Scam, paid $1.99 for a black screen and message saying I wasn't a registered/approved user. DON'T buy this they steal your money!!!! ### 1/5 — Not working! *2015-08-04, version 8.0* Hello, for months I've had trouble with the 'posts' , I'd get 'nothing found'. But now.... the whole screen is all black, I've tried deleting and reinstalling and get the samething. Please fix!! ### 1/5 — Doesn't Work. Don't do it! *2015-07-22, version 8.0* Doesn't Work. Don't do it! ### 1/5 — Does not use graph filters *2014-11-10, version 7.3* Was hoping this app would allow me to filter users by facebooks new graph search parameters, but it does not. ### 1/5 — Awful, just plain awful & misleading. *2013-12-14, version 5.8* Just wasted $1.99 for this app. I have an iPad Air. This app crashes every 15 seconds or so. You can't see the calendar drop down. You can't even find or search for what you are looking for. I've rebooted, reinstalled and retried on my iPad and then my 5s. What is the point. I did get 1 search finally and it was a popular search. Not only did it not provide the other searches it should of, it was all messed up too. You guys should be ashamed for charging me when you have an app that is so non functional. Put it in beta. Anything! ### 4/5 — wow *2013-07-18, version 5.2* crashes every time. waist of money. do not buy. ### 1/5 — This app! *2013-07-17, version 5.2* This app is a huge waste of money. I wish I could get my money back. Doesn't do anything special as the graphics remind me of dial up AOL from the '90's ### 1/5 — Don't Buy This Junk *2013-05-15, version 4.1* The app doesn't work at all. ## Frequently asked questions about PowerSearch for Facebook ### What can I search for with PowerSearch for Facebook?
