Can’t get to AARP App

Keeps cycling between AARP Now, and OPEN. When I hit OPEN, it goes back to AARP Now. Frustrating.

Not iPad Enabled

App is definitely not iPad enabled which is ludicrous. Attempting to use app on an iPad is an exercise in frustration. Suggest updating this to both iPhone/iPad ASAP.

Problems loading games ads never stop

I have this app on my android phone and it works beautifully there. On my iPad I get endless ads while opening games and the games will not open. It seems to be stuck in a loop.
The other aspects of app seem functional. The informational articles can’t be beat.

Nice app, but no longer updates on my iPad

Disappointing that developers keep “improving” apps even when they’ve worked well all along, and suddenly no longer works on my iPad without the required update. Seniors don’t need ALL the bells and whistles to be happy with an app designed for the over 55 crowd.
