It was a waste of time.
i hate companies that use this scammy pricing model. I only listened to a few blinks, they were okay, but when my £79 *AUTO RENEWAL* was due I discovered I could claim my unused credits but wouldn't be able to listen to them beyond the renewal date? and this is the pro version? it's wrong and has to stop. then when I went to cancel my subscription, was offered an 80% discount as an incentive to stay.. so you were just going to rip me off for 80%? just be more ethical you terrible toads

This software is waste in android phones. it will take 3 minutes to open in android iPhone.. it's irritating.
