Lumifish Timeline

Impossible to cancel the subscription

Once the app is installed and the subscription is activated, there seems to be no way to uninstall it or stop the payments. The cancellation process keeps redirecting me between the subscription settings and the app management page, but no cancellation option is available. I have been paying for months for a service I no longer use, on a website that is no longer active. I also contacted technical support, but they did not provide any concrete help or solution. Terrible experience. I do not recommend this app.

Bad

Outdated, unflexible.

horrible

They had a free version that filled the need. Although it was a pain in the behind to set up, it got the job done. Then without notice it stopped working. Me trying to figure out what has happened with the site only to discover that...nah...they just want to get paid for the app now. No warning, no notification..nothing. Tried contacting them in the beginning thinking there was a technical issue. Their service is even worse than the app

No Technical Support

Their app isn't working and when you email them, it says they are out of the office until August 26th.

Cant use a date before 2014...

TRASH

Cheap trash... you cant even change the color xD

Terrible

Trying to build a timeline using this app is complete pain in the butt. terribly frustrating. I give up.

limited mobile settings

embeded on the website

I added this app to get a history timeline and without any reason it just disappeared. I tried to recover it, and when I accessed the APPs, it wasn't even active. I lost all my content, without understanding why it stopped working.

horrible don't use

F*cking awful UI for website design. Colours don't even change when customising the timeline, and the options box when selecting colours goes off the screen which you can't drag back because it's fixed smh.

Doesn't work

Frustrating. Nothing seems to work. Why Wix offer these apps I have no idea!

it is not the best

there are a lot of bugs and a lot of irritating elements about this app. I cant even see all of the colors available for use. plus you have to put in a full date or it puts in the current date. there are only a few styles to choose from and is not very stylish. would not recommend at all.

won't let me remove the year

won't let me remove the year

Doesn't work

Really buggy but customer service is amazing!

Does not work

There are so many bugs - you can't save, the popup to change font and color doesn't show. Don't waste your time or money. Contacted support and no resolution.

Good but not great.

I think overall it is good, but I cannot customise the colours. For the bottom custom colours you cannot select ok, meaning they cannot be changed. Will be looking for an alternative app unfortunately.

Waste of time

Doesn't work - runs outside page borders. Can't be resized. Don't waste your time. Already told Lumifish support

Get away from this app - you cannot save changes!

Nice idea, but the programmer didn't tested his own work. You can't save your changes, because the OK field swipes out of the window. Even if your change the scream, you can't save new colors. Useless! No stars, if I could.

Doesn't work

Color Customization tab falls under the dropdown edit menu rendering this app useless.

Trash

Doesn't work, I can't edit it, and no one responds to questions or support.

Worst Editing Function EVER!

Tried Premium & still can't change event colours etc as the options slip below the line and you can't drag them up to click save - When you try to edit the colours the options slip below the frame on every option except the “App Border/line color” so you can’t click save for any of the colors or even tab or scroll down to do so. The entire editing suite is very flawed and useless!!

Poorly made - Don't waste your time with it

Most of the functions this app provides simply do not work, and you their is practically no sizing, So even after adding a few timestamps to the timeline it will not fit on the page, just going off to the side with no way of seeing it.

Very frustrating

I am having serious issues with the app. The date preference is not functioning correctly. I will enter a date into the system and the software will either revert it back to today's date or, it won't recognize the setting that's already in place. Such as our preference to only display the year. I have tried numerous times to refresh the software, exit Wix editor and reenter the software in hopes to stop the glitching, but it isn't working as described. The consistency of this issue and the fact that other Google reviews allude to the same issues, it is obvious that this is a glitch with the application. This is causing erroneous information to be on my website that is putting my integrity in jeopardy. I have tried to use the support function on my dashboard, but after drafting a detailed email and hitting send I was given an error message that my email could not be sent with no explanation.

Can't be edited to match site

This app can't be edited to match the branding of your website. Hopefully this review will save you some time!

Falls short

No ability to provide end date or item title. Updates are delayed. Colors can't be changed although it seems like you could.

TERRIBLE

This app is terrible it is outdated and you cant change the sizing of the event boarders. I find it difficult to navigate this app and when making edits its delayed. I would not recommend this app for timeline use.

I like the concept of the app. Though editing is tough

There is no way to change font size and style. Also, no way to shrink the circle or squares around the font. Makes it impossible to add the timeline on site without taking up the ENTIRE page.

Pathetic - For a timeline app, even the dates can't be added easily

Extremely disappointing.

Do not use, dose not work

you can not put dates and dose not save work, wasted time

Awful!

The app does not work! Every new entry lists backwards so to change this you go to settings and change the order 'oldest to newest' but it does not change anything and reverts to newest to oldest every time you go back to settings. Too bad because its exactly what I need! As you suggested I have cleared the browser caches and restarted everything it simply does not work! Why you cannot have a simple drag system for the positioning of each entry?

