### 2/5 — Crazy expensive

*2025-12-20, version 1.6.0*

Great idea but holy cow is expensive, sorry but $6 a week for an app subscription is insane. chat gpt here I come.

### 3/5 — Limited Content

*2025-09-20*

The concept of this app is great, however, the comment is limited. For example: multiple learnings/courses on Classical Art Eras, but nothing on modern art. 

Or, things like history focused around Ancient Rome & Egypt, but nothing else. 

Please create more well rounded content.

**Developer response:** Thanks for the feedback! 🧠 We hear you on wanting more diverse content beyond classical art/ancient history. Mindsnap focuses on bite-sized learning, but we are actively working to expand our library with more well-rounded topics, including modern art and broader historical periods, in upcoming updates. Stay tuned! 📚

### 1/5 — Do not buy

*2025-04-10, version 1.5.3*

The content is limited. They don’t have self help books. They don’t answer emails. 
$30.95  wasted. 
Sent multiple emails and they go ignored. They will gladly take your money and give your ZERO support. 

Don’t waste your money

### 1/5 — Do not buy

*2025-04-08*

The content is limited. They don’t have self help books. They don’t answer emails. 
$40 wasted. 

Don’t waste your money

### 1/5 — Trying to contact is a nightmare

*2025-04-02*

I purchased the app back and November 2024. Never been able to use it. The app wants me to pay again. The year has not run out. I’m highly upset and would not recommend unless you want to be scammed.

**Developer response:** Hey, could you reach us out at contact@mindsnap.app? We’ll solve this asap!

### 4/5 — Big Fan but need more lessons

*2025-03-09*

I’ve had the app for almost 2 months now, I use it daily and find it to be a really fun way to learn new thing and expand my knowledge on a handful of subjects. 

My one wish would be for there to be more lessons, more categories and a more diverse group of teachings per subject. 

My concern is that I’ll get through all of the lessons that I find interesting and then hit a wall to where they don’t have the content to keep up with demand. 

TLDR: Dope app, needs more content and more diverse lessons and subjects.

**Developer response:** Thank you so much! This is super valuable feedback! We’ll definitely expand our subjects list! Btw if you have any suggestions feel free to reach out to contact@mindsnap.app 🙌

### 1/5 — Terrible UX

*2025-01-08, version 1.3.8*

Just signed up via instagram for one month, then an additional payment has been taken (which appears a hidden way to charge for an additional service without showing extra incurred costs). But no email summary received, no way to proceed on the app (aside from using through the same process). A dreadful customer experience. Have requested a full refund for all charges. Customer team - please make this happen

### 1/5 — Not good

*2024-12-27, version 1.3.7*

I have paid for app but it is rubbish. Nothing opens without asking for me to sign up after I have already paid.Poor content from what I can see.

### 1/5 — Where’s my plan?

*2024-12-05*

I signed up,paid but haven’t received my plan. Its said I’d have instant access

**Developer response:** Hey, could you send us an email at contact@mindsnap.app? We’ll get this solved asap! 

Thank you

### 1/5 — This is all reading no video

*2024-12-01*

Is being advertised on Facebook reels in the way it was sold you would think it would be like reels or Snapchat hence snap for learning but it’s not. It’s all text based reading.

**Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback! Mindsnap focuses on text-based lessons, but we’d love to understand your expectations better. Please reach out to us at contact@mindsnap.app so we can learn more and improve!

### 1/5 — Cost!!!

*2024-11-30*

What is up with these apps that have you enter multiple times your interests just to get to a point where they tell you you have to pay for it. Paying for an app is fine but tell people that at the beginning so that you’re not wasting their time.

### 1/5 — Duped

*2024-11-15*

I’ll be honest, I saw the ads on Facebook and thought it was more audio/video learning. It’s not… I would describe it as condensed text book reads. With quizzes. If high school was your jam… you found it on your phone. But if your looking for a summarized video, Mindsnap isn’t it. I feel duped.

