When I try getting support from the developer all I get is linked to a website that infers Doesn’t Exist and read the manual, and the manual that loads has nothing to do with this product. ### 1/5 — Total. Trap. DoNot install it *2017-09-29, version 1.4.4* Its a trap. Nothings works ### 5/5 — Yes!! *2017-06-02, version 1.4.4* So helpful!!

I would rate it 5 stars if it is flawless. ### 5/5 — Ear emailer *2017-05-25, version 1.4.4* Nice app to hear my emails ### 4/5 — Changing my review *2017-05-05, version 1.4.4* Initially gave it one star because I couldn't get it to work, however, all is well now. My main issue now is that I wish I did more than voice replies. Sometimes it wouldn't be the professional response in a business setting. ### 5/5 — I was looking for this!! *2017-03-22, version 1.4.4* I drive a lot and reading emails while driving is neither safe nor recommended!
