My 1 star review has been there for well over a year. The app is utterly unusable.

Lack of basic sort and filter features its own website even uses.

Man, those poor guys must be so fucking busy putting out brushfire after brushfire. lol Bet it'd be a terribly inconvenient time to pester them about anything...

Making my 1 star review count!

If anyone here plans to leave one too, make sure to check on it every now and then. In situations like this some app devs will complain to Google and Apple about "brigading" and they'll remove pretty much every low star rating made on certain dates, so you'll have to make your review again.

Oh good idea..Now I finially have a reason to post a review on the play store

Edit: review bomb complete

Thanks for reminding me to rate the app! Wish there was a 0 star button.

1-star review on Google Play - done. Looking at the recent reviews, they all seem to be 1 or 2 stars, yet it somehow has a 4.1 rating (for my region/device) on the Play Store...

Went to leave a 1 star review after seeing this post only to find out that I already left one back in 2018.
I have no idea I have lurk on reddit for so long, but it will come to an end after RIF dies.
