### 5/5 — Jayashree.

*2026-07-08, version 2.1*

Like it very very much.

### 2/5 — Won’t sign into Pro account

*2024-05-14, version 2.1*

Paid for Pro account, but can’t sign in and register this app with my pro account because every time I try to login via my Apple account all I wind up with is an error page, something about an error with “Slim App” and then a bunch of code jibberish. Doesn’t matter how many times I try, this app will never let me sign into my TapMedia pro account. And unfortunately there’s no other option but to use your Apple account to sign in. Definitely a bug that needs to be fixed immediately. Otherwise there’s no point in even having a “pro membership”. Unfortunately this isn’t the first Tapmedia app I’ve had this issue with. I’m honestly beginning to regret paying for this stupid “pro membership” that I can’t ever use. If I could get a refund I would. So yeah, if you’re thinking of getting a TapMedia pro membership - don’t. It’s a total rip-off.

### 5/5 — Yeah good one browser

### 1/5 — Scam

*2023-06-03, version 2.1*

Opens page, then pop up to subscribe to pro version.
Pages close do not waste your time or money.

### 5/5 — Melhor app de navegação

*2023-03-15*

O melhor aplicativo que já usei meu Safari do ficava tela preta, aplicativo sem erro nenhum nota 10

### 1/5 — Crashes

*2023-02-04, version 2.1*

Closes on its own. Doesn’t save all history

### 1/5 — Utterly useless

*2022-10-15, version 2.1*

This app barely functions, constantly crashing, lagging and glitching. I felt as if my internet was being run on a potato while using this absolute trash.

### 5/5 — :)

*2022-10-07, version 2.1*
