The app is a fraud, Their service is offered as free and before i could realise they charged me different amount for 3 different months. on 2nd Sep 26 they charged me double the amount they charged previous 2 months and then again tried to charge me on 3rd sep, that is when my bank flagged it as a fraudulent transaction and blocked my card, and I realised the scam the app was running

BEWARE! SCAM ALERT! DO NOT SUBSCRIBE! WHY IS THIS APP EVEN ALLOWED HERE. SHOULD BE BANNED FOR SCAMMING AND RIPPING OFF MONEY OUT OF SUBSCRIBERS ACCOUNTS.

The app is alright, and I like the concept. I just did not use it enough for it to be worth the cost. Then canceling was very hard and I had to cancel multiple services not just one, so I paid for longer even though I tried to cancel. Felt a bit like a scam at that point to be honest. Support did not help at all.
