I love to draw and name my drawings. I thought this app would give some inspiration for names. But I literally can’t get past it. Like I have to put in a free trial just to get in the app no thank you so if this just a bug could you maybe put it on your list for things to fix and update. And maybe a version of the app that is free forever and not for however long the trail is and again If that is just a bug fix it please. I’ve also heard that the one star reviews don’t get posted and please post those so people can give their honest opinion. Our feedback will make your app better! ### 1/5 — TERRIBLE APP *2021-07-09, version 3.3* Says “Start Free Trial” Greg proceeds to charge you 29.99. I wish I could rate 0 stars. ### 1/5 — Scam *2021-07-03, version 3.3* Offers a free trial and when you click it they charge you 30$ for the year trial. ### 1/5 — Scam *2021-02-04, version 3.3* They charged me, it’s a scam ### 1/5 — Rip-off *2021-01-21, version 3.3* To get into the app, you HAVE to push a button to Start a Trial, then it charges $32 instantly. How do they get away with this?! What a SCAM!!! ### 1/5 — SCAM *2021-01-16, version 3.3* Ripped me off for £30. No options to get my money back. DO NOT DOWNLOAD - SCAM ### 1/5 — ??? *2021-01-10, version 3.3* Downloaded it to use once and realise it charged me £30 for absolutely no reason ### 1/5 — Paid? *2020-12-13, version 3.3* Why do you have to pay real money just for some stupid name generator ### 1/5 — Now i have to pay??? *2020-12-06, version 3.3* I’ve been using this app for years to get names for OCs and other characters i make. it’s been a while since i’ve used it since my character creating related hobbies got shelved for a bit. i went to use it today and it brings me to a free trial page??? i’ve been using this app for years, it has been on all of my apple devices for years, and you’re telling me i have to pay for it now?? and 30 dollars a year at that?? to generate names???? that’s garbage. i’ll go find a name generator elsewhere. ### 1/5 — Worthless *2020-09-29, version 3.2* The only way to get into this app is to subscribe when you open it. It is not clear this was going to be charged. Not only that there are 3 options for subscription. There is no place to choose your subscription level on this first screen when you open the app, and their is no way forward, but to subscribe. Also I was billed automatically for the highest price. So terribly misleading only to get into the app and see it is worthless for the name generation purposes I need. I feel so stupid and taken advantage of. I’ve contacted apple. I wish could get the help I needed with this app. That is a bummer I can not, but I’m glad apple will refund this. I was looking to get an artist name. Not even close to being as helpful as the free name generators online, which are somewhat challenging to use there already. Not good. ### 1/5 — Terrible *2020-09-16, version 3.2* Charged me 30 dollars without a free trial. Never get this app it is pointless ### 1/5 — Can’t access it anymore *2020-08-22, version 3.2* App is broken ### 1/5 — Overpriced *2020-08-12, version 3.2* $30 for a year is very a steep price don’t you think ### 1/5 — Disappointed *2020-06-21, version 3.1* I thought it would be a great app, just what I wanted. Downloaded it, opened it. Pressed the button to start, but it would send to the premium page to buy the app. Repeated attempts resulted the same. Not free or trial. Straight to buy! ### 1/5 — "Favourites" list is gone! *2020-05-27, version 3.0* The ability to add names to a list of favourites and have them all saved was pretty much the only thing that set this app apart from other name generating apps I've tried. I really liked that feature! I didn't have to take a screenshot of every name I fancied, I could just add it to the list of favourites, browse it, and export it as I desired. No more :( now I've got to try and find another name generator app that lets you save and export the names :( - 2020-05-26, 23:09 ### 1/5 — Really useful *2020-03-14, version 2.4.2* It is really useful it has a lot of names to help me create characters in stories I’m writing. ### 4/5 — Good *2020-02-21, version 2.4.2* It’s a good app but I can’t really think of a use for it yet ### 2/5 — Bad app *2019-05-24, version 2.4.2* This app won’t let me give a one star but I gave the two but this app don’t recommend at all ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Never download