Review summary

The Globe Planet 3D app is widely criticized for misleading pricing and a heavy paywall. Reviewers report that most features require a paid subscription, with automatic charges and few options to cancel or obtain refunds. They also describe minimal, nonfunctional behavior beyond a spinning globe and note that the tutorial is misleading. Several users label the app a scam or rip-off due to claims of a free version followed by costly subscriptions. Privacy concerns are mentioned regarding location data requests. Overall, the app is viewed as unhelpful and overpriced.

Pros

Cons

Requires subscription to access most features; paywall blocks core functionality.
Charges occur with little or no chance of refund; cancellation options are hard to find.
Limited/no practical functionality beyond a spinning globe; touch navigation doesn't work as expected; tutorial is misleading.
Perceived as scam or false advertising because it markets as free then saddles users with expensive subscriptions.

2026-03-26	Kt*****	I always saw the adds and thought that it’s cool and then one day I saw that it was free so I got it. I’m the first thing it came up with was if I wanted a 3 day free trial in $39.99 a year. it is false advertising and a ripoff. I do not recommend. And they want your location.

2024-02-26	Ka*****	This app is not worth the subscription. It does not work very well at all. the worset part is they give you no way to cancel the subscription. Luckly, I can have my credit card company block the charges.

2023-03-09	No*****	You basically need a subscription to use everything else. If this app was popular and used daily, I would definitely understand why you would put a paywall for some features. But this app looks as if it’s not doing great in terms of downloads. You should consider taking down the paywall until this app becomes popular. Otherwise users will just download and delete. Not a good start.
