Store ratings include star-only taps from in-app prompts, which skew high. The peak and recent figures come only from people who wrote a review, which skews low. Compare each against itself: the drop is the signal, and a big gap between the two usually means heavy rating prompting is masking unhappy users.

Money Geab!

★ · v2.3.16 · Oct 10, 2026

If I could do ZERO stars I would. This app has never worked for me. It freezes up when I try to get in. I can’t cancel my subscription. I have emailed the mo cancel with no response.

Bad

★ · v2.3.15 · Oct 7, 2026

Terrible Advertisement. Makes you pay after asking you a bunch of personal questions. The affirmations are mid at best and out of all the hundreds of pictures it's all rich white girls.

Not free

★ · v2.3.15 · Oct 7, 2026

$7 a week is crazy. And to waste people’s time with the long questionnaire before stating that is even crazier. Not to mention all the personal data they’re collecting for free by doing this. Shame on y’all. Do the right thing and make people pay on the App Store before downloading.

Absolutely ridiculous.

★ · v2.3.15 · Oct 4, 2026

$40 a month for a glorified AI chatbot. The questionnaire given once you first download the app is extremely invasive and is the most thinly-veiled data grab I have ever seen. Once I got through that and found out that the developers are apparently allowing absolutely nobody to use their app for free right now, I immediately deleted it. I tried to find support that I could contact, but the Stella website is so shamelessly vibe-coded that there isn’t even a place to contact support. (I doubt I would be speaking to an actual person anyway.) This app is absolutely laughable. If you want to manifest quickly for free (without a free trial), grab a sheet of paper and just write affirmations. Don’t waste your time or your money on this spyware garbage - the developers clearly didn’t care enough to put any actual effort into it.

Don’t share personal info

★ · v2.3.15 · Oct 3, 2026

Why does a manifestation app need to know if I have children, where I live, and so many other personal details? Some of these questions feel completely unnecessary and way too invasive for the purpose of the app. I understand asking questions related to my goals or what I want to manifest, but asking for this level of personal information feels excessive and uncomfortable

In this economy?

★ · v2.3.15 · Oct 1, 2026

$336 a year for an app that isn’t a guarantee! You can literally manifest for free by just doing what this app does yourself

Nosey intrusive interrogation

★ · v2.3.13 · Sep 28, 2026

Awful. The app just interrogated me for 20 minutes and then asked for money. It felt like data miners were just prodding through my life without providing any value, without showing proof of concept, without demonstrating what it would do with that highly personal information, without giving any inclination of the actual service that is behind the paywall. Just being hammered with 100 nosey, entitled questions before being shaken down for money. I never leave reviews but I had to for this one. Awful app

Scam

★ · v2.3.13 · Sep 26, 2026

They charged me even tho I deleted the app and never subscribed

i’m not paying.!

★ · v2.3.12 · Sep 23, 2026

I shouldn’t have to pay to use a app to help me after telling everything making me pay just to use it it’s crazy to me

Paid app

★ · v2.3.12 · Sep 22, 2026

Don't get unless you're ready to pay a subscription to access literally anything and everything in the app

seems like it’s good

★★ · v2.3.12 · Sep 22, 2026

i dont have any money to spend on this app and it requires a subscription?? bruh

Can’t even try it

★ · v2.3.12 · Sep 20, 2026

Not letting people try the app for once and asking for money is wild . I’ve heard so many good reviews about this app that’s why I downloaded but after I gave the entire information about myself the app started demanding money which is really irritating and annoying that’s why I’m deleting this app

i can’t pay

★★ · v2.3.12 · Sep 18, 2026

Okay, maybe this is mean, but I downloaded this app to be able to live the life I’ve always dreamed of, and I answered all of the questions just to have to subscribe. The problem? I have no way of paying on my own, and my mom is already struggling, so we can’t pay :(

Okay but

★★ · v2.3.11 · Sep 17, 2026

Lack of diversity with the images chosen. It’s mostly slim blonde white women so it’s hard to pretend it’s “me”

Ugh

★ · v2.3.10 · Sep 15, 2026

Asking for very personal information, then hitting you with the fact you need to pay to use the app feels very strange. It feels like entrapment and gets you excited for the fact it’s free then takes it back. Please don’t do this

money hungry company as usual

★ · v2.3.10 · Sep 15, 2026

you have to start a free trial to use the app , they make you go through all the questions then hit you with a paywall

bot reviews or something

★ · v2.3.9 · Sep 11, 2026

seriously you've lost ur damn mind if you think im giving you my credit card info to use your FREE APP. its honestly predatory to call it free in ur ads and then have it like this. also SEVEN DOLLARS? typa greed they talk about in the bible tf

too expensive and not free version

★ · v2.3.9 · Sep 10, 2026

i think the app is too expensive 7 bucks per week is insane , i understand the complexity of deploying an app like this but should have at least a free/ lower cost version or a year subscription that’s cheaper. so sad

Cute app, hopefully one day it’s free to use.

★★ · v2.3.9 · Sep 10, 2026

I enjoyed it thoroughly until I realized you HAVE to pay to use it. I understand this is a new app and maybe they have to build funds to keep it working properly. Butttt, I can also use any other manifestation app for free and get the same thing out of it. Just not for me.

waste

★ · v2.3.9 · Sep 10, 2026

you literally have to pay $6.99 A WEEK just to even get into the app. waste of time.

pay to use

★ · v2.3.9 · Sep 10, 2026

makes you answer tons of questions then won't let you use it if you don't do a free trial don't download

asking for so much while doing so little

★ · v2.3.8 · Sep 9, 2026

I got this app to see what it does and how it is. while I enjoy some features of the app it focuses on such small things the broader manifestation doesn’t feel fully there even when I try to fix it. I was left disappointed and frustrated rather than happy and calm. I can do what this app does for free.

Weird

★★ · v2.3.8 · Sep 9, 2026

I liked the beginning of it until I had to pay for it and now I’m really hurt I wanted to change my life manifest a new one and I can’t even try to manifest it

Don’t get you just have to pay

★ · v2.3.8 · Sep 8, 2026

waste of time

cursed.

★ · v2.3.8 · Sep 7, 2026

my friend casted a love spell on her ex to make her love her again. my other friend had a dream about her casting the spell and something bad happened. the dream was BEFORE she casted the spell. in my house. its a curse.
