Volume Limit Control for Negative User Reviews
✓ ScamScam 100%.Version: 1.0.2
✓ Do not buyYou pay for premium and it doesn’t stay at the level that has been set,.Version: 1.0.2
✓ Still loud!!!!My son is 5 years old and on the spectrum I know apple failed parents on the volume control aspect. My husband found this app and I thought OMG!!!! It finally worked but guess what my son saw the app on his iPad and close it and the freaking iPad was loud!!! Unfortunately backfired to the developer you need to program this to were it can be closed and still control the volume and another the little microphone is a dead give away when the app is open.Version: 1.0.2
✓ Not worth itPaid for the pro version for my 4 year old who is autistic and non verbal because he would constantly turn the volume up to 100. Even though I have the setting to never adjust back I am constantly having to log in and turn the volume limit on again. Save your $5 and try a different app..Version: 1.0.2
✓ Work aroundI set up the app using a password to protect and set the maximum volume at 50%. Somehow my 18 year old autistic daughter manages to work around the security and sets the volume back to 100%. She does not have access to the password, so I am not sure how she does this. how can I fix this?.Version: 1.0.2
✓ Does not work!This worked for like one day and now doesn’t work at all. Waste of money.Version: 1.0.2
✓ Needs setting the controls each dayBe aware. This app needs to be enabled to control volume each day. When the developer has been asked to comment, no reply at all. I would have given this app one or no stars, but it essence it works, just the fact of enabling it each time is annoying..Version: 1.0.2
✓ Waste of money- avoidThis app does not work as advertised, save your money. Constantly needed to be reset and now I apparently don’t own the ‘pro’ version even though it’s on my purchase history. Digital garbage. A literal scam..Version: 1.0.2
✓ Waste of time and money.After trial of free version which just work ok I decided to pay for Pro version hoping it work as well as developer said in description. I immediately regret for that because the app just doesn’t work as described. Every time my toddler turn up volume then the app is resetting to its original setting. This is just a scam-app..Version: 1.0.2
✓ Doesn’t work with Apple Family SharingHad to purchase twice.Version: 1.0.2
✓ Only works for a little whilePaid for the app thinking this would finally bring sanity to our house. Set it to never expire, set a pin... within minutes it loses its setting and is back up to 100% volume again. Wish I could get a refund as it does NOT work as advertised..Version: 1.0.2
✓ FraudI wish I could get my money back , app doesn’t work my child is still able to increase volume on her iPad . Need to report app.Version: 1.0.2
✓ Does not workI set the volume at 40% and chose the option to expire-never and it does not work it goes back to the normal setting my son has it at 100% loud. It is not doing what is said and I paid control volume..Version: 1.0.2
✓ Don’t get this app!!!I paid for the pro version but it keeps changing the limits from what I set at 40% and putting it back to 100%. Even when I select the ‘never’ to change the limit!!!!! Don’t waste your money!!!.Version: 1.0.2
✓ Not happy with this productI have to enable the “Never” turn off option every day for it to work. The “Never” turn off option is really “24 hours” so way have a “Never” option? What a scam, I’m still looking for a permanent solution to this problem..Version: 1.0.2
✓ Probably not the app developers faultThis looks exactly like what I wanted to find. As many others have said, I was looking to get an app that limits the volume of an iPad that belongs to my special needs child. Purchased the pro version to get rid of the 5 minute limit and a few moments later, I come to realize it does not work if it is closed out in the background. Unfortunate. But the real problem here is Apple. They have devices that can do everything, but no reliable way to limit the volume from the speakers on them. It’s a serious failure of imagination from one of the most inventive companies on the planet..Version: 1.0.2
✓ Don’t buy. Does not workDoes not work. I want refund.Version: 1.0.2
✓ High hopes, sighVolume can still be raised doe a second or two before it returns to the set level. So now my son with autism just yo-yos the sound. Also, I paid for the pro version and the next day it was telling me to pay again and the restore purchase button didn’t work..Version: 1.0.2
✓ Sucks doesn’t workThis app is I purchased and volume still goes up asks every day for reset… I want a refund..Version: 1.0.2
