Was a great app..

Was my go to tuning app but for the longest time now it won’t even open across multiple iOS devices.

App not working in latest iOS

Fantastic app, have used it to tune the band to competition success several times.
However, it’s just crashing as soon as it opens in the latest iOS version.
Any forthcoming updates due?
