### 5/5 — Honest legit app.  Good calls

*2025-11-15, version 7.0.2*

One of the only honest apps out there.  Works like it says it does.  Doesn’t just give you two and ask for a membership the rest. Has a nice timer feature to repeat calls in 45 sec intervals or whatever.   No frills interface but it’s free and it works enough for me to leave a good review which I never do for anything.

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2025-11-09, version 7.0.2*

I got my first every deer with this app, recommend 10/10

### 1/5 — Not working

*2023-12-02, version 1.0*

The calls don’t make noise. app is broken.

### 5/5 — Surprised me!

*2023-11-03, version 1.0*

So I was hunting, and a decent spike came in right behind me and started walking away, but with a breeding bellow he ran right back! If only I had time to grab my bow he would be a dead deer!

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work on IPhone

*2018-12-29, version 1.0*

I had this app on my Samsung and it worked totally fine but on the iPhone sound doesn’t even come out

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work if phone is in silent mode

*2018-12-25, version 1.0*

Well here is my issue.  I’m calling in this massive buck and then boom, some idiot calls my cell or sends me a text and my phone rings!!!  Bucks don’t answer nor like cell phone rings.  This app needs to be adjusted so that the calls work with the phone in silent mode.

### 1/5 — Nope

*2018-12-03, version 1.0*

No sound!

### 4/5 — It worked but then...

*2018-12-02, version 1.0*

I was sitting in the deer stand and I pressed the buck social grunt and three doe ran up to the stand looking for the noise so then I pressed the fawn in distressed call which made me almost crap my pants I was laughing so hard so they ran away *thats why it’s a four and not a five star

### 1/5 — Didn’t work at all

*2018-11-19, version 1.0*

Like others mine didn’t make any sound. Check volume made sure everything was on but still nothing

### 1/5 — No sound

*2018-11-17, version 1.0*