Best app for educational projects

Lumifish timeline is the most interesting app on the Wix platform that I have been using for over 5 years. It allows users to perform custom modifications of timeline boundaries, text style, font, colour, background colour, timeline line colour, etc. It allows two design schemes in the free version. The timeline can be used also with one photo on each post in the free version, and the limit of characters for each post is 160. The usability and functionality excused one downside that dates before 1 January 100 AD can not be entered. Ap allows a lot more possibilities in the paid version but I do not need it for now. The desktop and mobile versions work perfectly and it is a big contribution various to educational and cultural projects... Recommend!

Recenze

Nelze přejíždět a rolovat stránku přes tuto aplikaci.

Impossible...

Create an OK design for desktop, but it will make your mobile site impossible to navigate and the image will be a mess no matter what you try.

Good design but but poor usability

Free usage and timeline design are very good. However, the following issues have a significant impact on usability. ・When the mouse is above the timeline, it is impossible to scroll the page. ・It is not possible to disable the full-screen viewing of timeline images functionality. ・Too long page loading time I'll consider the purchase of the subscription if the above problems are solved.

Doesn't even worth a single star. Not even should be listed in Wix App Store...

Has more bugs than a cockroach bin. You enter your event date, it reverts into today's date without asking.. It arbitrarily changes the order and doesn't even allow you to reorder. And does this ordering WRONG!!! According to this code heap, Year 2009 comes BEFORE the year 2005. Good for trolling and joke, but not a good piece of software.

Added it to test, removed it, and now I have permanent popups when I open my website editor

background

how can u make the background transparant? like the example

Buggy

Can't get the app to display vertically. Display in the browser flickers and doesn't display quickly. Not very good at all.

Das geht besser

Auf den ersten Blick sieht der Zeitstrahl ganz gut aus. Allerdings nur auf dem eigenen Bildschirm. Leider passt sich das Design nicht wirklich an die Größe des Bildschirms an, sodass immer auf beiden Seiten etwas abgeschnitten wird.

Not great

Ran into a surprising and serious issue with when a coworker duplicated a site with this app. On the first site the app was upgraded to premium. One the second, duplicated site the timeline was not upgraded. Despite that, and the fact that they were two separate sites, the changes made to the second timeline overwrote the content of the timeline on the first site. There is no option in the settings to manage multiple timelines, so it was clearly a bug. When I reached out they said they could not restore the oringal timeline from a backup. Even though this is the only dynamic timeline, its lackluster looks, tedious setup, and the range of issues you can read about in the reviews make it not worth adding to your site.

Widget Didn’t Load

was working fine until I checked yesterday.... 500 internal server error..

500 Internal Server Error

It has been a while since the widget is not working. The site has been down for a considerable length of time and displays an ugly 500 Internal Server Error wherever the timeline is used. Could you please fix the problem? Thanks Giorgio

Live site often down

The widget connects to their live site where your timeline data is stored so won't work without this connection. Twice now the site has been down for a considerable length of time and displays an ugly 404 error wherever the timeline is used. Come on Lumfish - get a grip - it's not hard to sort out the bugs listed in these reviews and after all we are paying for this!

Don waste your time

Crashes and loses all info. NO CUSTOMER SERVICE!! I should have read the reviews before using this app.

Error message and creator publicly stated they will not fix

After spending hours on my timeline for my upcoming book releases all the way to 2024, the Lumish Timeline went offline with a 505 error. It will not let you contact the creator, despite saying "click here" to do so. After browsing the internet for the cause of the outage, the creator has responded to many complaints with "clear your browser cookies" and "turn off ad-blocker." Neither of these have worked and it has been made clear by other users. The creator continues to ignore this, repeating the same response. Clearly, the creator has no intention of fixing this issue or bringing this app back online. I do not recommend the use of their services for the lack of customer service and the lack of concern they show toward their users who have these websites to make a living. Update: Another example of the poor customer service is their response to this review. God forbid they take responsibility.

Not loading please fix

All info lost!

I have this timeline added on my website, suddenly in the editor mode, all info are lost!!! The info remains in the published website, now I don't dare sync until i spend time (lotsa) to add again in the timeline.

needs improvement

I tried this Ap and it is a good idea. but it did not work so well but it could be so much better. look at the news feed ap. please. thank you.

Limited editing options

Is it possible to not show the date at all? Or put text instead of the date? I want to create a timeline but not with specific dates...

Tech Documentation

Where is your technical documentation for the Timeline Wix app?! I am trying to add an image that I uploaded to an event on my timeline but it is no allowing me to select amongst the different images. I need help!
