I have a Galaxy S2. I had the lite version and loved it, no problems. So I decided to get the full version, and every time I get a text message my entire screen freezes. I can't unlock my phone, I can't even hit the restart button, I have to do a force shut off every time.

by Y####:

This used to be an amazing app, with truly fine gained controls. Unfortunately, it doesn't appear to have been updated in months, which has caused it's features to be less relevant. Without support for newer apps such as Hangouts, I have to bid this a sad farewell.

Doesn't seem to work properly on my new RAZR. The option to turn off other ringers doesn't. The tap to silence function doesn't work. Keep up to date if you're gonna charge people. Edit-stopped playing notifications. Seriously update this.

A70%
by A####:

This app stopped working, the VIP Contacts no longer ring when on silence. The developer will not reply to any questions. I downloaded FoxyRing and it's working great, plus it's free!

Installed it and didn't work. Within 5 minutes I found out that it hasn't been supported since august. Refund option was gone before 10 minutes. Do not waste your money.

I used to love it. Now I'm just irritated. It's now totally worthless - wasted money.

A70%
by A####:

WhoIsIt solved the only problem I found after switching from my BB to Android. But it turns out to be even better than the way BB handled ringtones and notifications.

Bugged all over the place. Sorry I bought it. Will up rating if the app starts to do the things that it is supposed to do...

P70%
by P####:

Used to be awesome but the developer seems to have become lazy. Anyone have a suggestion for a replacement app? This isn't reliable anymore.

X70%

I had beta and loved it. Paid to upgrade to this and it flat out does not work!

Y70%
by Y####:

I have to uninstall this due to it locking up my screen from any touch control. Please fix!

Y70%
by Y####:

Live the ui, but it froze my lock screen if I had a message alert and I couldn't unlock my S4. Would love to reinstall it if I could figure a workaround

How do I get my money back?

T70%
by T####:

After last update, my phone doesn't play sms notifications at all. This is true whether I am using WhoIsIt or trying to just set a default tone even after the app was installed... Now all I have is vibrate for SMS. Looks like I will have to do a full factory restore to fix. Verizon HTC Incredible w/ Froyo.

Q70%
by Q####:

Was a definite 5* until the Gmail sender announcement stopped working. It's because of a change in the official Gmail app, but no news from dev on fix

T70%
by T####:

Zero value unless it is able to announce Gmail sender. Changes to gmail is not good enough to explain that it does not work.

T70%

Disappointed with new update. This app is worthless now.

T70%

I downloaded this app a shortly after I got my HTC Vivid and a loved it. About a month or so ago it just quit working. I have uninstalled and reinstalled the app twice, and it will work for a day or so, and then just stop working. No updates have been made for quite sometime and I am now looking for another app that has the same functionality that will actually work and is supported by the developer!

Have been unable to download &/ or install due to a package signing error. Sent 2 e-mails to developer with no response or resolution.

The app works wonderful. Unfortunately my phone got a system update and it no longer works. Please update so I can use it again.

T70%
by T####:

This app used to be amazing. It was the best profile app for Android. Then the creator got lazy and just stopped supporting it. I have emailed him repeatedly and after finally getting a reply, he said he was planning an update. That was several months ago....

S70%
by S####:

I have been using this app for years (2010 maybe, 2011 for sure). Many different brands of phones at various levels of quality with multiple carriers. It is the single most genius app on the market. Most of it's capabilities should really be standard on phones by now, but no. I wish and wish with all my might that the developer would update it a bit. Over time it's a bit wonky on newer systems. Regardless, I love this app. There is not one out there that can compete yet!

K70%

Just purchased and it doesn't work at all...I had the free version and it worked better but one particular contact ringtone doesn't work at all...

M70%

Developer no longer supports app, no ICS support.

Q70%
by Q####:

This used to work really well. Now it stops working out force closes all the time, put out back to the way it used to be.

H70%
by H####:

Great app for sound profiles for Blackberry users. The developer is awesome! Responded to issues & fixed them right away. Worth every penny!

T70%
by T####:

Needs to support contact groups to assign ringer settings quicker.

T70%
by T####:

This app was a 5 until it stopped working and the developer disappeared. It was exactly what I was looking for--I was able to silence all texts/calls except VIP. This was necessary because my husband was very ill and I needed to keep my phone on for emergency calls but wanted to silence it to everyone else. Now all calls/texts come through and it's worthless. Does anyone know of a similar type app? I need this!

T70%
by T####:

I bought this so that unknown contacts would be a silent ring...guess it is not working. Looks like this software has not been updated in a while - since 2011. Please fix or refund my money??? What are you doing to fix this app, nothing? I want my money back, useless

Sucks used to be the best app... now it sucks eggs...

by Y####:

This developer has become the invisible man....... For those of you using late 2.3.6 GB on Samsung galaxy s 2 or if you are using a 4.0.3 ICS leak as I am you may experience a freeze on Touch Wiz. The workaround is uncheck the "tap to silence" tab it worked for me but was frustrating as hell until I found it. HEY DEVELOPER GIVE US AN UPDATE WE PAYED

C70%
by C####:

When I bought this app wary back when, it said it was or would soon be compatible with Ringleader, another of this developer's apps. Well, that's not the case. So now they suckered me into spending money on both apps, when you can only use one. Awesome job guys

W70%
by W####:

Initially worked great, but over time tones were changed by themselves. Restoring settings didn't work

Y70%
by Y####:

I recommended this app to everybody when I first got it. I liked being able to make the phone ring only when my boss or co-workers called when I was with a client, and to make it silence calls from those folks when I was out with friends. All so easy, with just the press of the volume button. I can't find another app that does this! Unfortunately, this app no longer does it, either. My phone updated its software and now the app doesn't work. In addition to not working, it freezes up my phone. Garbage. Don't buy this. Andy isn't supporting it and it no longer works. Back when he was supporting it, my review for this app was an enthusiastic 5 stars. It was really that great.

Y70%
by Y####:

Really disappointed the support is gone for this purchased app. Crashes my S3 . Only a reboot via battery pull will make the phone work again. Had to do 3 battery pulls just to get it uninstalled because texts coming in from configured contacts kept locking up the phone.

Y70%
by Y####:

EDIT: Broken. Used to be very good, now just plain doesn't work. Notifications fail to play, hasn't been updated in 6 months. ORIGINAL REVIEW, NOW DISREGARD: This should be built into Android, but this application makes notifications just as robust as on the Blackberry. Very impressive.

V70%
by V####:

Epic 4G Gingerbread Only had one small issue with WhoIsIt right from the beginning, months ago... BEFORE uninstalling Ringtone Picker today. Set to handle "Unknown Callers" with a different tone, but the normal Voice ringer overlaps the "Unknown". Wish I hadn't uninstalled Picker. Now I have numerous issues including, overlapping ringers and get this, when I get a VM, it double fires the VM tone and the SMS tone?!?! then the touchscreen LOCKS UP. Actually just the main part. I can pull down the notification tab but then it locks in place. Only solution is to remove the battery. REALLY annoying new problem is when any ringer fires with the earphones plugged in, the phone speaker IS STILL ACTIVE. All that said, except for the original annoyance, I've found this to be a good app overall. Very versatile. I'm only docking one star on these issues because it seems obvious my uninstalling the other one didn't sit well with WII. Fact remains though they did not play well enough together to part ways on good terms. Really hesitate to reinstall it, concerned it would cause more problems. Headed for a factory reset if I don't find a fix soon.
