Absolute garbage. Literally have to pay to even get in the app. $60 a year is robbery.

App literally guilt trips you into feeling bad about your family getting older and losing memories. Then on the final page it’s a big eff you, letting you know you have to pay $10 a week or $60 a year to use the app. I don’t know how this is even allowed, feel bad for all those concerned people who will have signed up because of emotional blackmail. Such a scam.

Thanks for sharing this, truly. We built this app to help families avoid the regret of losing their stories as we know just how valuable they will be in the future. That being said, we heard you loud and clear. We took your feedback to heart and just released an update that reworked the onboarding to focus on the positive experience ahead, and made it much clearer that everyone gets a fully unlocked free trial to experience saving stories at zero cost. I'd love for you to give it another shot! Reach out to me directly at support@usewithyou.com — I would love to show you the changes.

Money grab, doesn’t work

Was excited for something like this, but turned out to be just a money grab

Doesn’t Work and no trial

App doesn’t work. Keeps glitching when I try and sign up. Finally got to the end and it makes you pay before you can even try anything… but the app says “free” on the App Store? Smh

Response from developer

Thanks for letting us know about this, we just released an update that completely fixes the freezing issue so it's all good to go now. Also to clarify: the app is free to download, and with that download we offer a fully unlocked 7-day free trial so you can experience everything at zero cost. We'd love for you to try it out again!

Frozen Screen

It doesn’t do anything passed the first screen. Waste.

Response from developer

Hey Shelly — we've just shipped an update to the App Store that fixes the freeze entirely. If you're open to trying the new version, update your app and you should be good to go. We really hope you give it another chance!

Worth the wait!

At first it was frustrating trying to figure out the best way to access my mom’s answers to my questions. But Kevin was very helpful explaining it and helping me troubleshoot to be sure I captured my mom’s voice. I’m so so grateful that I found this app!

Response from developer

Hi Nora! Thanks so much for sharing this. Capturing your mom's voice is exactly why I built this app — we know just how valuable these stories will be for your family. We've since published a big update that makes the recording process even smoother. I'm happy to hear from you personally that your mom loves the experience! Thanks for being part of the community!

No recording

I downloaded this app because I felt it was such a beautiful way to remember someone. I think the voice is the hardest to remember. However several attempts and it would not record and customer service/ Help was no help. Too bad

Response from developer

Hi AJ, you’re completely right, voice really is the hardest thing to remember and oftentimes the first to forget. I’m glad you see it as a beautiful way of remembering someone as well. We have since completely rebuilt our recording system in our latest update so it runs perfectly and smoothly. Please make sure to shoot a direct email to support@usewithyou.com as that's our help email. I'll personally ensure your account gets set up!

Wont work

I can’t even get into it. Stopped working at the “whose voice”. Tried 5 times. Finally gave up.

Response from developer

Hey LeeAnn, I'm sorry you had to go through that. The good news is we've pushed a brand new update that fixes it completely. Email me directly at support@usewithyou.com and I'd love to personally make sure it runs perfectly for you and make up for the frustration.

$34

I love my Dad. I thought this app would be a unique opportunity to have memories of my dad saved in a special place. Unfortunately, withyou decides to charge $34 a year for their “service”. I will simply ask my Dad these questions and place them in my voice memos on Apple.

What’s even worse is the app makes you share tons of information in regard to who you are recording and yourself. Right after, it asks you to pay up. Atrocious.

Response from developer

That first line says everything, and it's the whole reason this app exists. Voice memos is an option, and if it works for you, use it. What WithYou adds is 100+ deep life questions designed to surface stories people don't think to tell on their own, plus a magic link that lets your Dad record his answers via text message without ever downloading an app. All stored in one place for you. There's also a free trial so you can experience it firsthand so you can see the difference. If we can help even save just one family story, then it’s made this all worth it!
