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
Classic Bait and switch — Company can’t be trusted. Just buy a camera or user another app. you’ll end up paying the same amount for some software. 👎
Bait and switch — I made the lifetime purchase, which was not cheap, then this scammer of a company just made an entirely new app to force the subscription model for any further updates while sunsetting the previous ’version’. This is a…
Bait and Switch — This app will no longer receive any upgrades as Filmic has switched to a new Pay to Play app and business model.
Paywall blocks the basics
Scam — They took features away that were in their app for years that people paid for and the. put them behind a paywall. Avoid this app.
From a bought app to a subscription — Got this app a long time ago. Now have to pay a monthly to use? What am I missing?
Switched to subscription model. — Another one bites the dust. I went to use the app today and all of a sudden the features I have been using since I bought the app are behind a subscription paywall. No thanks.
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.