✓ Works some of timeI was looking for a limit app and found this. Reviews made it seem like a dream and for most part it is. However I always have to verify it works or hadn't reset to a 100% level every time because for no rhyme or reason the limit becomes disabled. I've used the pin lock and taken it off as well - but still somehow becomes disengaged. If the app could guarantee it's active 100% of the time when it having to check i could improve my rating..Version: 1.0.2
✓ Worked fine for a day.This app is so needed by every parent. I wish the developers fix the issue all of us are facing, even though I put the app on 40% volume limit and turn on “NEVER” it still doesn’t do what it’s designed to do..Version: 1.0.2
✓ I paid for premium and got ten minutesNever lasts long.Version: 1.0.2
✓ Doesn’t work as expectedI expected this app to run in the background, but if you close all of the apps the volume can still be set at 100%. Also, it would be good to have a feature to prevent others from uninstalling the app or at least don’t have any desktop icons. Have the app only accessible from the settings menu..Version: 1.0.2
✓ Doesn’t work!App still lets you raise the volume to max 100% and may slowly goes back down…when it feels like working at all..Version: 1.0.2
✓ Please fixThe Auto Off set to “Never” setting resets everyday instead of staying at the limit chosen. I paid 4.99 just to have that feature and it doesn’t work as it should. Fix it and you get the other 3 stars for sure. IPad 7th generation..Version: 1.0.2
✓ Control Volume appDoes not work after 5 mins.Version: 1.0.2
✓ Waste of money! Does not work!I don't very often write reviews, but this had to be shared! I paid for the pro version, it doesn't work, I'm still listening to my son on the iPad at full volume at 3am. Not impressed. Don't waste your money..Version: 1.0.2
✓ SERIOUSLY FIX THE ISSUE!!! OVER IT!!!I NEVER write on app reviews but this is by far the most upsetting app I have used yet. I set the timer, set the volume and lock it so my son can stop blasting the volume. But noooooo, somehow this app shuts off everything and my son is back to blasting the volume again. WHY?! Why, have a timer on it if it’s not going to function properly!? why have a volume setting if it just keeps going back to 100%?!! Paid like what $5 for something that DOESN'T work. Great idea, could be useful really...but can you guys actually allow it to work! FIX THE PROBLEM!!! It’s the most annoying and upsetting thing to deal with..Version: 1.0.2
✓ Terrible, the kids can close the app and make it useless.There’s no point in paying $5 if the kids can turn off the app by themselves, does not auto start when you turn the device on. If your child is smart, they will figure it out. Same issue of having to yell about lowering the volume every minute. Waste of money..Version: 1.0.2
✓ App constantly resets to 100% volume...This app constantly resets to 100% volume even after you purchase the pro version and change the settings so that it wouldn’t do that. Very unfortunate, and I would not recommend this app at all..Version: 1.0.2
✓ Has potentialOne must keep the app running in the background... if the child swipes it off it turns off.. there needs to be a safety to keep it from happening.. I also purchased the remote feature for this and that does not work at all.. this app must be open and on the screen for it to work remotely... what’s the point.. my kid is playing a game or watching a video and I feel they turned the ipad up too much so I go to turn it down, what do I do? Say open the lock app so I can control it? Uh?? Doesn’t make sense....Version: 1.0.2
✓ TerribleI downloaded this for my 6 y/o sister with special needs because i let her use my ipad pro since her new one hasn't been delivered yet. but the thing is, my ipad is SUPER loud. she always turns it up to max volume and i thought this app would help. i did not purchase the full version because i don't have my own money for this. it didn't work and i'm pretty sure it wouldn't work either way because other people have purchased the pro version and said it hasn't worked. she was trying to watch something on netflix and she turned the volume up all the way and it didn't even work! i instantly deleted this app, and am now writing this review..Version: 1.0.2
✓ Good app, when it’s workingPurchased and activated the premium version and it seems to be good, until it decides to revert back to full volume randomly, even though we have it set to never. Please help us resolve the problem..Version: 1.0.2
✓ 5 minutes for unpaid versionThis app requires permission to your mic and monitors when the volume is turned up then turns it down. Super invasive and only a 5 minute version for free. Should be listed As a paid app. If you have an iPhone just install guided access and turn off the volume feature or touch feature problem solved good luck!.Version: 1.0.2
