Box Box Club: Formula Widgets

This app has been great since the beginning. Although at first it was an all free app. I understand its growth and what comes with it. “$$$$$”I only wished that this company would show its appreciation to those early supporters of the app such as myself, by grandfathering in with maybe a one time fee versus a yearly subscription. I’ve experienced this in other apps such as “MyRadar” and have had no problem supporting further by buying stake in the company to further its progress. This cash grab idea keeps me from spending one cent on this app. Not because of the capitalization of the growing sport but the lack of appreciation to those who have supported this app in its early stages and also spreading word of mouth about them to have many more users. Us early users are a part of the reason you are where you are and to place us in the same category as those who didn’t believe in the app or are new to the sport feels like a slap to the face.

Did NOT warn early enough for population in certain time zones and did not send enough reminders about the time change of the race. Missed half the race due to the lack of multiple reminders of the time change. Sends too many pointless notifications and not enough actually beneficial or important reminders. The fact you have to search for the notification setting to shut off these AD notifications instead of them being in the “bell” itself is annoying considering there are several rotating ADs on each page you can not “X” out of. Ridiculous. ***Edit: after the developer response, reached out to them via email after the semi unprofessional response below and upon emailing back they did not apologize or edit their response to be more appropriate given their previous responses being civil and genuine. Disappointed.

So far I’ve found three apps offering F1 widgets. Box Box is by far the best one of them. Box Box’s widget aesthetic speaks to me, notifications and great and Lock Screen widgets are very legible and cute. I would love if Home Screen widgets matched the system ones. All my widgets are dark gray and I can’t make Box Box to look similar. It’s always black. Black is cute, but I’d prefer if there was an option for a color change. But that’s not THAT important. One word of criticism: spamming me with notifications to review Box Box is an awful thing to do. A modern, classy iOS app should never do that. I hope it was a one time thing, otherwise I’ll come back to complain even more and lower the score. I hold indie devs to a higher standard than say Gameloft. There is a reason why I don’t use their products. Be better, devs. To end on a positive note: thank you for making one of the most useful iOS apps I have on my iPhone. I love it.
