### 1/5 — Useless

*2024-03-05, version 3.2*

Useless app, hasn’t worked for years but they still accept your money.  Shameless!

### 1/5 — Why is this a thing anymore?

*2022-12-28, version 3.2*

Just download Discord and use it.

### 1/5 — BEWARE OF THEM STILL CHANGING YOU!

*2021-02-22, version 3.2*

This first part is new updated information. Below it are the other ones. 

I use to love this app for game play. With it started having problems and hardly get fixed and then it just stopped working. And i stopped my yearly payment to them. But i guess they decided that was not happening and charged me for another year. Had Apple and my credit card company both working with me to stop payment to this app. And to make sure my card company cancelled my card and issued me a new one. About a year later i got an email saying my payment failed and i was to log in and update my payment information. And I contacted Apple again. SO BEWARE OF THIS APP NOW! Make Sure Your Not Paying Them Still For Services Not Working for Several Years. BEWARE OF THIS APP!!! 2/22/2021 at 10:49am. 

This app was good a couple years ago. But now i need help with friends cant log into my vent. and i ask for help many times and never get an answer back. But they will surely take the payment every year on the date it’s due. Now im having problems stopping payment. BEWARE if you use this app..... 10/10/2019,3:46am.

What horrible developers to not keep there app up to date but take everyones money still like clock work. Think they should pay back every cent plus interest for doing this to what use to be loyal customers. 6/19/2020,3:06am.

### 1/5 — Does not work

*2020-11-11, version 3.2*

The app no longer connects to typefrag servers. Needs update. As well the app is very limited in settings and features.

### 1/5 — No longer working.

*2020-11-09, version 3.2*

As of November 2020 ventrilo updated their client software, and as such this program which has not been updated in 5 years is currently no longer working.

### 1/5 — Not worth it

*2020-11-08, version 3.2*

It worked great for a while but now I can’t get in on the app at all.  I use this a lot and have reached out to the developers to let them know and no single response at all.  Very frustrating to not be able to interact with my friends when I can’t be at home on my PC in ventrilo.  Very disappointed that there’s no response.

### 1/5 — doesnt work ipad v6 (2018)

*2020-08-01, version 3.2*

will not work on ipad ..please update this to work on ipad... it says device does not have a speaker, which is not true. All ipads have speakers.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2020-04-14, version 3.2*

I have an iPhone XR and every time I try to connect it doesn’t allow it to connect to the server

### 2/5 — Can’t enable mic access

*2019-09-21, version 3.2*

This app use to work. Now it requires mic access in IOS. However if you go to that section it doesn’t have the ability to enable to mic in the settings.

### 1/5 — If I could give zero stars I would

*2019-09-20, version 3.2*

The app will tell you to go to your privacy settings and enable microphone for the app however the app doesn’t show up on the list of apps.... don’t waste your time.
