This app worked well for me however, I'm giving it 4 stars because it was free when I downloaded it. To my surprise, the last time I tried to use it, they wanted to charge me a subscription fee. Sorry, but that's a bait & switch as far as I'm concerned. It was free for several years, now all of a sudden they want me to pay for it? Nope. I won't. At least should stay free for the people who have had the app for years. I will be uninstalling.

Trying your app now. I just have 1 problem with a reply to a comment made by a user. You said that all apps do free trials the way you do. Charge the user automatically after the free trial is up. All the apps I have installed on my device doesn't do it that way and I have a lot. After the trial is up, then it goes back to the free version unless you opt to keep the premium. Yours charges automatically, I do not agree with doing it your way and will be uninstalling. This is a trick to get money!
