Terrible Buggy Product, Scammy and Greedy Team

I rarely leave reviews, but I’m genuinely disappointed by my experience with AppMySite’s approach. As an early adopter in 2023, I purchased their AppSumo deal, expecting access to all essential features that were clearly advertised—like in-app purchases, app store publishing, and push notifications. These were explicitly mentioned as part of the deal, and I even received written confirmation. Now, these core features are locked behind additional fees—$29/month for in-app purchases, plus extra costs for push notifications and app store publishing.

When I raised these concerns, AppMySite replied with a general statement about "reserving the right to adjust offerings." While I understand the need for adjustments, this seems to go beyond minor changes and instead removes key advertised features entirely. In most cases, retroactively changing the terms of a purchase in this way can be considered misleading or even a breach of consumer trust.

The reality is that the AppSumo deal provides access only to their PRO plan, which lacks several essential features, leaving the product limited unless you pay for further upgrades. This was not clear upfront, and these add-ons make the app far more costly than expected.

AppMySite’s approach has left me with a product that doesn’t meet the expectations set at purchase. Until these issues are resolved, I’d recommend caution to potential buyers.

Hi there,

Thank you for reaching out and leaving us a review. We appreciate your valuable feedback.

Just to clarify, features like push notifications and app store publishing are available on all AppSumo deals. We apologize if there hasn’t been enough clarity on this matter.

The add-ons you’re seeing are for features we introduced later, such as in-app purchases, rich push notifications, etc. These features involve a significant ongoing cost, which is why it’s not feasible for us to include them in a lifetime plan.

We have been very transparent about the fact that our AppSumo plans are equivalent to our Pro plan. While we understand you’re not completely satisfied with the Pro plan offerings, they do include essential functionality like app store submission, push notifications, etc.

Since our deal has been available on AppSumo, we’ve consistently introduced features available to Sumolings. Some of these include –

- Web to app product
- Custom app product
- Advanced app icon and splash screen creator
- Bottom bar builder
- App menu builder
- Support for custom post types and taxonomies

This time, we’ve also introduced new tiers that include our Agency white-label product. It’s available from tier 6 onwards.

We understand our deal may not have met your expectations. We’ll try our best to keep improving our product. If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to reach out again. We’re here to address any issues you’re facing with our product.
