Kinda scummy if you ask me

"I downloaded this app to translate web pages on safari, when I opened the app to set it up it said my trail had expired, keep in mind I just downloaded the app for the first time and haven’t used it yet. This makes no sense! I couldn’t care if your app was good or the best there is, you can’t charge people to try it, plus I shouldn’t have to let this app have my payment information to try it."
