- [R3] Browser & Offline File Storage Run away ⚠️: Awful 🤮 the app will not let you download videos! The file shows up as a large html file but not as a simple direct link from the saved URL !
- [R4] Browser & Offline File Storage Cannot download videos from website: Cannot auto detect and download videos from html, only downloaded html not mp4 files. Has free trial period simply waste of time.
- [R10] Browser & Offline File Storage This app is literally the worst: It’s just a bad cash grab that doesn’t do what it’s even supposed to idk who or why it was allowed on the Apple Store but I hope everyone who had a hand in making it and in bringing it onto the Apple Store gets fired from their job and starves to death I literally have 0 respect for the owner and developer team behind this app and think whoever let this get on tho
- [R62] Offline Great offline app love it: Yeah baby gorgeous
- [R8] Browser & Offline File Storage Very difficult to use: Very difficult to use
- [R12] Browser & Offline File Storage Garbage: Just another app that requires you to pay. Every 10 second a screen pops up asking to buy premium. Really…. Every ten second? It’s nearly impossible to use the app.
- [R16] Browser & Offline File Storage Horrible: App will keep prompting you to purchase the full version of the app, like i don’t know how to use the app because as im navigating it, it keeps interrupting to get me to buy the full version. i know we are all accustomed to such ads with how capitalism is but i have a screen recording of it popping up on its own 4 times in a 31 second clip…. like have some sort of shame
- [R65] Offline This Application is very simple: I swear
- [R41] Browser & Offline File Storage Doesn’t work at all: When I copy a file into the “+” prompt, under the downloads tab, it does nothing. When I click on the files tab, it shows computer code.
- [R45] Browser & Offline File Storage Doesn’t work.: Won’t play video
- [R76] Offline Stopped downloading: This was was working really great until I was not able to download anything. I also subscribed for a year and now i am paying for nothing. Really disappointed. I even tried deleting the app and reinstalling but to no avail.
- [R115] Offline Can’t download: Downloading stopped. I was paying monthly for the ad free version… but it just stopped working. Not good.
- [R1] Browser & Offline File Storage Skip this one: This app would be great if I wasn’t bombarded with ads to upgrade to their full version every 10 seconds. Makes the app unusable.
- [R6] Browser & Offline File Storage Ads every 5 seconds: I don’t know if I want to pay for the full version since I can’t do anything with the free version without being spammed constantly.
- [R100] Offline No longer usable: I really liked this app and was paying by the month but as of February 9th I have not been able to download any videos of any kind. I have sent emails asking for help and have not received any answers. I’m not sure what to do! Any advice before I delete it and end my subscription?
- [R118] Offline The updates killed it: Why don’t download me work anymore
