Contact Recorder Plus Voice Recorder Support

by ThingsThatMakeYouGoHmmmmm

I purchase this app a long time ago and until today was happy with it. I would discretely turn it on when needed to memorialize specific events or conversations. I paid money for unlimited recordings and a couple of other features. Today, when I pressed to discretely record, a video ad started blasting out a song! What!?! My entire phone was is silent mode! I didn’t want to disturb anyone nor did I want to “announce” the fact that I had started a recoding. I did both. Why does an app that is designed to silently record things plays a video ad!?! A visual only ad would have been bad enough, since I already paid for numerous features on this app and ads were not a part of it when I paid, but a high volume video ad?!? What the heck are these programmers thinking?!? It totally disrupted the situation I was trying to record and I was not able to record the event. I will now be spending who knows how much time downloading all my saved recordings so that I can delete this app. The alternative is to pay even more money to delete the video ads, but I now have no confidence they won’t pull the same trick somewhere down the road.

The app description says “record seconds or hours” but makes NO mention of the fact that you have to pay to record over 2 minutes. It doesn’t tell you when you start recording that you’ll be stopped at 2 minutes. It also tells you that you can record in the background. So I recorded an important meeting today with this app. After the 90 minute meeting I find out that the app stopped at 2 minutes. It gave me NO notification. I had my notes app opened because that had my talking points. I lost over 80 minutes of that meeting because of this stupid app. I’ll be filing a complaint with the Apple team about this app as well. Highly deceiving app. Just tell people up front that you want $2, or charge like $5 for your app. This would have been a great app if the developers weren’t idiots about the way they implemented the pay features.

Furious at this app for losing my data. It saved 3 sessions fine but the 4th it showed an ad when I hit stop... with NO close "X". I clicked everywhere on screen for 10min trying to get to my file. Eventually found it via files browser and it was blank. Then I clicked to open one of the other 3 files and it launched the app and immediately permenantly deleted my 3 other recordings. They were not shown in iCloud recently deleted files.

Seeing as it ruined my session I give this app zero stars. Buyer beware until bugs are fixed.
