### 1/5 — App Doesn’t Work Anymore

*2022-02-24, version 3.0.6*

This was a really great tool that I used during my last music release. It wasn’t always perfect but at the time it actually worked. Now when I try to login through Facebook it says “App Not Setup” despite still paying monthly. Would love it if someone in their customer service could help with this but every avenue I’ve tried contacting someone they’ve largely been inaccessible. Bummer.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2022-02-12, version 3.0.6*

This app hasn’t allowed logins for months now and “customer support” basically said oh well it’s not working… for a paid service.  It used to be amazing but not so much anymore

### 1/5 — Used to be great

*2022-01-28, version 3.0.6*

I started using this app in 2020 and it was great. Now it no longer works. I keep getting an error when I try to connect it to my Facebook/insta account that says this app is in developer mode.

Would love if support could reach out to me and help. For now, the app is unusable.

### 1/5 — Fricking App

*2022-01-03, version 3.0.6*

I am trying to log in through Facebook as per app request and keep saying App Not Setup: This app is still in development mode, and you don't have access to it. Switch to a registered test user or ask an app admin for permissions.

### 1/5 — Not working at all

*2021-12-17, version 3.0.6*

It keeps saying I need a Facebook login so, when I tried to login it says it’s in develop mode. I paid 1 year subscription and I am not able to access or use the app at all!!! I want back my refund!!!

### 1/5 — App does not work anymore

*2021-12-12, version 3.0.6*

App ist nicht eingerichtet: Diese App ist noch in der Entwicklung, und du hast keinen Zugriff. Bitte wechsle zu einem bereits registrierten Testnutzer oder frage den App-Administrator, ob du Zugriff erhältst.
