Crashing

When i touch to load the aim points drawing, it rotates my screen, but once i try to go back to the previous screen it doesn't rotate back like it should. If i click start over it will work properly though and go back to portrait orientation.

WXGA (1280 x 800) not included

No use to me. Good side, only wasted $.99
