| 2022-11-23 |  | | Last update broke all my sound button widgets. App is utter garbage and just keeps getting worse and worse with each update. Uninstalling. EDIT: Last update didn't fix widgets. They still won't work with custom imported sounds stored on my phone. Uninstalling again. EDIT: Read what I wrote. The widgets aren't working with CUSTOM IMPORTED SOUNDS FROM MY PHONE. Therefore, they're STILL BROKEN. |
| 2022-04-22 |  | | It was the best app that I use when I was playing with some friends, and Now is tainted by too many ads and him premium that you cannot skip, it is forcing you to pay $50 a year to use the buttons. Who makes a free app that you have to pay 50 bucks to access to the sounds?! 50 dollars to have access to some sounds that I can download for free!! |
| 2021-10-28 |  | | Can't make custom sounds. I just want a custom sound to use locally, but I had to register for an account with my email. Fine. I register and go through the motions to make my button and it doesn't work. 1. When trying to play the clip back during edit, it just closes out of the editor and kicks me back to the home page. 2. I name the clip and add tags, but it just says "there was a problem." And kicks me back to the home page. No indication of file size or type restrictions. No other info. |
| 2020-09-28 |  | | I loved this app. Until I opened it today and found it costs $45... A YEAR... The app states that subscribing removes ads, which gave me the impression that I could remain using the app without subscribing, only with ads. I was wrong. The app is now useless unless you pay. I anticipate the app remaining useless for many. Instant buttons was instantly deleted. |
| 2020-09-07 |  | | This was a fantastic app. You where able to place as many color coded button widgets on your phone's desktop as you wanted and use any of your mp3 or wavs. Now they want $45 a year for what? Access to crappy quality sounds that the community uploaded? 12 other apps will pop up that will take it's place. I'd pay up to $5 for an app, nobody wants a subscription for an app unless it provides something like cloud space, or content access, or game levels. |
| 2020-08-27 |  | | I used to use this app all the time. Amazing soundboard app. Downloaded it today since it had been a while only to find a screen saying there's a $45/year paywall. I'm not paying as much money as it costs to buy a Switch game for a soundboard app. If you have $45 to spend, buy Xenoblade. You buy it once for life compared to once a year for this. Don't support this kind of greed for any mobile app ever, this is insane when there's extremely similar apps for free. |
| 2020-08-18 |  | | On a recent update, you added a 3-day trial, but no option to skip it. The app is currently unusable... I would love to give money for the use, but l am out of work right now, so cannot afford to spend money on anything fun. Please add a not now function... Otherwise, l am going to have to uninstall, and find another soundboard to amuse myself with. |
| 2020-08-16 |  | | How the mighty fall. I'm very brand loyal, and have been using this app since I picked up a smartphone probably ten years ago. This is not the way to monetize your app. I would have paid 5 or 10 bucks for all the usefulness and memories I've had for it. A small price to pay for it's years of service. But now I stand with the others in our huge screw you. You've chosen the worst monitization method at an egregious price. Maybe 2 bucks a year bro. But screw this. Connection cut. Never coming back. |
| 2020-06-25 |  | | This soundboard was amazing, they had an ad supported free version with the potential to upgrade to premium. Now this app is horrible, they now wall you from even using the app without paying the ABSURDLY over priced $45 a year subscription. This should not even be called a free app as you have NO functionality without paying the subscription. I am sad I used to love this app. |
| 2020-06-21 |  | | Back when i first found this app, it was beautiful and fun to use. However now if you happen to change phones and have to reinstall it, you will be forced to pay for "premium". This is an atrocity. If you are going to have a mandatory charge to use an apps " premium" features....then at least have a free basic version.. |
