### 1/5 — Download with caution!!!

*2020-09-04, version 2.5*

Took 30$ from me, it said start free trial but ended up charging a yearly subscription anyway🤔 and once downloaded you can only access the sounds through Mac or pc🤦‍♀️ I don’t recommend this to anybody that simply wants new ringtones

### 1/5 — TRASH APP DO NOT GET IT

*2020-09-04, version 2.5*

This app is bs I got charged 32 dollars for no reason and you get TRAPPED the first thing you see is a trial with no X or Cancel button. You get charged 32 dollars with no way out of it.

               PLEASE DON’T GET THIS APP

### 1/5 — YOU HAVE TOO BUY

*2020-09-03, version 2.5*

When you get this app you have to pay 30 dollars a month to use it! SOO unworth it

### 1/5 — It’s terrible

*2020-09-02, version 2.5*

Unless you want to pay tons of money a month to use this app don’t buy it. And it forces you to buy the ringtones at the very start. Even if you try to get around it then you won’t hear any of the ring tones. Overall complete waste of time.

### 1/5 — Mmhm truth right here people

*2020-09-02, version 2.5*

Well the app it’s good I guess but on the ads it said for me it was free so I got it and it said 29.99 a year who wants to pay that much for ringtones when you could get another app with the same ringtone and it’s FREE

### 1/5 — Do Not Get This

*2020-09-02, version 2.5*

I got this and the first screen when you open it is the free trial thing. It didn’t have an x or no thank you so I was like ‘whatever’ and got the free trial, except it wasn’t free. It charged me thirty dollars for the supposed trial and I bought a subscription to an app that doesn’t even work well with the last of my grocery money.

### 1/5 — I want a refund

*2020-09-01, version 2.5*

This is not what it showed it was. It said that I had a free trial when I clearly did not and ended up paying $32. I want my money back. This app is just a scam

### 1/5 — TRAPED

*2020-08-31, version 2.5*

So I downloaded it and you can’t get out like when you click it it shows free trial but most other apps have no thank or and X to get out but this one does not and also I wasted my money on NOTHING I could not do anything DONT BUY THE FREE TRAIL ITS A SCAM AND YOU WASTE YOUT MONEY DONT DOWNLOAD SAVE YOUR MONEY 👊🏼🖕🏼

### 1/5 — Worst app EVER!!!

*2020-08-29, version 2.5*

On other apps when free trial pops up you can close it with the X or something.BUT THIS ONE DOESNT HAVE ONE!YOUR JUST TRAPPED THERE!!👁👄👁😒

### 1/5 — False advertising

*2020-08-28, version 2.5*

they said the ringtones were free

### 1/5 — Don’t bother!!

*2020-08-28, version 2.5*

You have to have a PC or MAC to put the ringtones on your iPhone .   Seriously!  Terrible !

### 1/5 — don’t get this

*2020-08-27, version 2.5*

i got the add about it on snapchat and it said that it was free but it’s 30 bucks a year

### 1/5 — Bad bad bad bad bad

*2020-08-16, version 2.5*

Do not get this app. They won’t let you even open it unless you subscribe by paying 30 bucks a year. It also won’t let you cancel the subscription and if you delete the app, and redownload it because you decide what the heck I already paid for full access and can’t get a refund might as well use the app- it won’t recognize you as someone who already bought a subscription. You still can’t open the app. I don’t know how I got subscribed either. I would never do something so stupid as to pay 30 bucks for unlimited RINGTONES. just use YouTube to mp3 my dudes.

### 1/5 — Charged me automatically

*2020-08-14, version 2.5*

Charged me even for the free trial,  set me negative in my account. No way to contact them.

### 1/5 — Free trial

*2020-07-31, version 2.5*

I was suppose to have a free trial and they took the money out of my bank immediately.  I want a refund please!

### 1/5 — Worst app ever

*2020-06-09, version 2.5*

This a really crappie app I cloud not play any of the ring tones and there were pop up adds every 10 seconds.And you should not get this app unless you want to be upset by the fact that it dose not work.

### 1/5 — 𝕡𝕝𝕖𝕒𝕕𝕖 Refund-ℍ𝔼𝕃ℙ 2020

*2020-06-09, version 2.5*

How do I get a return !!!!! 2020

### 1/5 — Full thumbs down

*2020-06-06, version 2.5*

It’s really annyoing at least add ONE free ringtone I give this no stars 😡👎🏾

### 1/5 — Price tag....

*2020-06-06, version 2.5*

No, it can’t be the app says its free see?

No, it’s not free. The second you open the app you can’t even use it with paying for their memebership. In app purchases, more like pay to play. It’s like if you put a candy store with delicious chocolate or whatever inside and they give you a few pics. Just for when you to get in, your presented with a fee you can’t avoide.

