### 5/5 — Great app, live activity question.

*2026-01-09, version 2025.10*

Love the app, one question, I can’t seem to work out how to get live activities working. Any tips?

### 5/5 — Amazing iOS solution

*2025-11-04, version 2025.10*

Thank you for developing this

### 1/5 — Paid for premium, features still locked.

*2025-10-15, version 2025.10*

Recently paid for the premium features of the application. Have been trying to set up, widgets on my home screen as well as several features in the application, but I’ll fail and keep telling me I need a premium subscription.. This app is not developed well enough to be on the App Store.

### 4/5 — Good

*2025-09-28, version 2025.5*

It’s good for what it does. But is there any way we can indexer search functionality built into the app?

### 5/5 — Brilliant app

*2025-08-13, version 2025.5*

I love this app…simple, clean and does everything I’d want it to. Kudos to the dev for not putting core functionality behind a paywall.

### 5/5 — Simply a wonderful app!

*2025-08-08, version 2025.5*

To be honest, I don't understand why this app doesn't have any reviews. It's great, functional, and has a beautiful design! Keep up the good work!

### 5/5 — Nice

*2025-07-02, version 2025.5*

It’s nice but I’d prefer to be able to have a week trial to see what premium is like (I’ve been burned by apps before, so not willing to risk paying before knowing). Thus, I’ll continue to use the free version.

### 1/5 — Can’t connect

*2025-06-08, version 2025.5*

Can’t connect to sabnzbd. All other local instances connect successfully with the same API key, but Sable doesn’t. No error message, just a vibration with the "Not connected" button. Not very user friendly, I can’t even debug the issue since I don’t know what’s wrong. Uninstalling.

### 5/5 — absolutely Amazing!

*2025-05-31, version 2025.5*

I love the app. Beautiful design, all the features you need and a fair price to support a dev, even if you can use the app without the In App purchase

### 4/5 — Needs to be combined with Ruddarr

*2025-05-24, version 2025.5*

Please combine this app with Rudarr
