Wtf?!

It’s written that it’s ≈10$/mo, BUT THEY CHARGE YOU FOR THE FULL YEAR?! and it was 150$ instead of 120$, really mad

Doesn't Work

Tried for reddit comments, keep getting error "Something went wrong during setup. Please try again." No matter what settings.

Scam - Never works, refund refused

Paid over $100 for a service that never works. Haven’t been able to delete one thing. I’ve contacted support (note their “app support” page doesn’t work), and was false told there’s an update and the issue has been resolved. only to find it HASNT, and other people are experiencing the same thing.

Sigh. Another good app now wants subscriptions for the most used features.

Reddit is the most insufferable place but sometimes the only place to find a niche topic. The users there will stalk your history to find one thing to attack you on so this app was useful to delete my oldest history in bulk. Now it wants you to subscribe for the oldest stuff. I can’t afford to have subscriptions on every app I use so I guess this one bites the dust too. Anyway, last time I used it, I ended up with a few sub bans for spam.

Scam app AVOID

They claim to have free tier but you select it and nothing happens. They want you to pay over 220$ for such a basic service. I’ll unfollow everyone myself and save money. Nice try though

TRASH !!

why make this app and yu gotta pay for EVERYTHING yu wanna do ?? im not paying $94.99 just to delete all my comments on instagram literal scam please delete ur app and never make an app ever again .

$94 to actually use

In order to actually delete tweets older than a month, you have to pay the annual price for the premium subscription which is a shocking $94.

good app

best app ever no flaws

SCAM

This app does not do what it says. It deletes nothing. It just scans your posts and collects data.

Does not delete, can’t find support

When I purchased the one-year subscription, I did so to have a year’s worth of content deletion service. In the past two-three weeks, I have attempted to delete comments and it’s not deleting. It’s editing. I tried contacting support here via “app support”, it takes me to a broken link. I can’t get a refund from Apple because it’s been more than 2 months. I tried visiting the page to find support and it’s either very hidden or not there at all. I also clicked around the app for a support page. Nothing. It also doesn’t have a banner or alert of a known issue. I would like a refund, even if it’s partial. I deleted the app, reinstalled it, removed the social accounts, reconnected…nothing works. It doesn’t delete. Tried again at a later date. Nothing. Updated. Nothing.

We’re very sorry for the experience you’ve had. We’ve been investigating stability and deletion issues reported in version 2.19, and our latest release includes fixes for several of the problems we identified.

We hope the latest version resolves the deletion issue for you, and we sincerely appreciate you bringing this to our attention.

$35 a month is crazy

Way too expensive for something you use once.

Bad update

I love Redact, I have used to for years, however this new update is genuinely terrible. It logs me out constantly, it is needlessly complicated even after I have been using it for weeks. And sometimes I do everything right and it simply doesn’t delete. Please make the app simple again.

Paywall took over

Ive had this app on my phone for a while and it worked well. You were able to select the date range you wanted to delete from. Now I open the app and everything other than “a month ago” is locked behind a Paywall. Id rather just delete my account no big deal, but this app no longer useful unless you want to delete something from up to a month ago.

Cant delete DMs

I tried troubleshooting everything but DMs from Discord won't delete. I'm not sure what I even paid for then.

Use to be fine, error messages now

Keep getting error that something went wrong. Phone and app up to date. Way too much money to not be useable

Has become Trash

Latest update makes this app unusable. It will no longer allow you to log into X. It just stops and stalls out. This app used to be great and now it’s just a waste of memory.

hard to say

Hey,I’m sorry to say but redact….It don’t work no more i tried deleting my tweets on x multiple times,Got no result!!! Tweets are still not deleted

Just Doesn’t Work

Tried several times, spent a $100 on premium and still didn’t work. No option to contact support, no monthly payment option. Don’t bother with this option.

The free version is good

I deleted the last month of posts. Not bad.

Response from developer

Glad to hear it!

Broken on iPad after latest update

The iPad version became badly broken after the latest update (2.18). Discord cleanup setup fails, mention filtering returns 0 results even when Discord itself finds matching messages, and the custom date picker is unusable because parts of the UI are cut off.

The Discord authentication method itself is also broken, so I have to rely on one-time backup codes to sign in. On top of that, the app has repeatedly logged me out, which makes the authentication issue even worse.

I paid for Premium specifically for Discord cleanup. I contacted support and they confirmed the issues were sent to engineering, but they remained unresolved for several days. I ultimately had to perform much of the cleanup manually.

I’ll gladly update this review if the iPad version is fixed, but in its current state I can’t recommend paying for Premium on iPad.
