Response from developer

Please try again. Working good now!

Misleading

I paid thinking it will charge me £2 per week for my upcoming exam, but it mistakenly charged me £119 per year. Highly misleading because before paying for this subscription I clearly have entered the weekly trial.

Doesn’t let you try before you buy it

Someone told me about this app and the ideia sounds great, but they won’t let you try it before you buy a subscription. I’m not in the mood of paying just to see if it works as advertised.
