### 1/5 — App doesn’t work iPhone

*2023-07-17*

App doesn’t open for iPhone I receive domain error 1012. Call tech support and they say”can’t help you with iPhone download”

??

### 1/5 — I’d give this less than a star if possible

*2021-04-22*

So downloaded. Had to go through enormous amounts of registration just to even look at. App crashes all the time. Keyboard wouldn’t even show up when I try to login. Paid the premium subscription because they said it was the only way to use card reader. Can’t get app to accept our CC processor Authorize.Net. This should be removed from App Store till it’s fixed

### 5/5 — Useful app

*2019-01-16, version 1.8.2*

I use this app to process payments using card reader. I have both versions: for iPhone and for iPad - both works great for me

### 1/5 — Help!! Is this app working for anyone else?

*2018-09-18, version 1.8.1*

Its non functioning for me... I loved my Payapp, I neeeeeeed my Payapp!! Is it working for any one else? Constant error message for 2 days now....

**Developer response:** Hi,

We have been working on an issue that has been resolved and submitted to Apple for approval.

Thanks.

### 1/5 — Braintree integration doesn't work

*2016-10-07, version 1.7.5.9*

Please make this work and I'll update your review

### 1/5 — Poor app

*2016-01-09, version 1.7.5.3*

I really want this app to work because I was really hoping to find something to use with my Braintree account but I have tried a few times in the past and I tried again today and I just can't get it to work. First of all you can logging in to an account you set up a Rudy's confusing. If you try to set up a new account with the same email it doesn't tell you till the fourth step in the process that you can do it. But anyhow if you get in and you try to use the scan feature it doesn't explain it all out works. I tried to use the photo feature and it crashed the app and I could not get back into the app and restarted.

So now I can't try the third option which is to enter a card manually. Overall this is a great idea but very poorly executed.

### 5/5 — Great customer service!

*2015-02-26, version 1.7.0.0*

Great customer service! Exactly what I needed in a simple app to w

### 5/5 — Attn Stripe Users

*2014-10-28*

This is by far one of the most simple, reliable and great to use credit card processing apps, with no fees(!). Just note that the scan feature requires a bar code which others must have in order for the feature to work, and there is a $999/per transition cap... However simply entering the card is easy. Well done guys!

### 5/5 — Great business tool for your pocket.

*2014-10-24, version 1.6.0.3*

This is by far the best app for processing credit cards I've tried thus far. No fees!! Awesome tech support as well.  Mark helped me fix a small but annoying problem in a very short amount of time.  Keep up the good work guys!

### 1/5 — HORRIBLE APP - DO NOT DOWNLOAD

*2014-05-04*

Doesn't let the user have a jailbroken device. Wasn't even able to test the actual app.
