Easy to grasp UI and a straightforward way to add friends! The only gripes I have is the current inability to import/export details with Pluralkit, along with a much smaller one where your currently fronting alters can’t add notes similarly to SimplyPlural. Otherwise? I’ve been loving it so far! ### 4/5 — Amazing *2026-07-23, version 2.0.2* Amazing for system organizations! There's a couple bugs but that's normal, for example, trying to add alters you've added AFTER a folder to said folder makes them not show up! But otherwise this is amazing ### 3/5 — I have a few questions *2026-07-21, version 2.0.2* Hey, I just started using your app but I am already having some trouble. First, once I create a group, all members are automatically stored there until I create a new one. How do I move the members out or into the group I want it to be in? Second, what’s the point of folders? Can I put the groups in the folders? ### 4/5 — Just one problem noticed *2026-07-17, version 2.0.2* Just downloaded this, it’s pretty great, only complaint is that changing a system member’s theme color changes the color that their name is when viewing all members as a list. Problem there is that a lot of colors blend in to the background and become unreadable so i’m actually pretty limited in what colors I can choose. Otherwise, i mean it’s basically Simplyplural so, it’s good. ### 3/5 — Bugs annoying, but promising app! *2026-07-13, version 2.0.2* To start off, profiles worked generally well albeit with problems regarding saving changes on edits. Switching is very smooth, and the polls work fairly well! (Why are the colors blue and brown though?) However, I found that the messaging feature would stop me from scrolling up to a certain point in the messages history, preventing me from reading past messages. Additionally, the relationships feature is heavily riddled with glitches. Please fix these! I’d also greatly appreciate if layered fronting could be added, rather than just “co-fronting”. Maybe it could work with the re-ordering/moving the profiles up and down the front list to change where it is in the layered front? Otherwise, the app works well and I’m glad it came in time before Simplyplural’s unfortunate server shutdown. UPDATE: The app isn’t working for me anymore, and everything is alerting me that I’m offline despite me being on a very stable and working wifi. Nothing is working. Help? ### 3/5 — . *2026-07-13, version 2.0.2* seems like it would be very nice to use, but since simply plural shut down, there’s no way to get tokens to import with… we REALLY don’t want to have to manually reinput over like two years worth of people and history, so we’ll probably just wait for an option for importing via json or something. idk, just seems like that bit needs an update now. ### 3/5 — the whole free trial thing *2026-07-12, version 2.0.2* i just got this app and i noticed the “free trial” thing and i don’t really want that on there as i don’t want a free trial or subscription because im broke so does it automatically pay after the 21 days or something because i can’t afford that and i don’t get it ### 3/5 — Cant log in / nor sign up *2026-07-08, version 2.0.2* I dont know if its because of a bug but its currently hard right now to sign in / or sign up :( ### 3/5 — Not allowing new accounts *2026-07-08, version 2.0.2* I told one of my friend about the app and we tried to make him an account, but everytime we did it would just say “sign up failed.” I personally love the app (minus the paywall for certain features). I do hope the sign up failed error gets fixed. ### 4/5 — Great, but.. *2026-07-08, version 2.0.2* It is super good so far!! Since simply plural is shutting down, as well as octocon, I browsed the App Store and I found this app, Ive had it for a few hours and it’s pretty great with many good features. But I have friends who are systems who have android phones and are unable to use the app, I would like it to be more accessible!! For all phones :D, There are a few bugs like descriptions and profile pictures not saving, but other than that, it’s quite nice and I like it a lot! I just know with bug fixes and more updates this app will be the new system app :) ### 4/5 — It’s alright *2026-07-07, version 2.0.2* Main functions work. I do think that everything in the side menu should maybe be moved? I feel like it’s too hidden I didn’t realize it was there until like 3 weeks of use. Also the relationships organizer is very VERY broken. You have to zoom out to have enough space but the arrows/lines don’t adjust with everything else they stick to the same part of the screen ### 3/5 — I can't see why this is actually good *2026-07-06, version 2.0.2* So, the title might sound a little harsh. It really isn't meant to be. We're trying to set up the account—but the email isn't letting