Recorder Plus : Voice Recorder

It makes it seem that every action you do has to be payed for. I mean I don’t mind having to pay for it but instead of separate payments why not just make a bundle deal. Or if not, give a description notification prior to my purchase. I wouldn’t want to buy something that I wouldn’t know what it could be. Plus if you could add a way for us to edit our recordings such as cutting out pieces within the recording would make this app 20x more useful with my projects.

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.

To exit the ‘Record’ app indeed proved to daunting at best. In exasperation I placed my iPhone aside to speak to someone about a tree on my property which was leaning on my neighbor’s second floor and upstairs porch. Thanks to Hurricane Florence the tree had to be removed. Understandably the phone was left aside for three or more hours as papers were signed and the tree cutters removed the tree. When I returned to my phone, not only was the battery at 12%, but also the ‘Record’ app was still “fetching” information from ‘Record'! Really? Perhaps the information fetched was not only from Record, it could have been from me! I actually like to participate in studies, however it is generally accepted that one should be notified when one is being studied. Had the battery indicated little usage, as it always does when the phone isn’t in use, I wouldn’t have reason to question why the app continued it’s installation when it had been denied. Thank you.

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.

Others have commented on baiting to d/l then learning the nasty way rhis a paid app if you really want it to work. Also buggy. Trying to send recording by email no send button found, nor way to close/delete rhe mail to get back to the recorder. U must force quit & relaunch for that. Shame because this developers iphone scanner app is excellent. And the price is there up front. Shame on this developer. I may still buy this if the email share bug is fixed. For what I want for now that would be $6 for unrestricted recording and quality mp3, not bad. If it does work as well as scanner pro.
