I was very happy with the original app I used it and found it extremely useful This new version keeps crashing and will not allow me to email or text message the data PS Although I do like the new displays New version keeps crashing
What were they thinking Ive lost what I had before and cant even use basic functions now You at least should warn us youre going disable the app when we upgrade it I feel ripped off Terrible update
Like other reviewers I agree that I feel taken advantage of I previously purchased this app and enjoyed using it for years Since this upgrade I have lost all my favorite loans and access to functions I previously used since I purchased the app Time to find another similiar app Goodbye Loan Shark This upgrade charges you to return functionality already purchased
I PURCHASED this app a while ago an found it quite useful I had several loan scenarios stored to model both home and auto loans I went in to the app to do some whatif analysis and found that after the upgrade I have to PAY FOR the functionality I already Purchased Oh hell no The developer should have released a separate version of the app if this is what they were going for Leave us paying customers alone on an older version and let us choose to upgrade to the other version if we feel the features are worth it Very unlikely I will ever do business with this developer again and will be sure to spread the word of this unscrupulous tactic Upgrade is a rip off
Do not upgrade After upgrading I lost functionality and now being asked to pay again to obtain functionality I feel cheated Do not accept upgrade
I bought the app years ago Now after the last upgrade they took away features want you to pay again to get the functionality back They screwed us
Love the app but am frustrated that after updating the app I lost features that had previously been paid for Not cool Will still use the app but will no longer recommend this product to anyone Good app Bad business practices
I want to thank all the folks who took the time to post the review of the new upgrade I am NOT upgrading my version Sorry you had to go through that Not Upgrading
I bought this app a long time ago and it worked great A while back they took away many of the features with the claim that I needed to pay for the upgraded version to get those features back This has to violate an App Store agreement Once I pay for an app I shouldnt have to buy surprise upgrades to keep the features and information I have already paid for Rip off
No support for nonus currencies No support for shortpayday loans app calculates loans as whole months not 3031 or 28 days I loved this app having paid 299 for the previous edition and WAITED for a long time for a usable update for iPhone 5 even contacted the developer Ive been bitten and asked to pay ANOTHER 3 bucks to get back the previous functionally I paid for avoid this shark
All data lost with upgrade Upgrade dead on arrival Please allow for a 0 star rating Bait and Switch
Great app well laid out and shows amortization tables Great app
I used to be able to amortize a loan before the update now you have to pay 299 to upgrade to amortize a loan I shouldnt have updated
It used to be easier to use and you could amortize Now its harder to use and they took away amortization and want 299 to amortize Thats a downgrade Software degraded
This was a nice app that I paid for just like many others and now they want us to pay for it again I guess the name of the app explains the situation You WILL NOT get another 3 from me It should be illegal to sell someone something you have already sold them Real rating 0 stars I agree with ALL 1 star Ratings
No honor in taking away what was already paid for Pay to upgrade Bull crap Bamboozled
Paid for it once New update and now asking to 299 more Not right Not fair Rip off
Finally an update on an app that was OLD However they have an inapp purchase for an upgrade So now the app becomes 5 Totally not worth it for 5 In app purchase
Its a highway robbery for the upgrade you have to pay features you already have Upgrade highway robbery
Got screwed Lost all of my data Now they want me to pay againi think Apple screwed me as well with the latest updateShouldnt have bought it and shouldnt have upgraded Me
I paid for this app forever ago and thought it was awesome Then out of the blue they removed a ton of features and want me to pay more to get them back I get that you need to support continuing development and maintenance but its crippled tithe point of uselessness Removed features
The new update lost all my data and then they want more money to upgrade the app the way it was originally Dont but this
This app was my go to for helping customers figure out different scenariosnow its a totally useless Wow what a shame
Unable to use the app I paid for until I upgrade Chances are there will be another required upgrade This should be against apple tos Rip off
I loved this program for years Upgraded and now had to pay for something I already had This is disgraceful Its like going buy a GoPro camera using it and loving it Doing a new firmware upgrade after a few years and then you cant shoot video anymore unless you pay again to use it that feature Really Use to be 5 stars
Save your money this app is broke 299 upgrade fee and features dont even work No loner works
So because of an update I now have to pay again for functionality I paid for when I originally bought the app Time to delete this scam Ripoff
Ive had this app for several years The latest update took away the ability to add extra payments and displaying amortization reports well unless you pay more for it I paid for this already why would I pay again for the same functionality Dont upgrade
This application has good functionality It complements the beauty of iOS very nicely as well The animations are smooth and delightful Its simple yet rather powerful in capability Exact payoff dates are provided there are useful amortization charts principle and interest percentages are display in simple graphs etc The app crashes occasionally and if that were fixed it would be a five star app Great functionality delivered delightfully
