Even better than v1

Not much to say other that it is even better than the original. I love it. Now you can even use your own login. Perfect!

My granddaughter loves it

My son was the developer

I love the idea, but the app is not working

No planes - only parsing errors, retries and info that the api is overloaded.

Dead app

Not sure why Jacob dropped the ball on this, but it hasn’t worked in months. Sad, because it’s a super cute app

Response from developer

Hey KnowWonder, really sorry about this. I have good news - the app is now back up and running, and improved in several ways! Please give it another try and see if your experience is better this time around :)

Gut gemeint

Server überlastet… Nicht zu gebrauchen.
