If I am specific about what I want the app to do, in this forum or on Reddit, I don't get replies of any kind, but separate posts (without rephrase echoing the same thing) that are less specific don't get replies of any kind.

Well, if you had more than one source for reviews (one of them being more professional than the Google Play Store alone) then wouldn't positive reviews by a more professional source be a positive sign that is more reliable than just the user reviews by themselves?

Well, I've been screwed by apps from the Google Play Store that just didn't work well, or didn't work at all. But the reviews on JUST the Google Play Store by themselves were pretty much all positive ones. Not to mention, the free features may work perfectly well, but that doesn't mean the...

Not much else to say, just something that's relatively better than just the Google Play Store by itself, and maybe allows you to search by "purchase model" as in, one time purchase vs subscription (the latter being more common, but that doesn't mean a consumer shouldn't be able to find the ones...

Like if you wanted to self train to do simple math faster in your head. Ads are fine, but if one wants the ad-free version (because the game is good enough) I'd like something where the ad-free version is a one-time purchase, not a subscription.

Like you can buy another level or level pack for example and keep it, for as long as you have a compatible phone? When I try to use the reviews to gauge how good / bad a game is, often times the 2 to 4 star reviews will not only highlight a major flaw with the in-app purchases (costing too...

Another example is the falling blobs game where you have to match 3 or match 4. The actual EA Tetris just has a subscription option but not a one-time purchase of anything. Obviously it would only "last" as long as you actually had a compatible phone, then you'd have to get their later...

That would almost make sense to have that as default. The only trouble is that mine didn't always give me the notification icon to be able to select a USB mode every time. So I might have to close and reopen the notifications "scroll down window" just hoping it would magically show up this time...

It's okay if I have to unlock the phone to use the USB port for file transfer. After all, the phone doesn't "know" if I have anything that's sensitive or I just want to keep private for some reason. However, if I'm unlocking the phone while the USB cable is plugged in, it doesn't even show a...

That's actually better than what my previous service had. It didn't even have a user to user "support" page that was run by the actual site. Therefore, your only "hope" if you could call it that, was the automated chat bot that apparently wasn't even programmed to be able to read the text.

What would be an email service that does have an "open ticket" option? Or, perhaps the issue tracker allows both users (under moderation) AND support agents to reply? A support agent would be marked as such next to their title. Like Apple's user support page seems to work.

What about "open support ticket" types of things? Not one on one in real time, but it's reviewed and the support agent(s) give you a reply when they can?

I'm thinking of switching from another service, due to issues with mobile email that seem to happen no matter what app I use to access it. Without naming my previous service, it wasn't Gmail. The thing that makes me want to switch, is that it's not clear how to submit a tech support ticket for...

It wouldn't last forever, as I would someday get a newer phone that wasn't compatible with the older game, but until then, I'd be able to "keep" the in-app purchase. It could still be a free game, with ads, so I could try it out first. Not looking for specific recommendations unless you...

Not "they sent a message to me that I haven't replied to" that's not a bad thing in my case. I mean, when I've sent a message and that person doesn't reply, now and again, I get a reminder, with the same sound as a "message received" that says "Sent 2 days ago, follow up?" The answer is no. I...