✓ Doesn’t work, waste of moneyThis was for my children's devices. Bought the pro version. When I set the limit it works for a few hours then stops. When I try to reset it it will not back up the pro version. A total waste of money..Version: 1.0.2
✓ Not workingYeah it’ll set the volume to what you want it to but all my kid has to do is go into the app she’s using and turn the volume up there! Total waste of 7 bucks!.Version: 1.0.2
✓ Worst, misleading, money Rippers, App DONOT work at allI bought it in the morning to help me. It haven’t worked for once STUPIDLY MISLEADING!!! How can I get my money back???.Version: 1.0.2
✓ Shuts off when app is closedI got this to limit the volume on my son’s iPad because he will have it at 100% volume all the time! Even though there is a pin to unlock the app and I can choose how long to limit the volume, it isn’t very useful when all my son has to do is close out the app (swiping the app up to close it out) and it SHUTS OFF the limits I set!! And trust me he figured out that little loophole within minutes of me setting it up!.Version: 1.0.2
✓ Waste of money!I purchased the app to stop my special needs autistic son from blasting the volume accidentally from the Bluetooth speaker that has volume controls on it, he carries it around up to his ear from the time he wakes up until he goes to bed. The app worked perfectly for about 20 minutes after I purchased the pro version, limiting the volume on the Bluetooth speaker and then it stopped and as long as the app was enabled it wouldn’t allow the music to play through the Bluetooth speaker anymore..Version: 1.0.2
✓ Very much needed- please fix the issueThis app is so very much needed for my special needs son who constantly blasts the volume on his iPad at 100% and holds it directly up to his ear. I’m forever asking him to turn it back down and taking the device away for periods of time to get him to stop. I was beyond excited to find this app to help protect his hearing and paid for the premium version so that hopefully it would be constantly on. However, it stops working seemingly within an hour or two of turning it on even though the app is still up and running in the background and says it’s on. I also think it doesn’t work with some apps altogether. I’m also concerned that if he wants to he can simply exit the volume control app to turn it off even though I’ve password protected it so that he can’t turn it off. Very frustrating. Can you please please fix the issue? This is so much needed..Version: 1.0.2
✓ Only works sometimesI really had high hopes for this to control the sound in YouTube kids but it only works sometimes. I paid for the pro version and it worked for a few days at keeping the volume where I set it but now it only stays for a few mins then goes back to full volume. Don’t waste your money..Version: 1.0.2
✓ Needs resetting every dayEvery day I have to reset the volume limit again! Waste of money.Version: 1.0.2
✓ Don’t waste your moneyAlways have to set up . After every lock the app is going to default settings.Version: 1.0.2
✓ RubbishReset timers are stupid and why should I pay for something that should be free (and is on all other app stores).Version: 1.0.2
✓ Takes your money then doesn't workIt worked once and then overnight it logged me out and now when I try to redone load the purchase it won't work so I'm left with just the 5 min setting which is useless..Version: 1.0.2
✓ Good when it’s working but…It works great, for a period, but then needs to be restarted. It just won’t stay on continuously. Can this PLEASE be fixed??.Version: 1.0.2
✓ Super disappointedI bought this for my daughters tablet and it works for maybe five minutes and then turns itself off no matter what I set it to. I paid for the pro version and it doesn’t work! Don’t waste your time and money.Version: 1.0.2
✓ Works sometimesI paid for this app expecting great thins. It stops working whenever it’s wants. Then I must take the phone from my child, which of course, causes grief. I then have to reset everything and give it back, hoping for the best. I mean, it does work but only when it wants to. I’ll be looking at the other volume limiter apps because I need to be able to trust that the volume will not go to full blast when not expecting it or not at a good time. It’s too bad. Live and learn I guess..Version: 1.0.2
✓ Bad appBought the PRO VERSION and app don’t work right on IOS 14 Trash like to get a Fefund....Version: 1.0.2
✓ Keeps revertingYou set it up and then it randomly reverts back to full volume when my five year old uses it. Hoax.Version: 1.0.2
✓ Waste of moneyDoesn’t limit volume!! Waste of money! Bought for my autistic son, unfortunately doesn’t work, so he is still able to put volume to the max!.Version: 1.0.2
✓ Doesnt run in backgroundI realised why it wasnt working long time. If you close the app it doesnt run in background so it needs to stay open. I keep closing it so my child cant play with the settings. Please fix.Version: 1.0.2
