What we measured

Themes reported by reviewers
3 or more themes 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
80–89% 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.
Graded bands · predicate set 1.4 · how these are measured
What the analysis found
App-specific findings, grouped by what each one rests on. How they are graded lives on its own page.
One source only — shown, not confirmed 3
A single kind of evidence. We publish these because withholding them would be the bigger distortion, and we do not treat any of them as a finding we stand behind.
Reported by users: Aggressive ad load
Advertising volume or placement that interrupts normal use: ads between every action, unskippable or forced full-screen ads.
What we saw: Aggressive ad load: raised by 16 distinct reviewers (3.2% of 501 reviews scanned)
Reported by users: Price keeps rising
The price of the paid tier has been raised on existing users.
What we saw: Price keeps rising: raised by 16 distinct reviewers (3.2% of 501 reviews scanned)
Reported by users: Upgrade prompts use guilt-trip wording

What we saw: Constant upsell pressure: raised by 8 distinct reviewers (1.6% of 501 reviews scanned)
Highlighted reviews
Representative public review excerpts shown as user reports, not Appworthy audit evidence.
“Up-sells every time I open — Was excited about getting this app and integrating it into my life, but I’m going to have to delete it because every time I open the app, it shows a pop-up trying to get me to pay more $. I get that they gotta…”
“Every app creator wants a monthly ransom — I bought this app years ago and gave it good use. Now I need it again but I can't use it without lots of adds; now I find out they changed their model to a monthly payment. For a log timer????…”
