zones in google!
