### 1/5 — Refund it?!

*2024-04-26*

This application took it upon itself to charge me before the trial was up not only that but 5$??

### 5/5 — It was what i was looking for but don’t like weekly subscription

*2024-01-16*

I don’t like how it’s $3.99 a week…but Its a cute app. There is a small complaint that’s she’s way too talkative when it’s her turn 
I was looking for a cute app that does this and Sheila is very helpful either way.

### 1/5 — App is broken

*2023-11-17*

App doesn’t work

**Developer response:** We had an issue with the service that has since been resolved. Sorry Sheila was down for a few days.

### 1/5 — If it cannot be used with a free subscription then why mark it as a free product

*2023-07-09*

It just doesn’t work on a free tier, constantly asks for subscription without even giving a response, i am aware there is a free 3 day trial but still, if I can’t test it without enrolling into your subscription i will not buy it. I will not recommend this app.

**Developer response:** The subscription doesn't cost anything during the free trial. Apple doesn't charge you anything until the free trial is over. The enrollment is required by Apple so the App Store can manage the free trial period and prevent abuse.
