iPhone App reviews Part 1

Posted by James on January 22, 2011 in Technology |

This series of blog posts aims to reveal how stupid some people really are and how developers can probably make some easy cash! If these reviews were written with just one brain cell then they would probably realise what they had just achieved was something quite special.

Two reviews for a iWarmer. A paid app worth £1.19 at the time of writing, which claims to turn your iPhone into a hand warmer using a variety of warm objects such as boiling water, a volcano, the sun and a bonfire amongst others.

Review 1: “This is a load of rubbish don’t buy it seriously it doesn’t work!!!!!”

Review 2: “This app works like $h!t. Really bad and it doesn’t work”

Were these two reviewers honestly expecting the phone to develop a magical heating element by installing this app? The only time my iPhone gets warm is when the phone is charging over night or if I’m holding it for a long time.

You have to admire the developer in this case. They put time and effort into making an app which was clearly never going to do what it claimed and had the cheek (or ambition) to sell it for £1.19. Hats off to them.
