Ratings and reviews

I can only call this a scam. They advertised for one-month subscription, and i tried it. They ask for an autopay. So I did it thinking I can cancel it later. Later, I tried to cancel the auto-pay. It doesn't happen. I email them to cancel my autopay, they don't respond. So far I've paid them ₹400. Such a scam! Every month ₹199 is being stolen from me.

This app is absolutely terrible. The content quality is extremely poor and feels like pure clickbait with no real value. Most of the news is either shallow, repetitive, or poorly written. The app is slow, lags frequently, and sometimes crashes, making it frustrating to use. Notifications are annoying and mostly useless. There is no clear transparency about data usage or privacy controls, which makes it feel unsafe. Overall, this app is a complete waste of time and mobile data.

Honestly, one of the most frustrating apps I’ve used. They advertise a one-month subscription, so I signed up thinking I could try it out. The job listings are extremely limited and not even close to what I was looking for. To make it worse, when I tried to cancel the auto-pay, there was no proper option to do so. I’ve been stuck with repeated charges, and the support team doesn’t even bother to reply.
