Great concept, but doesn't work – Marco Polo: Find Your Phone by Shouting MARCO! Review

I've never given an app one star before, but I have to this time. Don't get me wrong. The whole idea behind this app is fantastic, and from the description, it looks like you're getting something really useful. After all, shouting to find a misplaced phone is a lot easier than calling it or launching find my iPhone from a computer to try and locate it. The idea behind this app deserves five stars, but the execution of this idea is very very poor. In short, it worked as long as my mouth was almost right on top of the iPhone, but when I walked a few feet away and shouted, it couldn't hear me at all, and it didn't respond. I guess this app can help you find your iPhone if you place it a few inches away and forget where you set it down, but if it's anywhere more than 2 feet away from you, you won't be able to find it. The app simply doesn't work the way it supposed to. Perhaps, a microphone sensitivity setting may be all that is needed to improve the apps listening range, but at present, that feature is not available. So, the app cannot be adjusted so that it can hear you from more than a few feet away, making it perfectly useless. Right now, don't waste your money.wait until the next update.