### 1/5 — Free Trail not allowed unless you agree to pay $29.99 per year.

*2020-06-06, version 2.5*

I wanted to see what this app was about so I downloaded it. Turns out it doesn’t even let you explore the app with the free trial UNLESS you agree to paying $29.99 per year. I have no idea how this app has so many 5 star reviews and has a rating of 3.8. They probably bought the reviews smh.

### 1/5 — Requires MAc

*2024-01-08, version 2.8*

You have to connect your iPhone to a MAC.

### 1/5 — YOU JUST WANT MONEY

*2022-01-30, version 2.8*

Nope, like bruh, not paying 9.99 a year like you dumb?!

### 1/5 — Absolute scam

*2021-10-13, version 2.8*

Come start a free trial it says, then immediately charges you. 100% scam.

### 1/5 — Crooks

*2021-02-25, version 2.6*

First time downloading and clicked for the free trial and it charged me 30$ when I didn’t even get to pick a subscription type little less the most expensive one.put in a claim with apple and my bank

### 1/5 — Not happy..

*2021-01-22, version 2.6*

I feel ripped off. If you are gonna charge someone then just have people buy it instead of it being a “free ringtone”. Give me my money back and I won’t sue. If I’d have known that it was that much then I wouldn’t have gotten it. Money spent on a useless app. Give the money back and I won’t go for legal action.

### 1/5 — GIVE ME BACK MY F******* MONEY

*2021-01-09, version 2.6*

It does not work all the ringtones are just horrible and when you pay for premium they just take off songs that you pay for is a total rip off.

### 1/5 — Rip Off

*2020-12-23, version 2.6*

The app opens wanting to you start a free trial that is for just a day or so, then it automatically pulls money for a full year subscription. I deleted the app after I saw what garbage was offered on there for ringtones and they pulled an annual subscription out of my bank account. What a scam. I’m reporting you to Apple.

### 1/5 — Do not tap free trial

*2020-12-22, version 2.6*

I tapped free trial and it charged me for a whole year!!!!!!!!! This app is no good!  Do not download!

### 1/5 — Scam

*2020-10-17, version 2.5*

Don’t download this app will charge you when you did not agree to it

### 1/5 — Boo

*2020-09-04, version 2.5*

### 5/5 — Greatest app ever

*2019-12-23*

They are amazing and I have used this app for all my friends and family.

### 4/5 — Was pretty good

*2020-05-29, version 2.5*

I got on the app and I loved it I don’t have a computer so I can’t download the ring tone which I was kinda disappointed with but....the wall paper is awesome.if u want a ring tone from this app make sure u have a computer

### 3/5 — Ringtone review

*2020-05-23, version 2.5*

If you’re gonna create an app like this. Try not making the price for free trial and all that pop up. People can’t pay that much per year just to have ringtones. I think I’m gonna stick to my ringtones that I have already programmed into my iPhone. Don’t get it. It’s just bait for money.

### 3/5 — Good ringtones but fake advertising

*2020-05-05, version 2.5*

Ring tones are good, but don’t buy this based off the advertising, the 3D trump dancing video is a fake.

### 3/5 — The ringtones did not work

*2020-04-22*

The ringtones did not work but the wallpapers are a hole different thing they worked really good for me I love them I will give  3 stars because the wallpapers were so good

### 3/5 — Good but annoying

*2020-02-12*

This app has good wallpapers and ringtones, but whenever I am scrolling through the wallpaper the an add pops up and it keeps on coming back. I like the app but there are to many ads

### 3/5 — I tryed everything

*2019-11-03*

I did everything correctly and it don’t do anything and I tryed everything but nothing happened I don’t recommend downloading it (Also I tryed it on everything)

### 3/5 — Can’t find a way to get the ringtones!

*2019-09-02, version 1.3*

I use this app for my wallpapers as they’ll save to my photos so that I can use them as actual wallpaper for my iPhone but I can only listen to the ringtones and it tells me that I have to save it to my PC

### 2/5 — PLEASE read this short review

*2020-06-04, version 2.5*

Look I would say this is an ok app if it wasn’t so demanding...first of all you can’t use most of the ring tones because you have to be premium....also even if you have the free version then you can’t download it unless you have a Mac or PC I found a free one I really liked and it said I have to have a Mac or PC I do but there were many steps why couldn’t I just download the extension??? This made me very mad but if you had a Mac or PC and had the time to do it it is fine.

### 2/5 — Not worth the price

*2020-04-07, version 2.4*

Not worth paying for honestly. There are also WAY TO MANY adds that just keep popping up.
