Ratings and reviews

Ads are way too aggressive for such a silly functionality. I hadn't even start using the app and there were lots of ads popping up everywhere without a way to pause or quit until you watch everything. Unacceptable! I won't buy something I have no idea will work for me. I don't want to be forced to watch ads before even using the app. I ended up asking Claude Code to create an overlay app for me in 20 minutes.

I've downloaded it a few weeks ago. It was good back then. You were able to resize and higher or lower opacity on your image without going back to the app. You could also move the image up and down freely. Now this is locked behind a premium version. What remains is rather useless for me, not to mention that every time you click on anything you get slapped in the face with an ad. Cannot recommend anymore, unfortunately. It also occasionally blocks actions on areas the overlay covers, not good.

it's pretty good! I just wish that the overlay still worked when your phone is in landscape mode. the overlay will stop working completely when you're in landscape mode, which is my only gripe with it.
