I suggest to get the server inworld in order to access all features. Otherwise it’s not worth using. Make sure you own land or have permissions on your land if renting. Server costs $500L. ### 3/5 — Was very good *2020-11-13, version 1.0.9* Unfortunately has stopped working on those sim’s that have moved to Amazon cloud. ### 2/5 — Url *2020-06-15, version 1.0.8* Bonjour je viens d’installer L’application Impossible de mettre l url Ou t elle?? ### 1/5 — This hacked me *2020-04-08, version 1.0.8* Don’t download this. My account got hacked and LL doesn’t have customer support. After I recovered my account, i had 0 lindens when i had over 3000 before. Corrupt company, don’t trust them. Your account will probably get hacked. ### 1/5 — No funciona *2020-03-30, version 1.0.8* Un timo, no funciona, ni se conecta y si lo hace no se puede escribir. Un timo que permite Apple. ### 2/5 — Extremely confusing *2020-02-09, version 1.0.7* I had just purchased this app and I’m trying to purchase the server from the Second Life Store, but I don’t even know what the server is supposed to be, or what the name of the server even is. I have officially wasted my efforts and money even downloading this app if I can’t even purchase the sever at all without knowing what it is or how to purchase it. (And to me, I feel like this app is a total scam) ### 2/5 — Worked okay until... *2019-12-03, version 1.0.7* Sl notifier worked decently until one night i go on to update my url but the settings and everything at the bottom disappeared and there is no other way for me to update that. Please fix it. ### 1/5 — No IOS 13 Dark Mode Support *2019-10-27, version 1.0.7* As of Oct 27, 2019 there is no Dark Mode Support. ### 1/5 — Stopped working *2019-10-22, version 1.0.6* I’ve had this app for a few years and suddenly it stopped showing my friends online. It just stopped working. Garbage. ### 2/5 — Application *2019-09-19, version 1.0.6* Dommage moi je suis prenuim propriétaire si je peux dire d une maison linden mais ça ne fonctionne pas fais C..,, ### 1/5 — Be up front. *2019-08-31, version 1.0.6* If there are additional costs involved it should be disclosed up front before the initial sale. The app so far as I could get with it worked. But I do not want to pay to make what load for to work as it was expected to in the first place. ### 1/5 — Terrible !!! *2019-07-10, version 1.0.6* This doesn’t work!!! Don’t waste your time ### 1/5 — This is a scam *2019-07-04, version 1.0.6* You have to purchase a 500 Linden URL from second life marketplace and own your on land to be able to use the app which it states nowhere in this apps description, you can either send me my money back or I can open a case against you with the Better Business Bureau false advertisement at its finest. ### 1/5 — NO INSTRUCTIONS!!! *2019-06-08, version 1.0.6* The app requires the Server AP Address, but no one EVER tells you where to find it! Has Apple ever heard of Instructions??! ### 1/5 — Péssimo *2019-06-07, version 1.0.6* Não consigo fazer nada,o chat não abre,perdi meu dinheiro ### 1/5 — Sl store *2019-05-23, version 1.0.6* How to buy the optional server URL ? I Need the direct link for it in sl store. ### 1/5 — Sorry excuse for a app *2019-04-12, version 1.0.6* The app doesn’t work I shouldn’t have wasted my money and you shouldn’t either ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Broken *2025-07-16, version 1.0.15* This app was working great the first few years. I moved in Real Life and now the app won’t show friends online anymore but I do get the new URL in my email. My old RL house used Spectrum and never any issues. My new house is with AltaFiber and that’s seems to be when it stopped working to show friends online. No setting were changed except the internet/WiFi provider. Hey Creators—please suggest a fix. I’ve looked everywhere for help and there’s nothing found. ### 1/5 — The app is obsolete *2023-09-02, version 1.0.12* Back when I first downloaded over a decade ago you could chat on it and now you can’t. Just download speedlight instead. ### 1/5 — Do not buy *2023-04-05, version 1.0.11* Waste of money, does not work, cannot even log in. ### 1/5 — It needs work and updates if they’ll charge you to purchase *2022-06-09* App has no updates for time enough so IM doesn’t work, it does not always notifies you when friends are online or people on your land, you don’t get IM replies like back than. Does not auto refresh so you have to constantly refresh or reopen the app. Useless. There is a lot of activity going on and I get one notification sometimes rarely **Developer response:** Hello. Obviously, you didn't understand how the app works. You can email us and we'll be happy to walk you step by step on how to make the app working. ### 1/5 — Un engaño no se puede escribir *2022-01-06, version 1.0.11* No se puede escribir mensajes ### 1/5 — I have not received any URL *2021-03-29, version 1.0.10* Ive not received any URL when I open and try to log in on SL. Notifier. I only purchased it to send messages when I could not log in world. These people need to give detailed instructions on how to find a Server URL. Most of us are point and click folks. Apple.... can you communicate with these people ""? Cause otherwise this app is a SCAM! Caveat. The SL server will only work on land you purchased directly. From Linden lab. Server costs 500L. Ok folks pass this one by or consider that you’ve probably lost ur .99 cents ### 1/5 — Url *2021-02-20, version 1.0.10* Moi je comprend rien on me demande un url Sa marche pas mauvais choix ### 1/5 — Junk yearly review *2021-02-01, version 1.0.10* It was junk 3 years ago and is still a waste of money and don’t waste the Lindens on the stream just more good money for more junk. ### 1/5 — I Suggest You Not Waste Your Money *2020-08-05, version 1.0.9* This is the only review I’ve ever written for an App Store purchase. But this app is an exceptional waste of time and exceptionally worthless so...it felt appropriate. It’s useless unless you want to know the weather in the sim you own. I’ll save you some time if you’re looking for a forecast from this app: 100% chance of failure. ### 1/5 — 👎🏻 *2020-07-26* useless application ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Great For Checking Out Who’s Online *2026-02-05, version 1.0.15* I love this app have been using it for years now, I’m still confused on why it says that my avatar is on my land when I’m not online anymore, I can send a message to someone if they are on my land but, can’t seem to send individual messages to people, it’s kind of annoying if I want to send messages to individuals. Otherwise it’s a great app. Edit: I think the app needs to be updated, I haven’t been able to see who’s online in about two weeks now. It just keeps giving me the refresh symbol but nothing seems to work right. ### 5/5 — Great For Checking Out Who’s Online *2025-09-26* I love this app have been using it for years now, I’m still confused on why it says that my avatar is on my land when I’m not online anymore, I can send a message to someone if they are on my land but, can’t seem to send individual messages to people, it’s kind of annoying if I want to send messages to individuals. Otherwise it’s a great app. ### 5/5 — Amazing product 🏆 *2019-08-04, version 1.0.6* I am very satisfied🥇with my purchase of this item it was easy to setup an when I e-mail the owner he was very helpful an respectful thank you for providing us with product 5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ ### 5/5 — It’s not misleading, please read *2019-01-25, version 1.0.6* This app is not for chatting, it’s a “notifier” as the name implies. It does this perfectly without buying the 500L item from Marketplace. Yes it asks you for a URL, but that’s only if you choose to use the “optional” add-on from Marketplace. This app tells you who is online, and THAT’S ALL IT DOES. The optional 500L add-on allows you to speak in LOCAL chat to a person NEXT to you on your land, not in IM. You should own your land for the add on to work. If you want to chat with friends, get a cheap Android and download and use Lumiya, using your iPhone hot spot. Again, this app is NOT for chatting or IMing. ### 5/5 — Sl notifier *2018-10-18, version 1.0.6* Great app for iPhone for sending messages to friends and seeing who’s online and you can get server url in world set up was easy 5 stars ### 5/5 — Server *2018-07-10, version 1.0.6* I’m having problems logging in. Can someone possibly help me figure this out. Tells me I need to put a URL in thought I had it but still not working everything looks and seems great. CNt wait to get in the game. ### 5/5 — Works great *2018-05-31, version 1.0.6* Works the way it should work and has nothing to do with stalking! ### 5/5 — Works great for me *2017-09-25, version 1.0.4* It's very handy little app. I don't have to keep logging in to see who is on. I also like the handy land feature. It's a box placed in my house and it lets me know who's been on my land, even which neighbors logged in. Not bad for the price. I'm happy with my purchase and would recommend. ### 5/5 — Help *2017-03-17, version 1.0.4* What is the unworld app called that cost 500L$ so I may know who is on my land and respond to ppl via text when I'm not online ### 5/5 — They fixed it! Good service! *2017-02-03* For several weeks, it stopped working & I left a negative review of it as a worthless app. Update 2/3/17 - they fixed it! Back to 5 stars. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
