### 2/5 — La cupidité d’un développeur

*2020-04-13*

J’ai acheté cette application il y’a quelques années, en mode achat unique sans le système d’abonnement “c’est ce qui a motivé  mon achat”

En terme fonctionnalités, je trouve l’application intéressante.

Maintenant, le développeur a décidé d’une manière unilatérale, sans informer personne, d’appliquer un abonnement annuel à un produit déjà acheté.

Je trouve l’approche du développeur gauche, déplacée et irrespectueuse.

Si c’est pour payer 43 euros / an. Y’a pleines d’applications meilleures en terme de fonctionnalités et qui coûtent beaucoup moins cher.

### 5/5 — 아주 좋아요~ 최고의 어플

*2018-12-10*

이 어플 하나 설치하고나서 일상 생활 관련 다른 어플 3개 지웠네요~ 아주 유용하고 좋네요~

### 5/5 — very good

### 2/5 — 急に、他デバイスと同期をしなくなった

*2018-03-13*

再設定してもダメ
今までは、調子よく使えてました。

### 5/5 — Super easy to add and edit. Love it!!

Super easy to add and edit. Love it!!

### 5/5 — Easy to use, flexible, helpful

*2018-02-17*

Overall I really like this tracker, after using it for a few days. I’m finding it very helpful and easy to customize to do whatever you want to track or do with it. 

I wish I had realized that all of the different versions of this tracking app are actually the same, except for the name the and color of the icon, before I choose this one. But I don’t want to start over, so I guess I’ll live with mustard yellow. :)

I also wish it had some basic text formatting tools for the daily journal and notes templates. When I’m writing I like to have choices. But I realize this is not intended to be a content creation tool, it’s a tracker, so text formatting isn’t really a feature to expect. 

As a tracking tool for all kinds of things, and keeping to-do lists, it’s excellent. I love the summary reports and the built in math, and selection of templates to start from. I will probably end up tracking far more than what I’d originally planned to use this for.

### 5/5 — So useful

*2018-01-01, version 11.0.6*

Really Amazing. I want to thank all the people working so hard on this app. So useful really no app can replace this app

### 5/5 — Lumen Trails

*2017-09-03, version 10.3.7*

Love this app, all colors.

### 5/5 — Great

*2017-05-19*

Used it for years now

### 4/5 — My most-used app. Tracks and organizes almost everything.

*2017-04-11*

It's been on my home row for several months. 

It's already very good, and the developer continues to upgrade the app.

This is important, particularly given that the developer is now also working on newer, subscription-based apps. The fact that Lumen Spark hasn't 'orphaned' this app shows that you can trust them not to abandon you to gradual obsolescence with any of their apps, now or in the future.

I'd give it five stars if it could integrate with Apple Health. 

Lumen Trails is the best app I've seen for tracking health data and graphing correlations between things like exercise and blood pressure. Unfortunately, this currently necessitates manual re-entry of a lot of data from automatic health-tracking programs like Runtastic. 

I hope to see that problem fixed, and will revise my review when it is.

### 1/5 — No templates

*2021-03-11*

Had it for years when it was offered free of charge never figured it out

### 1/5 — No instructions

*2019-09-14*

Terrible app. No instructions. Don’t waste your money.

### 1/5 — 自动扣费就是坑人的，黑软件

*2019-03-26*

自动扣费就是坑人的，黑软件

### 1/5 — Arnaque !!!!

*2018-10-28*

Une grosse arnaque, le pire est que je suis dans l’incapacité de me désabonner, je ne parle pas du tout l’anglais et rien n’es traduit alors qu’il est mentionné le contraire. Aidez moi à sortir de ce piège onéreux.

### 1/5 — 31 euro all’anno!👎👎👎👎👎

*2018-10-04, version 11.0.21*

NON SCARICATELA, se non vi abbonate non parte nemmeno! e poi 31 Euro all’anno???? 😱  c’è di meglio e gratis!

### 1/5 — You Must Subscribe to use this App

*2018-09-17, version 11.0.20*

Yes, you get one month free but then get charged $29.99 per year.  Can’t even try it with out signing up.

### 1/5 — Worthless for calorie tracking

*2018-07-11*

Unlike others there is no food database.  So every entry of calories is manual, ie you enter 26 calories, not start with 2 tablespoons of yoghurt non-fat and that enters calories.  Also difficult to figure out
how to kill auto renew.

### 1/5 — One month trial only.

*2018-04-10*

Your wasting my time! Just charge for the download. (One month free trial, then $14.49 per year)

### 1/5 — Basic

*2017-06-22*

Very basic functionality-not worth paying for

**Developer response:** Thanks for the note. What specific feature are you looking for? We are here to help. You can email us at support@lumenspark.com.

### 1/5 — Impossible de se désabonner !!!!

*2017-06-11*

No way to cancel !!!!

**Developer response:** You can turn off auto-renew at any time in App Store subscription settings. You'll find the link in the email that you received from Apple, or on our website at http://lumentrails.com/terms.

### 5/5 — Love this app!

*2019-10-15, version 11.0.30*

I have used this app for several years now and really like it. It syncs well between my iphone and ipad.

10/15/2019 This app still works great! For the past several weeks, the app has asked me to integrate with a different app and I am very afraid to do so. Once I temporarily deleted the green lumen trails app off my phone and when I came back on I could never get back into it without paying a yearly or monthly fee. I got this app when it was a straight $19.99, no yearly fee. The developers kept tellng me that since I already had it, I should be able to access my previously stored information. I was never able to get into because it always said I needed to pay. It was so fruststrating!! 

SO, I am terrifed to change apps. That I will expected to begin paying a monthly fee and will also lose all of my considerable data that I have stored on the app. Even if I’m reassured that that will not be so, it will be hard for me to believe it since that was what I was told about the other app and it turned out not to be true.

### 5/5 — Great for health & fitness

*2019-10-09*

This is one of the few apps I use every day.

### 5/5 — Lumen Trails

*2019-07-10*

Sehr nützliche App,könnte aber eine bessere Bedienungsanleitung gebrauchen

### 5/5 — Great App

*2019-06-15*

This is best app Ever 

Everyone needs this app

### 5/5 — Adore this app!

*2019-03-09*

I like this app a lot for tracking all my fitness goals. I also use the journaling portion. Can also set reminders in the app, to drink water or exercise or whatever. I keep tracking pics within the journal part. And the calendar with weighing days is so useful. I’d rather see my weight on the calendar

### 5/5 — Super easy to use

*2019-01-25*

Such a great app to use to track exercise, weight and calories!

### 5/5 — Helps me stay on task!

*2019-01-11*

I started an exercise and healthy eating plan in January and got back to using this app again. I use the daily journal and love that I was able to customize a template to record all the things that are important to me (bedtime/wake-time/sleep quality, nutrition, diet splurges, and so on). I also customized a body weight tracker to keep track of weight and inches lost and an activity tracker to record my exercise and other activity. It helps me be accountable and has been a big part of my health and wellness success! I also love that I can go back in time and see what worked for me in the past and how far I e come. Highly recommend!

### 5/5 — Vous n’allez rien oublier avec cette appli

*2018-12-28*

Très bonne appli pour avoir toutes les listes sous la main

### 5/5 — Use it to keep track of my budget

*2018-12-13*

I dont like all the features of normal budget apps. I make a category for each part of my budget (bills/food/entertainment/etc). When I get paid I add to it, when I spend I subtract. Simple and easy!

### 5/5 — Please keep all of your apps!!!

*2018-12-12*

Please keep all of your apps!!!
