  • Family sharing went bonkers

    My sons wanted to use my subscription for their studies on their iPads and it’s just not working. The app developer promised to honor Family Sharing. But they don’t. Don’t say you were not warned.
  • Fraud - AVOID

    Blink is a fraud committed by a dishonest developer. Paid for one-time license that simply vanished.
  • Quite literally a scam

    In no uncertain terms I need the reader of this review to understand this company straight up scammed its users. We paid for a lifetime subscription, and now we can’t use the app unless we pay for a trial. DO NOT USE THIS APP. IF THEY DID IT ONCE THEY WILL DO IT AGAIN. DO NOT THROW YOUR MONEY AWAY AND SUPPORT DEVELOPERS WITH A SHRED OF INTEGRITY.
  • Can’t use without activating trial

    Unable to use the application without enabling the free trial, which turns on the billing after two weeks so if you forget to turn that off, then you’re stuck with a subscription. There seems to be a no cost for the older features, but can’t seem to activate that without doing the trial.
  • Scummy bait and switch

    I paid $20 for this. Well now I don’t have access as this now requires a subscription! Shame on you for not grandfathering your users who supported you! If you are thinking about this, avoid and install a-shell mini
  • Beware of this developer

    Paid money for the full version and these crooks took it and went to a subscription model without bothering to compensate in any way. Disgusting business practice.
  • Hard paywalls extremely annoying

    I’ve seen this app recommended various places but the hard paywall really put me off. Just going to keep using termius.
  • Best shell for pros

    Initially, I didn’t expect I can just import .ssh/config and it works out of the box. This is the killing feature driving me to switch from Termius. Then I discovered more useful features, like local vim editor and port forwarding. It runs flawlessly with Tailscale. Now I can ssh to my workstation from anywhere. A lot of features are hidden. Like the ssh config file is only mentioned in the docs slightly. I’d suggest the dev should make all the features as visible as possible.
  • To Developers

    I paid for the app awhile ago with the promise that I’ll have that app to use. That fact that I do not have access to my paid version of the app is a disgusting practice. If you need to have a subscription to continue development, that’s fine. But give me my app back that I paid for, leave us that version. Better yet, honor the payment and give the members who paid for the app lifetime updates and let the subscribers take on the cost. No sense in betraying your paying customers…
  • Don’t buy it for the passkeys feature

    Only reason I paid (again), I already had paid for the lifetime fee and now I paid to use a new feature that doesn’t even work. Tried getting a refund and I was denied.
