A Developer of Aggravation – Document Manager + Video Player Review

My trusty old iPhone 4 has been collecting dust for a while & consequently has an older version of this app which works fine. I downloaded the newest version of this app to use on my iPhone 6. Not only does this version have a constant banner ad, but it also has the loud pop-up video ads. It is difficult to state the frequency of the video ads, sometimes it runs when a particular button is pressed, sometimes it doesn't. It is often enough to make me NOT want to use the app. I have no problem with a Dev using ads (or in app purchase) to make money. I do not believe it is reasonable to be assaulted with both types of ads at the same time. . In addition I think that Dev should list the fact that pop-up or banner ads have been added to version updates in the description area the update. There are descriptions about anything but the addition of these ads. When a Dev lists "performance improvements" and "bug fixes", I don't expect video ads/banner ads in lieu of or in addition to the "fix". I would consider paying for the removal of the ads, however even the iap's are unclear. The "in app purchase" lists the following: - InApp Sale Editor $.99 - Remove Advertisement $.99 I am uncertain if this new version has hobbled another function that the older version had or what. The decision to delete BOTH apps came when I hit the "info" button and was presented with a video ad. Devs -- here is a clue: If your customer takes the initiative to find out more Information about you or your app, don't present them with a video ad instead. If you think it's reasonable that the older version of the app works better than the new version - by all means download this app. Just know that you are supporting a Dev who thinks that's good policy. I don't. One star rating because the level of frustration & frequency of video ads caused this app to be unusable for me.