this app, their are thieves *2023-06-26, version 3.3* I downloaded this app and they charged me 29 dollars for a subscription that I didn’t even signed up for and when you go to apple to ask for a refund, you’re not allow to. Whoever made this app is a thief and a scammer but don’t worry there’s a God that sees everything and your time will come. ### 1/5 — Just use google *2023-04-14, version 3.3* bros want you to pay them money to see names from different nationalities ### 1/5 — Forced to subscribe *2022-07-15, version 3.3* I clicked the option for the free trial and was instantly billed for the year subscription of $30 ### 1/5 — Scam *2022-04-16, version 3.3* If you try to choose the free trial, it charges you for the full year. Straight lies. ### 1/5 — SHOCKING - DO NOT DOWNLOAD *2022-04-13, version 3.3* Downloaded for the ‘free trial’ and it immediately charged me £29.99 which I can’t get back . Total scam ### 1/5 — Aggregated *2022-01-15, version 3.3* Wanted to do free trial….got charged immediately! Attempting to cancel and the option is nowhere it’s supposed to be!! This was not what I was looking for so I did not want to do the trial or subscription! I feel like I got scammed just by downloading this app!! ### 1/5 — Terrible app! *2021-12-07, version 3.3* This is a scam. It says free trial, but then you automatically get charged for the year! There is no way this app has 5 stars. Now I have to dispute it with my credit card company. ### 1/5 — Rip *2021-10-20, version 3.3* You download it and have to automatically pay for it. Stop listing apps as free then make you pay to use them. Waste of time ### 1/5 — Tricked into subscribing, now can’t cancel *2021-08-08, version 3.3* I downloaded the app expecting an in-app purchase. However, when it downloaded, it signed up immediately by opening the app. The $29.99 seems excessive for this app, so I went to cancel immediately and now there’s no cancel button under my subscriptions. I’m going to have to contact Apple and drag this out. ### 1/5 — This is a scam! Do not download! *2021-08-03, version 3.3* The “free” download automatically charged me the full year subscription fee and it’s the most useless app I’ve ever seen. I downloaded it just to see what it was about, and low and behold got an automatic “thank you for your yearly subscription”. The developer is called joke masters.. probably because this app is a total joke and scam. Shame on you for stealing money from people without giving the option to chose. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Those are thieves and lairs *2021-05-06, version 3.3* Ther wrote free trail and they charged me $40 right away ### 5/5 — I love this app *2020-06-02, version 3.0* This app is so useful when you need to find a name as their is not many apps out there that have the same quality as this. I find it great for when I need to pick a name for a character for a game I am playing or something! ### 5/5 — Awesome!!!! *2018-05-19, version 2.4.2* This app gave me awesome name ideas for a Fortnite character that I made up!!!! ### 5/5 — Serves it's purpose *2017-03-26, version 2.4.2* Works perfect, looks nice, gives a random name every time. Ads are subtle and not at all intrusive. ### 5/5 — Great *2017-02-15, version 2.4.2* Simple to use and exactly what I need ### 5/5 — Just what I needed *2016-07-25, version 2.4.2* Easy to use, it has genders as well for first name selection so I don't understand the previous comments maybe the app has been updated since.. Anyway no lie when it says diverse names. Great app, easy to use, large font, and it's free. ### 5/5 — Literally perfect *2016-06-05, version 2.4.2* This app has literally all the features I wanted in a name generator. It generates real-sounding and diverse names, and it looks amazing. It's by far the best on the App Store. ### 5/5 — Nice *2016-06-01, version 2.4.1* Interface needs a facelift but it performs nicely. Doesn't have to look good to do exactly what it promises. 👍 ### 5/5 — Perfect *2016-05-19, version 2.4* I couldn't ask for a more perfect name generator! ### 5/5 — Just what I was looking for *2016-05-17, version 2.4.1* I'm a writer of fiction novels and coming up with unique names for literally hundreds of characters in my books can be difficult, often the most challenging part of the process. This handy little app makes quick work of providing me with an infinite variety of choices across virtually every nationality in seconds.