I paid 499 for this app in 2009 and now all the paying customers have to buy an inapp purchase to restore functionality Total ripoff Do not support this company Do not upgrade or buy
I paid for this app a few years ago and with the latest update they want me to pay again for features I have already paid for and were using This developer is a rip off Please dont give companies like any business DONT BUY Please read
Good software cost money to build and maintain Stop the whining Worth the price
Wont give you information on calculated loan without upgrade If I could give it no stars I would Not worth it free
Please update the icon for the retina display I want this on my homescreen but its blurry Make it match the one I see when I browse the app store Its clear there Thanks Please update icon
If youre an existing user and thought youd like the new interface dont update Having to pay 2x for software is obnoxious Please allow the update but restore purchase for full function Nickel Dime
I paid for this app and now they want me to pay for it again to keep using the basic features I understand paying for actual upgrades and service but all I want is to keep using what I already paid for What an underhanded cash grab Deleting this app Rip off
From the developer iOS 7 required a complete rewrite and redesign of the app Many small developers such as myself were faced with a tough decision about pricing and like many developers I decided that I could not continue development of Loan Shark without some sort of upgrade pricing I agree that it was implemented poorly I hope youll understand that What he is referring is the fact features in the old version have been taken out and in older to get them back you have to pay for the upgrade Rediculous Do not upgrade You will lose current features
Gotta admit Used to love the app But taking away functionality I paid for once to force me to upgrade to get it back is a jerk move Crashes often now Wont hold scenarios Sorry Mr Trometer Youve gotten your last out of me Jerkmove
Man what happened to this app Used to be my goto app Its broken now Ads and upgrade messages Amortization doesnt work any longer crashes app What happened
I bought this app a while ago and it was awesome Now after an update it wants me to pay again for a Premium Upgrade just to keep the same features that I already paid for That is crazy greedy and dishonest I will no longer recommend this app and I will be looking for a different app I cant believe that this type of thievery doesnt go against Apples policy Oh well more money for Apple that way also I guess Bait and Switch
First no free and was forced to buy Bought it and it will not calculate or amortize It just goes back to the app icon This is the worst Crap and should be removed by Apple from list of available apps I wrote the company and requested my back Do they have integrity or will their scam continue Im not hopeful This is a ripoff Do not buy and warn everyone else Does NOT work do NOT buy
Great app Many choices and easy to use Way to go
The app design is great Its very functional Here is why Im giving it a 2 star rating I purchased their app a long time ago and paid for the upgrade The company released an update and forced me to repurchase the same upgrade as the previous version I would have released a Loan Shark 2 so customers know its a different product with a new In App Purchase and fixed the bugs in 1x to make it run in iOS 78 Secondly this app crashes a lot on my iPhone 6 Plus with iOS 81 Thirdly they need to update UI to take advantage of the larger display Fourth allow iCloud syncing so all my loans are on all my devices Not so great company
I have used this app for years and it has been a critical financial tool for running numbers and projections They recently changed it and it is useless It crashes and will not run the numbers if you change one thing in the projections for example if you want to change the amoritization charts by running it for 144 months instead if 120 months it wont perform the calculation This was one of my favorite apps and is now useless This App is destroyed
I already paid for this I dont need the premium features Give me back what I paid for and stop the inapp annoyware prompts I should not get reduced functionality inapp prompts or ads in my PAID software Give me back what I paid for
I had a previous paid version after the update all my paid version features are all gone I think I have a right to keep my previous paid version Give my old paid version back No way I will paid this new version I suggest a new user do not get this software app you are going to ended up like me What a ripped off
I bought this years ago and it was quite useful Used it frequently A recent update took away functionality from the app and now wants me to upgrade to get it back The developer can go fk themselves Dont buy this Used to be a good app
It used to be a great app easy to use and nice features Ive been using it for a long time and it was nice Now you cant do anything unless you pay 299 MORE Total rip off I which I had known before upgrading to the new version PLEASE LET ME GO BACK TO THE PREVIOUS VERSION Please let me DOWNGRADE
I BOUGHT this app some time ago Now it is trying to sell me a 299 upgrade usually dont find this a problem although I think its annoying that any paid app it tries to continue selling to you Nevertheless this one cuts off functionality Now it wont do anything Complete rip off in my opinion Used to be a good app when I purchased it no longer AVOID
I PAID for this app Since the update Ive lost all my loans There is no restore feature option for previous purchasers No warning from their support No response when you contact them What is this a street corner vendor Third world country This is outrageous I will see to it that I post a 1 star review as often as I can or file a formal complaint WARNING do not buy
