  • Stale
    Update for current version: crashes immediately on pressing Play. iPad Air, iOS 7.0.4. Yet another matching, popping game with less options than many. That's not it's biggest problem though: lives take way too long to regenerate versus how long it takes to play a round, and every round costs a life even if you play perfectly until the timer expired. Don't want to wait? The other option is to buy them. $1.99 for 10? They get a little cheaper in bulk, $5.99 for 30 but it's still a straight-up rip off. For $5.99 you can buy terrific games that let you play forever, not just 30 times before spending more money! Avoid. There are better games of this genre that aren't going to bleed your wallet.

  • Doesn't work with AppleTV subscription
    Although I have a subscription through iTunes on my AppleTV, the iPhone app refuses to acknowledge it. Hulu is OK, but I'm not paying for two subscriptions. One should work across devices.

  • Completely borked
    Sending mass texts to your customers about your terrific app that doesn't work? Not the path to success. Even a tiny bit of QA would have revealed the app was broken. Now you look silly and you've wasted peoples time. That gets remembered when renewal time rolls around.

  • Not impressed
    I’ve been using Flesky since it became available. The cons: 1. The claim is that the auto-correct/predictive logic is so good that you don’t even have to look at what you’re typing. That’s not been my experience. The autocorrect is frequently worse than iOS 8 stock, and never better. 2. The layout of the keys makes it harder to type on. The backspace key is in a ridiculous position, given that we (iOS users) are all used to it being someplace entirely different. 3. If I manually select a punctuation mark, like a comma, it insists on inserting two of them (bug). 4. It’s occasionally inconsistent. More than once I’ve been stuck with no keyboard (just a blank space) and had to disable Fleshy and re-enable it, or reboot, to fix it. I’m unsure if this is a Flesky issue or an iOS 8 issue, but the other keyboards I’ve used (Swiftkey and Swype) have not done it. Ending on a positive, the gestures to delete and select corrections are great. I like being able to do a whole-word delete with a single stroke, and switching between predictive choices is easy with the swipe. But the cool gestures aren’t enough to make up for the bad layout, the fact that it performs no better than the stock keyboard (for me), or the inconsistent behavior.

  • Some of the worst software I've ever used
    This is one of the worst pieces of software I have ever used. Buggy, frequently unresponsive, slow. Honestly, they'd be better off just focusing on making their website fully mobile-functional, since they clearly don't have the programming skills to put out a dedicated mobile application.
