I paid $1.99 for a new ads a day later I still have ads nonstop this is 2 months later, ads still popping up ! every time I open the app

Wayne Cooler, 2025-01-25

I do appreciate what the dev is doing here. This app does exactly what it says for absolutely free. The ads are not invasive, and the app works very well. However, the reason for the 4 stars is the lack of option to choose what is read. The moment it is turned on, it immediately reads everything without a way to select what is read. You can change these via permissions per app, but if they add a feature for this in the "premium" tier (very affordable BTW), this app would be absolutely perfect.