✓ Doesn’t work with bluetooth.I get why it doesn’t work with bluetooth..because of the background noise monitor but wish there was an option to not monitor background noise and just set the volume limit. My 6 year olds’s bluetooth headset that they have to use with their iPad at school or daycare, has a volume limiter to 85dbm which is still too loud in my opinion so I like that this app lets me choose the limit myself. Unfortunately, my child uses Bluetooth with her iPad 85% of the time..Version: 1.0.2
✓ Not For Bluetooth DevicesI got this app with the expectation that it would help me prevent my headphones from accidentally blasting my ears out when my phone is in my pocket, or to remind me when my volume is too high. Turns out it only works with my device’s built-in speakers. Also, there’s delay between when the volume is increased past where the limiter is and will take about one second to adjust down. This would be a great app if you could include wireless compatibility for us headphone users..Version: 1.0.2
✓ Good app otherwise....We bought the premium version couple of moths a go. however worked ok for few days and it goes back to the full volume after sometime, even having set to a low volume limit and indicate a low volume when you re-check the setting. please fix the issue. otherwise it's a good app..Version: 1.0.2
✓ Garbage don’t buy itThis does nothing to control volume..Version: 1.0.2
✓ SAVE YOUR MONEYThis app is a waste of money. I purchased this app to control the volume because my grandson turns everything up at full volume on his iPad. Irritating that educational programs do not give parents the ability to override the volume controls on an iPad but that’s a story for another day. Or that Apple does not allow us to do this. If it’s there I have not been able to find it. But I digress. I purchased this app to allow me to modulate the volume and forget it. But it continually resets to full volume. And it appears as if when I go to the app as if I did not purchase it and when I click restore purchase it does nothing. How do I apply for a refund? Ha ha. Save your money..Version: 1.0.2
✓ Brought pro didn’t work can’t find how to refund waste of moneyBrought pro didn’t work can’t find how to refund waste of money.Version: 1.0.2
✓ Shouldn’t be available until bugs fixedNo matter what I did, volume kept increasing to full after 5mins. Even with pass lock on. Do not recommend.Version: 1.0.2
✓ Ripped OffUsed itunes card for the $4.99 pro version and it doesn’t work at all. When I go to the set volume limit section the app just shuts itself down. It will not save the volume limit. Tried to get a refund from apple and was rejected. I don’t know if the app needs to be updated by the developer or not, but do not waste your money on the pro version..Version: 1.0.2
✓ WasteMy son has autism and likes to listen to his iPad at 100% volume. We bought the pro version thinking it would set the volume. It didn’t last long. He can still turn it up to full volume. So it was a waste of money!.Version: 1.0.2
✓ Don’t waste your time. False advertising.It’s basically a timer volume control. There is a time limit on how long you can limit the volume with this app and it does not give you the option for unlimited time unless you pay for the premium version. It’s ridiculous it’s not a factory setting already included in these obscenely expensive devices. Don’t wast your time or your money..Version: 1.0.2
✓ Does nothingI would like a refund. Set the limit to 15% and added a passcode. Purchased the pro version. It does not lock the volume at all.Version: 1.0.2
✓ Does not work consistentlyI don’t know how this app manages to stay on apple platform with so many negative but true reviews. It works then resets itself to full volume even after manipulating the settings to never revert to original volume. I have a son who figured out how to blast the volume on KidsYoutube app. Beats the purpose of this app..Version: 1.0.2
✓ Pro version dosent work with ios 13I purchased the Pro version because with out full control the app is worthless! I have a 12yr old with Down Syndrom and he is definetly smarter than the app. The Pro version seems to work at first but the next day it reverts back to 100% volume again! If the Pro version is purchased it needs to work until you set it otherwise! It feels like a classic example of the developer not keeping up with the ios version updates or just not giving clear directions on how to use the app and the Pro version!.Version: 1.0.2
✓ Easily bypassedI use it to limit volume for my autistic child, but he has found a way to bypass the lock by swiping down you can still adjust the volume from the settings bar.Version: 1.0.2