**Developer response:** Hi, thank you for the feedback! Just to clarify, we don’t run any ads on Facebook or Instagram. There might’ve been a mixup since we don’t promote audio or video features in our marketing materials.

That said, we completely understand your preference for more visual and audio-based learning. The good news is that audio features are already in development, and we’re excited to roll them out in the future!

### 1/5 — Cancelling Subscription

*2026-02-13, version 1.6.3*

Despite numerous attempts to cancel my subscription both on the apps and separate email; it is virtually impossible to cancel my subscription. No sign of any communication from their customer service department to acknowledge my request to cancel my subscription. 😳

### 1/5 — Forced Payment

*2026-01-11, version 1.6.0*

Do not download unless you are willing to pay. The app won’t allow you to go through registration and everything, without the premium subscription option popping up on your phone every seconds. Won’t give it a star if it was possible.

### 1/5 — Cost money

*2026-01-03, version 1.6.0*

You can’t even start without signing up for a 3 day free trial. Scam.

### 1/5 — Not free

*2025-10-13, version 1.6.0*

Don’t download unless you want to pay, open app and immediately goes to “free trial” but you have to give you credit card info and pay if you do not cancel within 3 days

### 1/5 — No choice but to pay

*2025-10-06, version 1.6.0*

Can't even get past registration because it's prompting you to go premium. It's a take it or leave it.

### 1/5 — pay to play

*2025-09-09, version 1.6.0*

you must pay to even open the app

### 1/5 — App

*2025-09-08, version 1.6.0*

You have to pay your listen to it best just go to YT and listen to history more factual and detailed for free

### 1/5 — Absurd

*2025-08-18*

Grossly Overpriced. It is remarkable in this age of marvelous AI capabilities that they give the user only three days to try out the app, then charge an incredible $6 per week. That is a FREAKISH $700-plus in just one year. The user should get at least one week of the trial and be charged $1 per month! These people will fail because they don’t know how to sanely price their product. (But that’s understood; now, with Trump, we understand that insanity is quite alright.)

**Developer response:** We hear you on the pricing! 📚 Creating daily micro-lessons, interactive quizzes, and verifying facts takes a dedicated team to deliver ad-free, high-quality content. Our goal is to make daily learning efficient and valuable. We hope the growth is worth the investment! 🧠

### 1/5 — Scam

*2025-05-30*

Don’t sign up or download this app. Downloaded this app did not sign in or sign up for anything. I got changed $45 dollars for a subscription. I messaged the info email for a refund.. they won’t reply or acknowledge that I did not sign off on anything. Asked for a refund at least 7 times.

**Developer response:** We're truly sorry for this frustrating experience! 🛡️ All trials & charges are managed by Apple, even if you don't recall signing up. Please request a refund directly from Apple at reportaproblem.apple.com. They handle all App Store billing. We hope

### 1/5 — Subscription bug

*2025-05-05, version 1.5.4*

Despite being subscribed, I can’t enjoy a lesson without being forced to the “subscription” screen. It’s ridiculous!!! I’ve deleted & redownloaded the app but it keeps doing it

*2025-03-25*

### 5/5 — Great App Even Greater Founder

*2024-11-23*

I recently purchased this incredible micro-learning app. Whereas the app is offers a great way to consume the knowledge, it was not without the typical user glitch. I emailed App Support late one evening to inform them of the glitch, and to my surprise, I received a quality response, from the Found, the following morning. Moving forward, two email exchanges later, my issue was resolved in an extremely consumer friendly manner. 

Nice work with this app, but more importantly, awesome management and support!

Best wishes…

**Developer response:** Hey, Thank you so much for the feedback! This is much appreciated 🙌

I would say this is just what I needed to increase knowledge. It is also very enjoyable. Impressive App.

### 5/5 — Useful information

A useful app for curious people. Helps to learn fast about a topic from short articles/videos.
