### 2/5 — Transcript

*2026-02-03, version 1.4.12*

Only worked once which was amazing for the one time it worked and the rest it did not

### 1/5 — BE VERY VERY VERY CAREFUL OF THIS APP

*2026-01-19, version 1.4.12*

This app is an absolute Bandit, Day light robbery 
They would have hidden ways to get you sign up and then charge exorbitant amount of 1 year subscription without you even knowing that
Their service will absolutely not resolve anything for you. 


I wish i could give 0 rating but that option is not there

### 1/5 — SCAM

*2026-01-15, version 1.4.12*

SCAM

### 1/5 — Don’t even bother

*2026-01-05, version 1.4.11*

This app is a scam.

### 1/5 — Literally can't do anything

*2026-01-03, version 1.4.11*

This is utterly useless, they want $99 per year and it can't even do what I want. I just want to translate the audio of a video to English and no one can do that. This was recommended to me by AI, which was not one of the options in your stupid questionnaire at the start. Literally utterly useless, this app did absolutely nothing. And then they want $99 a year to do nothing. Thanks for nothing.

### 1/5 — Scam

*2025-12-19, version 1.4.9*

hati-hati untuk semuanya, jika kalian mencoba aplikasi ini atau bisa disebut hanya trial, lebih baik jangan, karena ketikan kalian mendaftar dan mencobanya, bulan selanjutnya uang kalian akan tiba2 ditarik senilai 168USD dari akun bank yang kalian kaitkan, setelah dilihat ternyata 168USD itu adalah paket berlangganan setaun, jadi lebih baik kalian pikir2 lagi untuk menggunakannya

### 1/5 — Uselsss

*2025-12-18, version 1.4.9*

Usless

### 1/5 — Dishonest company, not worth it

*2025-12-04*

This is one that is not worth the trouble.  They will offer you a free trial, but buyer beware, you will be billed before it has even ended and they will refuse to refund. Not worth the trouble.

**Developer response:** You're right to call this out — billing before a trial ends is not acceptable and we've fixed this. Our pricing model has been completely rebuilt with a genuine free tier and honest upfront costs. If you were charged, please email support@screenapp.io for a full refund.

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2025-11-18*

Does nothing but ask to upgrade.

**Developer response:** Sorry about that experience. We've reworked the free tier so there's more you can do before hitting an upgrade prompt. If you'd like to give it another go, we think you'll find it a much smoother experience now.

### 1/5 — Stay Away

*2025-11-13, version 1.4.2*

Like the post called BOGUS, my experience makes me wonder if this is legit.  I tried the 3-day trial but found the DELETE button was not active.  I wrote Customer Service to request cancellation, have not yet had a reply.  I will change my credit card if needed but BE ADVISED!

### 1/5 — Деньги потрачены напрасно, функции не работают

*2025-10-18*

не рекомендую. оплачена подписка на неделю, прошло уже больше 24 часов, а функции не работают, всплывает сообщение об ошибке. служба поддержки не отвечает уже более 24 часов, деньги потрачены напрасно.

I don't recommend it. I paid for a week's subscription, but more than 24 hours have passed, and the features still don't work. An error message keeps popping up. Customer support hasn't responded for over 24 hours, so it's a waste of money.

**Developer response:** Нам очень жаль, что вы столкнулись с такой проблемой. Если функции не работали после оплаты, это недопустимо. Пожалуйста, напишите на support@screenapp.io — мы вернём деньги. Мы переработали приложение и исправили эти проблемы.

### 1/5 — Scam

*2025-10-16, version 1.3.43*

App charged me immediately $10.99 for the plan, but it never worked and never let me do anything.

