4/5This is great
This is a great app, very easy to use, a couple problems though. First, you need to make a new name every time you create a file, which I guess, makes sense, but why not just use folders? Next, there is no C#! Why? It’s very popular. I luckily know other languages, I just feel that adding C# will make this even more popular. Other than those two problems I’ve noticed, this is a very good app.

2/5Great App
the app is great and works fine, does what I need for mobile but the only issue is when I import a folder then restart the app, then click on the workspace from the imported folder everything inside disappears and I have to import it every time I restart the app. Also, when I do the free premium plan it still pops up asking me to buy premium and I have no premium features.

1/5What happened?
The app went from free to now you have to pay for a subscription. What happened? The app would usually pop up a screen asking if you want to subscribe, if not, there’s an x out at the top corner. Now, you’re stuck on the screen without a way to x out… there’s already limited things you can do on the free and now it’s gone, with all my codes I can’t access.. why.. what happened?

1/5Not Free
Don’t download this app unless you have full intentions on paying for the premium. I say this because as soon as you open the app you get a pop up for the subscription. Now, if it were just a pop up there would be not problems, however, there is no way to exit this pop up other than subscribing. Was considering paying for an app like this to get better features, but the scammy nature of this app 100% crosses it off my list. I’ll go for something a bit more honest.

1/5Deceptive
I would love to give a review of the apps functions, however as soon as you open the app it pops up a page asking you to pay for the premium / pro version. It wouldn’t be bad if there was a way to exit that page and try the app to see if you want to pay, but there isn’t. You are trapped at either paying or not using the app. Given the obvious lack of integrity of the developer, I will be deleting the app, never having the opportunity to evaluate it.
