### 3/5 — Like it but buggy

*2026-01-20*

I bought the app, but it keeps “forgetting” that and asking me to rebuy. Can you please fix the app in this regard ?

**Developer response:** Hi there — thanks for your support and for letting us know about this issue. You definitely shouldn’t be asked to purchase again after buying the app.

This is usually related to the App Store not syncing purchases correctly on the device. A quick fix that works in most cases is:

• Make sure you're signed into the same Apple ID used for the purchase
• Tap the “Restore Purchases” option in the app
• Force close and reopen the app, or restart your device

We’ve also made recent updates aimed at improving purchase syncing — if you haven’t already, please make sure you’re on the latest version of the app.

If you’re still seeing the issue after updating, please reach out to us directly at support@tonykorologos.com
 and we’ll make sure your purchase is restored right away.

Really appreciate you flagging this — it helps us improve the experience for everyone.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.0.9 — 2026-03-03

Notifications are now live in Alta Guide. You can now receive mountain, weather, and road status updates and quickly manage alert preferences from the new Notifications item in the main menu. This makes it much easier to control what you’re alerted about and when, without digging through settings.

We also delivered a major map UX upgrade. Map controls are now organized in a cleaner Map Tools panel with better access to 3D/Flat mode, pitch, base map selection, layer visibility, and pin actions. The updated layout reduces clutter while keeping high-use options close at hand.

Finally, we polished navigation and readability across the app. Key screens were refreshed, duplicated menu clutter was reduced, and overall flow is more consistent from screen to screen. This release is focused on speed, clarity, and better on-mountain decision support.
