## Review summary

Reviews largely praise smooth performance and usefulness, with several calling the app nice and excellent. However, a dominant concern is intrusive advertising—bottom banners, pop-ups, and too many ads. Onboarding is often difficult and the app is not very user-friendly at start. A few users also complain about unsolicited changes or permission prompts. Overall, positives about quality and usefulness are overshadowed by ad-related annoyances.