us. We've double checked, even triple checked the spelling. It is perfectly fine. The emails we are trying to use to set up the account will not work, no matter how many times we put them in and spell them correctly. This leads to us not being able to check out the actual app. ### 3/5 — Figuring things out *2026-07-05, version 2.0.2* had to switch apps due to servers shutting down, this one seems promising so far but my only issue is i can't set the front dates far back enough. i've been front stuck for 305 days and it only lets me go back a month. ### 3/5 — Good app, not free? *2026-07-03, version 2.0.2* So i downloaded this since the reviews were good and it seemed like a good alternative because everything is shutting down, but it says im doing a 3 week free trial? I don’t exactly understand what that means, can i only use the app entirely for 3 weeks or is it for something else? ### 4/5 — Tiny complaints, Major love ! *2026-07-02, version 2.0.2* I absolutely love this app!! One thing is that it is majorly slow. I click to add to co-front and it freezes for a pretty long time, along with clicking on other features. Another thing, when I create a profile it takes many times of reopening the app before they actually appear as a member. I can’t search them or anything. Third thing, when I edit a profile it also takes forever to show any updates. Fourth and final point, it says I have a free trial and I’m unsure what will happen after it runs out. Do I have to keep paying to use the app altogether or are only some features for the subscribers? Overall, though, I really love this app and I’m so glad it exists!!! ### 4/5 — Notifs Bug *2026-07-01, version 2.0.2* i couldn’t find a way to directly like… send an issue in but the notifications have a massive bug where one change sends out 50+ notifs. otherwise, great app! ### 4/5 — Subsystems *2026-06-29, version 2.0.2* I do love this app, it’s well made and well designed. However I would love it if you could add something to log subsystems as it’s a very large issue for our system to not be able to track them, also the groups don’t work for us, every time we tried to make one it would say it was made but never show up 3: please consider adding subsystems, as a lot of systems do have them, THANK YOU!!! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Log in *2026-07-29, version 2.0.4* Tried three different emails and can’t even make an account, doesn’t send me the code no matter what i do. ### 1/5 — Login *2026-07-01, version 2.0.2* It wouldn’t even let me verify my email. ### 1/5 — Great, One Issue *2026-06-29, version 2.0.2* I cannot stand apps that advertise themselves as ~free~, make you sign up for an account, and THEN inform you you are on a time limit. You get 3 weeks free before they will require you pay to access the app. I am all for supporting indie developers, but this cheap tactic immediately turns me and others away. Please, be up front that this app is subscription-reliant after the trial. I only wanted this app to give my partner and friends notifications for switches, and I am not gonna have them pay a fee every month just to do so. Every other feature is fantastic, so it makes me sad we cannot use it. ### 1/5 — Won't Open *2026-06-24, version 2.0.1* The actual app doesn't open. I've had this downloaded twice now and it hasn't opened either time. ### 1/5 — Refuses to open *2026-06-22, version 2.0.1* The app opens for .2 seconds and crashes instantly, looping that and never opening. It doesn't even register it when you swipe up to see all open apps. ### 1/5 — cant even open the app *2026-06-22, version 2.0.1* crashes everytime. ### 1/5 — VoiceOver Support Desperately Needed *2026-06-11, version 2.0.1* I was able to find the verrification email in my Spam folder, so other users, don't forget to check your spam. VoiceOver support is okay but needs improvement. The things to click on to leave notes and switch and such are not indicated as tabs or buttons, just text. This makes it difficul to know what is interactable and what isn't. Also, these things need to be words, not emojis, or the option should exist to remove the emojis as navigation can be slower when using just emojis. Alphabetical ordering should definitely be a thing. I know it was said that this is not planned to be a thing, but this is a definite negative for many if it is not a thing. Impropper formatting. After iporting, instead ofx saying "x members, x chats, x front logs imported" it says x, x x, members, chat, front log" each when swiping. This is poor VO navigation. When clicking on 'more options' in the cha; area, it says "manage visability, delete chat. Both prefaced by unnecessary emojis. And neither able to be activated with VoiceOver. Ceasing testing for now. ### 2/5 — great! although it costs money *2026-07-25, version 2.0.3* works