### 1/5 — Apparently Bogus

*2025-10-08, version 1.3.42*

I was searching for AI tools and was interested in Claude. Somehow in researching and trying to activate Claude this site asked if I wanted to download the Mac application which I selected and downloaded the application. Mistake> 
The name was different but I thought it may be an application face to interact with the LLM as I was seeking. Wrong again.
I chose what I thought was an activation of Claude—power of a thought and intent—and messed up. No customer service number and cancel account did not appear to work or be verified. Not even one star WARNING

### 1/5 — Misleading & Expensive

*2025-08-26, version 1.3.35*

The app prompts you to go right to the point where you are ready to convert something to a transcript and only then does it require you to pay near $300. 

It wouldn’t even let me do this as a one off to see if it’s a good app. It made me make and account, put something in for conversion, then asked for $299 or $599. 

I’m all for being paid for providing a service but the developers don’t need to do it in a misleading and deceitful fashion. Cheers

### 1/5 — Too costly for limited use

*2025-08-18, version 1.3.35*

Price point is way out of line.  Too many other AI options out there that can do the same for way less cost.  It is a great app, but simply way too costly.

### 1/5 — No free trail

*2025-06-30, version 1.3.33*

I was looking forward to trying this app out, but they straight up will charge you 50 bucks not even a chance to see if it's even worth it or not so I had to give you one star because if I pay for it and don't like it then I'm out 50 bucks

### 1/5 — PÉRDIDA DE TIEMPO

*2025-05-29, version 1.3.32*

LA APP SOLO FUNCIONA SI ES PAGA. Pero incluso así, realiza transcripciones erradas al español.

### 1/5 — Garbage company

*2025-04-15, version 1.3.26*

Don't buy it if you are in Australia or just everywhere
Their currency is USD and there's no way you can find any conversion rate during check out and doesn't say anything during that process nor on privacy policy or terms and services. If you go to straight into log in and hit the upgrade button, you will never realise it is based on USD.
They also trying to hide everything and will show you the most expensive options that you have to pay at once with cheaper price because, if you choose monthly, you can cancel one month later but you need to remember they won't bother giving you a refund.
What a nice way of spending $650
Remember this app is scamming you and you really don't want spend money on this thing as they just want your money out of your pocket.
I send them an email and they said they can't give me a refund because of their policy.
I didn't even use this app and it's pretty disgusting.
They don't even offer the change between monthly and annually so if you want to waste your money then buy it.
I will update my review if they give me a refund or part of the refund which I highly doubt that they just think you are an ATM
what a nice company

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — This is the worst AI app I’ve ever used.

*2026-08-11, version 1.4.46*

This is one of those apps where if you could rate it lower I would. This is the most useless app out there. I’m so glad I didn’t pay for it. It’s that bad.

### 1/5 — Не дает войти. Ошибка

*2026-08-09*

В веб версии пока не зарегистрирован ничего  сделать нельзя. Зарегистрировался, на весь экран вылетает оплата, пока не оплатишь, 3 бесплатных раза не дает попробовать. 
Скачал приложение,пытаюсь войти, а он не дает, пишет ошибка. Если на этом этапе такие проблемы, то покупать точно не стоит подписку

### 1/5 — Abysmal

*2026-08-08, version 1.4.46*

Should be used as a cautionary tale to UX students. 

Triggers recordings, which eat up the trial, doesn’t notify you of this until you wait an hour uploading a video, then tries to force you into a subscription. 

Has no button to close the settings menu, which means if you open it, you have to close the whole app. 

Can’t believe anyone made a dime putting this together.

### 1/5 — Broken

*2026-07-28, version 1.4.45*

I used it once in the second I go to open it again. It refuses to open. It’s just frozen. This is ridiculous. I want my money back.

### 1/5 — Trop de bug

*2026-03-18*

Cela fait maintenant deux mois que j’utilise l’application, je n’ai pas arrêté d’avoir des bugs dans la récupération de mes enregistrements dans la retranscription des éléments. J’ai déjà fait deux réclamations. La première a été résolue. La deuxième reste sans réponse. Et là je me retrouve avec deux enregistrements de réunion que je ne peux pas récupérer parce que l’outil a planté. La première fois le service client était plutôt réactif et à trouver une solution au bout d’une semaine la fois suivante, je n’ai pas eu de réponse, il y a d’autres applications beaucoup plus fiable qui ne nous laissent pas en plan pour récupérer les synthèses de réunion.