✓ Frustrating, ineffectiveOk, I admit it, the problem may be that I am not working it properly. So where are the instructions? There aren’t any. You wouldn’t think you’d need any since there are very few functions to exercise, very few buttons to push. But here’s what happens: I successfully set the max volume at 50% and PIN protect it. It works great then I hand it to my Autistic daughter. Two minutes later it is playing at 95%..Version: 1.0.2
✓ Asking for passcodeI never opted for a passcode what the hell.Version: 1.0.2
✓ Can easily be disabled!With 1 single swipe, my mentally handicapped 4 year old can bypass this. Even with it turned on... if your kid swipes UP from the bottom of your phone to bring up the iPhones controls, and swipes the volume to max... it disables this app!!!!.Version: 1.0.2
✓ Worked great for a whileThis worked great for the first few months but recently it doesn’t limit the volume unless the app is open and in the foreground. This completely defeats the purpose..Version: 1.0.2
✓ Turns itself off after 5 minsOnly useful if you pay for it otherwise it turns off after 5 minutes :-(.Version: 1.0.2
✓ It works until your child discovers it!Purchased this three days ago for my 5 yo daughter’s iPad. She likes to crank up the volume to 100% despite numerous requests to “TURN IT DOWN, NOW!” Today was the first day she used he device since installation and she almost immediately realized something funny was going on with the volume. She’s savvy enough to know to close out apps to help the machine run better, and that’s precisely what she did in an effort to troubleshoot the problem. Once this app is closed, the volume is once again restored. I paid for the pro version… just wish there was a way to run this even after the app closes 😕.Version: 1.0.2
✓ Volume can still be changed with side buttonsThis app would be good but it can be turned off simply by pushing the volume buttons on the side of the iPAD. It also shuts off if you close the app. I paid for premium version but it still does not stop my son with special needs from blasting the volume and holding it up next to his ear..Version: 1.0.2
✓ Good idea, but it doesn’t workI paid the $5 for the “Pro” version, which is the only version that actually works. It frequently crashes in the background, and it does not even save your settings. When you go back into the app, you have to enter the pin, re-set up your options, and then start it again. 1) fix the crashes 2) even if it crashes, re-opening the app should immediately restore the settings. If I had it enabled, then it should enable automatically..Version: 1.0.2
✓ Does not support Bluetooth audioI was really excited to use this app especially iOS 14 got rid of volume limit. However, this app only works for the speakers, and doesn’t work if you use any Bluetooth connected devices like earphones..Version: 1.0.2
✓ Don’t buyThere is no app that can perform this function without the child’s ability to close the app and render it useless. Don’t spend your money or waste your time. Apple needs to fix this, they probably won’t. Like many other parents with special needs child, there is no fix, just find a different tablet. iPads are expensive and feature limited. This will be our last Apple product..Version: 1.0.2
✓ Do Not BuyI got this app to use for my special needs son who loves to max out the volume. I paid for the pro version so it would always be on. What a joke because he can adjust the limit himself. I am not able to use the pin function. Definitely do not recommend!.Version: 1.0.2
✓ CrapBought pro version and it doesn’t work. I want a refund..Version: 1.0.2
✓ Volume Limit ControlApplication works for a short period of time and then crashes I presume because the volume is then able to be turned up. Note I have paid version with unlimited time (supposedly)..Version: 1.0.2
✓ Works at a VERY basic levelThe app takes a second to kick in each time the volume is increased beyond the threshold. So the volume is allowed to increase before being reduced. This will be much more frustrating than simply being unable to increase volume beyond a threshold. Also, the app does not work when closed. A child that knows how to close apps can bypass the whole thing even without a pass code..Version: 1.0.2
✓ Totally Useless!Worked for a short while after paying for full version then it just stopped. No matter how many times you try the programme fails to limit the volume for more than a few seconds. There does not appear to be a solution for obtaining a refund. My advice: don’t waste your money the developer does not respond to messages by all accounts and just takes you money and F Y very much..Version: 1.0.2
✓ Pro doesn’t workPaid for the pro version and it never stays on. Very irritating and waste of $$$..Version: 1.0.2
✓ BewareThe App requests access to your microphone before you can use it, citing the need to measure background noise. I am suspicious of this claim..Version: 1.0
