“Charged before free trial ended — don't bother with the free trial, they will charge your card before its even over. i actually thought it was a good app up until this point but i cant support shady business practices.”

Evidence and review signals
This is where the page changes from an app-store listing into an evidence report: findings, important reviews, pricing and a dated history.
What we measured
Each line is a measurement published as a measurement, never a verdict.
Each line is a measurement, published as a measurement. Where we have not looked, the line says so rather than reading as a zero.

Themes reported by reviewers
No theme reported
Counted from the reviews we have read for this app. "No theme reported" means no theme reached our reporting threshold — it is not a finding that nothing is wrong with this app, and we do not say it is.
Five-star share of ratings
65–79% five-star
Arithmetic on the stores' own published rating counts. It says nothing about why the ratings fall where they do.
In the package we scanned
No package has been scanned for this app, so nothing is published about what it ships. That is an absence of evidence about the app, not a finding about it.

Representative public review excerpts shown as user reports, not Appworthy audit evidence.
“Not a free trial — Response to the developer: I’m very well aware that it said a 3 day free trial, I’m not stupid I know how to cancel things. The problem is you IMMEDIATELY charged me when I clicked free trial. There wasn’t a 3 day…”
“Unexpected charge — I thought I was agreeing to a free trial and was charged for a $49.99 yearly subscription and now am unable to find a way to cancel it. I can’t imagine ever being okay with spending that amount on a blur app!”
