Now, they're saying I need to pay for another lifetime membership, which I refuse to do. Update - Thank you for resolving the issue. I have updated my review to indicate that my forever is functioning again. However, I cannot give you five stars because the error should not have occurred in the first place. ### 5/5 — Potential *2025-08-26, version 3.0.5* I am enjoying the app ### 5/5 — Ok *2025-08-26, version 3.0.5* Ok ### 5/5 — Good *2025-08-21, version 3.0.5* Good ### 4/5 — Deleting due to broken promise *2025-08-09* Overall, it's a good app, but I'm uninstalling it because I received a free lifetime subscription when it was promoted on AppAdvise.

Please get in touch with us at paraphrase.tool.contact@gmail.com so we can investigate and help restore your access as soon as possible. ### 5/5 — Sehr hilfreich! *2025-08-02, version 3.0.5* Sehr hilfreich, besonders bei gleichzeitiger Übersetzung mit Umformulierung. ### 5/5 — Plant Manager *2025-08-01, version 3.0.5* Game Changer ### 5/5 — Paraphrase Tool gives many options! *2025-07-23, version 3.0.4* Oh, sure, because who wouldn't want an app that magically turns your boring text into sarcastic, humorous, or professional masterpieces with just a few clicks—and offers a plethora of examples so you can pick the best one?

Many tone options. ### 5/5 — Best *2025-07-19, version 3.0.4* Great ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — 1 *2025-10-20* Purchased lifetime on phone, charged me again when added it to my MacBook:( **Developer response:** We’re sorry for the confusion! The lifetime purchase is linked to your Apple ID. When using a new device (like your MacBook), please use Restore Purchase instead of buying again. If you believe you were charged twice, you can request a refund directly from Apple here: reportaproblem.apple.com ### 1/5 — Bug (restore purchase fail) *2025-08-26, version 3.0.5* Subscribe to lifetime doesn’t attach to email - previously my lifetime subscription was attached to my email account but upon updating today 8.25.25 was asked to pay again but knew it was again ft on AppAdvice clicked lifetime subscription which was successful only to restart app and have to again be asked to pay??? 5 times 5 fails and clicking restore does absolutely nothing??????? Help please as it got frustrating after the uninstall reinstall and signup process for THE 6th time and an hour later I took to write a review as it was truly not only wasting time but literally when you can’t restore a subscription do you even ever actually have a legitimate sub or is just some time killer lost experiment??? Is literally the same issue you had in May when you offered the app for free which eventually was solved (but) not as it doesn’t restore that purchase and just continues asking for payment every time you start the app 🤮 ### 1/5 — Deleting due to broken promise *2025-08-04* Overall, it's a good app, but I'm uninstalling it because I received a free lifetime subscription when it was promoted on AppAdvise. Now, they're saying I need to pay for another lifetime membership, which I refuse to do. ### 1/5 — Liars, cheats, thieves *2025-07-22* Unethical developers who think lifetime subscription means 1 week bahaha clowns total garbage developer and trying to restore my subscription brings zero Just a grifter unethical and trashy company a poxe on your family dude as greed is gross but even worse is being a cheating liar with zero integrity THAT is just ick like your business 🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮 **Developer response:** We’re very sorry to hear about your experience. The Lifetime subscription should absolutely remain active indefinitely. If it's not showing up properly, that’s definitely a bug or a restore issue, not intentional. Please send us an email at paraphrase.tool.contact@gmail.com so we can personally look into this and restore access. Thanks for bringing it to our attention. ### 1/5 — Keep asking for subscription *2025-05-22, version 3.0.1* Every time I open the app asking me to upgrade and to subscribe and take me to the subscription page ### 1/5 — Fake promotion *2025-05-21* Hey Developer, Attention please, Today Appadvice lifetime promotion after subscription never shows lifetime pro status. Upgrade option with Pay wall still there, Can you solve this issue **Developer response:** Sorry about the trouble! The Lifetime option is free until May 24. There was an issue causing the subscription screen to reappear, but it’s now fixed. Please try again, and feel free to reach out via the support link if it still doesn’t work. ### 1/5 — No lifetime option available *2025-03-30* Downloaded this 3 days ago. Will only permit one rewrite without sub, so I wanted to buy the lifetime in-app advertised at $0.00 (which it still is as of this writing), but only yearly and monthly options are presented. Will update review if dev fixes issue and honors the current free lifetime option. **Developer response:** Thanks for your feedback! The lifetime option is occasionally made available as part of a limited-time promotional campaign. It’s currently active and will remain available until May 23 at 2 AM EDT (6 AM GMT). During this time, the free lifetime in-app purchase should be accessible. ### 2/5 — Chuck *2025-05-22, version 3.0.1* Chaffin ### 2/5 — So Not Free? *2025-05-21, version 3.0.1* The screen to subscribe keeps popping up after several “Lifetime” option attempts. ### 3/5 — Solved issue of Fake promotion *2025-05-25, version 3.0.1* Review because developer response and solve the problem 3-star for reply now use the App maybe more or less-: Hey Developer, Attention please, Today Appadvice lifetime promotion after subscription never shows lifetime pro status.