### 1/5 — Useless

*2026-03-17*

Why do you have to buy a subscription to upload media. Mind blown.

### 1/5 — Transcribe

*2026-03-09, version 1.4.19*

It takes a long time to transcribe.

### 1/5 — Don’t waste your time

*2026-01-29, version 1.4.12*

It doesn’t work. At all. Ever.

### 1/5 — Disappointed

*2026-01-27, version 1.4.12*

Tried to charge me 228 dollars without my consent within the first week of trial I had emailed to discontinue this from the first day.

### 1/5 — Bad!

*2026-01-20, version 1.4.12*

not even 5 minutes in and we get a free trial? we cant even skip this. 8.33 per month! all the ratings on the app is fake. This also uses ai! they say that ai is gonna take over but all it does is literally nothing! We should have no such thing for a free trial. The ratings are just from the developers. and so on. please don’t play this.

### 5/5 — The Ai tool I didn’t know I needed

*2026-02-13, version 1.4.14*

I do not usually take the time to write reviews, but this one earned it.

ScreenApp has quietly become one of the most valuable tools in my day to day workflow. It records my live meetings without friction. It captures conversations clearly. It gives me transcripts that actually make sense. And it allows me to revisit key moments without scrambling through notes or relying on memory.

What really stands out is how simple it is. I open it, it works. No drama. No confusion. No complicated setup. It just does what it promises. That alone puts it ahead of most apps out there.

I also use it the way I would use Loom. I can record my screen, explain ideas, train my team, and send clear communication without having to schedule another call. That has saved me hours every single week. If you lead a team or manage projects, you know how valuable that is.

Another feature I love is being able to record YouTube videos. There are times when I want to study something, reference it later, or share a clipped insight with someone on my team. ScreenApp makes that easy and organized.

The AI behind it is what really separates it from everything else. It does more than just record. It helps me think. It pulls out key points. It helps me see what was actually said instead of what I thought was said. That alone improves decision making.

If you are in business, sales, leadership, content creation, or even just someone who values clarity, this app is worth having. It removes friction. It creates leverage. And it keeps important conversations from slipping through the cracks.

There are a lot of AI tools out there right now. Most of them overpromise. This one delivers.

### 5/5 — Super easy and slick design

*2025-08-14, version 1.3.35*

So easy to use. I’ve been using the desktop app for a while so it’s awesome to see it on mobile.

### 5/5 — Perfect to share updates and recaps of client calls

*2025-04-04, version 1.3.22*

Love the templates feature. So easy to share updates of any client meeting in a standard format with the team.

### 5/5 — Great voice memo summarizer

*2025-03-28, version 1.3.17*

Works well

### 5/5 — Simple and powerful

*2025-03-28, version 1.3.15*

Very simple to use and so powerful. The Ai features are all useful and no gimmicks. 10/10

### 5/5 — Fast transcription at the press of a button

*2025-03-28, version 1.3.15*

Super easy to use. Captures words despite my accent. Can see when/where I say things - recommend.

### 5/5 — Great app!

*2025-03-28*

Highly functional recording app, super convenient for me to use daily when it comes to offloading my workload and speeding up my day to day!

### 5/5 — Easy to work

*2025-03-26, version 1.3.15*

This application made my work easier. I use it daily.

### 5/5 — So good for capturing impromptu meetings

*2025-03-25, version 1.3.15*

And having it transcribe and summarise my team meetings and standups keeps me across the details without being everywhere at once.

### 5/5 — Very useful

*2025-03-25, version 1.3.15*

The truth this app is amazing and useful.
