What Users Love About the App

“I have been using Speare for at least a year or more for sermon prep. During the week I put my notes in it and at the end of the week I organize my notes and then it spits out an outline. It is very valuable to me.”

“I saw the Speare App pop up on my timeline and I downloaded the trial version. It didn’t take long for me to see this powerful tool in action and realize this was a winner! I was sold.”

“This app allowed me to finish a 90+ page thesis for my Bachelor’s program and I continue to use it to organize my sermons, homework assignments, term papers for my other classes, notes from meetings, to do lists, blogs, and soon to be my autobiography.”

“Kind of interesting – sort of a blend between storyboarding and Kanban. The dictation/email feature is very appealing to someone who used to dictate everything.”

“This is one of the most brilliant tools of the 21st Century for writers! Thank you Speare!”

What Users Dislike About the App

“The app doesn’t allow for SMS or voice dictation as it says it can do. Customer Support is unresponsive.”

“Had I known they neither provide paid users with all features they promote to encourage buying their service, not any customer support, I wouldn’t have moved beyond the 14-day trial.”

“Update information across platforms – make clear the difference between “previous version” and whatever version you’re charging for currently.”

“You need customer service if people are inputting their valuable writings on this platform – smart device capability. It’s 2020 and this all seems outdated here with this company yet you’re still charging to use the platform.”

“They don’t seem to update neither their blog site, nor their Instagram account. They have a FB page but they don’t use it for new updates announcements…and they don’t have any twitter account.”
