### 4/5 — One of the best

*2026-09-05, version 3.20.0*

This is a really great app. Definitely saves time for notetaking meetings, interviews investigation, etc. however, I would like  to capture a more of the minutia in the summaries.

### 4/5 — 5

*2026-07-13, version 3.17.0*

nice

### 2/5 — Cancellation Difficulty

*2026-06-30, version 3.17.0*

The app is great, but I was a couple of days late on preventing an auto-renewal. Been trying to submit a request for a refund but their contact us feature isn’t workin.

### 3/5 — Q

*2026-06-28, version 3.17.0*

How much is it? Worth it?

### 1/5 — Awful customer service and feels like a scam

*2026-06-01, version 3.15.1*

I downloaded this app to help me with an assignment around 5 months ago and I cancelled my subscription a week after I subscribed. Come 5 months later and I still am subscribed after I cancelled the free trial, the app has no real way to cancel the subscription in a easy manner and the customer service is not helpful what so ever. This made me feel like I have been scammed and will never use this app again I don’t recommend anyone use it

### 1/5 — 最悪

*2026-05-30*

登録したら自動でサブスクになる仕組み解約の仕方がわからなく、メールでの対応は遅いので結局お金を取られる

### 1/5 — This app is NOT free!

*2026-05-29, version 3.15.1*

This is misleading saying it is free!

### 1/5 — Do not buy a subscription

*2026-05-27, version 3.15.0*

I wish I could write this lower but once you buy the subscription, even if you delete the account, you can never cancel it. Don’t ever buy this app.

### 1/5 — Good luck canceling

*2026-05-25, version 3.14.0*

I rarely used this app so I made sure that I cancelled within the trial period. It took me over 20 minutes trying to do it on the app which does not work. I spent more time trying to cancel than I did using it.  They make it easy to sign up and super tricky to cancel the subscription. Good luck.

### 3/5 — Free??

*2026-05-15, version 3.14.0*

This app is not free! It's $7.99 a week, which is REDONKULOUS!! I need this for one or two meetings a week. That does not justify charges of nearly $30 a month!! The memberships should be tiered to match the actual use of the app.

### 1/5 — クソ

*2026-04-29*

購読したら解除できないクソアプリ
無駄に800円払わされた

### 1/5 — Constantly loses recoding

*2026-08-19, version 3.19.0*

This app has helped me with some work, but the amount of work it has caused me is devastating. I have relied on it to record sessions for dog training consultations, and it has completely randomly stopped and erased the recording. This has resulted in an immense loss of information that I was not writing down because I believed it was being successfully recorded. Attempts to resolve it have gone unsuccessful. If you use this, be prepared to lose your data.

### 1/5 — Cette application est horrible

*2026-08-06*

### 1/5 — Oblong22

*2026-07-28, version 3.17.1*

I downloaded this app because it was “free.” Then told it was only free for the week trial. Then $7.99 per week. That’s over $400/yr!! No thanks

### 1/5 — Not picking up other languages

*2026-07-26, version 3.17.1*

They claim to support over 100 languages and code-switching. It only supports English

### 1/5 — Beware

*2026-07-21, version 3.17.0*

Cancelled 3-day free trial within 24 hours. Was billed for 1-year subscription anyway. 
Cannot find anyway to contact developer for assist.

### 1/5 — Great app but not at this price.

*2026-06-14, version 3.15.1*

If I were still working, I would advocate for my original buying this.

### 1/5 — Stop charging me

*2026-06-11, version 3.15.1*

I canceled my subscription so please stop trying to charge my card. You have tried to charge my card 6 times now. I don’t want your service.

### 1/5 — App is not free

*2026-06-02, version 3.15.1*

Um, a bit disappointed that only 3 days are free. As a financial services company they have great interest in tracking you and using data. Should actually be paying you to install the app.

### 5/5 — Great Tool & Customer Service

*2026-09-03, version 3.20.0*

I started using this app several months ago because I am the minute taker for several committees. This has been a game changer and allows me to listen more instead of concentrating on writing. Although I do write my own minutes, they’re usually based off the summary that is produced and I double check questions against the written transcript in case something seems off. I have gotten so many compliments on my thorough notes since using this app! 

Tonight I had a meeting but when I got my summary and transcript, large pieces were missing and I was in a panic. I reached out and provided feedback and the customer service team were able to re-process my recording and get every bit of the notes. A recent update to the app defaulted one of the settings that caused this and they also told me how to turn that off. Amazing product and amazing customer service.

### 5/5 — Where is audio export in the updated version?

*2026-08-24, version 3.19.0*

“In previous versions of Owll I could export the audio recording from a completed meeting and save it to Google Drive. In version 3.19.0, the Share & Export screen no longer has an audio export option. Export files to Email also does not provide the audio file. Was this feature intentionally removed, or is this a bug in 3.19.0?”
