If you don't buy a subscription, you can essentially do nothing...and if you accidently tap almost anywhere the subscription pop up appears. The subscription is also expensive. Was excited...but now disappointed. I advise the creators to make sure the free version has more accessible in it that would help draw people into purchasing a subscription (think huckleberry free vs. Paid.) And to find a different way to advertise things as member only than a giant pop up that takes up the whole screen.

Became paid without any notice Edit after response- my issue is not that it became paid, it's that there was no notice at all. I believe your content is actually worth paying for. I would have signed up during your black Friday sale. This feels very reminiscent of when snoo all of a sudden made their app paid for, for features that were the promised with the original app. I have downloaded BLW meals app and it is the same content without a paywall. Highly recommend!

Massively disappointed, I was using the app for free to test it out, thought I'd subscribe to unlock more features and the app just "stopped working" it doesn't load up and just closes itself. I have uninstalled and reinstalled it via the Play Store so I know it's the updated version but same issue. I cancelled my subscription within a few minutes. Should have stuck to the free version. But I can't even do that now.