great! although after a while you need a subscription to use basic features. ### 2/5 — Can’t see friends alters *2026-06-18, version 2.0.1* This app is so far good but the problem is that you can’t see your friends alters even when they’re sharing all their alters to you ### 3/5 — no pluralkit token *2026-07-23, version 2.0.2* i can’t really use it since it doesn’t take pluralkit tokens and i don’t want to have to put in all my info for my alters especially since i just finished doing that after sp shut down, and the sp import won’t work because sp is down ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Loving this app *2026-07-31, version 2.0.4* Would absolutely adore if Apple Watch intervention was a feature that was coming. This would solidify that this is the app for me! I love that I can add friends and make polls and notes. Can’t wait to see how this develops but I really need this on my wrist! ### 5/5 — GREAT APP!! *2026-07-21, version 2.0.2* I enjoy the detail in which you can fill out alter profiles, the messaging features and more. ### 5/5 — Works really well *2026-07-13, version 2.0.2* The only slight issues I have is the app constantly saying I'm offline meaning nothing really loads in ultimately making it harder to input anything. Also the alphabetical ordering is a bit annoying, especially when trying to reorder them it's quite sensitive. Other than that the app works really well and is overall visually pleasing and simple. Could we possibly get custom status and maybe a way to input permanent custom status rather than having to constantly make new ones. ### 5/5 — One of the best we’ve used <:] *2026-07-12, version 2.0.2* Okayokay, so we’re an OSDD system and we became very accustomed to Simply Plural, but as it’s been discontinued, we had to look for a replacement. We looked at a couple but we weren’t really fans of any that we found, then we found this through Reddit! :D I personally prefer Parallax to SimplyPlural due to the customization and comforting interface. It’s super easy to use, very aesthetically pleasing, and there’s a bunch of room to express and describe each headmates details, roles and descriptions :) They have a separate space to add their age/age group as well, which is super helpful! People don’t always read full descriptions, so it’s super helpful to have those details right up front. Thank you for this <:] You’ve helped us very much! ### 5/5 — SO grateful for this! *2026-07-11, version 2.0.2* wow, what an outstanding app! i really enjoy the markdown support, logging and sharing front with friends, alphabetical ordering of profiles, profile customization with images, journaling, custom notifications and reminders, etc. the only thing i would really like to see that hasn't already been implemented is a way to separate fronters from co-fronters/co-con or a way to label them as such! the subscription is NOT invasive at all. it ended for me weeks ago, and i still use everything but the social media portions. i don't understand why everyone is tweaking about it honestly; apple developers have to make money somehow, and it's obviously completely optional. you might consider making the subscription optional from the get-go instead of automatically enrolling users in a free trial to avoid that. it's brand new, so of course it's going to have its glitches and bugs. i genuinely get so excited for updates, and i can't wait to see what comes next! i hope our community can give this developer some grace as another human. and one GINORMOUS thank you from our system for such an incredibly helpful app!!! ### 5/5 — Help with app *2026-07-10, version 2.0.2* Thank you so much for this system tool! How do I subscribe? ### 5/5 — actually works and doesnt have a crybaby solodev *2026-07-04, version 2.0.2* please just hire people if tou do make money from this app. i dont want this to be another repeat ♡ ### 5/5 — Great app *2026-06-29, version 2.0.2* It's a big help for us. ### 5/5 — genuinely very nice *2026-06-26, version 2.0.2* honestly this might be one of the best replacements for simplyplural out there. tutorial given for the ui, and its extremely neat, not cluttered. the customization is a nice touch and the groups are something im SO GLAD that was added! it makes organizing fictives sources very well and easier instead of having to number them off to be grouped like on simply. theres a few bugs but they arent so noticeable. me and my partners are going to test out the online feature and hope it works well ### 5/5 — App fails to start on iOS 18.5 *2026-06-25, version 2.0.1* Trying to launch on iOS 18.5 results in the app crashing after rendering a white frame. I can't currently debug this, but a fix would be greatly appreciated!! This app seems like a godsend for my system. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
