What reviewers said
Verbatim excerpts from public store reviews, shown as corroborating user reports. They are not Appworthy audit evidence, and a quotation is not proof of the finding it sits under.
Misleading advertising
Bait and switch — I paid for this app, wanted to do another round now there’s a paywall get outta here
Lame bait and switch — I bought the app last year and it was great. I just tried to start again and can’t access anything without paying for the subscription. I had no problem paying for the initial app, that is more reimbursing the cost…
Bait and switch. — Paid for this app and now they changed it to a subscription service.
Paywall blocks the basics
Unusable — Ridiculous you need to pay to even use the simple checkboxes. i understand putting more customization behind a paywall, but worthless app unless you’re willing to pony up
Used to be one time charge — This app was a one time charge and now you have to pay monthly or for a year. It’s ridiculous that those of us who already paid for it now have to pay again. Cash grab at its finest.
Stay away. — I paid for the app. Worked great for years. Now the app is not functional without paying for a subscription. If the app was free and then it changed OK fine. You get what you pay for. But to be clear, I paid for an app that…

How a review signal works
A review signal is produced automatically from public app reviews by a classifier — never by a hands-on Appworthy test, and never by a human analyst. It exists so a real, not-yet-audited app can carry more than a blank “Not yet tested” listing, without ever being mistaken for an assessment.
A theme only appears above once at least 5 distinct reviews corroborate it — one angry review can never tag an app. These thresholds are published settings and may be tuned as coverage grows.
It carries no confirmed findings — reviews are one kind of evidence, and nothing here has been hands-on tested. The moment Appworthy publishes a full assessment of this app, it replaces this signal, permanently.
A human review replaces this review-derived signal with hands-on, recorded measurements.
Hands-on inspections are not yet open.
