Latest reviews of MaxEmail Fax - Scan, Sign, Send & Receive Faxes app for iPhone and iPad
Finally a fax service that is completely affordable, user friendly, and intuitive. MaxEmail, just killed the Fax machine forever. Well done. The iPhone is now complete.
Ive had MaxEmail for ~5 years and its great...affordable, easy to use, & accessible. iPhone app makes it even more mobile - youll never need a fax machine again. Nice integration on sending PDFs with open in as well as being able to take photos.
I have been a maxemail customer for years. I love their fax to email service. This app only makes their service that much better. I have been hoping they would create an app and finally they did. THANK YOU! The only suggestion I have is to create a version that is compatible with the iPad. The iPhone version works on the iPad, but its small and harder to use.
After going through all of the motions of downloading you find out you have to sign up for a free trial. (after the app store says its free). After signing up for the 30 day free trial it asks for a credit card number. So its NEITHER free or a free trial. I deleted it immediately after because I was disappointed that it was suppose to be free and I wasted an hour of my time on it.
Greezy Festerpuss, get real. You complain that the service isnt free, when it says that quite plainly on the itunes store: the very first line says "requires any MaxEmail subscription, including free trial." What is misleading about that?! Thats an unfair and unreasonable reason to give the app a low rating. Like many, many apps, the app is free but the subscription service itself is not, beyond the free trial. As a subscriber of several years, its a great value but like most things worthwhile it is not free.
